Thank you so much for your replies I really appreciate it. Someone found him in a local park about 1/2 mile away so he's home now. I'm looking into building a catio and not letting my cats out ever again
To cut a long story short - my cat was returned to me from abroad after being missing there. I let him outside after only 5 days and now he's missing. I 1000% know it's completely my own fault for letting him out too early. I'm beside myself and don't know what to do. I've looked everywhere but...
Thank you so much to each and every one of you for taking the time to reply. I truly appreciate your kind words and helpful tips!
We ended up finding one of our cats. He was actually in the building the entire time. The previous times we went in to look he didn't make any sound but the final...
To cut a long story short- out 2 cats are missing after 2 big earthquakes, we have 2 days to find them before we have to evacuate. Best and quickest ways of finding them?
We had 2 massive earthquakes here in turkey. As soon as our apartment stopped shaking we looked for out 2 cats but...
Unfortunately I adopted him from the streets here in Turkey and I wouldn't adopt him out here in case he ends up back on the streets again. However, I have considered adopting him once we move to the UK but I really don't want it to have to come to that :( The vet has him on a special dry food...
Thank you for all your advice I really appreciate it! The vet says it could be a light bite, scratch or scrape. I will definitely be doing the introductions again and hopefully we will get over this.
Thank you so much for your reply! At first I thought it was from a vaccination he had recently but it's about 2 inches and hard with a lump under it - no puncture marks that I can see but it's like 80% healed up so it's difficult to tell.
What you're saying about him now seeing the kitten as an...
Hi I've posted a few times before but to cut a long story short the relationship between my resident cat (male, approx 3-4 years old, neutered, no health issues) is getting increasingly aggressive towards my new cat (male, 6 months, unneutered). I adopted the kitten about 4 months ago, did the...
This is my little guy Rory. We found him in a park filthy, emaciated with an ear infection, eye infection, chest infection, liquid diarrhea, fleas and worms. Now he is a healthy energetic kitten who loves to cuddle, sleep on my shoulder and annoy his big brother
Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my post, it really is much appreciated. I feel a bit better about the situation now and hopefully it will get better and not worse as the kitten gets older. I absolutely agree that 12 weeks onwards is the best age, but unfortunately we didn't...
I adopted a roughly 8 week old kitten just over 2 months ago. I did the introductions feeding at the other side of the door, supervised time etc. and although my resident 3 year old would sometimes play with the kitten on his terms he was still hissing and swatting him. My kitten then sustained...
Thank you so much for you reply. You both definitely helped to ease my mind. They are still playing the same way but my adult cat hasn't made that noise again. Although my adult cat still hisses and swipes at the kitten daily he has tried to lick him a couple of times as well, hoping that's a...
Hi, I recently adopted an 8 week old kitten about 6 weeks ago. I did the slow introductions but my resident 3 year old cat is still not a big fan of the new kitten. They usually play together everyday (chasing each other through a tunnel, jumping on each other etc. but it's usually completely...
Thank you so much for taking the time to reply. I'll be honest I don't really know. I've only ever owned 1 cat so I've never actually seen 2 cats interacting before. The first couple or days my resident cat hissed all the time and swatted him really hard. The last few days the hisses are a bit...
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed reply, I really appreciate it. The "get away from me" definitely makes sense! The kitten is definitely very confident and quite obsessed with my resident cat. He sometimes hides for a few seconds but then comes straight back out...
