Cat Chat Feline Forum

Oh Lyn.

I'm glad he's feeling better. Your post made me giggle. We so need to see pictures of him in his hoodie!! x

Hi.

I've only just caught this thread.

Hopefully Evie is home now. How does she seem? What did the vet say?

Hi there. Dora is an indoor girl and an only cat. There is just me & her at home. She is 6 years young and has been with me since she was 12 weeks old. Dora does exactly the same as Lottie! Admittedly not ALL the time but most of the time if I leave the room she follows me chattering away. If I ...

Hi. I always use Feliway in Dora's carrier before we go anywhere and have 3 or 4 plug in Feliway units located around the house, and a spare refill in her drawer. These are only turned on if I know there's going to be a stressful situation I.e if I have work being done in the house or friends visiti...

I think I must be incredibly blessed!! Clearly I am, as I am mummy to Dora!! Anyway, Dora being an indoor girl is extremely routine led we take about 10 biscuits up to bed with us, she eats those while I clean my teeth etc, then u get into bed, she jumps up, has her glucosamine for her arthritis, th...

I'm so terribly sorry. My thoughts are with you. RIP little girl x

Thank you everyone for your comments. They were all read out to Dora and she very much appreciated them. I think she had a very lovely day.

I've popped a few pictures onto the Dashings thread...

Fusses to your furbabes on this gorgeous sunny day x

They are lovely words Lyn. Thank you x

A tiny ball of fluff arrived one day In the metal machine from a long way away When we got home I opened the door It ventured out & guess what I saw Two ears appeared, a nose & eyes Four paws, and then, to my surprise The little ball of fluff & fur Said ''I've arrived to make you purr'' ...

Lyn your comments have made me think! Clearly I only have my one kitty furbabe but oh my goodness do I love her. I've never had cats before having been bought up with dogs in the family home. Dora was born on the 18th of February 2008 which is both a massively poignant & sad date for me. Obvious...

Hi everyone & thank you for you input. I have taken a wee sample from Dora before and like Fluffy she is a fussy girl..... Only the best litter will do apparently. Anyway, rather than use the litter I watched her like a hawk and at the precise moment she jumped in the tray for a wee I placed one...

Hi. As most of you know Dora's been on Metacam for a while now. She's 6 and has arthritis in her left back ankle. In the last 3 to 4 months I've really worked hard to manage her Metacam intake over a period of time & she's now on 6th of a dose (re body weight) one day, nothing the next, so effec...

Bless you & bless little Teddy.

I can't add anything that hasn't already been said but my thoughts are with you at this difficult time xx

Oh I wish I was closer as I would happily help you out.

I agree with Alice. Why not try your vets &/or local cat charities?

Best wishes.

Shelly

The day started at 4:50..... I woke and needed a wee (its my age). Anyway, at this point Dora's snoring away beside me. She's a funny girl because she's routine led & wakes normally about 20 minutes before me. I love my wet nose kisses and gentle face taps with her paw. There's nothing better in...

Actually Carol we've just finished a very exciting game of 'chase me on all fours around the chair so I can bunny hop & chirrup lots whilst laughing at you Mummy'....!!

Couldn't possibly think of a better way of spending my evening & I genuinely mean that!!

Hi all. I'm still getting to grips with the book to be honest. Each ailment is listed with a 'recipe' of ingredients and then the amount of the ingredients required is given in a different section of the book!! It's all a bit too much for me to cogitate over properly after a days work so rather than...

Julie - we all have things that happen in our lives that shape things going forward and fear of losing those we love most can be a fundamental part of who we are and the choices we make. I totally understand how what you are going through would undoubtably effect how you feel about Barney and the in...

I've arrived home from work today to find a book posted through my door. I have no idea where its come from however, whoever is responsible clearly knows me well! It's called Homoeopathic Remedies for Cats and its written by George Macleod. The back reads: George Macleod, a graduate of Glasgow Unive...

Hi Julie. Dora is an indoor only girl with a large secure outdoor area which houses my table & chairs, BBQ etc. I appreciate everyone has differing views on this however I live close to a busy road. Dora has always been indoor, as were her mum & dad who are owed by an ex work colleague of mi...

Yayyyy. That's super news.

Looking forward to your post later with a full update.

Fusses to your girl.

Oh Val. I do feel for you x It's so difficult isn't it. I am a mess every time I take Dora to the vets, even though I tell myself that if I managed the visit better she would pick up on my positive vibes rather than anxious ones! I definitely think you've done what's right for Tips. Having seen how ...

Good ol' Fluffy!!

I'm pleased she's still improving bless her.

Chin rubs & hugs being sent to you both from Dora & I xx

Hi. Dora hates mashed up tablets and always knows if I've put them in her food but I can always get away with hiding them in one of the stick treats you can buy. I literally push the pill into the broken off piece of treat and mould the treat around the pill so its nicely hidden and slightly warmed ...

That's super news. I'm really pleased.... And so is Dora because she was getting rather tetchy about poogate!!

Big fusses to Fluff & a ((hug)) to you. What a relief (literally)!

Pour a big glass of wine & put your feet up x

Oh bless you. I know that must be heartbreaking to watch. I do remember though that Dora took a few days to get back into her normal toileting routine so again the anaesthetic could be responsible. I understand that with her being prone to constipation that it would worry you. I've never (touch wood...

Hi Carol. Dora is exactly the same after an op; she gets ever so thirsty. After our last visit to the Animal Health Trust (anaesthetic given for scans) she got out of her carrier when we got home, walked to her water, had a sniff then started to paw at it in a really strange way. She looked at me as...
