Your daily cat and kitten news

I've never had a long-haired cat. Is pooing as disastrously messy as I expect it is?

 

[High Voltage]

The poo'ing's fine

It just that, occasionally, 1st stage separation isn't complete iykwim <sicky>

longhair dogs are worse. i worked in a vets many years back and if a fit healthy animal came in with flystrike caused by shitty fur, it was always dogs. if cats came in with problems like that, then by the time they got flystrike, it was the least of their problems.

Stone, one of my long hairs, comes in sometimes with an odour. I tell him he's got stinky bum and to go out and sort it. He does most of the time but sometimes I have to break out the dampened kitchen roll and strong stomach to yank off the clag nuts and skiddy bits.

Depends on the cat. Stan's always immaculate. I suspect that might change when he's older.

She has emerged from the sofa and quickly explored the house - I think she is a confident one. Currently sat by the bedroom window watching pigeons.






Currently trying to think of a name....

Currently sat by the bedroom window watching pigeons.

AKA 'The Feline Shopping Channel' or 'Squeals on Wheels.'

 

[Vintage Paw]

She looks like a Deborah to me.

 

[Shirl]

Vincent ate his turkey and venison but left the sprout.

 

[pogofish]

My two tucked-in to a better meal than I today!

One is curled-up, warming my feet whilst the other is hogging the radiator.

 

[Geri]

After two months of confining herself to the upstairs of the house, Sophie came downstairs three times! I think the smell of chicken was too tempting.

Thanks for the suggestion, but she isn't particularly happy about it:

She looks like a Ziggy or Isis to me. I named my most recent brood by personal interests mostly, hence one named after my love of pork and two after my favourite band.

 

[Shirl]

Next door's cats have been here for more or less two weeks now. The even have their own cat bed to share.

Good god, you can't call her Isis. What would the neighbours think???

 

[Vintage Paw]

bi0boy - good luck with the white furniture

Ha! I never even considered that! I just thought she looked like a strong 'I' name cat.

tabby & white cats have evolved specially so that their hair shows on everything...

That looks like a page from the Toast catalogue

 

[bi0boy]

She just saw off the local tomcat. They stared at each other through the patio doors. He hissed, raised his hackles and then fled in terror.

Perhaps I will name her Boudicca or Persephone or something like that.

How about Aphra Behn?

Maggie.

Sorry.

Whatever you name her you will always call her something else. I'm sure most of my lot think they're called Oi or Packitin.

i used to live with a cat who was occasionally called "stop that you furry little git"



anyway, it's well known that cats have three names...

 

[oryx]

Three on a bed - me, partner and youngest cat. Cat starts complaining loudly about partner snoring. Partner wakes up and complains about cat miaowing.

Now partner is complaining about cat snoring.

One of my farted mid cuddle the other day. I was unaware of the noise being an emission until I smelt it then I got cheeky "Love you Moma" grin.

Charlie's got a new name since he's had his teeth out. Fatty Bojangles.

He's really had no problem putting on all the weight he'd lost.

Mostly though, it's Monkey, shitbird, shithead, wanker, fnuffywuffy, NO!, STOP IT!!, mummy's little crunchy nut cornflake (idek), treacle (which sometimes morphs into mummy's little trickle down economics... shut up, stop judging me )...

I could go on, but I should probably stop now.

 

[Vintage Paw]

And of course, his stripy worm (aka tail) is called Gerald.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one. Grey is mostly called Little Bit and the others have assorted names from spud, oi, willyougetoutfromundermyfeet, tubby custard, chief, fuzzball, you little shit, tubby bugger... This week it's mostly do you have to follow me everywhere.
