    FIP took my baby and I am devastated

    Love is Love The End! It doesn't matter what species died if you love that person, animal, bird, then the pain of losing them is no less. Grrr, I am glad you can come here because we understand the gaping hole it leaves when your soul mate leaves you. I am so sorry for your loss but she will...

    Euthanizing my cat tomorrow. I'm worried it's not time

    I'm so sorry but if it's any help, I would have done exactly the same, it's the kindest thing you could have done for her. She was suffering terribly and to be honest, that mass sounds like it could have been cancer. I had a dog who had a mass on his liver which turned out to be cancer and...

    I feel guilty about Mamushka

    Mamushka came into your life for a reason, she made your life whole and you made her life whole. She gave you a reason to go on because there's no greater force than love and now it was her time to leave having done a wonderful job of giving you a reason to live. Love can't be broken and...

    menta died this morning

    I'm so sorry, I will certainly send her loving thoughts and ask that she is looked after when she gets there. Her time was short but you loved each other and that can't be broken. In her short time she had the best life you could have given her, you didn't fail her, it was her time. Maybe she...

    cant stop crying

    I'm so sorry, there are no words to bring comfort when it's still so raw. Cry as much as you want, let it out. When you've finished crying remember the love you shared for 20 whole years, that's a long time in a cat's life but you couldn't let him suffer the way he was at the end, your love...

    bittersweet aniiversary for me and wobbles :(

    I couldn't have said it better myself Di and Bob! All they said are totally true, you're grieving and it's a natural process to healing. One day you'll be able to take out the photos and look at them with all their memories without breaking down. There's no time line on grieving, I lost my...

    Taking in a stray/feral cat - Outdoor to Indoor - My story and any advice welcome

    You're doing a great job Udonboy!!! Selina is a very lucky lady :) She is probably awake at night time because that's what she probably would have done in the wild, ferals tend to sleep all day and hunt at night so it's just a case of breaking that routine. From the amazing progress you've...

    Stressing about feral brought inside

    Well done for perseverance! I truly think that 'playing' is your way forward. Cats can't resist it! I rescued a Feral (one that would become one of many) and for the first 3 years I didn't see her, she eat, drank and used the litter tray but those were the only signs I had that she was still...

    one of my ferals died hit by car found her after work

    I'm so sorry Kevin, looking after Ferals is so hard because they're not domesticated and there's no real control but your feelings for them are the same as if they were tame cats living with you. Here in the UK we can buy heat pads, they heat up when the cat sits on them, it might be an idea as...

    Predicament Involving Three Cats and a Dog

    I can understand why you wouldn't want to medicate but perhaps while there's a settling in period it could help. The two of them are trying to sort out dominance and they might have to agree to disagree but the more familiar they become with each other the more they should settle down. They...

    Friend of Ferals Award Badge - Apply Here

    Hi to everyone, Kat0121 directed me here:) I started rescuing ferals when we were posted to Germany. I rescued a 6 week old Silver tabby, she remained feral the whole of her life until the very end when she ventured into the living room one day and sat on my lap! For the first three years of...

    Just arrived

    Hi Kat021, lovely to meet you! I've got an Auntie in Florida, do you know her? Ha ha. I don't have any photos but I will definitely get some now and post them on. I am hopeful she will learn to trust me, she is very young which is a bonus. My other two ferals were a little bit older when...

    Just arrived

    Hi Foxxycat and thank you for your welcome. That's good advice! She comes at the same time every day so I suspect she's hiding or sleeping all day somewhere. Unlike my other two ferals, Lucy and Whisper she looks as if she's interested in me. I caught her watching me with intent one day so...

    A Letter To My Foster Kitten....

    Aw Eatrawfish, my heart goes out to you but without foster carers like you these cats might not even be alive right now! My daughter does the same with dogs and it breaks her heart everytime one is found a home but without her the dogs would have been put to sleep so while your heart is...

    New here...

    Oooh, seaside town with a tower? Hmm, I'm in Bedfordshire and I can't for the life of me think where that could be? I can only think of one and it's where I originally come from, Seaton Tower in Plymouth?
