Your daily cat and kitten news

A facebook 5 year photo reminder popped up on my news feed. this was a time when the girls used to like sitting on the ironing board. I remember this like it was yesterday. Bella sleeping the board and baby rogue jumping on and taking a nap next to her big sis

When my girls were about 1 years old, I used to say "come on" and point my head toward the door. All three would run to the front door as they knew that I was going to let them out. I dont recall at what stage they forgot this command but when I do it now, they just stare at me blankly like, WTF is he blabbing on about and shaking his head toward the door for?

When we last took one of the cats to the vet, he said they recognise the sound of about fifty words.

If that is true, then 'biscuits' 'get off' and 'vet' are almost certainly in the fifty in our two's case.

For my lot, "treat", "dinner" and "vet" are in their repertoire. They understand "No" as well but ignore it.

For much of his life, Radar was trained to go in the carrier on command "get in" - if I pushed the door of the carrier closed (but not fully latched) he would use his paw to pull it open, go in the carrier, and pull the door closed behind him. People don't believe me but I once had him demonstrate this in front of a friend who just sat open mouthed and speechless for a bit then muttered "I can't believe that just happened" several times.

He became less willing to go in the carrier when he was in and out of the vet hospital with health issues a couple of years before he died, and would no longer do his party trick after that.
 
This could be on either thread, but absolute scenes here. Considering we were seriously thinking the dog might have to go back to Battersea as they hated each other so much, 3 years of vigilance and patience later we get this ❤

Ours are both cats and they're about as likely to do that as Donald Trump is to admit that climate change exists.
 
Feeding ferals .

Mrs21 and our downstairs neighbour have started to gather today a mini army of feral cats, who seem to come daily for breakfast and dinner, sometimes there are 5 of them. Puisin is now reluctant to go into the garden (as she is a small cat)

They bought a cat shelter, then rigged up another one so that they could get out of the rain. Alas one of the ferals died in the shelter and we had to bury her in the garden:( Downstairs neighbour has now ordered another , proper shelter.

Anyone else have feral cats coming to visit ?
