Our cat was named āMagicā when we got her. Sheās a black cat, but even so. Magic the cat???
Her face! Sheās like an owl!
She was definitely on some kind of primal forest alert in the deep snow, very wide eyed & ears pricked
My dad wanted to call one of our dogs Magic but my mum flat out refused. Then again he touted Bilbo for me and heās a massive bellend.
Reminds me a bit of my mumās cat (who hates snow, rain, any inconvenience, and is basically Mariah Carey in cat form)
Wow, those stripes. Is he/she some sort of tabby/siamese mix or is it just the lighting?
Yes sheās a siamese mix- her brother came out completely siamese looking, and she came out like this, and the other two in the litter were black.
Also she was plain white when she was a kitten and the stripes came in later.
This was her brother (who died)
Definite air of āI do not approve of this snow businessā
I was with the Pet Emporium which were good for older cats. I was paying about Ā£20 a month and Princessā final vet bill was Ā£1500. They paid about Ā£1100 of it.
I didnāt claim much for Sooty as he had no warning signs like Gizmo and there was nothing they could do without him suffering. It cost Ā£288 for the emergency out of hours care and to put him to sleep. I think I claimed when he got an abscess once but nothing significant.
Gizmo on the other hand had his intensive care treatment, drugs for a year, and and a few lung scans. Think we claimed around Ā£7k.
Had anyone successfully stopped their cat from scratching the sofa? Mine hurts my back so much ans really want to get a new one but not if heās just going to tear it up.
Does Fig have a scratching post?
No and worse than the sofa is the carpets (and they have plenty of scratch post options which they will also scratchā¦ The fucking pricks!).
Stopped ours scratching the side of the bed but only by covering it in sticky plastic āanti-scratchingā sheets and getting an extra scratching pole for the bedroom. She continues to wreck all the carpets though.
He does. He tends to scratch the sofa when he doesnāt get what he wants, if i make him wait for dinner he head straight to the sofa, staring right at me as he pulls himself along it. Think thatās what he likes about it, being able to lie on his back whilst he scratches
Naughty boy! I had issues with Katie scratching things at first, and I eventually found her post wasnāt big enough for her to properly stretch whilst she was scratching. A taller post solved the problem, and she only occasionally claws the carpet now
Mine idly acts like heās going to dig up a houseplant, or casually pings one of the stones against the edge of the pot to make an annoying noise. 100% because he knows heās not allowed. He doesnāt touch them when Iām out.
A whole year without my tiny bean! Still miss her so much and she would have loved us being here during lockdown.
Iād love to get another old indoor cat but it seems quite hard to get info from a shelter. Wish most places listed cats online as I donāt want to waste their time calling up
