Your daily cat and kitten news

[sojourner]

Is he straining to go but nothing coming out? If so, he may have got a blockage somewhere. One of my cats did this years ago and when the vet gave him an enema a whole fish head came out so he must have been raiding someone's bins.

You can give cats the human drug lactose. I know the maintenance dose for cats prone to constipation is 2 mls a day but he'd need something stronger than that so best to run it past the vet first.

Not that I've seen, he's just not gone for at least 3 days, and normally has at least 1 shit a day. He's not drinking as much water either (maybe cos he's not licking all his fur off his legs now?). Tried him with a bit of milk, but that's done nowt.

Will see if this Laxapet shifts him.

I hope he produces something soon!

I met one of my regulars on the walk to work this morning, but forgot that whilst she's very affectionate, bouncing up to say hello, she also likes to bite your fingers as a sign of appreciation. When you stick a finger in their nose most cats brush it and the side of their face against it. She just tries to bite it off, all whilst purring.

This friendly chap was at Tesco this evening

Even in old age he's a handsome boy. I bet he was stunning when he was younger.

Jakey and Sonic back in the day

Waiting for someone to buy some beer for him.

How are all the cats doing with fireworks tonight?!

Kizzy was out earlier for a short while until a very loud bang sent her running in, locked the car flap for a bit and she hasn't wanted to go out, looked scared for a bit
Calmer now majority of fireworks have stopped

Haven't heard a single one. There were a couple at the weekend but nothing since

 

[May Kasahara]

My two don't seem to give a shit, although they are spending a little more time in the house than usual.

 

[oryx]

Loads around here. Paddy is quite a nervous puss generally, but luckily they don't seem to bother him.

 

[Epona]

I've never had an animal that was scared of fireworks.
Jakey just isn't bothered at all, neither was Sonic. Radar used to run to the window to see if he could see any pretty lights.

 

[RubyToogood]

When the fireworks started about a year ago I explained to Carrie that they weren't anything to worry about and she's taken my word for it mostly. A bit skittish this evening.

 

[Happy Tree]

I call Sammy "Storm Cat" cos when there's fireworks and thunder she's loving it up at the window.

 

[LeytonCatLady]

Lilith doesn't seem to mind the fireworks, it's my sneezes that send her diving under the bed!

 

[philosophical]

Bloom just now.

Even with Fireworks going-off right at the back of the house, mine didn't seem bothered at all. Came home early to see they were OK too..!

Jocky wasn't arsed either.

Gave him some Laxapet at 8am. Nothing happening yet. Will give him another dose at 8pm.

Come on Jocky, we're all willing you to have a nice big shit and stop worrying your humans!

He's definitely in his winter bag although still some way to go before Full Ruff is achieved.

I've changed his litter too, which as we all know, usually brings on a massive shite

Good plan, cats can be very psychological about their pissing and shitting habits!

Beautiful cats and awesome duvet cover there Epona

Ken helped with the shopping today He got really angry with the bag but I couldn't get close enough to get it off him. He got into one of the handles if that's not clear from the photo. Eventually he somehow slunk out of it looking ashamed.

 

[stavros]

In one of his rare "slightly angry, but not really" moods. He's looking for my hand, and whilst they may look like psycho eyes I know he's not going to do anything more than pat it, without claws.

 

[sojourner]

I hope he goes soon, we're getting on for 5 days without a shit now. If he's not gone by the morning, and I'm still testing positive, I might give him more milk. Am a bit worried now tbh.

Is he an indoor cat or does he go out? Lilith rarely uses her litter tray ever, and when she does it's just number ones. She generally prefers to do her business outside without me seeing, so I was wondering if that might be the case with Jocky.
