I've taken time off work when I've had a new pet, I know that's not always possible though.Got my kitten at the end of December. She's 1 on 4th November.. really want a friend for her. But when I got her we was locked down so had all my time with her. How will it work if I get another and I'm at work? How do people get pets while at work . Any help would be helpfulthanks.
Oh they are weird typical tortitude..one minute loving,ne t biting you and having a go..I’ve had three.I adore them though.lyes, she is beautiful you cannot see in the photo but her little back legs are orange, but a "typical tortie" as the vet says, basically hates everyone except my dad as he feeds her
I got Strikeback, I used the bomb and then the spray over the next few days. you need to spray and then hoover and make sure you throw away the hoover bag outside immediately (I forgot this the first time i did it and had to basically start again) Apparently fleas have been a huge problem this year for lots of catsPlease don't EVER use ANY Bob Martin stuff. It's terrible. Their flea collars and treatment have caused severe illness and deaths in animals.
A couple of years ago I THOUGHT I saw one loan flea on my cat. The vet THOUGHT he saw something too. Neither of us were sure, but he said best to treat it anyway
I got a spray from the vet called 'RIP Flea' (yes, seriously!) that you use to treat the house. I won't lie. It's a pain to do, but fortunately I've only ever had to do it once. He treated the cat in the surgery on the day.
I couldn't understand how it happened as she's treated with a prevention treatment every three months, however I had been using Advocate and the vet said that a lot of cats seem to be getting immune to it. I use Bravecto now.
You can buy RIP Flea on Amazon and perhaps pet shops might have it, but ask the vet what's the best thing to treat the cat with.
I just played that and my sleeping kitten sat up and started looking around
basically the easiest way to distinguish cat people from non cat peopleI know exactly what you mean!
I'm squealing for you! What I found easiest was to get some wire fencing stuff from a hardware shop and block off a room with the kitten in it, but leave the door open. That way the cats can see and smell one another but there's no physical contact and sweetie Roisin can still have most of the house. I hope I'm explaining it correctly, I got the idea by googling the best way to introduce them and that's what worked for us.omg thank you so much!thankfully i think i could have a set up where they would each have their own room so that they have enough personal space. roisin is indeed female and she's very calm, i've only heard her hiss once in her life but i can imagine she'd get jealous because she's obsessed with me! so i was thinking in general we'll have to shower her with attention but feeding her first is a really good tip!
look at me not getting excited at all
Thanks so much. X
Ohh no Im sorry to hear! How did he go missing?My beautiful boy is missing. Can't believe this is happening to us againmy daughter will be devastated
, that’s what changed my mind about letting him out. But like you say he seems to want to. I also get a look of disgust from him when we let our dog in the garden and not him, he watches him outside until he comes back in 
.
). But wow ! The size some of them grow too I was shocked !! Are yours any where near as big as Google leads one to believe ? XIt’s fine they will be back as it is done to climb up it and break some decorations
Can confirm they are soft as anythingMaine Coons are massive but they're so gentle and sweet. The worst they'll do is crush your head sitting on it.
I've got a maine coon mix (with ragdoll) and he is so soft. But a typical cat who does not do anything that isn't his terms.
Aww, hello Rosie you little sweetheart! I can't have flowers in the house, they get eaten
I have three and they all really love belly rubs. It might be a Maine Coon thing as I've never come across cats who dig tummy pats so much!...she is gorgeous...surprised she let's you...if I attempt with mine I usually get a swift swipe ( claws in though)
So floofy
I actually find it better now that I have 2 as they can keep each other company when I am out (Albeit they mainly just sleep all day anyway) if you can't stay at home for a few days when you get the new cat I would keep them in separate rooms when you are out just in case, just for the first week or soGot my kitten at the end of December.

you could also put something citrus smelling around the window to deter them
Lol, that face! Classic.
What a handsome boy.
Oh my god, the bottom right is hilarious! He's just beautiful too. As for food I think the dry stuff is the one that puts weight on them so he's doing ok.
o wow
look at him he is beautiful!thank you for the advice! I’ll wait till he is a year and assess the situation thenTotally agree, I know quite a few people who never thought they were cat people until spending time around them! So cute the cat and dog get along, my cat used to get on well with my parents puppy when she was smaller but as I don’t live with them after a while of not seeing each other my cat now just finds the dog annoying, although the dog still wants to play. It is actually very funny as the dog doesn’t seem to understand that the cat wagging her tail doesn’t mean she is happy
It depends where you live, my cats go outside as it is quite a quiet area, I waited until she was about 8months old. My parents live on a busy road but have a big garden, my dad started to introduce them to the garden by taking them out on leads gradually. They have always been fine and never really venture past the neighbours garden (at most). It is nerve wracking when they don’t come back for a day or so though, if you are nervous I would just suggest waiting until the cat is older, maybe a year or so, as they actually become quite lazy and just stay very close to home
Agree about getting a dog first, cats are very territorial and any new animal will make them angry, especially a dog. My parents got their cats first then a dog a year or so later, the dog tries to play with them ( still) but they just hiss or run away. Sometimes they will sleep on opposite nds of the same sofa but that’s about it
