Cosmetic tail surgery isn’t right for everyone, but Max is very happy with his new look.

Gilrs have started going out with full daylight access to the catflap. All was going brilliantly until the reappearance of Fluffkins (twice the size of one of ours). He chased one in yesterday and then the other (the nutter) went out to confront him and then get chased in.

So I am WFH tomorrow armed with buckets of water. BRING IT FLUFFKINS!

Was very pleased when I got out the car this evening to see a cat run across the drive. Was absolutely delighted when said cat approached for rubs and scratches and started purring.

Cat then started rubbing against the corner of the house and on the front step and was still sat on the doorstep about 10 minutes later. Think I’ve made a new friend.

I have decided it is called Tabbytha and here is a very poor photo:

Is this the right place for cat assistance?

I have two cats, one is a dream, the other is cool as, but a bit of dick on one thing.

All was fine, then we got two rugs. The bad cat started crapping on the rug. Was well annoying. We tried all sorts, and I even took her to the vet who stopped me mid-explanation to tell me (in a brilliant Irish accent) that “the cat doesn’t like da rug, get rid of it”.

Now the rug was new, so just chucking it away is really annoying, and the floor needs it. If we remove it, she goes back to using the tray. We cover it at night with a tarp (which is mental) and that works, but isn’t exactly the solution. Always poop, never piss.

Oh, and when we are there - bloody loves the rug, rolling on her back, and sleeping on it and stuff.

One of you clever sods will know what to do.

Thanks

i think that once they crap somewhere once, they start thinking it’s the toilet as no matter how well you clean it, they can still smell it. i don’t have a good solution for you that doesn’t involve removing the rug i’m afraid, but if you find one, let me know!

[froglet]

they look like they’ve just had an argument and are sulking at each other

[whiterussian]

That’s literally just her deeply concentrated purry cuddle face. What a weirdo

[ynot]

Sooty is being very inquisitive tonight.

[xcheopis]

Trying to familiarize myself with all the fluffy darlings!

[dingaling]

Me too, although I feel the need to prepare them that some of these lovely kits are sadly no longer with us (including mine )

It’s so nice knowing my Daisy has brought someone new a little joy though

[ynot]

For me it was quite nice getting alerts to old photos of Gizmo. He really was a daft, lovable moggy.

There is a cat thread on somethingawful that is nine years old, more than six thousand pages long, and has nearly 700k posts. For “reasons”, I wound up some 50,000 posts behind. It took me weeks to catch up, which is when I learned that some of my favourite cats had died. Ask me about crying in the break room over a cat I’d never met.

I’m very sorry about your sweetie. It’s the worst part of having a pet.

[xcheopis]

Yes!
My Tanuki. He is 15.5 and has health issues. Last cat standing of three and just the best little guy.

[Aggpass]

There’s a spray thing that supposedly puts them off. We used it and it coincided with the cat stopping pissing on the spare bed, though that was also when she was new to the house and adjusting to living here so could be that too. But worth a go. Will try to find the name of it

[xcheopis]

I’m sorry if I’ve upset anyone over old posts. Your sweeties are so cute! Tell me to stop if it’s bothering you.

[xcheopis]

[dingaling]

Oh not at all! Like @ynot says, it’s been so lovely to rediscover old photos It was more that I was worried about you being sad further down the line. The SA thread sounds amazing and I’d totally be crying, too. I cried over Boo the dog dying a few weeks ago, heh.

And Tanuki is a stunner!
