To address some of the questions. Initially when blu was very young, Lozzy and blu were extremely close. Curling up together to sleep etc. But in between I rescued another kitten,Potter. He was a darling and both Lozzy and blu became quite friendly with him. Potter was recently adopted (the...

Hi everybody. I need some advice. In June last year i had rescued 2 cats. Lozzy (a five year old male who kept coming to me with bite wounds and skin problems) and Blu (a month old kitty that was abandoned). So i took them in and i kept them in my room ( i dont cage my rescues). Lozzy and Blu...

Hi everyone. Thank you for ur kinda words. Thought I should update on Yaz. After much deliberation I gave Yaz up two weeks ago to the expat lady. The Irish couple felt she was a bit too skittish for them. The other family was not right for her I felt. So I gave her to the expat lady. Ideally I...

Hi everyone. I thought i should update on Yaz's situation and also would love your kind advice on my dilemma - how to choose the right family for a pet. So for the past 2 odd weeks i have tried @orange&white's advice and tried to get Lily and Yaz to get to know each other. I did the slow...

Today i received an enquiry about Yaz. This lady has just lost an elderly cat and wants to adopt Yaz as a companion for her one year old. Im just starting to get used to having Yaz at my own place. Although Lily is a bit sulky, i try to divide my time between the two. The situation now is. Yaz...

Thank you @orangeblossom and @tarasgirl06. Peanut is buried in my garden and I hope he is in a happier place. Although I miss peanut and think of him everyday I can't deny Yaz is much happier now at my place. I get to play with her more and I'm slowly taking steps to introduce her to lily...

After fighting a brave fight my little peanut has found his angel wings. He is the sweetest bravest cat I know. He was beautiful even in death. I hope he is now in peace. I left work early today to take him to the specialist one last time before taking him home. But peanut refused to be put...

So sorry abt Bean. I'm struggling with the same dilemma for my 3 month old Peanut. He was diagnosed with wet fip on 11 April. I can see he is in pain from the swelling in his legs. There is some fluid in this abdomen too. But I was told that we will know when it is time to let go. For peanut I...

When I took him to the vet last week he wasn't as bad. His legs were not swollen for one and he seemed a lot better generally. His swelling started on Sunday. I will check with the vet on the pain medication. But giving him his pills is no easy task. He literally clenches his jaw shut and...

Hello everyone. Poor peanut seems to be in so much pain. His limbs are quite swollen and he is limping around slowly. He can't seem to be able to sleep and keeps trying to change position because of the pain I should think. But he still comes to the door to greet me and still mews loudly for his...

Hi everyone. Appreciate some advice regarding little peanut. Sadly he appears a little bad today. There appears to be some sort of swelling in his hind legs. He can't seem to walk very well and he is sleeping in a very funny position, with his back pushed up. My first instinct is to rush him to...

Hi everyone. So i took little Peanut to the vet today. Poor kitty complained all the way to the vet and back. When we were back he ran to his mama and complained a little more. Such a darling. The vet didn't seem overly concerned with Peanut's abdomen. Although swollen he said the fluid in the...

Hi everyone. Thought I update on peanut and Yaz. So since Sunday I have been staying with peanut and Yaz a little longer. Peanut seemed to be doing great. Came to the door to greet me and ate a little more. Although he did appear to be missing his siblings he was eating better and a little more...

So i have, after much deliberation and stress, given Pecan and Patches to a new family. I feel some relief now not so much because they have gone off but now i can stop stressing on the decision. I finally decided to let them go off together because i just felt they deserve all the happiness in...

To add on Lily was also a stray i picked up so she may have been exposed to the virus. Also another stray male cat I feed hangs around outside the house. I have him neutered (he has fathered his fair share before he came to me) and vaccinated too. But there is always the exposure. My house has...

To answer a few questions. Just to give a bit of perspective, my current place (where i stay) has a couple of rooms (all occupied). I shared my room with lily when it comes to sleeping, litter box etc. At night she was here at 11 am to sleep and meal times she used to be here at 6am waking me...

Thank you so much. You have no idea how comforting your words are to me right now. I'm surrounded by people who don't see the world the way I do. I'm so glad to find this site where I can pour my heart and my problems out and people understand me. Thank you to everyone who took the time to reply...

Thank you everyone for your suggestion. My only worry is what if I never find an adopter. Yaz has been on the register for a couple of months. No one has even enquired. The kittens had a few people interested. Seems to me everyone prefers kittens to a more mature but extremely loving cat. When I...

After much thought I'm letting Pecan and patches go live their lives. I feel if I don't let go, I'm going to rob them a chance of their own family. And you are right. Getting someone to adopt both is heaven sent. I'm also going to get Yaz tested. The apartment is mine so Im not incurring...

Hi everyone. I had posted this as a reply under another topic but thought it should be a topic by itself under health. I would like to ask everyone. Will being locked up 20 hours a day in an apartment alone make your cat depressed. Does having another kitten/cat help? A little bit of...
