Hello I am not having much luck with my 2 babies at the moment. Gizmo somehow managed to break his hip and he had an Operation today to remove the Hip Joint. Has anyone got any experience with that ? He seems ok for now, and he is using the leg better than before the surgery, but it looks a...

Hello we picked up a dog from the shelter today. My 2 cats are not impressed especially as he was barking at them. How can we make it work ?

I just went to stroke my cat and realized he had blood on his nose, like a nose bleed (coming out of his nose), he also just lies down and doesn't move much, allthough he isn't limping, just very weak kinda thing. I picked him up and took him downstairs for a cuddle and noticed he also has a...

I found out last week, that Gizmois a pedigree Maine Coon. I have no idea how she ended up in a pet shop, being sold for a pitance, when she could have fetched £1000 or more (being a ginger female). Now my Question... whne do Maine Coons get fertile? I promised my daughter one litter...

Hello here are the first pictures of Gizmo, our new kitten. He is hard to photograph, as he never sits still. Bubbles still thinks he is some kind of alien and looks at him with a mixture of disgust and disbelief, if he isn't chasing him round the coffee table. Funny thing is, the moment he...

Hello I have just got a new kitten, he is 8 weeks old. I had him checked out at the Vet and he seems fine and he certainly bounces around like a normal 8-week-old kitten, but when I combed him, I found flea specks. No fleas and the vet confirmed him to be flea free. My daughter is allergic to...

Ok, we have a new kitten. I have no idea where she came from, she was bought at a pet shop. At the pet-shop she was in a little cage with newspaper on the floor and was basically sleeping in her own toilet, allthough it's a good pet-shop and he cleans the kitten cages several times a day (and he...

We have a new kitten. She is adorable! It's a white and ginger female, 8 weeks old. I wasn't sure how bubbles would react, but thought I would give it a try. He is only 10-ish months old, so I wasn't worried he would kill her. He hasn't been too bad, allthough definitley not happy. He growles...

Since a couple of weeks Iams wet food is available in the UK. Can anyone explain to me what the heck is in this stuff ? My cat is known as "the anorexic cat" as he doesn't really eat a lot. A kitten tin of Whiskas can last him all day, of the normal Felix / Whiskas pouches he will eat the gravy...

Hello I always wanted a playmate for bubbles and as it is kitten season, I put note out at the local pet-shop for a young cat. Bubbles is 10 months old and he not only needs loads of playtime, but we are both out of the house most of the day, and I thought he would appreciate a playmate. I...

Hello my cat is an indoor/outdoor cat. He has a cat toilet and uses it fine, never really has any accidents in the house (apart from when changing bed-sheets, but thats a different issue). For a while i had a cat litter which he didnt like and he started to go outside more, which was fine by...

Hello I am having a bit of trouble with my kitten's smelly body-movements. Last week he was constipated/ had very hard stool and ended up wiping hjis bottom on the kitchen floor. There also seemed to be slightly less of it (2 instead of 3 sausages for me to clean), the last 2 days his stool was...

Hello sorry, I didn't see this forum and started posting before introducing myself. How Rude ! Sorry. I am a single mum and live in South London with my daughter and a small kitten. I didn't really want a kitten, and certainly not a ginger male again (my ex kept my old cat who was a...

Hello I have a question. I can't get my kitten to drink. If I put plain milk down, he will lap up a little bit, but not a lot, water or watered down milk is completley ignored. It's not that much of a problem if I work early shifts, as my daughter feeds him before school at 9am and I am back by...
