Your daily cat and kitten news

Well still can't get Buster's thyroid levels right despite juggling the medication levels. He also needs a biopsy for a growth on his neck the vet has found that is probably not related to the thyroid condition. All quite expensive at a time when funds are tight. Anyway, he's had a great retirement the last four years for an old Croydon tom.
 
is house of psychotic women worth a read?

It's worth a read but I'm not sure how well it works. The first half is an autobiography of how the author relates exploitation films to her life story. The second half is reviews of the films discussed and I haven't read that part yet. I've come across Kier-La Janisse on film podcasts and DVD extras and always think she has an interesting take on exploitation and horror films. She certainly knows her stuff.

good luck :)
 
It takes effort to exert one's claws, right? So why, when you're otherwise very contentedly celebrating your very existence whilst sitting on your pet human's lap, leave some sticking in his leg? And why show such incredulity when, after several polite vocal requests, he adopts the manual tactic for removing them?

We are currently having a battle with a tabby who keeps coming in and eating food. I can tell when it's him eating as he has a collar and it clinks on the side of the bowl.

My two don't give a shit.

We have a chip reader cat flap but it stopped letting our cats in a while ago so we have taking the batteries out.
Plus we have the back door open quite a lot of the time anyway.

As soon as he hears a human coming he's off and we end up just seeing a tip of a tail going out into the garden.
 
I rather cruelly woke up the Siamese who lives a few doors down this morning. He was fast asleep on the footpath, with his back to me. I stroked him and he jumped a mile. He soon saw it was me though and, remembering I was a good'un, rolled over and we commenced tummy-tickling.
 
These 2 never sit together like this.......I do wonder what prompted it lol

WANT! (but would probably live in fear of...)


Sonic is the same breed as that cat, and his fangs are nearly as prominent (not as bad as that mind you, that is fairly extreme - it isn't a desirable trait in the breed, but it crops up occasionally - not often, (my other OSH Jakey who is closely related to Sonic has perfect jaws) - due to the long jaw, as long as it doesn't interfere with eating a little bit of overbite only really matters if you're showing cats or breeding). OSH are very very loving cats, nothing to be feared :)

Sonic is getting a little elderly and one of his upper fangs has been surgically removed (for reasons not related to the slight overbite) - so he is now only half Vampire kitty. And sometimes has a little trouble closing the lip on one side of his face because there is no upper fang to slide it into place (again, not related to the overbite, this is common in cats that have had to have an upper canine tooth removed). So he now sometimes has a fang sticking out on one side and his lip hitched up on the other, he's just beautiful though, and I love him, he does sometimes get called mr wonkyface when he is pestering me for cuddles though :D

EDIT: (He is also frantically searching behind the monitor for the kitty interloper since I played this video. He's a very dominant cat, I do not think he wants to make friends).
