For any interested. Dova is doing well. He lives out in the countryside, hunts mice and other small animals and even hangs around with other cats. His new owners changed his name which I don't like but I doubt he minds too much. Every day I think about him and I still miss him as much as I...

Goodbye Dova

Dova is gone. He was collected and taken away this morning. I had all his toys and everything all together along with a shopping list of things he needs to be cared for properly. The lady who is taking him has had cats in the past, she should take good care of him and she knows what he needs. I...

One of our last evenings together.

I think I've found a home for him. Out in the seaside. I should get some updates about how he gets on there too because they are a friend of a friend sort of thing. He'll be left outside too. I'll make sure he gets the right shots and vaccinations and is weaned into it gradually. I'll ask them...

Thanks Brian, There definitely was no accounting for this, 5 years together, i thought that was stable but what can you do. I'll do my best for Dova anyway, I'm sure he'll be okay. I will have to advertise him well because it's hard to find a home for an adult cat. But I will have all the...

Life is a bitch. My girlfriend suddenly and out of the blue forced Dova's fate this week. She left me, abandoned me and the cat and our home and left for a few hundred miles away. It was uncertain before with renting but now I have to re-home him. I have a charity who are looking for cats to...

Thanks for all the advice again. Definitely the vinegar is a good idea and will be used in future, I just cleaned it the old fashioned way with disinfectant and he's generally stayed away from the window which I'm grateful for. It's been a clean window for the last month at least. I suppose...

Yeah a high sided box is definitely on the cards, it might be his Christmas present. I imagine he won't have any issues with a new box either, I know a lot of people have their cats react badly to different types of litter but we mostly get our groceries delivered and they do substitutions on...

I'm gonna be comprehensive here so sorry for the essay to follow! Well thankfully when it comes to the litter usage he's gotten the hang of it well enough. He was awful up until after about 6-9 months but now he knows what he's doing, mostly. He still looks confused at his business and sniffs...

And for a recent picture, here's an action shot of the man himself

I thought I'll post again, He turned one year old recently and I've taken him off kitten food as suggested by the wise people at Whiskas. Unfortunately it doesn't make him any less prone to stinking my apartment out! I've said it before but he is very much like a dog, any time I ever go...

There he is at the time of writing, waiting to pounce on me. He bites hard, it's not encouraged behaviour, I ignore him after he bites but he keeps on doing it. Still, at least he looks cute before he tries to cannibalise me.

Thought I may as well update this thread as it's been a while. He's 9 months old now or so and still very much a kitten. I had him neutered quite a while ago now and he recovered immediately. I found a good rural vet who did it with no messing around. He was fine within a day or two, didn't...

Thanks for the compliments! Well we're a month on and he's still not spraying. He isn't neutered yet but it'll probably happen soon. His behaviour has become a lot more predictable now, he pushes his luck for pure fun i think. Like he can get at any surface now, if i turn my back he'll be...

That's good to know. I looked it up, a spay is the removal of the ovaries and uterus.. I thought it was a simple cut tube. Poor cats. I don't like the thought of removing his newly discovered testicles but if it's necessary for him it'll have to be done. I've never neutered a dog, I had a girl...

Yesterday he was beautiful and today he's handsome, my brain will take some time to adjust to it! Everyone thought I was joking when I came home. Thankfully he has the neutral name alright! It's pretty funny that at first we were gonna call him Lola. It's kind've been his honourary middle name...

Haha no problem! I hope he calms down, according to the vet he will though and I've a nutrient paste to give him that should harden it up so he won't have as much diarrhoea, combined with his worm tablet he should be okay again. Very expensive though, I have another tablet for him for in a few...

He's still my little buddy, I swear Dova was looking at me like I was a fool! No wonder why he refused to wear his pink collar..

I took it on authority from the lady I got him from that he was a girl, last time I'll make that mistake. Amazing how under developed male cats are that they can fly under the radar like that
