It was a year yesterday since Molly was diagnosed with intestinal lymphoma and she is still fighting. She had lots of nice food, plus lots of cuddles and playtime. I never dreamed she would still be here a year later, clearly the daily chicken, treats, cuddles, kisses and bein told she is...

For two reasons actually - firstly, he is going to have repeat bloods done tonight to see if everything is still OK internally (he did have mild anaemia 6 months ago that the vet has never suggested rechecking, so i am doing it), and whether his stomach feels any better. He is still scavenging a...

Molly has had a couple of off days and as is it 11 months since her cancer diagnosis i am understandably worried. Fortunately we have an app for tonight as she is due her annual bloods and booster although it isn't looking like she will be having her booster. I am going to ask him for a steroid...

HE clearly isn't content with being thoroughly naughty this week (weeing on carpets, getting me up early, fighting with the neighbours cats) - he now wants to be ill too!! i popped out for 10 mins last night, came back and he was limping - at first I thought it was just that he had jumped down...

Am looking for some suggestions for DS Games - I like things like Mahjong, Match 3 games, hidden object games - have been a bit disappointed with some of my buys, even though they have had good reviews. I do have game rentals, but due to holidays, I dont have anything to play. Any suggestions...

Here is some of Zi's background (along with the others) http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=212255 We have had a bad weekend, and I just dont know what to do next. She has been grumpy for the past couple of days, which sometimes is just her, but sometimes that things are hurting a...

It was Molly's 18th birthday on Friday - since her cancer diagnosis in Feb, I have never let myself imagine she would see her birthday, but she did!! I got up early - well, she woke me up early, she was sleeping on my chest, we had some more cuddles, followed by the longest play session in a...

It is 3 years today since I picked Zia up, although she wasn't supposed to still be here, I offered to foster her and my aim was to find a home for a 17yo to prove that it can be done, unfortunately the rescue had other ideas and wanted me to keep her!! Then when we got the CRF diagnosis in Jan...

I have put some of my new cats history on here previously, but will recap here (rather long, so bear with me). I adopted him from a rescue in July, he was fine initially although a bit of a scavenger. I went away early August (he had been with me 3 weeks then), and just before I came back he...

Mods, feel free to move if there is a better place 8 weeks after losing Sam, I feel ready for another cat (despite saying I wouldnt go back up to 3!!). Buster has been with us so long he is due for his boosters in a month, and I doubt he was vacc'd as soon as he came in cos he was rather thin...

Some of you might have noticed my thread asking for vibes for Oscar, one of my ex foster cats - sadly he lost his fight this week. He had actually recovered relatively well from his neurological episode, and could at least jump onto windowsills. He developed an eye ulcer shortly after that, but...

I am going to pick up a rat from the rescue, i have liked them for a few years, but wouldn't have trusted the fosters, and with fostering, didn't have a separate room, but now I do very little fostering (and I have cats I can trust), I am in a position to have one, and there is one at the...

Ironically, Sam was never supposed to be with me, he was picked up as an 8mo female to go to a fosterer, but as soon as he walked out of the carrier at the fosterers with his tail up, it was obvious he was a boy and too big for an 8mo, so he had to have a quick name change (ironically the woman...

It is a year since I had to let Tino go to the bridge, I cant believe how quickly the time has gone. I do wish I had been able to get him sooner so he had longer in a home environment, but he chose the time he wanted to be helped, and at least we got him before his teeth were so bad they stopped...

I am sure some of them will have been covered on here before, but will start again. This will be long, I'm afraid - will do each cat on a separate post to make it easier. If anyone has any tips on any of their issues, I would appreciate it. My eldest, Zia is around 19 - she could be closer to...

One of my sort of foster cats (he came as a foster, but the rescue is closing so it is up in the air what we will do with him) was diagnosed with hyper-t last week. Background - he was picked up as a young cat in the middle of December but a vet check showed him to be 11/12yo, with possible...

There is a post on a UK forum I use, someone has said that it is possible to have solid Raggies, although incredibly rare, and I couldnt see how that was possible, I didn't think anything other than colourpoints had been used in teh breed? Any breeders know of this?

Just wrote this for the rescue, and thought i would use it as his tribute. It is hard enough to comprehend people dumping cats on the street, but so much harder to understand when you come across an old and disabled cat. Poor Jeannie was found walking on a road, despite being blind and deaf...

There is a thread on here with his background and history, but basically he is an old, painfully thin stray with bad teeth - I wanted to give him a week or so of eating before booking him in for his dental, but he went off his food on Thurs, so he is booked in for Tues, and trying to get him to...

He only arrived at 7.30 last night, so still doesn't have a name. Yet another painfully thin male cat, i hope his thinness is due to not having decent meals recently, and not health issues like the last two. He is a white and black cat, but less black than Kiz, and his white bits are a bit grey...
