Hi All, Just thought I'd update, my Kittems does not have hyperthyroidism like we thought, the vet said she is in perfect health besides being on the heavy end of a healthy weight range so she's actually on a bit of a diet! I also got her microchiped and vacations up to date - side note, we...

Thank you all for your help, I am taking her to the vet this Friday :) :) will let you know what the vet says

*** i just did a quick research on hyperthyroidism and agree that her symptoms do possibly reflect this, she is 6 turning 7 and is also suddenly very active at random intervals, moreso than normal. I will relay these symptoms to the vet. Thank you so so much. No matter what the price, I need to...

Thank you very much. I will organise this for the next possible appointment this week coming. By any chance do you know the approximate cost for a general check up and blood test? I am from Australia but an idea of what to expect would be appreciated even if it may vary from country to country...

I am unsure if my cat is showing signs of illness or if I am being overally pedantic. My cat is a fairly silent cat, she doesn't meow much unless for food in the mornings to wake me up, even her purr is barley audible; her previous owner mentioned that her purr was almost silent.. anyway she has...

So cute!! Loving these responses!!!

Thank you Di and Bob! Yes, my dear friend is going through many ups and downs as you can imagine. Some days are better than others; she has washed the bedding and bowls as you suggested and also has put the cat toys in with the cat nip, your reply was very helpful and I was relieved that I was...

Hi all, my ffriend lost her kitty of 7 years (we are 23 so it was a cat given to her in high school) as he got hit by a car. She is very upset as you can imagine but is thinking of getting a new bundle of joy to replace him. It's been a month or so since the accident and I just wanted to know...

Omg!! I died with envy and happiness looking at your catio!!! I would just love to be able to do that here!! It's purrfect and brilliant! And yes! I was thinking of quite a large outdoor enclosure if I was to purchase but in saying that I'd have to ask my housemates first as it would be unfair...

With an indoor garden in mind, besides cat nip and cat grass (what exactly is cat grass, is it normal grass they call cat grass so they can sell it at a higher price or is it a different type all together! ?) Are there any other cat friendly plants i can plant? I read basil, parsley and...

@betsyg once again, thank you for your advice!! (As you can tell my cat and the things I would do for her is never out of my mind! :) ) i was actually thinking of something like this http://m.ebay.com.au/itm/131263961419 ! Possible a bit smaller. Our garden is massive and fairly unused for the...

I was reading a few threads on here about owners thinking their cats could be depressed for a number of different reasons.. one sort of caught my eye about a cat being depressed about not being allowed outside. Now this got me thinking, my recently adopted cat (just over a month ago ) used to be...

@betsygee so funny that you just mentioned that! Tonight she has decided to sleep in the living room. I am a bit sad but I'm glad she may come back to sleeping in our bed in time! She is a funny cat, when we are home alone she's generally close by but when my housemates come home at night I...

I should mention that she does this a lot between eating (we live in a share house so her food is in our room) she eats, jumps onto the bed, looks at me, and when I go to pat her, dodges it and walks away.. this happens every time she eats at night if we are in bed

Every night, my boyfriend and I generally watch tv in bed. My cat when we first got her used to sleep next to me but now she will jump on the bed walk directly over to me and look at me. She looks like she wants pats but when I do she just walks away and sits on the end of the bed. Over and over...

@Mani just thought I'd update that my little Kittems has started to play ( a bit! ) she is a lot more comfortable in her new surroundings and is used to her new routine! With lots of love and affection given to her she seems to have come out of her shell! She loves the old mouse on string game...

Hi guys I'm glad I found this thread. This post is exactly describing my recently adopted cat. 6 year old. She is just really aloof compared to how she was when she first came. I feel really sad and hope you are right and she does still love me. Is it normal for her to stop rubbing her head on...

I am fairly sure she is sleeping, as I often check on her, she has many hidey holes we put around the house and she is always in a slumber when we go to check! Her previous owner also mentioned that she was quite a lazy cat :) @zoneout
