Good morning, Rigel! 


1.- How many cats do you have.

Currently, we are at six: The RugCats are BooBoo, Ms. Pepe, and Amber Louise. The Three Meowsketeers are Mollipop, Tabby, and Muffin.

2.- What brand of dry & wet food do you provide at your cats?

Dry: Purina Indoor Cat Chow and Hills TD cat food for snacking. 

Wet: Friskies Buffet cans. The six of them eat 28 cans of cat food a week, 4 cans per day.

On weekends when we're home during the day, they get breakfast, after-breakfast snack, before-lunch snack, lunch, after-lunch snack, before-dinner snack, dinner, after-dinner snack, and a bedtime snack. When we're at work during the week, they get breakfast, after-breakfast snack, dinner, after-dinner snack, and a bedtime snack. BooBoo, particularly, has a two-hour built-in alarm clock and when it's been exactly two hours since he's eaten anything, he usually finds me and lets me know. Loudly. His nickname is BooBoo of the Bottomless Tail and Paws because he's never full.
 

3.- Do you help at Feral Cats at least with water? 

We don't have much in the way of feral cats around here. Every once in a while we'll see a cat outside, but not often anymore. The last time we had fed outside cats, they became inside cats. Pregnant inside cats. 
 (And that's how we got BooBoo and Ms. Pepe; they were from Whisper's last litter. We brought the girl in the house, she was pregnant, had her kittens, and we hiked her little butt down to the vets for a spay. And when the five kittens turned six months old, we hiked their little butts down to the vet for spaying and/or neutering. Actually BooBoo was neutered at about two months because he wouldn't leave Ms. Pepe alone and we were not allowing a kitten to have kittens!)

4.- Are going at the Toilet WITHOUT surveillance from your cats? (be honest and answer)  

Oh heavens, yes! Rick gets so exasperated with them that he'll shut the door and not allow them in the bathroom. It doesn't bother me. I had to bathe both Mollipop and Tabby in the middle of the night one time when they were kittens because I no sooner stood up from the toilet that they went splash! in. So there I was, bathing a kitten in the bathroom sink in the middle of the night. Every morning when I go into the bathroom, I am joined by four cats: Amber Louise (who likes to stay just barely out of my reach....I can usually caress her tail, but that's it), Mollipop (who loves to scritch her chin on the bathroom sink faucet), Tabby (who likes to take a pee in the litter box at the same time), and Muffin (who usually jumps into my lap). It's an experience!

Good evening.

I have 20 cats.

The Mu, Susy Siren, Mia The Minx, Spike and Marley, Chicken, Carpet, Twinkle and Sadie, The Little Boy, Button Moon, William and Heidi, Albert and Sophie, Hiro and Jiro. Lizzie, Henry and Freya. (That's just the ones that live mainly indoors, I haven't even mentioned the feral cats yet.)

They get whatever is on offer at the local supermarket or whatever comes with a bulk buy discount if I buy online. This week it's Silver Spoon dry food with dry sardines and KuroKan Chicken and Turkey or Tuna and Bonito wet food.

Yes, I put out fresh water several times a day and a big bowl of food every evening. (My neighbour provides breakfast,)

Sometimes I can sneak into the toilet and shut the door without them, but there are usually 3 or 4 sad little faces waiting for me when I come out.

1. Two - Mo and Kismet.

2. Chicken Soup for the Cat Lover's Soul and Go! Free + Fit for dry in a little rolling Kong before the humans go to bed; Friskies and Wellness for wet meals

3. No, I've actually been on the lookout for colonies in my area but I haven't found any, nor any rescues that are operating here.

4. Sometimes if Kismet sees me going into the bathroom, even just to wash my hands, she follows me and lies down on the bath mat to be pet (it's her second safe room), but usually I get the alone time. :p

1. Sparkle, Lily, and Tophel (3)

2. Orijen or Acana for dry; Weruva and Performatrin (mostly) for wet

3. no, it only attracts raccoons and I don't want to bring them to the house since we have a part-feral who goes in and out

4. they all fling the door open when I'm in there, and if I close the door all the way they start tearing up the carpet on the other side...

Where my cats are
1. 2- Mooch and Noodles

2. Authority dry; they refuse wet

3. I used to put water out for the cat who spent a lot of time in our backyard.  He belonged to the people across the street; retired farmers.  I do believe something happened to him because he stopped coming after about a year of regular visits and we haven't seen him since.


4. If my cats aren't with my my kids are. Nuff said.

1. - How many cats do you have: Morgana and Camelot

2. - What brand of dry & wet food do you provide at your cats?: Performatrin Ultra for dry. Wet cat food tends to vary!

3.- Do you help at Feral Cats at least with water?: Definitely! Though so far it has been awhile since. But on the lookout, since I've seen some in other locations after the warming of spring.
 

4.- Are going at the Toilet WITHOUT surveillance from your cats?:  They always want to follow 
 Morgana even goes further - Based on the Morgana-Law, she HAS to come with me when I take a shower. She will usually perch on the shelf in front of me as I wash or along the tub near the faucet.

1. I have two. Foley and Maia. Foley is an orange tabby with orange stripes and Maia is brownish and white. They're both 2 yrs old.

2. I feed them with cat chow healthy weight and Fancy Feast. They're favorite is the cheddar delights one. And they eat a can a day each.

3. We have no Gerald around here.

4. We often walk in on each other. They are strong enough to open the door wide open if its not closed all the way through and always want to be there when im there. When I walk on them is so funny that I feel the need of apologize and always do but they look so upset for me walk I on them on their special time.

1.  I have 3 cats:  Gadget, Mason, and Julie.

2.  I feed them homemade raw, and hope to be expanding their menu soon!

3.  My neighbor feeds the strays.  Water source is not a problem here.  What I'd really like to do is find a way to get some of these cats neutered/spayed.

4.  Since Mason can open the door to the guest bathroom, if I really want privacy I have to go the master bathroom.  They aren't allowed in my bedroom.  They take things like my makeup brushes and put them in the litter box.

LOL, I just imagine in their heads, they just go "this is junk... and this is junk... oh, and this is definitely poop too".

I had a latch put on the pantry door the other day, and my friend saw me put the drill bits in the microwave while he was put the latch on for me.  He looked at me all crazy so I said, "Mason will take off with them."  I went to close his tool box and found Mason's back half sticking out of it.

1.- How many cats do you have...
( please say their names here..)

I have two cats:  Swanie, a male tuxedo and Cynthia (Cindy), a petite calico

2.- What brand of dry & wet food do you provide at your cats?

Dry food they get Royal Canin Gastrointestinal HE

Wet food, sadly Cindy will no longer eat, but Swanie is getting Fancy Feast Classics and Soulistic. 

Cindy, who we are tube feeding, is getting Recovery through the tube.  She does eat the dry, though

3.- Do you help at Feral Cats at least with water?


There are no feral around here at the moment, but when there was one, I gave him food and water. And tried to get him to come to me, but he never would.  I miss seeing his sweet little face on my front porch.

4.- Are going at the Toilet WITHOUT surveillance from your cats? (be honest and answer)

Ha Ha  Ha.  Swanie precedes me into the bathroom every morning.  He is always watching me and the minute I start to stir around in the morning, there he goes.

1.- How many cats do you have...

Just one. Sir Oliver Underfoot, Esquire. We call him Oliver.  


2.- What brand of dry & wet food do you provide at your cats?

He's fed a home-ground supplemented raw chicken diet. 


3.- Do you help at Feral Cats at least with water? 

We don't have feral cats in my neighborhood. There are probably some up the road around the farms, but none here at the mill.  


4.- Are going at the Toilet WITHOUT surveillance from your cats? (be honest and answer)

Usually yes. He used to follow me everywhere I went. Now he's comfortable enough to stay where he is while I move about the loft. Privacy!
