Cupid's biting Opal and I don't know if he's being mean (which is totally not like him!) or if he's just trying to get her attention. I've seen him bite her before, but it was when they were playing and she HATED it. Then just now, Opal was sitting in my lap and Cupid was sitting on the keyboard...
I got Opal several weeks ago, but it's been rough. Now it's finally semi-normal around here and I feel like I can finally celebrate her arrival!
You can see more about the journey here.
She meows a lot!
But she finally got to where she can stay still, calm down, relax and snuggle. Now she...
I was petting Opal and she started acting like she was going to cough something up, but she didn't. Then all of the sudden a bunch of white sudsy bubbles came out of her mouth. This is the second time tonight it has happened. The first time, I wasn't sure what was going on because she was in her...
I brought home Opal tonight, and she's been really scared. I had her out of her carrier in the car on the way home (about a 3-4 hour drive because of traffic) and she curled up on my lap and slept the whole time, but she would hide her head whenever I tried to look at her. Then, when I brought...
s/he's still cute! I was looking through some pictures and found these. I took them about a year ago! I thought I'd share because it's such a cute cat. I love those big round eyes!
It was an outside (or feral, I'm not sure) kitty that came up to me while I was outside and started meowing...
The girl I'm getting Achilles from emailed me and wrote that Achilles developed a bladder infection over the weekend. She said it could be cystitis; he feels like he has to pee all the time. She said this is the second time he's gotten it, and is 1 year old.
I have a feeling she hasn't taken...
I saw this and I thought how cute for kitty grass!

Of course, the urns would probably be knocked over, and the rocks kicked out...
I don't watch the Real World, but apparently this girl, Melissa, was on the New Orleans season and she had a friend there who she finally got a hold of, and asked him if he wanted to say anything to the people that go to her website.
I just thought it was a raw, emotional, passionate letter...
Cupid was playing with a toy mouse that the woman I get his food from gives him sometimes, and he made a weird noise so I looked at him and saw the mouse hanging out of his mouth by the tail. He was batting at it trying to get it out (gently; he wasn't freaked out by it yet)! It was in his...
Are furry cat tree/gym/condos good for cats? I'm just wondering because I was looking for a cat tree but the one I want isn't available anymore. I'm disappointed in other styles compared to the one I wanted, but some of the furry ones (i.e. not carpeted, but covered with a plush faux fur...
My poor baby. He has really soft stools, but I wouldn't say runny like diarrhea, though I suppose it is. I switched him from raw food so this canned is quite a bit different to his system. I couldn't mix it with his raw food b/c I read that mixing cooked with raw will make the food take longer...
I was going through some pictures of Cupid and when I got to this one I thought "Wow, he looks just like a kangaroo!" Now everytime I look at it I laugh! He really does! I don't know how I didn't see it when I took it.
I had to share!
I've been feeding Cupid raw food with a bunch of other ingredients - the recipe created by (holistic) vets - and he loved it. I loved giving it to him. Well then I got sick. I got food poisoning and I am 99% sure it's because when he's done eating, he'll come back to me, give me kisses or rub...
I'm worried that my kitty is too attached to me. He has always been really affectionate, but he turned into being a really clingy cat. Not that I mind - I love it! But I'm not going to be around as much eventually b/c I'm getting a job. Right now I am home during the day, and only gone for no...
How do you guys keep your indoor kitties inside?? I'm terrified Cupid is going to get out. When doors open inside, he darts to them. He's been pretty uninterested in the outside doors so far, but last night he got a little closer. What can I do to keep him from getting out? I'm so worried b/c...
How can I keep Cupid from jumping on my face and head at night? He's scratching me up! Luckily he hasn't clawed my face yet, but it's only a matter of time. I tried sleeping with my head under the blnkets but I can't sleep like that.
He's not scratching on purpose, he's just trying to get up...
I got these pictures the other day and thought I'd share. A lot of y'all were curious about how he feels and it's so hard to explain. These pics of him in the sun really show his "fur." He has down-like fur on his body, and his paws have more velvet texured fur. His face and ears have fur like...
Cupid's still not back home yet. Here are some pictures his breeder sent me.
Checking out his new bed.
What's it taste like?
Getting beat up by his sister Fluffy.
With Fluffy and another sibling.
My favorite! He's sleeping. That's his daddy behind him nearest the wall.

I've heard a lot from both people who think dry food is better, and people who think wet is better. My breeder says that Cupid would like the variety of both, but she thinks dry food is better. She fed Cupid Royal Canin kibble and watered it down a few times a day. Well, Cupid will NOT eat it...
Finally!!! I'm soooo happy.
I put some sweaters on him and he didn't mind at all. He acts like they're not even on him.
I'm not that great at taking pictures.
