    Kittens growth chart? Large kitten?

    Gorgeous cat! And love that he's called Church too... Reminds me of the cat in one of my favourite series of books! I don't think my little one will manage to get to half of that size!!

    Kittens growth chart? Large kitten?

    Wow I really think I have possibly the tiniest kitten ever!! My Tom is almost 14 weeks old and weighs only 2.06 pounds!! He is very small built as well, and so was his mum- probably about 2/3 the size of an average full-grown cat. The vet weighs him every time I go in and even though he's been...

    Kitten with Colitis.... Advice needed pls!

    HELP- I JUST HAVE THE FEELING SOMETHING ISN'T RIGHT!!! He seems to be as full of beans as usual- I came home late from work today and he has been going mad since I got in which is good. But... I don't know what it is that's worrying me, but I definitely don't think things are right... he had a...

    Maine Coon cross??

    I did think it wasn't quite right that they had the enclosure partially open, but it wasn't really my place to say anything!! I would describe Tom as a shorthair, but he seems much fluffier than most shorthairs I've seen (my brother has two shorthair and one longhair cat, and I would say Tom...

    Maine Coon cross??

    Lol thanks guys!! I have no idea myself, and the mum is definitely a longhair I know that much, and that Tom looks very much like her and is almost as fluffy, so I was wondering if anyone thought she was anything in particular? And that definitely is the mum because I went to view the kittens...

    Maine Coon cross??

    As I said before, the mother managed to get into the neighbours garden and into their stud cat's outdoor enclosure. The mother was an indoor cat and was found in the enclosure with the neighbour's stud cat and since she'd never been with another unneutered male, that was obviously the father of...

    Maine Coon cross??

    So my little Tom (in my photo) is a British Shorthair Cross- his dad is a pedigree british shorthair, and the lady who owned Tom's mum wasn't sure if she was anything in particular.... however, I have recently seen some BSH x Maine Coon kittens that look exactly like my gorgeous Tom, so I...

    Kitten with Colitis.... Advice needed pls!

    Thanks Taxido, I will definitely get hold of some fish paste- I know the stuff so I'll pick some up from Tesco :) and now it's the weekend I can start on the boiled chicken!! I've been feeding him the pro-kolin mixed into Greek yoghurt at the moment because he loves greek yoghurt, and that's...

    Kitten with Colitis.... Advice needed pls!

    So, I took my 12 week old kitten to the vet last night and after carrying out the parasite tests (which were negative) the vet thinks Tom has a bout of colitis. He doesn't seem to think its too serious, he's eating and running around and being totally normal, but he has soft stools with a little...

    Kitten won't eat wet food unless hand-fed?!

    Thank you for your advice, it was really helpful :) The vet did say it would be fine to give him both the pro-biotic and antibiotic at the same time, but for best results, a couple of hours apart- in the morning I have to do them together because I already have to be up at 5am to get to work...

    How Do You Get Rid of Used Cat Litter?

    I currently use non-clumping litter and scoop twice a day, with scented nappy bags (diaper bags). We have communal outdoor main bins which are a walk from my house, so I have a 'cat poop bin' which is a lidded bin outside my door, hidden in a plant pot! I pop the bags in there and empty that...

    First time mum!!!

    Hi everyone, I'm Matty, I'm from the UK and I'm a first time mum to an adorable (currently poorly) little boy called Tom [i also have a hamster called Jerry lol]. He's a 12 week old British Shorthair x Maine Coon cross, and you can probably see him looking adorable (and slightly grumpy) in my...

    My cat has blood in/on her anus!

    Hi LittleMelissa, I have literally just come back from the vet because my 12 week old kitten seems to have been passing blood when he passes stools- I noticed blood on his anus as well, so I've just come back from the vet, and I can tell you what some of the possibilities are... It might be...

    Kitten won't eat wet food unless hand-fed?!

    Thank you :) That is him in my picture- Mr grumpy bumblebee (he did not enjoy that photo session!) So I've been to the vet (I'm in the UK, so took him after work) which I'm glad I did as when I got home, there was a little bit of blood and mucus in his litter tray. The vet tested his stool but...

    Kitten won't eat wet food unless hand-fed?!

    Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum, and I'm a first time mum to a now 12 week old little short-haired boy called Tom. I got him at 8 weeks, and he is tiny [he only weighs about 2.2lbs, but he was the second biggest in the litter], although the vet has said he is healthy and gaining weight as he...
