Init!, pissed off/confused/unamused all for 2 minutes

ddraig we often have to do that with our two because Donut is a complete twat and twice Vivian's size, he hoovers up his food then shoves her out the way to eat hers

Such a pain isn't it, that's what Kizzy often does, tho sometimes sits and watches Misty eat
I've started picking Kizzy up and putting her in front of her bowl, sometimes works, call her a twat too

I used to have to separate Jakey from the others at mealtimes because when we first got him he was food-aggressive.

It did sort itself out in the end and he'll share now and won't overeat if dry food is left down like he used to - I think initially it was just due to finding himself in a strange place with strange cats and feeling like he may have to compete for food.

Radar we fed separately for the last couple of years of his life, after he'd been on a feeding tube he never did take to eating a full portion of food in one go again, monitoring his food intake was essential from then on and you can't do that feeding 3 cats together so he'd have his meals in our bedroom.

It's a bit of a pain but in the grand scheme of things it isn't the end of the world and a lot of people with multi-cat households have to feed separately for a variety of reasons, it's not at all unusual.

Saw this composed cat when going to the station.




And then good old feral bruiser Harry hanging around our front gardens as he finds another favoured spot.

Oscar the tripod from 10 doors down has come for a visit and Lil’ Bob is not a happy sausage

 

[stavros]

Beefy from a few doors down likes launching himself at my fingers to rub his nose. I think he missed this morning, and caught his (shut) eye instead.

I understand completely, my view of my cats is often that they are too close to my face for me to even take a photo - so I get it

Her more usual position: the sausage

Sonic spends a lot of his time kind of plastered against me - he is extremely affectionate and it is difficult to get photos of him when he is basically laying on me looking up into my face and wanting attention.

Best I have managed is asleep and clinging on me:

 

[Epona]

And he wanted to rub the top of his head on me (which we all know is a Cat Thing that they like to do):

Sonic is not massively purry, you have to put in some effort to elicit some purrs from him.

Jakey will purr if you just slightly look at him

Vic is a bit odd in that usually he’s a bit stand-offish but, when hungry, he demands stroking until he reaches a certain level of purring and only then will he eat. Weirdo!

This morning my old scrounger pal Bloom came in, found the laundry basket, did a few cat turns before working on his ablutions prior to settling down.
Lots of purrs.
(The Chinese say ‘Hulu Hulu’ to describe a cat sound we call ‘purr’)

Trillian has gone to the cat doctor for teeth extraction

However, we have now changed cat carrier. Before we used to put a traditional one then strap it on wheels and she would meow for most of the time during the 10 minute walk. Today was the first time in a cat backpack, or catpack. She complained at first but was silent for the whole walk. Bumped into a friend who said she looked very content gazing out.

No photo of it unfortunately in action, but look, it matches her little ears!

 

[smmudge]

All our cats are/have been strong purrers. I remember once when Dylan seemed to be snoring all the time, and I was worried there might be something up with his breathing. So I tried to listen to it when he was awake, but every time I put my head near him he would start purring

 

[smmudge]

Good luck at the dentist Trillian! Hope it all goes well

 

[LeytonCatLady]

My neighbour's kitten, Oliver. Because he's a black cat and quite far up, it didn't come out too well though

 

[Agent Sparrow]

Oh dear, had a call from the vet, Trillian robustly refusing pre procedure bloods without sedation so they needed me to pick her up and reschedule the whole thing to one of their branches where bloods can be analysed on site. I think the naughty cat warning at the vets must have fallen off their system.

Still, she’s happy to be home and eating.

I have a photo somewhere of her covered in my blood after a failed attempt at pill administration.

Oh my god.
And she's called Trillian.
Brilliant.
