I wonder why? My cats are fine though. Everyone knows that plastic holds most of bacteria from food and saliva. For cats this can cause feline acne, dental problems, not to talk about other bacterial problems. Especially bad are plastic dishes quite deep. They look nice, but not very...

I think that I have said all about my cats previously. I apologize for not being on line for quite a time - very busy. Just popped in back to this great site, and want to post an update. As you know my Johnie is no longer with us, and the others still are. My cats are the persons who keep me...

I'm sorry for being not around.  My kids are fine now. I had a very bad times, but they are fine now. My Shumba still has stitches on his arm.  But he is recovering well...

My Leo & Shumba for anyone who wants to see: I know I posted this before...

My baby boys:  Leo & Shumba (both lions):

I have 7 cats in my household. 5 females and 2 males.  All neutered and spayed. 4 of my females are friends and/or coping with each other.  They are around 6 years old.   One female came in later and she is just over 3 years old, already bigger than most of my female cats. Trudy (her name)...

What if you knew that when you had a kitten-boy constantly bitten up by feral cats in your property? What would you do? My family had their former cat-boy adopted from someone on farm. That kitten was neutered, fed, looked after properly, all was there for him.  He was the love of their...

Our new addition:  Leo & Shumba in our yard. Everyone knows what 'Leo' means.  'Shumba' in the language of the local dialect here in Zimbabwe also means 'Lion' These lovely names were given to them by my friend (vet from SPCA). Leo is on the right and Shumba is on the left of this pic...

I need to say that I bath my cats about 3 to 4 times a year, not more really... None of them were trained for bathing so, but I did as below from the time they were kittens. All of my cats are of feral origin, and I kind-of was expecting a problem in bathing them when needed. But not such a...

We have a shelter in our country too, where they rescue animals and don't destroy them. Many get adopted from there.  But those who don't get adopted - they live there forever. So, I've been there couple of times and love it. And now they have almost finished a new cattery, which will be for...

Just wanted to share. My Janie loves to climb on the top of roofs and sits there for hours meditating. Hence I have created this photomanipulation: I took separate pictures of sky and picture of Janie sitting on a wall and put them together. Original picture of Janie: And danuta50...

At about 6:30am I was driving to work. There wasn't much traffic, but I always go slow - about 60km per hour. Then ahead I saw a little lump on a road ahead and started braking as I could, but the mini bus was overtaking me, and I had to drive on.  That enabled me to see that it was a small...

I have six cats in our home - five three year-olds and one 7 month old. All of them have different tastes and I serve their food in different plates for everyone to take what they want. That includes different raw meats (main food), some commercial wet food, as well as some dry food all on...

Her name is Trudy. She walked into our property somehow and right into the house asking for food. She appeared fearless and a domestic cat that someone threw away. We searched for the owner, posted adverts, but on-one responded. No need to say that I fed her straight away and I took her to...

I so admire people who love cats!  I think they are very special people, because cats are very special animals, very unlike any other. I wasn't a cat lover all my life, but during the recent three years of my life my five made me into a crazy cat lady. The stories I can tell about them! I...

We know that kitties LOVE climbing high! Please share your pics of your kitties climbing? (Including the furniture or cabinets for inside-only kitties, where they could look down on you). Here is some of mine: No.1 - Janie on her favorite tree branch No.2 - Janie on a tree when she was a...

I have five kitties and two doggies. The young dog is the one who does it. The old dog just goes through the litter-box (which is in the carport) at night. Both dogs eat cat poop which I found out is natural thing for dogs to do. My kitties are going out to do their toilet into the yard...

Do any of your kitties eat cooked food?  (not exactly table scraps). Does anyone cooks meat for kitties (even just half-cooking of it)? And if yes - do your kitties do well on it health-wise? If you do feed your kitties cooked food - can you share what do you cook for them and how?

I read in health article somewhere a while ago that for humans the healthiest way of eating is something very different from how most of us eat. They say you should eat one item at a time with intervals (even different brands of meat or vegetables/pasta, etc.) Like if you eat meat - don't eat...

I just read a post in this section and replied, but felt that was not a place for me to fume away and offload the anger off my chest. Here is the link to that thread: http://www.thecatsite.com/t/240244/the-vets-refused-my-sick-kitten What I read actually brought tears to my eyes. Vets, and...
