NEVER disturb a sleeping cat!

Thanks!

Trouble & Trix plant extract natural pellets.

The photos actually make her look more brown than she is. It's more of a pinkish/purplish/greyish brown. If that makes sense. 😄

Anything is possible! Could that also explain her extraordinarily silky fur? She's like no cat I've ever patted - and I've patted a few! 😄

I'd describe her darkest parts as dark slate grey. I have a black cat as well, so it's easy to compare. She also has this purplish lavender like tone, though. Does that happen in blue cats?

I have no idea. Menzies was rescued by a TNR group from a suburban cat colony at the age of 6 months. She may have been dumped. So her history and ancestry could be anything. I was her foster Mum.

People frequently comment on how unusual the colour of my cat Menzies. I've described her on her registration as slate grey smoke with stripes and spots. Recently, I've been trying to work out the formal description. I've come up with something that I don't know is even possible. Blue and...

Interested, but a little nervous/cautious as well.

Depends on the cat. I've taken 2 cats with me when I've visited the parents (a 500km drive), where we stay in the flat with attached garage. Pounce meows nearly the whole way (she hates being in a cage). Snuffles always messes himself, so I have to stop & change the absorbent pad in his cage...

I bought a sifting litterbox (not cheap, as you say). It's great, but I've found it still takes a bit of energy (that I don't have) to use. However, I've now found the perfect clumping flushable litter. It literally dissolves in water! So now I have three of the litterboxes in the bathroom and...
