    I am so sad I can't stop crying.

    I think your vet is very sensitive and wise and I can actually find sense in those words having lost two cats at a young age! You make them house cats to protect them but cannot protect aginst FIV and Cancer. Thank you for this post, it has made me think a little differently and will hopefully...

    Criticism over how much you spend on your cats

    Hi, I agree with everyone else, your money, your buisness!! With 14 cats with lots of different dietary needs my cat food bill would make many wince but, hey, MY MONEY, MY BILLS, MY BABIES so BUTT OUT!! I guess I'm lucky that while the people around me might think I'm a bit mad they accept how...

    put mouse in the water bowl...

    Hi, we have the toy in the water bowl issue, so I researched it and apparently the water bowl is seen by our fur babies as a safe place for fav. toys. Soooo, dunked toys equal happy cats. We dry em out on a radiator then just chuck the poor stuffed little buggers back to the hordes!!!

    Gift ideas for difficult husband??

    Hi all, I though I would take an opportunity to pick brains... My husband is such a difficult person to buy for and every Christmas I wander around picking things up, putting them back etc etc etc. He is a cat lover (obviously), loves gadjets and technology, is a bit of a kid at heart, very...

    Hi all, please can you share your experience and expertise with me. Those of you who know me are already aware that I have 14 house cats and that I also feed out door cats for neighbours.

    Snoring

    So 5am this morning and I woke up to a strange noise, now, I am aware Chezza Pie is a sleep snuffeler but this was more...and louder, I located the source to behind the bedroon curtains and there on her back, legs akimbo, was Coco, mouth wide open as the heating kicked in, snoring in a fashion...

    Any suggestions appreciated

    Well, Snowey was in the back of the kitty shack tonight so John took her food in there then we snuck off upstairs to watch her on the cctv cameras he has put in there (to make sure any puss using the facility is fit and well). She ate the lot then curled up on one of the cat beds he has built in...

    Any suggestions appreciated

    Thanks, we spent a really worried night last night as it was bonfire night and crackers going off all over the place! You can not emagine how relieved I was to see her tonight camped out under the covered feeding area John has made for her! Even better, she let me give her a rub and fuss while I...

    Need advice - meeting of house cat & feral

    Could use some emotional support

    By what you have said, you are already prepared for it, Even though you dont want to acknowledge it. None of us cope well when we lose someone we love. Please enjoy your time with your boy and keep me informed of how he is doing. My sister is a spiritual healer and if you would like her to send...
