    Putting my fat cat on a diet!

    Hello everyone! I have some questions about diet, but before I start... My gorgeous Lily got back from the vets just before after having her tooth pulled out and all is well! The vet said I need to give her antibiotics, watch her mouth for swelling, and he showed me that mother of a tooth that...

    Lily swallowed a piece of string!

    Lily jumped on my bed at 8am this morning and woke me up with a (literally) 13 INCH LONG piece of string (like a thin cotton string) hanging out of her mouth!! I thought it was just in her mouth so I pulled, and she made a choking noise so I stopped straight away and freaked out - I called the...

    Poop analysis

    Hi everyone, Lily being my first indoor cat, I've started monitoring her poops... They're really disgusting! She poops right next to the litter box, but I think it's a matter of her not liking to poop where her pee is, so have bought her another one which seems to have fixed the problem, but for...

    Lily thinks she's a meerkat!

    I love this about getting a new cat - seeing their personality slowly unfold. Lily does this thing where she sits back on her hind legs and puts her little paws up - JUST like a meerkat does! It's so cute! Memphis jumps on the table and actually hugs me - puts his arms around my neck! - when he...

    Uh... I think my birds like millet.

    They get one spray of millet once a week as a treat, and to be honest, I don't think there's anything they'll go more crazy over... Aren't they cute The little lovebird's name is Harry, the grey tiel is Pretty Girl (shh) and the one with the yellow head is Pretty Boy. You can tell when I got...

    Leather shoes?

    I bought a new pair of shoes just yesterday. I have never ever seen this happen before, but Lily is licking them all over and rubbing up against them and even went to sleep on them! They're leather, I'm wondering if they have some sort of taste to them?! I put them in the closet because I'm...

    Signature too big?

    Hi, I've changed the size of my sig a few times... At first it was too big, then I changed it (couldn't find the rules... duh!) and it was STILL too big. But then I found the rules and changed it to what I thought was right... Here's a pic of it now... Can someone tell me the exact dimensions of...

    Furball management?

    Hi everyone, I've had longhaired cats in the past (primarily actually) but never had a problem at all with furballs. Lily cleans herself a LOT more than any other cat I've had, and sheds a lot too. Since I got her, she coughs up about 1 furball a week! It really isn't good for my carpets, and...

    Toffee and Molly!

    I just was digging around and found a few photos of my old cats Toffee and Molly. In early 2007/late 2006 Molly was attacked by a dog next door who had jumped the fence and gotten into our courtyard. The dog was honestly just trying to play. Molly was a manx, and, like most other manxs had a...

    Memphis and Lily meet

    As I type this, I'm sitting on the toilet (the lid down of course) in my bathroom, watching my two cats meet for the first time. This was not planned. Memphis lives next door with my little sister (he's HER cat) ever since we moved a few weeks ago, but he misses me and often tries to get over...

    Introducing Lily to Pascal

    Hello everyone, Another update on Lily - I've just gotten her and today is the day we introduce her to Pascal (A Bichon x Poodle). We just did it then. He was surprisingly good. At first he barked lots but he's obedient so we shut him up. Then it was a matter of me supervising as pascal put his...

    Wet food?

    My new girl Lily who I only got the day before yesterday won't eat much of her wet food... I went out and bought her a big range of stuff so I could figure out what she likes best, but gave her the same dry that she was receiving before. So the first day I gave her salmon stuff... she didn't...

    Some good news... Some not so good news.

    Let's start with the good news! I got my beautiful girl! Her name is Lily and I love her. I'm waiting to get my mum's camera so I can take some pics of her. At first she hid under my bed, but by night time she smelt the (human) salmon we were eating and couldn't resist coming out! She has been...

    Can you think of a name for my new kitty? Pics!

    I went to visit an 18 month old kitty today. I intended to have to come home and think on it... not make any quick decisions... But the second I saw her I knew she was the one I'd been looking for all this time =] When I walked in she was scared yet friendly, trying to sniff me without getting...

    Cat carriers

    I just realised that I don't have one! Never needed it, we had a little one for Memphis and I lent it to an old friend and never got it back... So now that I'm getting a cat in a few weeks I thought I should get one. Rather than the ugly (IMO) plastic things, what does everyone think of...

    And, yet another "what breed for me?" thread...

    Hello As some of you may have perhaps read, I am looking at getting a kitten or cat in just a few weeks. I went to visit two little handraised babies today and decided that they weren't for me. For some reason I have the feeling that I should be looking into purebred cats... If I can't find a...
