I saw something nasty in the woodshed!
Probably shouldn’t like that but mine do, too.

I got it from ebay:
Scruffs Thermal Box Bed Dog Puppy / Cat Self Heating Winter Insulation Pet Sleep | eBay
It was delivered today, luckily. Yodel couldn't deliver it yesterday. I got got the medium one black and grey one.

Nobody ever said cats and a puppy would be easy, but bloody hell our two are even more timid then I thought. If they were my old semi adopted work cats, Morrisey and Marr, we would have a puppy with a bleeding nose by now who would have learned to not mess with cats.
However ours spent weeks basically hiding. Katniss was always going to be hard, but I may have mistook Odins very easy going personality as being a bit braver. The cats and dog are never in the same room with puppy out of her crate, but they are still pretty timid a month on and won't come in unless she's asleep. Except Odin had now taken to eyeballing her from the kitchen when she's safely behind bars, which proper freaks her out. The dick.

They'll have her under the paw soon enough. I lived for 6 months in a house that already had a resident cat (mean) and dog (giant dope). My cats and the other cat hated each other, but they all used to gang up on the dog ((Shiloh))

That's been my experience so far with other cats, but it appears mine are total wimps. Problem is they don't get it soon, it may be permanent seperatation as if they just run, she will chase. They need to stand up for themselves!

Atm she's still young and unpredictable, noisy and unknown. Once they work out that she's basically a friendly idiot (with your help, obvs, because you will train her to be no threat) they will feel safe to offer the necessary disdain.

Thanks, let us know how it works out - on paper it looks really good but a little on the expensive side (for me) to do as an experiment, so am eager to hear your review after it's been in use

We think my cat is going blindThe last few days (last night most noticeably) she's starting bumping into things and acting really disorientated and confused. She's nearly 18 so I'm pretty sure it's down to her age. She went to the vets just last week for a check up and had blood tests done which all came out really well & the vet said she was doing great for her age. Her eyes weren't checked though. We're not sure whether another trip to the vets is a good thing right now as it's likely to upset and disorientate her even more. I'm going to give the vets a call anyway just to get their advice
It was really upsetting to watch. She just wanted to sit on my lap and be stroked because at least then she knew where she was and what was happening.
If she is going blind, she will adapt. geminisnake , her old puss went blind, but managed really well, including getting up and down from the couch.
She was amazing, she had only met me once before, but the second time she recognised me (by smell probably) and started purring.

Effie, she belongs to next door, but chose to move in with us.

That looks great and the cats seem to like it - is that medium size? tbh Sonic and Jakey would probably sleep in a small shoebox together if they could, but an appropriate sized bed for 2 small/medium sized cats results in fewer of those squabbles where they smack one another.So after ignoring the present and being more interested in the box, they are now using the bed

yes, it's medium. bella and rogue can fit in there pretty easy. Chloe is, ahem, a rather big girl-to put it politely.

I think if I put some money aside for a medium one for Sonic and Jakey to share in the sitting room, and a small one for Radar which can go at the end of the bed between our feet, that would be the best arrangement. Of course they all need new scratching posts at the moment too!

I'd really like a Professor Yaffle bookend - they seem to be either really shit, or out of my price range though (well my bookend budget tends to hover around the £0 mark tbh)

They sleep in the strangest positions. That 'top of head on floor' one is amongst the oddest.

Beautiful Molly whether scruffy or no. Her tail is a whole other creature!
I was chatting to my next door neighbours at their front door when Missy appeared and tried to sneak into their house. She's got in before, through their upstairs windows during hot spells. It causes their cats, who respect her and are even a little afraid of her outside, to go apoplectic with rage.

Oh aye, they will fight for their territories.
