    Friendly kitten visiting - what to do?

    No but I've got plenty of coconut oil. I use it in my beard. I will try to oil her tomorrow. I can't believe how light she is. She's like a sandwich. My cat is fully grown and the difference in weight is enormous.

    Friendly kitten visiting - what to do?

    She has been to the vet and she is not chipped. Which I think all but confirms she is a stray, in the UK most people let their cats roam freely, it is not that common to keep one indoors as a housecat. The vet said she doesn't seem to have anything wrong with her skin, probably just fleas, but...

    Friendly kitten visiting - what to do?

    Thanks Furball and also for your links in this thread. Well she comes here morning and evening like clockwork for her meals. I have a male cat and he is 2 and when I feed him, he doesn't wolf it down, he will have half and return to the rest as he pleases throughout the day. This stray will...

    Friendly kitten visiting - what to do?

    Wow. OK, need to sort this out. I wish owners would put some sort of identification on their cats. I suppose that is what the chip is for. First thing to do seems like getting it to a vet and seeing if it has a chip, surely? If not, then what would you say the chances of it having an owner are?

    Friendly kitten visiting - what to do?

    Thank you Furball. Still have not heard anything. I think this cat is a girl. You cannot see it's balls and I remember with my cat you could see it's balls before he had his fixing. It was on the bin again this morning waiting for me 😭 It has been fed. It didn't sleep in the basket in the...

    Friendly kitten visiting - what to do?

    Will this be OK on the skin? Would you suggest bringing it inside to bathe it? Probably best because if it runs off while it is wet, that could be a disaster and it could freeze? Yes, am on it 🙏 Thank you guys. For now I have put a basket and blankets and food in a shed it can get in so it...

    Friendly kitten visiting - what to do?

    Trying to find it's owner. Posted on a local Facebook group so waiting to hear back. If I don't get any news I suppose I'll be taking it to the vet and looking after it as an outdoor cat. It just follows and follows and follows, crying all the time 😭

    Friendly kitten visiting - what to do?

    Wow, seems it is pretty unanimous that it is indeed a stray. When I got up this morning and went in the kitchen, it was there again, curled up fast asleep on the bin waiting for me 😭 I gave it half a pouch and it wolfed every last bit down. My cat doesn't eat all his food in one go so this...

    Friendly kitten visiting - what to do?

    Hello TCS. Recently a particularly friendly kitten started visiting our garden. It has been about two months. It is very small and weighs next to nothing, I personally feel it is too young to be out alone wandering, I've added a couple of pictures. It has a bald patch on it's back and...

    The life of Cecil

    Well its been a good few months since I last posted and thought I'd give another update. He has passed his one year birthday and its been over one year since he moved in with me. He's doing so well and is an important part of the family. He's never been sick or used the toilet outside of his...

    Cats all over the kitchen

    Good luck with this. I'll be paying attention to the thread. My cat is very cheeky and enjoys a stroll on the kitchen surfaces.

    Make cat less bitey?

    Why doesn't TCS recommend a spray bottle?

    My cat plays fetch

    Is this common? He likes to drop his fluffy ball toy on top of me when I'm on the sofa, I throw it, he chases it and he runs back and drops it again. Twenty to thirty times in a session. I've never had a cat that's done this before. It's really cute.

    The life of Cecil

    Thank you Furball. Yes it's going well and he's a happy cat I think. He has a thing now where early in the morning (5-7am) he will climb on top of me when I'm asleep and beg for cuddles. It's very cute, my last cat didn't do this as much. I have noticed that he seems very attached to me, I'm...

    The life of Cecil

    One week on and Cecil is doing great. Back to his old self and still very cheeky. I haven't noticed too much of a change, maybe he's calmed down slightly but nothing drastic. Here is a picture of him. We were watching snooker on TV under a duvet. I held his little paws 😁

    Thank you all. I gave him his breakfast and he munched it quickly. He seems to be perking up now.

    The life of Cecil

    I joined recently to discuss and get advice for my kitten Cecil. Today he had his operation to neuter him and he's just recovering at home with me now. He seems a bit quieter and calmer but nothing else really. What should I expect over the next few days? He had some chicken earlier, its...

    How does your cat wake you up

    He hugs me. Every morning I spend about twenty minutes cuddling him. It's the highlight of my day.
