Let's See Your Cats!!!

Ollie needs a knife

 

A day in the sun.

 

Thank you , he will be missed

He was only 7 yrs old , Maine Coons have a heart defect called hypertrophic cardiomyopathy – thickening of the muscle walls of the heart – and, in time, this condition leads to heart failure and/or other complications such as blood clots

Thanks, he will be missed

He definitely was

 

Rascal new immediately yesterday that something was wrong with him and she was trying to comfort him . Rascal also hasn't left my side since last night and even slept on my pillow next to me

 

animals feel the same pain. Be there for Rascal, she knew you needed her last night.

 

Damn

 

condolences to Rascal. they have to (must have) their own cat communication.

 

Rascal is getting lot's of love and attention and she's purring loudly

 

my poor cat; after her 2 week horror vacation in the neighborhood was taken to the vet.

she got prodded, probed and injected with update vaccines and a long lasting antibiotic because she had evidence of several cat fights.

knocked her on her ass.

 

Damn Chuck I'm sorry. We lost Sterling in a similar way a little over a year ago.

 

Junior, in full camoflauge as I like to call it (when he rolls in the dirt), was helping me under the hood the other day while I installed new fog lights.

I was washing the truck the next day and he decided to walk around on it right after I had gotten done sudsing it up. He definitely lives that "idgaf" life. Love him to bits.

 

This is what caused Gizmo's passing and is very common in large breed cat's

When our cat Mo died last year it was really rough on our other cat Mai Thai as they were best buds and grew up together before my wife and I met. Mai Thai would go around the house looking and meowing in all of Mo's usual spots for days after we had to put Mo down, it was heart breaking.

There's a weird tiny hole under our kitchen cabinet that Mo once figured out how to hide in (no idea how), and even to this day Mai Thai will walk up to it and peek in it like he's checking to see if Mo's there.

 

Interrupted the SSSP (Standard Smokey Sleeping Position) when I got home.



Didn't even twitch a whisker when I came in, but heard the camera.

 

A couple of surly bastids I tell you...........hahahahahahahaha

 

One of mine

 

omg the teefies

 

curious if thats why my vet makes a point to tell us at visits their heartbeats sound great and a strong heart. After losing our first kitten to FIP i couldnt even imagine something else like this.

 

My Vet is the same way , always informing me of their heart rate
