I'm just so sad at the moment. I left for NZ from Japan at the start of July, leaving Ginger with my husband and 2 weeks later she just vanished. She's such a friendly cat that we're all hoping that she has been cat-napped rather than any alternative. She hadn't been able to eat cat biscuits for...

A friend on mine has a sweet little kitten who has decided that her huge feather and down duvet is THE place to go to the toilet. Now, I can understand the attraction of the smell of bird feathers but its coming into winter in the southern hemisphere and so the duvet is getting washed and put...

After reading one of the other threads I'm suspecting that perhaps Ginger has this. I find the vets here quite hopeless and so consult the wisdom of this website. When I found her, one eye was just about turned inside out just like on the herpes website and ever since has always been a bit...

We've had to stop feeding Ginger her Royal Canin biscuits which she been eating since a wee kitten as within a half hour of eating them, up they come! The vet thinks perhaps shes developed an allergy to them??? She has always been free fed and grazed her bikkies by day when she felt like it but...

For the last 6 months my puss has being getting these weird raised red spots in little clusters, the vet has no idea what it is. The fur around it falls out then it bleeds off and on for a few days and finally it heals up. Other than that, she's healthy. Apart from throwing up her biscuits all...

I had to leave my 7 month old kitten with my Husband in Japan while I went to NZ to have my baby and was sooo worried she'd forget me. I needn't have worried, Tiara got the lick of approval within a half hour of getting in the door and she was up to her usual stalking games with my 8...

We finally got around to getting her spayed and the only appointment they had was xmas eve. DH got her home today and to express her gratitude she peed on the sheepskin rug. And to top things off she has a georgeous pink bucket collar to wear and to show what she thinks of that has been busy...

My Mums cat has always been what I would call a nervous wreck, if he was a human I would say a paranoid schitzophrenic. He's 10 years old now and any kind of change - furniture/visitors/food/ other cats, you name it, gets him all upset. She would like to know if there is any kind of chill...

I'm back in NZ (bubba due March) until April and had to leave my girl Ginger behind with DH. I am really missing her and feel so sad for her being home by herself all day while DH is at work. She has always had me at home to give her cuddles. I was her private sleeping cushion and was trapped...

Do you think it's ok to put a little chest rub under her chin where she can't lick it to help keep her nose clear? My girl Ginger is on medication to clear up a cold and comes wandering into the room in the early hours for cuddles, her snotty breathing wakes you up! Wish I could get her to...

I (Ginger) have caught a cold but has had no contact with any other cats and only go out occasionally on a harness and lead. So how on earth did I catch cold except from my 3 humans that are all sniffling, coughing and sneezing? I went to the vets this morning and got a shot {{{hiss}}} and 5...

It's RANT time, can't hold it in any longer. My &%$^% father called yesterday, all chirpy and how are ya, blah blah blah. Haven't heard from the guy for almost 4 years He's all .. -I found your ph # in my wallet and thought I'd see if it worked (4yrs and this is the first time he saw it gimme...

My puss started sneezing last night (so cute when she does) and she's still going today. The question is do I just treat her like a kid and keep her indoors and warm until it clears up or off to the Dr's straight away. I mean, it's not like I can make her a lemon tea now, is there anything I...

The Kitten is all pished off with me caus' I bandaged up her foot. Whenever she gets tired, bored or hungry she starts sucking and slurping on the one poor paw. The fur is starting to wear thin and its not white anymore. Time to break the habit Puss! I've tried rubbing lemon into it but who...

I'll get things started. My girl likes to hang out in the bathroom with you while you shower, now Japanese bathrooms are like a large shower with a bath in it. Ginger likes to sit on the bath cover to watch us wash, last night she decided to walk around the edge, hit a slippery spot and fell...

All the labels are in Japanese and I can't really choose from the information given on the product webistes. I 'think' that going from the information I've read that Eukanuba is the best with the highest protein count of 36%. Is it true the higher the protein the less they need to eat of it...

My little girl has fallen asleep in my arms after sucking her paw to sleep. Now she has a soggy right paw and her little tongue is sticking out a little. I started thinking as I sit here, my arm starting to get sore from holding her, that she needs some peer support from fellow suckers. She was...

Ok this is pure curiosity. My Mum's been asking me for the last 5 years which way the water goes down the sink in Japan/northern hemisphere and I've never looked until last night. It goes down clockwise. Your turn . . . which direction does your water go down?

My little angel has taken to climbing the flyscreens in the apartment, THIS CANNOT HAPPEN. Its a rental and I CANNOT afford to replace them. I've tried flicking her nails from the opposite side and hissing at her, telling her "bad girl" and giving the screen a good rattle, but she gets so...
