Tasha I am so sorry, Know that your love and compassion meant a great deal to your Uncle Rueben, to Twinkles , and to Vader. I cannot even begin to imagine what it must be like to lose three loved ones in such a short space of time. Michael

Thanks, I feel 43 though! I was actually trying to coax the cat to eat her food which had medication mixed in it when the shot was taken. Michael

This is my Zandi, a bad picture. She has taken to waiting at the door for Tuli to come back, and crying when I come through the door without Tuli. She is allowed on my bed now (Tuli had made the rule that she was'nt, not me) and is making the most of it! Michael

I'm so sorry Val. Know that she felt safe and secure with you. I have read than an ill cat will regress almost into kittenhood, but only with someone they really trust. It sounds as if Isodora was doing that, allowing you to "groom" her, purring whilst you clipped her nails, thus making you...

Trying not to be anthropomorphic, I hope Tuli would be proud that I didn't drink through this. I am a recovering alcoholic, three years sober, and I asked my vet to keep my wallet on that day, just in case. It was very close. My little Zandi doesn't know what to do, I have never seen her so...

Thank you all My vet Tina would not actually tell me to directly to have Tulisiwe euthanased, but said all that we can do is keep her comfortable. The night before Tuli was crying all the time on my bed and I could not put her through that. Non-animal people cannot understand the bond one has...

My Tuli died this morning. She developed an open sore on her side on her side on Thursday which was not responding to antibiotics, and she stopped eating and drinking. The vet was injecting water under her skin daily to counteract dehydration,and other meds, but by last night she had lost her...

One of my cats developed the same symptoms (little scabs & bumps around her neck) at a late age. I took her to the vet and the first thing he asked was 'does she eat canned cat food with fish?' Turns out she had developed an allergy to fish which is not uncommon in cats. Michael

My 20yr old had cat acne on her chin last month, and the vet said to dab the area with hydrogen peroxide on a warm cloth, and to change from plastic bowls. It was gone in a week. Here she is all pretty again! Michael

Thanks, I'll have to make screens, they aren't available here in the stores. And I live in Africa so can't keep windows closed, even the furniture dies in summer. She refuses to set a paw outside the apartment we are currently in, although she sits at the door threatening people and pigeons...

I'm having to move home with my 2 cats in a couple of months, and the prospect is terrifying me. One of my cats is elderly and blind and never leaves my side, but the 3 yr old is boisterous and extremely curious. My main concern is that I am moving from an apartment to a house. I would like the...

Hi, My name is Michael, and I have two cats, Zandile and Tulisiwe. Zandile is a pitch black three year old kitten (never grew up) I got her as a baby from a local Animal Rescue . I found Tulisiwe (bad pic attached) wandering in the Durban harbour many years ago. She is almost 20 now and has...
