Your daily cat and kitten news

Loki the perennially dim has a new favourite sleeping place:

There's a 2.5m drop onto a tiled floor Let's hope he doesn't stretch out too much in his sleep :rolleyes:
 
Finally have all 3 cats in the house together, now to put up with them all wanting to get out for an hour. Trip to the vets imminent (only vaccinations)! One of them is a complete nightmare to get into the catbox, so not looking forward to that!
 
Oh dear poor Willows, not a good week for her. Although she seems fine in herself, as she was last time, a growth has reappeared in her abdomen.:(
Back on the antibiotics, which fortunately she likes and will eat without coaxing/forcing.

Have you tried a top opening box or cage? So much easier!
 
Yes Marjorie falls for the old Dreamies trick too. I'm intrigued as to why they are SO irresistible, Marjorie appears to be possessed whenever Dreamies come out. She only has to hear the crinkle of the packet!

Yeah, I daren't even move the packet if Jimmy is in the house - he can hear it from upstairs and I hear the thump of him jumping off the bed. It's like crack for cats.

To me logic dictates they must be evil.. but on the other hand they do come in handy when trying to persuade cats to do things! philfire is convinced they lead to farts that smell like the undead.

Large Robert has become our daily alarm clock - at around 4.45am :eek: every fucking morning he decides that it's time for cuddles - so up the stairs he comes - onto the stepper at the bottom of the bed (he's bouncing off 20 years old so that's allowed) and then he very studiously walks up the middle of the bed until he get between me and Mrs Voltz where he, eventually after much faffing around, settles with his head on part of my pillow, lying stretched out between us and starts to purr his head off - Mrs Voltz, who could sleep through the end of days and would probably miss the second coming, often sleeps through most of this, but as I'm a fairly light sleeper and having an icy cold paw, often with extended "noodling claws", jammed into my back or shoulder, I'm fully awake - just intime for the alarm clock to go off a full 45 minutes later
 
I hope so - apparently it just got up and ran off again. going to keep an eye out for it.
 
(from foot of page 68, just catching up)

Well my feline total is now 7. Increase by 4 since I was last posting. Most days I don't notice there are so many but days like today when there's a chill in the air, I'm doing a bloody foot tango just to get to the loo.

Kinnell! festivaldeb called herself the mad cat woman when she had FOUR .... and since the oldest left us ( :( :( ) we still have three ....
 
Approving of all the new fluffy kitten and cat pictures!:cool: :cool: :)

One day I'll work out how :oops: to post pix of our three grumpy old fuckers ... :p

(They're lovely really. Honest. Just lacking in photogenic kitten-ness ... )

Flinty threw up. Nothing new here cos she's a ragdoll type with long fur. But she did it from the top of my nursing home chair, quite high, and it was very lightly digested dry cat food so it rattled as it hit the floor.
 
I'm not really asking for advice I'm just confused by the cat situation I find myself in.

My mum has two female cats - one is really smart and the other isn't. The smart cat is physically bigger and definitely stronger than the less smart cat so you would expect her to be the dominant cat, right? Well she isn't, in fact she is routinely bullied by the less intelligent and less physically imposing cat and all the classic signs of cat dominance are there. The smaller cat eats first, starts fights and the bigger and more intelligent cat really seems to hate it.


What if anything can be done about this situation?
 
Not seen Loki since yesterday evening - I don't usually see them at night anyway (shut them out the bedroom because they chase one another around/over/under the bed but he's usually in first thing :(

ETA - just come home. God knows where he's been but wherever it is, he's been asleep because he's got lots of energy :hmm:

Rusty used to do this - she'd often come back smelling of either:-

Fresh laundry

or

A ladies perfume that wasn't one of Mrs Voltz's

So :hmm:

Wonder where she used to go hiding
