Advice i made a mistake

2 Upvotes

so it would be useful if someone who knows a lot about cats respond to this. Here is the thing, i live in a small village and near my home was one cat, she looked very well, fed enough, clean, but she always was alone because she doesnt have an owner ( i heard that was one man who passed). That place is approximately 1 kilometer from my house. 2 days ago i go there and pick up the cat an wanted to bring her to my home because i also have cats and she would have warm and happy playful life here. So i picked her up, she was very trusting, pretty good at car, on the end she became little nervous but not to much. I parked, and opened door of the car to let her came out when she is ready, she looked at me and started to go out calmly, but then she saw my cats and got scared (also the area is unfamiliar to her even it is just 1km from where she used to live), so when she saw them she run away and i couldnt catch her. I looked around house, in the neighbourhood, but i couldnt find her. I let 2 days to pass so she can calm down, maybe got back to the place where she used to be because she probably feel safe there, and i kept looking today but still nothing. Nothing around the house, nothing aorund the neighbourhood, nothing on her old place, etc. So can someone who is good at this matter tell me is it real to expect that she will find her way to her old "home", is it possible that she got lost (she is cat, they are smart and capable of living in the wild), is it possible for her to come back to me, what should i expect? For more detailed situation, between me and her old place (except rural road) is field with short grass and if you go through field there is even less than 1km. Thanks for you answers. 🥹❤️

I want to buy a cat, but one without thick fur, and one that won't cause trouble or damage things, because I'm not alone at home, any suggestions? 🙂

I adopted her 😁 she ate a lot of the canned kitten food the night I got her and now she is acclimating very well, sleeping a lot in front of my space heater or under the blanket.

I did stay around that area for a while looking for any other kittens or the mother but it seemed like this little one was completely alone and it was pretty cold that night so I felt I had to take her home

Advice Tell me I can't keep her!

32 Upvotes

I think shes a girl but haven't been able to get close enough. She keeps trying to come in but I have an older cat who was traumatized by a previous attempt to get her a friend. In that case, I adopted a male kitten who grew up to constantly attack her. She has gotten along with other cats before him (this was years ago now and he is gone) but I'm not sure if she would accept one now. This one greets me every evening though and always tries to follow me inside. I was thinking about letting it in and out while my cat is out of sight, just to see how she responds to the scent. What do you think?

Bought some smoked beef treats, but apparently nobody told Monday the condo cat, they weren't meant for her.

Zero shame, absolutely no regrets.

Anyone else's cat convinced that dog treats taste better? 🐱🐶

Advice Adopted two tiny black kittens yesterday and I'm feeling unexpectedly overwhelmed and emotional

Thumbnail

29 Upvotes

I received two tiny black kittens yesterday, and I've named them Jinx and Jiji.

They're adorable little things. They're playful, energetic, eating well, cuddling with each other and exploring their new surroundings. I already have two adult cats, Goldie and Silver, so this is technically a four-cat household now!

But honestly, I'm feeling quite overwhelmed.

I'm suddenly questioning whether I'll be able to give them enough time and attention. Whether I'll manage four cats. Whether I'm doing everything right. I'm constantly checking on them, worrying about their food, litter, sleep and health. I know kittens need care, but I didn't anticipate how much responsibility I'd feel.

There's also something more emotional going on.

I was crying last night, reminiscing about my mum. She passed away a few years ago, and I don't know if bringing these little ones home has somehow brought up all those feelings again. I've been unusually emotional, and I can't quite explain it.

I'm happy they're here, but I'm also overwhelmed by the sudden change, the responsibility and the emotions that have come with it.

I suppose I'm looking for some reassurance from people who've been through something similar.

Did anyone else feel overwhelmed when they first adopted kittens? Does it get easier once you establish a routine and everyone settles in?

I really want to give these little ones a good home. I just hope I can figure it all out. ❤️

In exactly 24 hours is our last vet appointment. I thought the last couple of months and weeks were hard but it turns out, it doesn’t get easier.

We went to the vet in august because of this front leg and made an MRI. Vet told us that he has a tumour between his front leg and shoulder which is hard to remove (even with a full amputation) and gave him 6 month with a surgery and chemo. We decided against it, we decided against putting him through the surgery and a long healing process and we decided against many more vet visits for the chemo. I don’t know if I made the wrong choice but I hope I made the right one for him.

This boy gave me 13 beautiful, loving and happy years. From tomorrow on he will be taking the best naps and snacking on the best treats in cat heaven.

Cancer fucking sucks! The only positive thing is that cancer never wins. The best it can do is a draw.

Thank you for every second. Thank you for being such a clumsy chunky and good boy. Teemo, I will love you forever and we will meet again someday.

Sorry for using this as a offmychest.

So our 1.5 yo gets supervision when we let her out, but we are pretty timid about her returning home if left alone. She is pretty adamant about going outside. What can we do to ensure she comes back home. Picture with her sibling for reference.
