Big yawn from my big girl, Chloe

Maybe should do some gardening.

Vastra thoughtfully barfed neatly on top of a napkin that had fallen on the floor this morning.

I yawned looking at that pic ...

I think a nest must have fallen down in a nearby tree as Dylan keeps bringing in dead chicks :/ happy Easter!

A moral quandary: should one feel guilty if, upon entering a room, you wake your cat up? She seems happy enough to take a few head tickles before going back to sleep, so I don't think I'm going to hell (for that, at least).

Luka and Leia are two now - still very sweet.

Pub cat

Is that a pub in Streatham? If so, I think it's the same cat we saw on a (fairly) recent South London drinks meet-up!

 

[ddraig]

So Molly has been letting us take some of her fur out with no protestation recently
Also allowing brushing!
I'm finding it disconcerting and a bit worrying as concerned she maybe can't feel it?

Yes! It's Peto who lives in the Greyhound. Or the rabbit hole as it's now called

Also great cat spotting skills from that photo!

Sadly, it wasn't the cat I recognised so much as the table (we have the same one).

I'm a rubbish cat-lover!

On a less light-hearted note I'm really worried about our Paddy. He puked copiously yesterday afternoon and has been sleepy and not eating since.

We're taking him to the vet's this afternoon. Hoping it's just gastroenteritis or something he'll recover from quickly.

I used to take great pleasure in deliberately waking my boy cat up, the big face-swatting-at-5am twat. REVENGE

 

[donkyboy]

came across this. would love to get one for the girls

 

[Shirl]

Madge hasn't been well and she's been staying very close to Skye. Happily she's on the mend now though

How's Paddy oryx ?

Think I'm sleeping on the sofa!

Well, Paddy's in the cat hospital in Beckenham with pancreatitis. The vet told us today that he seems to have rallied round and is now eating and putting his paws up at the cage for some affection. Hopefully, we should be able to pick him up tomorrow. We can't wait to have him back. It's been worrying, tbh.

Thanks for asking KatyF (He looks very like your cat but with a bit more white on his nose!).

Poor paddy. Glad to hear he's on the up. x

get well soon, paddy

Thanks Calamity1971 and Puddy_Tat We're really curious as to what might have caused it. My OH is wondering if it was giving him some very fatty bits of salmon skin last week...

I don't think it's as clear cut in cats as it is in humans. I don't think a couple of fatty treats would cause it? When our animals get sick, we tend to immediately blame ourselves. Has the vet given you any clues to its cause?

I think she said something about fatty diet...he generally eats fairly good-quality wet food and biscuits, so probably not that. She did say it could just come out of nowhere, though!

Toby Toes wonders "Who's that handsome boy!"

 

[Manter]

When I came home late last night the cats pretended they were starving. They had already been fed twice as they pulled that stunt on everyone else in the house! They must think humans are stupid....
