Lovely Blue went to Rainbow Bridge this morning to join his friends, Spook, Felix, Topsy, Snowy and my other lovely cats who have passed over the years. Blue had ESRD for some time and took a turn for the worse yesterday. He was 16/17 years old. I had him for 15 years. He was the last of my...

Sadly we had to have our beautiful odd-eyed white cat, Snowy PTS this morning. About 2 months ago he had what we thought might be a stroke but even our vet wasn't sure. Whatever it was, Snowy recovered, was his usual purry self, eating well etc. The only thing different was that he could walk...

My son (he's older than he looks LOL) with Keno using him as a tree Ooh. He's got sharp claws After all that climbing, time for a nap. What is it about cats that they just love clean washing

Another use for a litter tray... He could have any comfy spot in the house...and he picks...the litter tray Gives Puss in Boots a whole new meaning Much livelier today, more like the playful kitten he should be - discovered what a ball is for

Here's a short video clip I took this evening of Keno chasing his ball. He is much livelier than he was when we got him on Saturday evening. He probably feels much better now he's got rid of the flea infestation that was literally bleeding him dry, poor thing. He must have been really...

OK, so our new kitten, Keno hasn't got a clue on how to use a litter tray. The family he came from probably didn't provide a litter tray for Mumpuss so she's been unable to train her kittens. I'm just glad I don't live in their house - yuk. It must stink to high heaven. Anyway, Keno is...

Finally got our kitten today - as expected moving with fleas and a belly full of worms Although I've seen the neighbour a few times in the passing, I've had the feeling she was avoiding me. I managed to talk to one of her kids the other night and when hubby and I came home late this afternoon...

Should have put this on earlier. The other weekend, Snowy our 12 year old beautiful odd-eyed white cat seemed to have a stroke. He recovered in a couple of days. However, we thought we'd lost him on Sunday. Here is what happened. On the Friday night, Snowy wouldn't settle. It was as if he...

Poppy has to have an op on her eye tomorrow The ulcer is healing but there is a lot of scar tissue which has formed and this is preventing the ulcer healing up completely. When she opens her eye, you can see it but as soon as she sees us looking at her, she shuts the eye again - she thinks...

Wasn't sure whether to put this thread in here or the health forum. Neighbour came round today to say come and collect our new kitten (who we've decided to name Keno). He is 8 weeks old now. I think he's going to be quite a big cat as he has big paws. He's too cute for words and as bold as...

Our lovely Snowy, our odd-eyed white seems to have had a stroke. He doesn't seem to be able to see, his tail keeps thrashing from side to side (not like him), he has a vacant look on his face and keeps walking round in wide circles, completely disorientated. His front left paw also jerked...

Looking at some of the videos of kittens being born, I found this one. I think it's not only a beautiful cat, but a lovely video. Just that I wouldn't want this cat jumping on me from a height in the morning Enjoy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuiKb...eature=related

...or at least Poppy does Not long back from the vets and her eye ulcer is not healing up as well as he'd hoped. It hasn't got bigger, but it hasn't got smaller either. He has changed the ointment and we have to put this in her eye every 2 hours today and tomorrow, then 4 times daily. She...

There has been a lot of sadness on the forum for one reason or another, so, to cheer everyone up, I thought it would be good to tell everyone what our earliest encounters with cats were. I'll start the ball rolling. I wasn't allowed to keep pets as a child (definitely a deprived child) but...

I got my lovely Lucy's ashes back today. They are in a really nice wooden casket with a brass nameplate bearing her name. I will put the casket on my bedside cabinet so Lucy will be back where she belongs. She always slept on my pillow or under the duvet if it was cold. I have just one more...

"You are warm and furry and taste good with Ketchup but I'm only a small Python and don't want indigestion!" Poppy investigating Byron the Royal Python (Ball Python) last night. Sorry about the poor quality of the pic - it was taken with my mobile phone. Digital camera has a flat battery...

I haven't seen the neighbour that I'm getting the kitten from for a few days but spoke briefly to her this afternoon. When asking how the kittens were, she said they were doing well and starting to eat solid food now. What she said next unnerved me somewhat. She said she didn't think the...

Here is Blue (the grey cat) and Tibs. Blue is approx 15/16 years old. Given to me 14 years ago as a stray. Tibs is 12 and was born into the family. This is Smudge. She's an odd-eyed white. Sister to Tibs. Meet Pickles. Although he has green eyes, he is deaf. Brother to Tibs, Smudge...

It never rains but it pours After the loss of Lucy last week, I find myself back at the vets today with our Poppy. She has corneal ulcers When Poppy was a tiny kitten she had cat flu which resulted in ulcers. Many trips to the vet and lots of medication later, she recovered but always had...

Relaxing in the shower this morning, my mind wandered as it does. We are getting a part Siamese in a few weeks time and I started thinking about the pure-bred Siamese cat I had many years ago and just how intelligent these cats are - and sneaky. Disney had it down to a "T" with the two Siamese...
