Cat Chat Feline Forum

Hi Not been on this site for years. First contacted it 2015 as we took in an FIV cat, in our spare room firstly to try and find his owner. Long and short of it is someone recommended I contact a couple in Devon ( I think ) who rescued and looked after over 80 FIV+ cats over the years. They have more...

Melts my heart, everytime. Good old paddington.

Aw.... sounds like a happy kitty to me. You done good!

Poor things, both of you, you are right to be worried. I agree strong with previous post you need to call the vets. Please keep us posted. Gentle fusses to the wee soul x

Awww....so lovely you get updates he looks very content. Well done you!

This wee soul needs a vet!

Adorable! Just weigh her and ask the vet if weight is normal or take her to vets and nurse will weigh for you. Probably won't even charge fo that but then you will know for sure.

Happy ever after Angel

Gorgeous cats! It's so rewarding when they all get together for a snooze (and a photo opportunity ) my 3 not best mates but tolerate each other well, however I have caught all 3 f them on the same bed snoozing on occasion. It's so great to see. Love the photos.

Although I'm at home now most days I always worked full time when I got my cats. I got a male and female from the same litter so they would have company and they were the happiest cats. I worked shifts so sometimes days sometimes night and occasionally over night. Played with them the whole time I w...

Great news Helen. Hope paddington is continuing to do well also x

Great news Helen. Hope paddington is continuing to do well also x

Aw bless....looks like she needs to find someone with no other animals to love her. Fingers crossed someone takes her. You gave her lots of time to come round and if it's starting to make her stressed and unwell you have done the right thing vivian. Never easy. I'm in the same kind of situation but ...

Not all I have in life but sometimes the best parts of it. When your depression gets better you will see things differently I just think we are so fortunate to have these lovely creatures, especially when things get rough. Unconditional love, just there for us. Big hugs so sorry for your loss x

My wee fiv boy was a stray also. Loads of helpful info from Barbra and Bob, more than any vet gave us. So sorry your wee one is not doing so well but can I just say what an amazing job you have done allowing the wee soul to get to a great age despite being fiv pos... I also agree that at this stage ...

Keep the updates coming, his face never fails to put a massive smile on mine. And that's rare believe me! Big fusses to all your gang and the wee newbie, hope he finds a good home soon x

Lovely wee soul! Lucky to have landed on you Helen. Keep us posted.

So sorry or the shock and loss you are going through. There's not much I can say that the rest haven't said already. It takes time pet, it's different for everyone . It's almost a year since I had to pts my wee angel cher. We still cry sometimes. We laugh sometimes too because she was a wee characte...

The princes at paste is recommended and used by cats protection where I got my recent rescue cat from.

Get that paste on them and I think will be your best friend again. A tip for you, make the paste with tablet stick to a blanket or similar surface, that way when it's getting smelled and licked it doesn't get pushed around the floor and most likely will get scooped up on her tongue in one swoop. I w...

Hi I have had to pill my wee cat before she passed away for years with various methods and ftenfound her wee pills around the house! However I recently rescued a cat from cat protection who also needs pills every day. They informed me that they use the jars of princes salmon paste (very cheap) for t...

Aw what a beautiful photo

Yes! That's a heartwarming post Helen. I'm sure he is having the best retirement a cat could have, and rightly so. He is a real trooper. So happy for you all. Big fusses for Paddington x

Aw that's brilliant Helen. If he is happy and loved what more could he ask for at his stage of life. He looks so content in his photo. Good on you and great big fusses for him x

Hi Helen just wondering how the lovey paddington is doing. Is he continuing to improve. Big fusses from Scotland for him x

Fantastic. What a lovely pic, he really looks content. So happy for him.

Yay! That is so great, wee fighter. So lovely and amazing he trusts and depends on you both. Good on you for all you do for this wee gentleman. That put a big smile on my face today. Big fusses for him x

Oh my gosh Helen! Thank goodness he has you guys. He has been through so much and has really landed on his wee paws getting homed with you. He looks like a wee fighter, he has too much going for him now so he will try his hardest to get better. Chin up pet and keep us posted xxx

Hi viv. Couldn't you have her companion. I am going through same sort of thing we recently got a 10 year old and although she doesn't hide she hardly moves from her comfy places, hisses at my other 2 and growls so loudly if you pet her and she's not in the mood. She will sit for ages if you are brus...

Hey so happy to hear you have a new addition to the family. We have too but she is a bit of a strange girl, can't quite get used to her! Fingers crossed for both of us x
