Cat Chat Feline Forum

Thank you both! we currently have a dressing gown lying on the stairs, he didn't scratch last night so hopefully we can kerb the habit just by preventing him from accessing the carpet.. although it does look like were slobs with clothes strewn across the stairs :lol: , at the weekend ill give the fo...

Hi all, some of you may have read on the bereavement page I lost one of my young cats nearly a month a go to a car accident. Since then, his brother George has begun ripping up the carpet on our stairs. It is mostly in the middle of the night or when we are out at work. He was very close with his br...

It will get better I promise. It’s really hard, really really hard. Nothing can prepare you for what you went through and there are many people on here who know exactly how you feel. I’m so sorry you lost your baby but you gave everything she could have dreamed of and more. Cats have a big impact on...

Thanks ladies, I have bought a feliway diffuser to hopefully help reassure him. He is certainly missing his bro, they were inseparable and were certainly play mates. Hurtling round the house/garden! The problem with the stairs is that it’s in the middle of the night so we give our best ‘GEORGE NO’ a...

Hey Lilith we find it easy, with personality and small differences in body shape and size :D , to others they have no idea! Although as you can imagine, the night Greg was hit we didn't know who it was until we had rounded the other three up in the house. we grieved all of them before we realised it...

Hahaha of course, how else would I get a perfect picture of them

Thank you again ladies, it’s so nice to talk to people who understand, I’m always a bit apprehensive when telling non cat lovers how I feel but this forum is so welcoming and understanding. So I can’t thank you enough. You have definitely helped the initial healing process. I finally worked out how ...

Still trying to work out how to re size my photos, i will try and do it at the weekend. I took a lovely one the other day. I had been longing for it to rain all week, to wash away the blood where Greg got hit. On wednesday, a week after he passed it did just that. A rainbow formed and went down in t...

Thank you fjm you have hit he nail on the head. I feel like not only am I grieving the loss of a very much pet/member of the family way to young but the whole circumstance around this loss was incredibly traumatic. Your right, talking about it does help and since writing on here I feel a whole load ...

Thank you Bobbys Girls and Ruth. Your messages mean so much to me. I can't help but kick myself for not teaching them to be more wary of the Road, Greg had no fear, he'd try and take on passing dogs, he chased my neighbours hose if she was watering the garden, he use to catch pigeons, take on the bi...

Hello all, I’m not really sure where to start. I’m completely lost and I remembered catchat has helped me before. On Wednesday evening I lost my little shadow, partner in crime, cuddle buddy and baby of the house Greg. He was hit by a car right outside my house. I can’t stop playing the events over ...

Thank you!

I also forgot to add, if your still looking for your cat, don't give up hope, keep searching and I hope they too come home

Tonight we found him, he had been in a nearby neighbours garage. Our neighbour had contacted us last week having received the flyer to say that there was something going on in her garage but she couldn't find the culprit. We even went in there last week and couldn't find anything. She then rang toni...

Hi all I am so desperate for my boy to come home, he went missing overnight on Tuesday 16th Feb. Its nearly been a week since we last saw him, this last week has been torture and I think he might be shut in some where I have been out almost everyday calling him, flyered every house in the area I liv...

hi all,

only just got a chance to catch up on the responses - so fresh soil is a cats toilet dream, netting, raised planters, pigeons, slugs, seedlings and wash harvested veg in case there is cat piddle or any nastys.. Got it!

Thanks everyone

wow thanks Lilith, very informative! ah yes fresh soil, I must keep an eye on it. When I was out in the garden earlier this year preparing it by turning soil over to get the beds ready for the growing season, Edgar (my boys are called Edgar and Clarence), came up, looked at me and then had a wee rig...

Hi all, been a while since I have posted on here but the forum still proves useful as ever! :) So I am growing a number of veg this year, as I do every year but this year is the first summer I have got my kitties. The veg/fruit that I am growing is Garlic, Tomatoes and Strawberries. My question is; ...

haha yes he does have a partner in crime, that would be Edgar! if I could work out how to get the photo size down so I can upload pictures onto the forum I would upload a great one I took of them this morning sitting on a neighbours shed looking like they owned the place... Someone pointed out to me...

... That wasn't the end of it.

In total last night we had three sausage halves and this morning we had one more.

I am a little confused as to where he is getting them from as our bins were collected yesterday.

He is getting a right porky belly as well!

Clarence has just walked through the door with half a sausage!

I have never seen a cat Soo proud of his prize!

ahh so it seems its not so uncommon to have a serial bin thief!

Sausages off a Neighbours BBQ and Roast chicken straight from the kitchen table?! wow, Brave Cats!

So I guess I will have to just let him get on with it then, he is so proud of himself when he comes in licking his lips!

So our two kitties, Edgar and Clarence absolutely love the great outdoors, however.. Clarence has taken to coming home with naughty food he has stolen! It first happened a few weeks ago on our bin night in which he came home with a guey substance matted in his whiskers, i wiped it off and locked the...

Thank you all, we really appreciate all the love and wishes towards Meows (yes thats her nickname )

She came home from the vets today, very tiny and constantly hungry, she is on some antibiotics but also on a speedy road to recovery.

Thank you Fran_ki

we're just so pleased that she is alive.

She is having an over night stay to up her fluids and blood tests to check her kidney functions.

hopefully she'll be back home with my sister tomorrow for lots of cuddles and pampering.

poor little kitty has been found, she was stuck in a neighbours garage behind my sisters house and she had put a flyer through that neighbours door as well. She is currently being taken to the emergency Vets. Fingers crossed she is all well and healthy (as you can be after being out in the cold with...

I hadn't no, thank you. The page is really useful and I have forwarded it onto my sister.

Hi all, I am posting this on behalf of my sister, her cat is missing from Wickford since 16-01-15: She is a small tortoishell & white female cat with a Distinctive black mark under her nose (I can't work out how to make the photo file size smaller to upload it on here). She has been missing sinc...

Hi Kay, Thanks for your response, thats a good point, they are up to date with their wormer as i wormed them last week, however you have reminded me that I need to put a reminder in my calendar to make sure I keep their worming up to date from now on :D . How often would you say that I need to worm ...

Hi all, I know there are a couple of threads linked to Diarrhoea in cats and I have taken the advice from them on board however, I have two boys Edgar and Clarence who have become fully fledged Cat flap users for about two weeks. This morning I found some vomit on the carpet which i assumed to be Ed...

I do keep the litter tray clean, as I know if it was me I wouldn't want to use a dirty tray. I will definitely think about getting another one, i just need to find a suitable location. I do try to be as cautious as i can with them in the bedroom first thing in the morning if i haven't had a chance t...
