Your daily cat and kitten news

:) amazing paws and cat!

Kizzy and Misty popped out from hiding late last night, Misty ran/trotted into the other room to use litter tray and Kizzy came towards sofa so I motioned for her to jump up, took a few strokes and a minute or two but she jumped up, then demanded strokes for a solid 40 minutes!! banging my hand with her head when strokes stopped and looking displeased whenever I picked phone up to take a pic.
Even sat on lap :)
Then went and squeezed her way back under units when I got up

That's a great step forward - She will claim full "ownership" soon - then the other will follow. :)
Indeed, was very demanding!
She was also quite wet round mouth/nose area, thought it was water at first but kept having the odd drip for longer than 10mins
A cold maybe? :hmm:
Also bit my hand (not hard) as a warning when I held her face a bit long to see if I could see what the issue was (I deserved it)
 
Think they're both under the units still tho, was hoping Kizzy would stay out but sure it will happen soon
 
Had Kizzy poke her head out again (after putting food out) didn't get pic, was going to post this pic of her eyes under the bath

Kept talking to her and waiting for her to come out

Our much beloved previous cat Buttons disappeared under our bathtub a few days before she gave birth through a small gap under the washbasin. The bath was sealed off with tongue and groove wood panelling so I went to fetch the screwdriver. However Mrs SFM had more luck with gentle cajoling and cat treats and she eventually delivered 4 kittens in a cardboard box behind the TV. They’re (loveable) buggers 😼
 
Out for a walk with dog and bump into security guard trying to get near a cat. Says it's been hanging round for about 4 days. I sat crossed legs on the grass and it came over and curled up on my lap! Bouncing with fleas and ticks. Very skinny ( doesn't look it in pic) tried to get it into a carrier and the security guard is bleeding somewhat.

Dylan dribbles a lot when he's purring, think some cats are just more dribbley than others, could be that?
 
Been in touch with local cat rescue ( tendercare ) and she's lending me a cat catching cage. She will check for a chip and search missing cats . If nothing found poor little skinny will hopefully get a new home. Another one has been spotted nearby , a skinny grey one. I'm thinking somebody has dumped two. Quite a way from any civilisation here.
 
Kizzy getting more comfortable last night, resting against me and even went to sleep a couple of times, still a bit weird now and then, hate to think how they were treated previously

Misty came out of hiding to use litter tray again and passed me whilst stroking Kizzy, Misty didn't hide in other room and ran back into kitchen and was eating for a while which was a relief as Kizzy eating from both bowls! (partner mentioned getting a bowl that only opens for specific cat, not sure that Kizzy wouldn't shove her out of the way when it opens mind!)
Glad Misty a little bit calmer, will take a while with her I think
 
She came out and joined me for the late night hedgehog watch last night. :)

That has been somebodies moggie.

My late black and white cat dribbled a lot more as she got older and I've noticed that now her sister is also getting a bit dribbly as she gets well into old age,
 
Radar used to be a dribbler - he was such a friendly little cat, he'd cuddle up in bed with you with his little face resting on your cheek and start to purr - soon the saliva would flow and he'd start dripping all over you!

Or worse was when he'd come up to give you a kiss while you were asleep and you'd suddenly feel a purry nose on your eyelid followed by a raspy tongue and a small flood of dribble. (Fortunately his massive whiskers worked quite well as an early warning system so you could move a bit)

He was like it his entire life.

My childhood cat definitely only started dribbling as she got toward her teens. She'd sit on your lap with her back to you, and within five minutes you'd feel a small wet patch on your knee.
