I actually cat-sat last night, he looks huge now as I hadn't seen him in 2 week and the cats at my friend's place are really small in comparison. Didn't get any pics though.
Oh crap I didn't see that
Sorry bud, no harm meant.
No worries dude
Everyone I know who has had cats and let them outdoors has lost one or more to traffic. Cars & trains mostly.
Let's face it, most of us don't live on a remote island where it's 100% safe to let their cats outside.
Is it better to let a cat outside and have it die prematurely, or let it live a safe, pampered life inside? With a lot of attention and love why shouldn't an indoor cat be happy?
Or you could buy a kitty leash and take her for walkies
Something I'd probably do if I had a cat as I have absolutely no concern for my self-image My family did say they'd disown me, however...
It is people forcing them to stay inside under the guise that some random offender might abuse/torture their poor feline that I disagree with... a few rare reports of this type of thing get media attention and suddenly everyone is terrified the same thing will happen to them. THAT is my point in alternate words... Human fear-based restriction of an animal that may well want to go outside given half a chance, but no... fear-based over-protective nanny culture wins again
It's recommended some breeds are kept indoors though, Ragdolls for example because of their behaviour.
Mine won't ever be let out by themselves, they get some time in the back garden but other than that they will always be house cats.
Thanks for the kind words about losing my old cat Meiko, but I now have his little sister which the breeder extremely kindly gave us for free.
We named her Skyla, she's a Tortie point Siamese, just over 5 months old.
That's a good outcome given the circumstances mate. Nice one. I found out recently that Siamese cats faces go darker depending on the heat of the country they grow up in....cool
He's so awesome, first day with us yesterday, girlfriend let him sleep on the bed though so I've had hardly any sleep, she's had even less as he kept kneading her in the face all night
Back from honeymoon and got work this week....feeling s88t about it...until I saw these pics and they put a huge smile on my face. Love it when a kitten gets a good home
Ball of tin foil rolled up to about a 2 cm diameter ball. Pretty much cat proof and cheap as chips too
Well everyone say hello to Keith the kitten, hes somewhere between 3-5 weeks old, orphan little boy - we first spotted him wondering around in the garden of a boarded up house, went to investigate, found a shed with possibly 2-3 dead kittens, hard to tell as they were ripped to shreds
This is him today, full of energy apart from when he sleeps, ill get better pics at some point - the cat litter he does use, but likes failing asleep right after doing his buisness when we feed him lol
He is joining our ever growing collection, hes the 4th addition, 1 6 year old female Coco, 1 3 year old male Smudge, and a half blue persian female also 3 year old called Misty.
You legend for saving that cat. Take a bow squire.

Here's my old pal Pubcat, also known as PC or Pubbers.
He's getting on a bit now, but thankfully he's not incontinent...

Meh, cat been missing for around 5 weeks He hass previously disappeared before (12 days, came back as if nothing happened) and would quite frequently not be around for a few days but never this long. He disappeared around the time 2 male cats were hanging around. Hoping its because of that and has found somewhere else to go.

I take it he's chipped and you've phoned round all the places you should?

Yeh. The other thing was I was looking after kittens in my house, they were all rehomed just after he disappeared but he didn't like them (hissed at them when I opened the door). Just hoping that he is living somewhere else (I've always thought he had a 2nd home, because he was never around every day).

I wish that too knip unfortunetly the tech to do that isn't cheap enough I don't think. Plus what do you do about battery life? You have to find a power source that will last the life time of a cat, personally don't want to put a nuclear power plant in my cats rofl.
