you are very special to have been chosen like that

Did you find she helps with your battle?

Yes, I did/do. She's not massively affectionate, in that she doesn't like being held too close, but she always comes looking for me and wherever I am in the house or garden, she'll be there right next to me, squeaking away (she can't miaow) and keeping me company. She is a constant little friend.

I love her to bits

Wife is as jealous as fk, mind...

[ali_kat]

Good

(That's to you both )

Consider adopting a kitten from a shelter too, they're full at the moment

I'm please Dora is of help, they're little angels when it comes to that battle (as are dogs)

As some of you might be aware, we had our boy PTS on Friday.
Probably the worst day of my life so far.

House feels incredibly cold and empty.
In process of moving house so not an ideal time to get another but...
Having a look at this little guy next weekend

sad news on your old friend

The little chappie about looks lovely though

Oh don't worry, Dora is one of two ferals that we provide board and lodgings for, the other one is Madge (she likes to nibble me)



Then there's Bert, an abandoned ginger lad who wondered in one day, starving, and never left.



Bert likes to hump things.

And here's the three of them together

Smudge here got more attention than the new born baby at the weekend.

[tribbles]

My two new ones are settling in nicely:



Although the older one is spending a lot of time outdoors now, and only really comes in to eat. Hopefully he'll get over it...

You can, just make sure you don't leave visible bruises or the teachers will get wise and next you know, your a "bully"

Can I ask a cat question of the Cat Collective? Recently our eldest (17yo) has started making a whinging noise when she doesn't know where you are. As soon as you call her or she spots you, she stops.

Is she going a bit mental, or is this deemed acceptable behaviour? She's quite a needy cat at the best of times, but this is new.

[ali_kat]

You're probanly better off asking in a new thread so Bex will see it easily, but I think she needs to see a Vet & have a check up

It's more likely she's getting a bit senile.

This is Dora, a feral cat that moved in with me a few months ago when I was suffering a severe bout of depression. She hates to leave my side, and as you can see, will follow me to the pub whenever she can

Absolutely brilliant!

We're just in the process of looking for 2 new moggies. Been 8 months now since we lost our last one. Shouldn't be long now.

Yep, she's getting a bit confused in her old age and crying out in the same way she would have done as a kitten. Not much you can do about it I'm afraid

Had this guy and his sister 6 years this weekend

I'd get her to the vet to check out kidney function. Medication or just a change of diet may be able to slow the process.

There's a part of the file header that describes the picture orientation; Apple are pretty much the only developer who either use or honour it.

Moglet & Millie 2 years old today. I think I need a larger cat tree they don't fit anymore!


The day we got them they kept trying to sleep in their litter tray!




One drunk Friday night I thought a dirty big cat tree off Amazon was a good idea - they loved it!





They still love the cat tree, had to repair it a few times where they have wrecked it fighting/playing on it. They don't so much climb up it but launch themselves at it off the stairs of the table in the middle of the lounge!
