Haven't posted in years, I'm more of a reader.
I have three cats, Espie, is a pure lumpy lovebug, and never causes me any worry, the problem is Stinker, and, I assume, Mica.
Mica is now a geriatric lady, and we've been companions for years, I acquired stinker about 3 years ago, when she was...
I joined this site many years ago, and then faded out, so I felt a reintroduction was probably in order.
My name is Mandi, I had three cats, Sam, who passed yesterday, Mica, who's still with me, and Mala, whom my mother adopted.
Quite frankly, my baby girl is at a loss without her fur-pop and...
An' I wanna reju-reji-SAY a komplante. I wuzent feelin' good, but I wuz doing ok by drinkin' lotsa water, it hert to peepee but drinkin' lots made the hert less.
Do you think mommy felt bad for me and snuggle me? NO! she took me to the BAD PLACE, and they stuck a big sharp thing in me and took...
So yea, I've been having a heck of a time trying to get Mala's nails clipped. She growls whenever I touch her paws and starts yowling and clawing. So I read a few things on here, and found her on my bed all purry and sleepy, started petting her and telling her what a good girl she was and had a...
I know it's odd that I lurk mostly, then pop out of the woodwork for a posting spree, but I'm kinda shy, and when I do post, it's 'cause I know you guys understand, being cat-people...
That being said, I need to ask, have you ever had roommates? I mean the really annoying kind?
Most stuff I can...
Not that I'm complaining mind you, it's just not like her
Usually she's pretty aloof, hates being petted, she'll head-butt if I put my hand down, kind of a "Hey, ma, how's it goin'?" then goes off to do her own thing. Affection has always been on her terms.
But the past week, since her vet...
Does anyone else hold conversations with their kits?
I'm not talking the usual, like when you get home, or at snuggle time and you ask things like "how's my baby?" or whatever. Cause I know we all do that
I'm talking that Sam has this meow that sounds like a baby's cry that I can imitate...
yep, having a caffienne fit. But my kitten is sprawled on her back, right down my left arm. Her back paws are hanging off the chair, and she's purring up a storm. I don't think I'll be allowed up too soon *sighs*
So, I'm sitting here, lurking as usual, and Mala, my kitten decides to jump up for a snuggle.
She writhes around in a frenzy of purrs, and then climbs up and starts licking my nostril. Not just my nose, we're talking tongue in nostril (that HURTS btw)
Anyway, Sam goes for my right ear, Mica's an...
I'm just kinda curious.
With all of us running around doing for everyone else, is there anything you do just for you?
What I mean is, I have a whole stash of christmas movies, and I just love to take one day by myself and sit around in my pajamas and watch them all with a cup of hot chocolate...
well, I *had* an appointment for Mala's first shots today...but that went down the tubes. I woke up this morning and Mica's eye was all runny, not the usual "stressed out" runny, but half-closed and some yellow stuff coming out.
So, thankfully I have an AWESOME vet, they let me exchange cats and...
OK, I'm not sure if this belongs in behaviour or health, but I'll give this a try.
As posted before, Mica and Mala (my kitten) have become fast friends, they play and sleep together, all's good, except that Mica doesn't seem to want to eat "big girl" food anymore, she wants the kitten's food...
So, I came home from work tonight, spent some time with Mica and Sam, then went to spend some time with Mala.
I put her in her bed, and shut the closet door and came out for a drink of water, and I hear chirping coming from my room.
I looked down the hallway to make sure Mica was ok, she usually...
I just got back with my "dumpster kitty" from the vet, and she is definately a girl! We didn't vaccinate (she's too small) they figure she's just at about six weeks old.
She turned out FIV and and FELV negative, though she has some sneezing issues and my vet reccomended I keep her seperated for...
Well, I ended up getting one of our "dumpster kittens" last night, a sweet little slip of a thing at six weeks old.
She (I think it's a girl) is installed in a huge closet with her things, food, litter, water, toys and her security towel
It's gonna be a long haul, So far Sam has sniffed around...
