That’s really helpful, thanks. The less enthusiastic one will typically run away but as soon as rough play is over they’re around each other and just hanging out. Sometimes, the less enthusiastic one initiates it too. He just gets more than he bargained for a lot of the time! Sounds like it’s...

Hi, I have two adorable BSH cats called Percy and Barnaby (they're on Instagram @percyandbarn, hehe...). They are half-brothers and are about three to four months apart in age. Percy is the elder of the two. They are good friends generally and they have no problem being around each other. They...

Hi all I am owned by two British shorthair kittehs called Percy and Barnaby. They’re 11 and 10 months old respectively. I thought by this age they would have reached full adult weight (which I understand can be between 7-9kg and sometimes even bigger). They’re both around 4.5kg, however, and...

Our youngest cat, Barny, has had a collar on on a short-term basis until he is microchipped next month. He's nearly 6 months old. We have two cats and one of them has digestive issues, so they have to eat separate foods, and so we have electronic bowls that open in response to a specific cat's...

I know that you can't generalise from individual cases but I have two BSH male kittens and have had no spraying issues. The elder of the two will be getting neutered in two weeks' time and my understanding is that if they haven't started spraying by then, they're unlikely to start after having...

If you're in the UK, try Feringa from Zooplus. It's great quality and, whilst I wouldn't exactly want to bottle the aroma of my boys' little brown gifts, it's not horrendously bad. We also SWEAR by the odour absorption superpowers of the Tigerino crystal litter we get from Zooplus. That changed...

You feed him 600g of cat food a day?! Does he eat all of that? I know it’s been said but the volume may be the problem here... that is way too much for a kitten.

Ps ours do not generally snore. (But they are still v young...)

I have two BSH kittens and they are adorable. I started with one though. They do need attention and, if you are working full time, I strongly suggest getting two from the same litter. My fiancé and I both work full time demanding jobs and we live in an apartment in London. We originally got...

Thanks. They’re now asleep together on our sofa snuggled up. What is your advice for how to proceed?

Also managed to catch them eating/drinking right next to each other... Starting to think maybe they’re fine and once Barny is older he’ll be able to fight Percy off properly...

We have an adorable blue British Shorthair called Percy. He’s almost 5 months old. We adore him. We were worried Percy was lonely so we decided to get him a friend. We got Percy from a lovely British Shorthair breeder and she was due to have some new kittens available. We spent Christmas away...

We got so lucky. She cried when she gave us Percy and almost forgot to take the money from us. She told us she always cries because she gets so attached to the kittens. The cats in her home, and the kittens, are really well looked after and she just loves them so much, it’s very apparent...

Ps, do people in this community frown on people getting kitties from breeders as opposed to rescues? I’ve wanted a cat for about 5 years and my boyfriend finally agreed on the condition that we get a British Shorthair... I saw the crack in that door opening and I walked right on through!!!

Thanks :) we’re away for two weeks at Christmas and the breeder Percy came from is boarding him for us... and she is also new kitty’s mum, so she is going to help with the introductions for us... but will definitely keep all of the helpful intro materials on standby...

We’ve tried loads of different litters and non-clumping crystal cat litter is the best we’ve found by a MILE. We use Tigerino brand from Zooplus and don’t have a bad word to say about it. Zero odour. It lasts for ages. Very light to transport. And Percy took to it instantly too.

Last one. The reason we chose the ledges was because when the door is open, the gap between the door and the wall is just the right size for these to fit. They’re pretty close together because Percy is still small. We could have gotten away with far fewer if he were bigger.

Another pic.

Hi all Just wanted to share a little DIY project we did today to try and give our kitty (Percy) some more vertical space in our living room. We had a bare drywall behind the door and decided to put up a little cat stairway... We used IKEA picture ledges (called Mosslanda) - mega cheap - and...

Just as an update as this is now a fairly old thread but I just saw someone liked a post here... this issue ultimately turned out to be dietary. The breeder had started Percy on Feringa chicken wet food. It’s a high quality German food. We bought a Feringa variety pack consisting of the chicken...
