cats + sun = happy

thats a lovely looking cat you have there, silky black!

Wonderful

So, yesterday, my smaller dog managed to get out the catflap - fuck knows how, I think he's a fluffy mini-Terminator T-1000 shapeshifter or something. We can't lock the catflap as the cat obviously needs it, and the dog is a major explorer, likely to then get out of the garden and go chasing cars or trains.

Is anyone aware of a two-way catflap i.e. where you need the magnet thingy on your collar to get out as well as to get back in?

I fitted my cat flap backward, in order to be able to control exit rather than ingress using the subcutaneous chips in each pet.

I think my Petmate microchip one works like that, as you can programme it to behave differently for different pets from memory.

THIS.

Wanda always comes up for a bedtime story with my daughter and I got bored waiting for her (daughter) to brush her (daughter's) teeth.

Got this new catflap - will keep dogs out of the garden and the cat likes it - she always had trouble with the old one.

Thanks, they're actually 2 sisters - the one in the sun is Hocus and the one curled in the bed is Pocus. Hocus is a little bit smaller and has a bigger left ear tuft, Pocus has a bigger right ear tuft but they are hard to tell apart from a distance.

So my cat is half Maine Coon, abandoned by an arsehole breeder after they discovered the litters non-purity, and taken away from his mother far too young so it didn't learn manners (i.e. not literally biting the hand that feeds) nor how to clean himself properly.

This usually mean regular matting issues, and in the lower thick fur layer so not helped brushing, which often leads to poopy issues.

Woke up this morning to find a brown smear across the bathroom floor, and was greeting upon returning home by a very stinky cat. Trying to clean his arse with damp kitchen towel wasnt fun, and mostly led to him running around the flat with stinky poopy wet dripping everywhere. So I had to try the shower. This was not fun at all.

He's currently shut in the bathroom sitting on a towel until he's dry, which of course he won't let me help him with. Oh and of course this towel is now a writeoff.
:(

I have a Coonie, and she's had the shits a few times, esp if we giver her tuna (which is why we don't any more). Had the same as you more than once, which means it's shower time. Luckily she's a full pedigree and was raised by her mum and is as gentle a soul as you could imagine, so she takes it relatively well.

It's worth it tho...

Yawning or screaming?

Looks like he's singing himself a "happy birthday" in a really deep voice.
