    Scruffy Cat !!

    My wife and I are at the end of our tether. We have 2 cats, one of whom is very long haired, but no matter how often we groom her (which is every day) she always seems to get matts of fur either side of her body near the base of her tail. We have 3 items we use. 1 - A rubber massage brush...

    Cat growth..

    Our cat is a bully :(

    The neighbours who live two houses away from us have 2 cats - both pretty tortoiseshells. They are big cats who spend most of their time sitting on their garden shed, which gives them a vantage point over a few gardens and the school field behind our house. They are obviously siblings as I've...

    Noses - wet or dry?

    This is probably a really silly question... I know one sign of a healthy dog is that it has a cold wet nose. Does this apply to cats too? Merlin's nose is always wet, Freya's always seems to be dry. Both are perfectly healthy but I was just wondering. (Sorry, this silly question came out...

    Messy cat !

    My wife and I have 2 rescue kittens (brother and sister aged 9 months). One of them (Merlin) has always had a thing for water, whether it be a dripping tap, puddle or his water bowl. He will regularly sit in puddles - muddy or otherwise, fish in the washing up bowl and sometimes we've caught...
