    Hello all I just bought a robot vacuum cleaner. I ıt hasn't arrived yet. It will make noise, although less than the regular vacuum. Since minish hates the regular one, I am afraid this will be her new enemy. Is there any possibility she might come to accept it? What can I do?

    Conversations with our cats (translated to human speak)

    Hello. There may have been a thread like this but I couldn't find any recently: Minish is my first cat so I was a slow learner of the way of cats. It took about 6 months of observation and background info gathering to learn what minish says or means in our interactions. I have a lot of fun...

    In my country Turkey shelters are not enough so there are a lot of stray cats roaming around. Most are vaccinated and sterilized then released. If they live in a caring neighborhood, make their first year alive, they usually get by. I find them more clever and endearing than cats with homes...

    What do your cats smell like?

    Minish is my first cat. I knew cats captivated one's eyes with their beauty, ears with their lovely meows and purrs, and fingers with their softest of furs. What I didn't know was how wonderful a cat smells! It's as if all the bad energy leaves with the pee and poop (god I hate scooping) and the...

    Hi everyone, I'm the parent of my first and only cat minish (5). I'm an academic, live alone and she's my only pet as she prefers to be the center of attention. I found her as a stray kitten left for starvation, I could count her ribs, a tail like a rodent, her furless ears bigger than her...
