    Partially pooping outside litter box

    Yeah I found some in capsule form, that you open and sprinkle on the wet food so I will see if it helps!

    Partially pooping outside litter box

    Yes, I now have a note in the notes app on my phone to keep track of the incidents so I have a record to show the vet! Good idea on the probiotics ! I'll see what the local pet store has to offer on my way home from work today and start implimenting them 😊

    Partially pooping outside litter box

    It is fairly consist spots that I find them, but they're not where she sleeps. This morning for example there were 3 little nuggets dropped at intervals between the litter box (in the bathroom) and the living room. I'm more concerned by the sudden frequency with which it's started happening -...

    Partially pooping outside litter box

    Yeah I wondered if it might be that but some of the nuggets can end up quite some distance away, spread over her usual route from her litter box to the couch! I'm pretty good with cleanings, I do it every AM when I first wake up which is usually only an hour or two after she poops - I guess I...

    Partially pooping outside litter box

    The camera is a great idea! I have one sitting around (from when she was a kitten and I was nervous about leaving her along when I was at work) that I don't use anymore and can repurpose! My vet is on vacation at the moment but I've left a message to ask for an appoonect week - hopefully with...

    Partially pooping outside litter box

    Hi all, I've recently had several incidents where I've fount a nugget or two of poop outside of the litter box when I wake up in the morning. Prior to the last couple of weeks this had happened maybe twice in the two years I've had Sky but it has happened 4 times in the last 2 weeks. It...

    Vaccinations for indoor cat/leash training

    Hi all! My 1 year old cat Sky is going in for her annual booster jab tomorrow. Since I initially had no intentions of letting her outside her first jabs (initial shots and booster 4 weeks later) were for FHV, FCV and FPV. I now am considering the idea of training her with a harness and...

    Tips and tricks for dealing with biting?!

    Hi all, I'm struggling with some of my cat's behaviour at the moment - over the last few months she's decided that its a great game to really attack my arms, biting and scratching to draw blood, and I'm sort of reaching my whit's end with it and hoped that people here might have a few tips and...

    Feather toy reccomendations?

    Hi all, There are two things my 6 month old kitten Sky is absolutely obsessed with. Feathers and the crinkley mylar balls. She's very good a ripping the feathers out of any toy that has them and instead of constantly replacing them I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations of feather...

    Post spay recovery - dissolvable stitches

    Yeah there are 2 stitches that are just external and go over the glue (knot on the outside)! I just took off her onesie to give her an opportunity to groom and I literally looked away for 2 seconds to answer my phone and she'd chewed on one of the stiches and undone one of the knots 🙈 The wound...

    Post spay recovery - dissolvable stitches

    That's good to know! I know I have a long day at work tomorrow and so I'll probably leave it on for the next 24h just so I don't stress to much about her during my shifts! She's been kept on strict no jumping/playing since the op and whilst she's definitely recovered she isn't quite like...

    Post spay recovery - dissolvable stitches

    Hiya, I just wondered if anyone had any experience with external dissolvable stitches and recovery time? The vet closed Sky's external spay incision with glue and two dissolvable stitches. He said its his preference with younger cats as its an extra layer of protection if the kitten gets a...

    Previous owner requesting weekly updates!

    I'm also based in NRW!! Agreed, she said that the litter was from a friend of hers, but there is of course no way for me to verify that! I had been in contact with the local shelter for months, I'd get in contact with them every time they had an indoor cat available, and even went to see a...

    Previous owner requesting weekly updates!

    Hi all, Just to give you an update! After I didn't respond to her last request for one day, I received a second message simply with a bunch of question marks. At this point I recruited my German friend to help me write a succinct and to the point message to get my point across. Essentially it...

    Previous owner requesting weekly updates!

    Hi all, thanks for your responses! We did have a (hand) written contract basically just saying that I would be responsible for all her medical care (she hadn't been to the vet at all and wasn't vaccinated, chipped, de-wormed or spayed) and that I wouldn't pass her around and just sell her on...
