Treasure has Championed in both CFA and TICA, but she is not a Judge friendly cat.  She'll get all sorts of torbitude with them.  However, even with the attitude, the judges think she's beautiful and have commented that her attitude is what's holding her back. I've been taking her to PetCo and...

At the Houston Cat Show, I had a sitting for each of the Wegies.  This is Treasure aka Miss Hissy Pissy Pants - she's 18 mos old in these shots.  She's a brown patch and white mackerel tabby (CFA) or a brown (black) mackerel torbie with white (TICA).  She's also a Champion in both CFA and TICA...

I'm about to register my girls with TICA. Trinket has a blue slip for TICA and is already registered with CFA.  Treasure wasn't blue slipped even though both mom and dad were TICA and CFA.  I've gotten the certified pedigree from CFA and, obviously, I have her CFA registration. My concern is...

I finally managed to get my girls into a show since work had a stranglehold on me. Treasure got her Champion (even if she wasn't happy about it) and Trinket got a 9th best kitten. Treasure (18 months) trying to decide if she was going to cooperate with me after the fourth ring (by three, she'd...

My second NFC came home yesterday.  I hadn't planned on a second quite so soon, but my 17 year old just gets too tired to play with the one year old and a kitten is a good playmate, or will be when she gets used to us and mine to her.  Trinket is a brown patch tackerel tabby with white. I've...

I'm wondering what people's experience with Royal Canin has been in comparison to Nutro.  I've just brought home a new baby and she's been raised on Royal Canin where as my two are on Nutro.  I've got enough Royal Canin kitten and Nutro kitten to make a slow transition, but I'm curious what...

I'm working with a breeder and have a kitten on reserve.  However, I've recieved an email that told me the mother (and probably the babies since they are now losing weight) has been diagnosed with Coronavirus, Clostridium Perfringens and Trichomonas Foetus diagnosed through a PCR panel run that...

I mean CAT foot size (I realize where that question could have gone). In puppies, you can generally get an idea of the size of the adult dog by the size of the foot.  Does the same hold true in young cats? The reason I'm asking is Treasure's feet span a good two inches when she splays them out...

She was sleeping on a box and I couldn't resist this angle.

This winter I purchased an outdoors electric grill and it's been sitting near my patio door.  Then in January, Treasure came home and she adopted it as a "bed". I want my grill, but I would like to replace the perch aspect with a large square kitty bed / perch thing.  Does anyone have any...

Hi there, My former mother in law (in her 80s) has a female feral that carried her kittens into the garage and is now hiding in there with the litter.  She's been feeding the female for a couple of months and refused to do a TNR.  And now, we have kittens. She wants to keep one of the kittens...

Treasure is right at nine months old.  She's a pure bred Norwegian Forest Cat whom I intend to show and breed when she's 2 or 3 (no kittens in her immediate future).  Over the past few days she's become *much* more talkative.  And tonight when she was getting her back rub, I scratched the top...

Today Treasure met the fun of Da Bird.  I'd read about them on the board and decided to pick one up when I picked up food. It's amazing and she adores it.  She was running all over the room, doing back flips and side flips not to mention the end for end mid air tumbles.  I never knew that the...

The girls are finally playing together.  It's taken two solid months, but Precious is finally doing something other than hiss and growl and swat at Treasure when playing.  They now chase and flip chase, paw each other, play pawsies in the crinkle tunnel and last night I found them both playing...

When Precious feels lousy (which is most of the time), she lets her self-care go.  And, she typically has a huge "need" to eat the comb when I try to comb her.  She has a thick double-coat so brushes do little to nothing on it. Today though, I bribed the heck out of her with kitty treats and...

It's hard to belive I've had her two months - while the other one may not agree; I can't imagine life without my kitten. She's just over 6 months old. One of Treasure's first conquests was the belt from my housecoat so since it was ready to be washed and we're having warm weather now, she's...

The purr pad was supposed to be the baby's, but Precious seems to like it more.

Right now Treasure is eating ~4.5 oz nutro wet blended with 2T pumpkin & 2T yogurt; about half a cup of red moon / nutro blend dry; and then 2 oz nutro kitten mixed with another tablespoon of yogurt.  Fully grown she'll be between 8-12 pounds and she's almost 8 months old.

I'm so incredibly excited. For the first time since January 29th (when I got her) Treasure had a mostly solid poop in the litter box.  We've been fighting coccidia and then bad tummy bacteria.  So, earlier in the week we started on a crazy blended food and today it was mostly solid.  Maybe I...

Just checking for opinions here - Precious is CRF and picky picky picky!  Treasure is a kitten and will eat ANYTHING that isn't nailed down. I've been mixing yogurt with their food every day since I've had to treat for coccidia.  Renavast is sprinkled over Precious' food.  And she's got a...
