Re: 3 legged cat

We haven't had a reply from the OP Dr Tan (unless I've missed it). It often seems to happen - do you think people loose touch because they simply can't find us again, or because they don't like the replies?
I wonder what happened to his 3 legged kitty .....

Re: Reaching out to all toilet-trained cat owners: kitty won’t use toilet if it hasn't been flushed?

This had me in stitches, then I thought 'is this a leg pull?' Anyway I think its marvellous - can we have a tutorial on toilet training please?

Re: Decoding the cat

As an ignorant owner of come and go (outside) cats I've often wondered what they do with their indoor grass? I sometimes see mine eating grass outside and they invariably sick it back up again soon afterwards.

Re: Decoding the cat

Well, yes - to a much smaller degree. Her coat feels rough when she needs worming (OK I'm human, and I forget when she's due) but apart from excessive scratching, or limping I can't say she gives much away. She does make it obvious when she needs the door opening for her - but then (like most of her...

Well, the replies on here answer that question - get the vet to check his chip.

Re: Introducing our 3 year old deaf cat to a 9 month female kitty

I have two sisters who frequently play fight, sometimes with hissing and growling with claws out. I am never sure if its rough play or a real fight, but they usually break apart and sit staring at each other, lashing their tails in anger. As they are the same age and size I usually leave them alone,...

Re: 3 legged cat

You're doing right. My daughter had a 3 legged cat, she (the cat) got an infection in her hind leg which was killing her so she decided to have the vet remove it even though everyone thought she should put her down. The leg must have been hurting because she never looked back even though she was 10 ...

Re: Temporary Pregnancy Prevention?

Years and years ago I got my female 'the pill' which I put in her food (she had to eat separately for that meal, and even though she was a picky eater she took it without any bother. I don't know if they are still available but it may be worth a phone call. A 3 months wait is unacceptable - change y...

Re: New Here

Hello Amber, I'm new here too. I am slave to 2 cats, Gin and Tonic, two ferals who were dumped in our yard one Christmas about 8 years ago. Ginni is black and very friendly and cuddly whilst Tonni is wary and will not be touched although she will take treats from my fingers. They are indoor/outdoor ...
