Your daily cat and kitten news

Mine jump up to the door from the sofa and then jump back down on it or down straight onto the ground on occasions.

Now she has come out from behind the sofa.... meet Juliet

Ghengis is.... not yet convinced

 

[fishfinger]

Ooh! she's gorgeous
Hope Genghis comes round to her soon.

That cat has got a ridiculously long neck. Regal.

She meerkats quite a lot too. And has a simply hysterical expression. She's quite a character

[trabuquera]

Oooh she's GORGEOUS. Somehow having a paler chin than Genghis makes her look even more imperious. What a mistress! I think she'll have Genghis slapped into shape before too long, as an ex breeding queen she'll know exactly how to handle small man(?)cats

I've dug out my old cat carrier (top opener) and going to try and get it tonight or tomorrow. The fact that it has started following me is a good start in my book and that's me with my dog in tow.

Just gets weirder. The polecat /ferret I spotted I'm now having to feed and catch. The rspca will only come for it once caught. He appeared today where puss has been hiding and he/she has moved to a nearby garage. Was a strange sight ferret and puss vying for bowl of food.
Crap pick. Meet puss and albino ferret.

Can you adopt them both?

I don't know the first thing about ferrets UnderAnOpenSky but in an ideal world I would. Durham ferret rescue is full as well. Poor little thing

I'm sure once you rescue it, you can find it home! When we went to the dog rescue place I saw them running round in their conservatory. Would freak our cats out though, Katniss is mega jumpy.

Although if you did want to keep it, I'm sure you could find an online guide, including putting them down your trousers.

Big news. Our new arrivals, Monty (top) and Willow (bottom), arrived on Saturday. Brother and sister, both with odd colour eyes. After a slow start, they now dominate proceedings round here...



Monty's first tentative box with Alfred:

They're gorgeous, but before I scrolled down properly and could just see the top of the pic, I thought for a split second it was Calamity1971's ferret!

 

[Manter]

Idiot cat is asleep in my chest having some reassurance. Actually impossible to photograph as he is so close- his nose is an inch from mine and my arms ache from holding the phone up! Poor confused boy

 

[Cloo]

Gsv tried showing Vastra a 'film for cats' of lots of birds in a bird bath. Fucks given by cat: 0.

 

[Orang Utan]

Calamity1971 could that ferret be a stoat? If it's a ferret, it's a feral one as they are basically just domesticated polecats.

 

[Calamity1971]

I spoke to the guy at ferret rescue Orang Utan he said it is a ferret. I live quite rural and you get the hunting knobs with terriers. He said ferrets are often abandoned. Its thumper city here and a prime location for the camouflaged elma fudds.

Kittens!!! Bel (after Belinda Carlisle) is the little black one. The other little lady is a bit nameless although Bea ( Beastie Boys!!) seems to be leading. It was going to be Barb or Babs ( Streisand!) but it doesn't seem to suit

They are bloody cute! Bit timid to start with but gaining confidence. Starting to come to hands for strokes.

The adult cats have had a range of responses. Bob, (big ginge) is being doting dad! Sits in the front room with them eatching from thre sofa and has been great for getting the kittens used to adult cats. He has been so patient. Walking away when they hiss and waiting for them to come to him and now they are happy to approach him. Blue ( fluffy b&w) is only interested in their food but is not bothered by them. Beau (champagne tabby) is a bit wary but food is enough to tempt him into kitten room. Moe (tabby) is most wary but she is approaching them for sniffs so only a matter of time. We've got the front room as kitten room so the adult cats have the rest of the house and garden kitten free!!

Pics!!!

Why are kittens so cute? It should be illegal.

 

[trabuquera]

Cotton wool floofy bobble heads full of marshmallow goodness! I am more jealous than I can say Mumbles274 of your six cat household. Where are you finding all these wonderful beasts?
Moar pix plz obviously. How is Beau reacting to not being automatically the best-looking creature in the house any more?

lamb1979 surprised me on Saturday with them, someone she knew on face crack.

Beau is still the most beautiful boy... He's consoling himself with that!

I'll try to get some play time video later, in the meantime.. Check out Dad on babysitting duty!!

First post here. Here's a photo from a year ago when this near dead little kitten was rescued and ended up in our house.

 

[LDC]

And here's the beast a year later. Never had a cat before, just dogs. I am a bit fond of this one though.

 

[LDC]

Although the early starts can be taxing sometimes.

 

[Vintage Paw]

What a transformation. A very handsome kitty.

 

[stavros]

I met both my non-housemates best friends on the walks to and from work today. One I've known for a while and always gets quite excited when she sees me. The other is newer, but she knows I'm a very good human, bounding over a grass patch to the footpath I walk along, before then having to leg it when a cyclist went past us.

 

[Mumbles274]

This should probably be in cuteness spoilers

 

[Puddy_Tat]

urban needs a *squee* button

 

[May Kasahara]

So many gorgeous kitties I really needed that today! Also I want a kitten

This is Ancho, my nearly 18 year old British Shorthair rescue cat.
