Mine is staring up at me while I write this with his “you give that phone more attention than me” look.
I’m soon to “abandon” him to go off to work.
So in his mind, I’m not spoiling him, I’m being utterly horrible |

"They can have some tuna! Or chicken- which they will probably leave half way through to go and stalk the local hedgehog!"
Tell them good luck with the hedgehog |

My daughter came him last night, it was all very sad. She’s already been out to wish Merlin a good morning and I’ve promised that we can choose a plant and an ornament if she likes (please don’t let her choose anything hideous )
Still very much adjusting to my cat free home, I’m convinced I keep seeing him out of the corner of my eye and then I remember
God help the next friendly cat we come across, we may just take up camp and stay and pet them all day! |

As you know Mistress, a beautiful cat has 'adopted' us. She is still housebound until Friday, when she has her stitches out. She is being thoroughly spoilt and loved everyday, as she's had such an awful time, bless her...she wakes me at 6 in the morning, for her breakfast and them comes to bed for cuddles |

Well one of my three furry fiends woke me two hours before I needed to be up and persisted to nudge, lick and knit me until it was time to get dressed... and I still fed her. So I reckon that is fair |

When you say 'knit' do you mean knead, I ask because we are new cat owners and my little cat likes to knead and nuzzle my arm...wondered why |

It’s also called ‘padding’ I believe it starts when whey are kittens and they do it on their mothers side when they are feeding possibly to help stimulate the flow of milk |

Thank you, I have read that. This cat turned up in our garden and had 3 kittens, whilst we were on holiday. She is only about a year old herself. We looked after them all in the garden, with the support of the CPL, for about 10 days, we used to see the kittens do this, although she wasn't feeding them anymore. We decided to keep her and the kittens have been rehomed |

Aah, thank you, she attached herself to us and let us look after her kittens with her, we couldn't resist her. She was spayed last week and has stitches out on Friday, so she can then go out. It appears she was dumped pregnant, in our village, no one came forward for her and she wasn't chipped, she chose our garden as we have lots of coverage for her to hide her kittens. |

"Mine woke me up at 4am shouting and running about, so for International Cat Day I will give her the gift of not putting her in the bin. "
My two did the same, along with scrabbling at my bedroom door to get in.
Seeing as every day is International Cat Day in our household, our most important members of the family will be spoiled rotten with snuggles and piggyback rides until I put them to bed. I actually have to sing them to sleep or they keep us up. |

Not just for international cat day, but I've also just got a 10 week old puppy who's VERY keen to play with him. The cat, not so keen."
Aah, I'm sure they will become good friends |

"My three furbabies are totally spoilt. Morning cuddles in bed still. They can have the cream off the top of the milk xx "
Please don't give your cats cow milk or cream - most adult cats are lactose intolerant and giving them dairy products can cause diarrhoea and extremely painful intestinal cramps, which in the worst case scenario can lead to the cat needing to be put down. There are plenty of "safe" treats available, as well as specific cat milk which is not dairy based.

A very off-key random song that I wail quite unmusically along the lines of ‘Sleeeeeepy-tiiiiime, tiiiiime for beeeeed....snuuuuugle dooooown and goooooo to sleeeeep...’ et cetera, et cetera. Utter nonsense finishing with a ‘niiiiight niiiiight...mummy loves you...niiight niiiight’...but they do come into the living room and curl up for sleepy night time snuggles before bed when I do it.
Super-weird fricking cats. (Super-weird fricking me, for that matter ) |

Oh we are! This is all new to us, she is a little nervous, but she still shows us lots of love, we were told that she had chosen us and our garden to have her kittens in, we adore her. Been doing a lot of googling so we know how to look after her and keep her happy and confident with us. |

We had to have an asbestos survey today, and they turned up with huge ladders, my poor little man got such a scare (he is a house cat) and ran into the next door property, as it was left open, took me over 15 minutes to find him (we live in a block of 6) and two of the properties are empty and the workers had left the front doors open.
It wasn't an enjoyable 15 minutes for any of us, but the look of relief on his little face when I found where he was hiding and came out to me straight away was a picture never mind the 'slow my beating heart' All nice and relaxed now |

It really was! I knew he wouldn't have gone all the way downstairs as he is a little scardy cat, but your mind isn't rational when in panic mode but the relief was unbelievable |

"We had to have an asbestos survey today, and they turned up with huge ladders, my poor little man got such a scare (he is a house cat) and ran into the next door property, as it was left open, took me over 15 minutes to find him (we live in a block of 6) and two of the properties are empty and the workers had left the front doors open.
It wasn't an enjoyable 15 minutes for any of us, but the look of relief on his little face when I found where he was hiding and came out to me straight away was a picture never mind the 'slow my beating heart' All nice and relaxed now
Gosh that was a scary time for you, so glad you were reunited
It really was! I knew he wouldn't have gone all the way downstairs as he is a little scardy cat, but your mind isn't rational when in panic mode but the relief was unbelievable
I am having moments like that with our new cat, we know she's in the house, but she gets in the most obscure places, she comes out covered in cobwebs!! "
Yes my little ragdoll, looked like a 'ragdoll' covered in cobwebs as well |

I love cats I miss having them.
Unfortunately I have a Lurcher who hates them and I have a hard enough time stopping him butchering the neighbours. I wish I had got him earlier so as to have intergrated him with cats shame. |

I rescued him so his unfortunate behaviour towards other animals had already been installed. He’s fine around dogs and people but anything else that moves he’s off like a rocket. |

Awww I didn't even know, but I bought them a treat anyway, a little mouse ya put dreamies in it n they have to boot it about so they fall out. Boo loved it but the dog (sshh don't tell him he's a cat!) he wasn't too impressed... Think he prefers being told to sit n shake hands for his treats |

Good for you, he deserves a good home, all animals do. My cat is adopted by us, after being dumped whilst pregnant, she is thoroughly spoilt here |
