Your daily cat and kitten news

Just has the my insurance renewal through and they've virtually doubled it! He did have some expensive treatment done last year, so there is no-way I can get him insured elsewhere... Not sure anything can be done.
 
It might have been covered before but my observation of Bloom leads me to think he always leads with his left.
Is that or can that be a thing with animals or cats, left (or right) pawdedness?
 
Sonic had both his belly and a window on his side shaved for recent ultrasound tests (looks like he should be getting weird broadcasts onto his tummy like the tellytubbies), he seems to be enjoying it as much as I am when I stroke the velvet fuzz that is just starting to grow back in those places!

Definitely no venus cat trap going on here :)

(This is in addition to 2 shaved patches on his neck and 1 on his leg for previous blood tests, he gets balder every vet visit. The next thing is a urinalysis though which just means he has to piss in the goddam tray in the bedroom with the special litter for urine collection when he is shut in there by himself instead of crying because he has been separated from Jakey - we need to be sure which cat's piss is being tested. As it needs to be a fresh sample, I have suspended operation piss-collection until Monday morning, in the meantime will just try to get Sonic ok with being separated from Jakey for a few hours and comfortable enough with that to have a wee) :rolleyes:

Noticed last night that Donut's eye membranes aren't fully retracting- they're very visible and look quite weird/sore. He himself doesn't seem remotely fussed, still purring, eating, sleeping under the yucca, rolling about on his back like a twat etc. But he looks very weird.

I rang the OOH vet and they said that since he doesn't seem stressed it can probably wait till Monday, but I'm still a bit anxious. He is absolutely covered in nature's detritus (seeds, twigs etc) so I wonder whether something has irritated them.

Will take him in on Monday anyway. That'll be fun, he despises being interfered with.

Could just be an eye infection. If the vet isn't too concerned to get him in today, I wouldnt worry too much. She says being the worlds biggest worrier! Good sign that he's still active/eating etc.
