Actually it is the cats who look after me as their small needs keep me mobile, and their love soothes the heart..

Oh MY! Such a wonderful warm welcome! Thank you all! Will see re photos later; we are in a Force 8 gale and keeping warm is the priority. Turf fire well a blaze..

Six days is so short a time. It really is early days. One of the three street youngsters I took in last year took weeks to come to me fully. She would suddenly attach to my wrist, purring, for hours on end. Clinging desperately. But no way would she accept petting unless she initiated it. That...

Good morning.. New here... living alone in an isolated dwelling on a small offshore island , West Mayo to be exact . With five cats, all rescues. All neutered of course, aged about 2 years to 15 years . Punch drunk with lack of sleep as we have had a Force 8 gale raging all night with loud...

Good morning from a small Irish offshore island. Punch drunk with lack of sleep as we have Force 8 westerly gale raging, . and temp barely above freezing. Donegal has snow. I am off the west coast of Mayo.

Thank you for this care. Nothing really fits though. My cats roam free as they want so there could have been a start of the aggression way back with no marks. Jacob is so laid back and a total wuss! Not a scrap of aggression in him, I cannot understand why it is just Jacob that is having trouble...

Sorryl it would nor let me type more It came to a head in the middle of the night; a full on cat fight by my bed. Screams, etc. I had a task to separate them. And made Oliver leave the house. Jacob hid for hours and his face is a mess. Deep scratches around his eyes . Now he is terrified and...

Good afternoon from a small Irish island.. Seeking opinions etc on a situation with my cats. Although I have kept, bred and rescued cats for around 40 years this is a new thing to me. Around a year ago when my dog and one of my oldest cats died, I took in three young rescues. 2 girls, one boy...

All I can say is... contact folk who are there to help. A passing stranger feeding and causing offence does more harm then good. Had I gone feet first re Stinkertom? It is against the law here to neglect cats but not your place or mine to do as you are doing? I have encountered this so many...

sleeping cats...well one is!

I hear you and agree BUT you must remember how dirt poor and starving many Irish folk were until fairly recently. Cats have no commercial value and folk coiuld not afford to feed them or neuter them and this carries on. BUT if you google "cat rescues Ireland" and TNR Ireland you will see how...

Well, interesting indeed. I was on the phone to a neighbour as the emergency helicopter was in meaning an urgent hospital admission ( offshore island here) and we mentioned cats. He asked if "that other cat" was still around. Life in a tiny enclosed island community has certain refinements as...

No shower here.. no bath.... managed five months without electricity a wile ago... Mu mind! If that croaks....

Yesl Erik Storm blew the door off!

All has been silent all day.. Most unusual. Hope he is OK.. maybe yesterday and the day before were just a lapse?

Thought it said MERRY cats! Prefer that anyways!

all gone! The pudding I mean! Just a touch of black coffee in it... yum

He is lovely. And his markings are so like my oldest cat. I lost a cat once and never found him. It s a terrible feeling.. sending you HUGS!
