As suggested by Stefanz, I'm starting a new thread on the Indian cat. The Indian cat (not sure of the actual breed name), is one of the most common domestic cats found in India. While a large number of them have been adopted and do live indoors, there are probably millions of them which lead a...
Thanks Stefanz, yes I guess it is difficult to tell breed from looks alone. We are unsure about parentage because she was picked up at a really poorly kept mass pet store which is located in the middle of one of India's biggest fresh meat markets, so we have no idea where she came from. The pet...
Sorry to hear about El Tigre, our Mithu also had an e coli infection about 18 months ago, she had runny stools mixed with mucous and bright red blood..she also strained a lot in her litter box and would usually pass very small amounts of stool. Her appetite declined quite a bit and she was in a...
Hello everyone,
You may have read some of my previous posts on Mithu who passed away on the 14th of Oct this year. We always wondered what breed Mithu was and even our vet was never able to figure her out. We live in India and we don't get many of the breeds that rest of world has. I think the...

Thank you everyone for your condolences and wishes. It has been a difficult week for us and our home feels very empty at the moment. We are trying to get out more and we are trying to move on. I guess time is the only healer.
Mithu was the center of our lives for 15 wonderful years. When my wife was 13 years old she got Mithu as a little kitten, I only met MIthu 2.5 years ago when we got married, but I would count those 2.5 years as the most wonderful, joy filled years of my life. We all know that cats are not great...
Thank you everyone for your condolences and kind wishes. Mithu was doing so well and actually started walking a bit on Saturday night, however on Sunday morning she stopped eating and drinking water which was very unlike her. She has been really sick in the past but her appetite never ever...
Thank you all for your love and support. Unfortunately Mithu passed away peacefully in my arms about an hour ago. I can't write through my tears at the moment, but I would like to thank all of you for your kindness and tireless support through this difficult time.
