As the title said. I adopted him the next day.

I have a lot of medical stuff to put up with and it causes extreme distress at times. The number of times I just wanted everything painful to be over is huge. Then I got him. He needs an excess of love and kindness, affection and care. I will put up with the struggles of life for him. I want to be there for him. He doesn’t have anyone else. He’s been my comfort in some very dark times.

This sweet kitten came to the vet the other day and I wanted it SOOO bad. You never see brown cats!

( his name is criminal) he's super intelligent

I have to pee, my leg is asleep, and my cat is sleeping so comfortably I don’t want to wake him. How should I proceed??

I’m a first time cat owner and have had Sir Gunther with me for just over a month now. He is fully indoors and is about six months old. From my understanding, reasons to neuter are: to avoid aggression and mating with other cats and spraying when they are stressed. If he is an indoor cat with quite a laid-back life (other than his endless requirement to play), how important is it for me to neuter him? ( prompted to post after seeing someone’s neutered cat mating with their hand ).

love seeing her every time i unlock my phone😅

This just happened a few nights ago. My 16 yo cat suddenly couldn't stand anymore. My sister said that right before that, he shook one of his legs weirdly and then he stopped moving. It was 1am so she scheduled a visit to the vet first thing in the morning, and he stayed there for 2 whole days. Before I went back to bed that night, we checked his body to see if he felt any discomfort to the touch, and he complained when I mishandled him a bit. My sister brought him to his litter box when he tried to get up and he pooped. I felt some relief that night seeing that he could move all his limbs, was responsive to us, and that he could control his pees and poos.

At the vet, his appetite was fine, he had an IV drip and he peed a lot, though he kept holding it in since he couldn't stand, and was treated with corticoids since they found his spine to have wear at his ligaments (sorry idk how to explain that), but it didn't work as they expected, and now they think it might be either neurological, or something related to his kidneys.

He spent Friday, Saturday, and was brought back home today (Sunday) at 3pm. My sisters will be paying for vet visits instead since he looked super stressed at the vet and was visible relaxed when either of us was there with him, he even moved to get belly rubs.

He's been back home for a little now but he's tried to move a lot and seems super frustrated, as he's let out these big, annoyed sighs here and there. He usually sleeps with his head rested on one of his paws, and he slept like that for a while even though it took him some effort to lift his head.

While hospitalised, he got x-ray and ultrasound done, and tomorrow a vet will come to take a sample of his pee.

It's been super frustrating because my sister had already got all these tests for him a month ago for something else and he was done with his treatment. The vet now said the corticoids were for the pain, but he was only treated with that on Saturday, and we were given nothing on the meantime because we should supposedly wait till after his pee is analysed.

I don't know what else could be done for now. My sisters are looking already somewhere else to have him admitted if it turns out too hard to take care of him at home, so I'd appreciate suggestions or maybe other possible "diagnosis" to look up and be prepared for.

She’s coming up on her 4 year adopt day! I took her from NY-CA. This is Pebbles, my love bug 😊

Adopted this guy about a week ago from a relative. Isn’t he absolutely precious?

Ever since I started playing this little game with him where I’ll faux ‘charge’ him, and he’ll run to the nearest “hide-out” and if I walk by, he’ll jump out and ‘tag’ me.

And now he’ll just do it on his own; I’ll be walking up the stairs and as soon as I get to the top, he’ll jump out from around the corner and genuinely jump-scare me and he always looks so content afterwards😆😆

Love this quirky little dude

My cat has this weird habit where he'll grab my hand and start "biting" it, but like... gently? He never breaks the skin or anything, just kinda gnaws on my hand like it's a chew toy.

The thing is, he starts super soft but then gradually bites harder and harder until it actually starts to hurt. But it's still this slow, deliberate thing...not aggressive at all, just... persistent?

Like dude, what are you trying to accomplish here? Are you tasting me? Testing my pain tolerance? 😂

Does anyone else's cat do this weird gentle-but-increasingly-painful hand biting thing? Is this normal cat behavior or is mine just a weirdo?

This cat is so bitchy, but she loves the shit out of me. If I move around when I'm asleep she'll jump up on the bed and wake me up to check on me and demand me to pet her. It's rare to see her in such a vulnerable position like this. Usually she perches up high ready to escape at any moment 😂

He is a very good boy but eats small pieces of plastic. We tried to make sure there are no plastic pieces in out house but if we see vomit, there is always a small of plastic mixed in there.
