    Pets that have odour and smell?

    I can't say that I have never had a pet that smells bad by nature but we did have a pet hamster once who was getting old and not looking after herself as well as she should have been she did start smelling and we did what we could to help her stay clean until she passed.

    Is your cat a bird catcher?

    That is awesome that you have a camera that can record what they are doing when you are not around :) I never thought to do that when Smokey was with us but I feel it would have been interesting to see what she did when she was the only one in the house.

    My cat fighting his own tail 😂

    It is always awesome to see cats doing this :) it's like they get in a playful mood and their tail catches their eye and they attack it and chase it! I remember my late cat, Smokey who is no longer with us, she used to do this and there was one occasion when she bit her tail and yelped. I felt...

    What weed/grass is this?

    At first glance, I wanted to say it's a dock leaf but after further checking on Google, it seems that it is not a dock leaf. I would take it to your vet to take a look though!

    How often do you brush your cat's teeth?

    I will be honest and say that I have never brushed any of my cat's teeth in the past. The vet reassured me and also my mum who has pet cats that they tend to clean their teeth using their food or treats which has something in it to help with keeping the teeth clean and dental hygiene. We were...

    How often does your kitty go to the litter box?

    I don't have kittens at the moment but I remember when our late cat, Smokey was a kitten, she would use the litter box quite frequently and it was a lot of work to help her until she got the hang of doing it herself.

    Would you keep a tarantula?

    Anyone that knows me knows that I have a huge fear of spiders and that tarantulas are a no-go at all for me. I would never have one in my house and would hate to be in the same house as one even if they were in a tank. I have in the past been in a pet shop where they had a tarantula and the...

    Cats that search bins

    Not all cats tend to search bins outside but some will. I always remember my auntie having a cat, I believe she still has him and he used to search bins and come back with items from a full meal. I can't say it's a bad thing that cats go into bins and search for food in the bins and it does...

    How do you protect your cat's food from flies?

    When it comes to the warmer months and you have your windows and doors open, there is always a guarantee that you will end up with flies in your house. If you have a cat, it is likely you will have their food sat in a place you keep it where they know where it is. As everyone knows, flies love...

    Is your cat a hunter?

    We have a cat that lives a few doors down from where I live and he is a great cat but he is also a pretty big hunter. We always tend to see him sitting in the long grass sitting and waiting for ages until he sees something like a mouse and then he attacks. There have been a few times when he...

    Have you ever made your own cat toy?

    If you are someone who tends to buy your cat's toys from the store, you will notice that they can be quite pricey and can also be another thing, much like beds that they may not use too often. You may also notice that your cat will play with something that you may not have had to pay for as...

    Have you ever made your own cat bed?

    Whenever I have had a cat, I have always bought them a bed that they can use and sleep in, this can sometimes be costly though and if the cat does not end up sleeping in the bed or even using it at all, it can seem like a waste of money. Have you ever made your own cat bed? I would imagine it...

    Do you have a backpack for your cat?

    I don't tend to see this too often where I live but I do know that they are available for purchase to be used for your cats. Backpacks for your cat! These are backpacks with holes in them so the cat can breathe and space for them to move around as well so you can take them out with you. I...

    Has your cat ever been fascinated by the washing machine?

    Something I have seen online in videos is how some cats seem to be fascinated by the washing machine. Of all the cats we have owned ourselves, non of them that I have noticed seem to have had any interest in the washing machine when it was running at all. Have you ever had a cat that was...

    When is your cats birthday?

    Whenever we adopt a cat or even if it is a cat that we kept as another cat we had given birth to them, we will always be aware of when their birthday is. Smokey, we had her from being 7 weeks old and we knew her birthday due to my brother owning the cat who had the babies. She was born on 29th...

    Do you have pet insurance?

    Pet insurance is something that is good to have when it comes to a time when your cat may end up ill and vet bills will need to be covered. You can never plan when your cat may fall ill and need to be seen by a vet and because of that, it is always wise to have something such as pet insurance...

    Have you noticed a cat's fur colour change in the sun?

    I always remember a cat we had, he was a black cat or so we thought with some white on him. I always remember when he used to be outside in the sun, his fur would look more like a browny red colour over a black colour but out of the sun, it always looked black. Have you ever noticed how your...

    Does your cat like showers?

    Water is something that we all know cats do not like much or at least that is what we thought. Of all the cats I have had, all of them always hated water and hated getting wet so showers were always out of the question for them unless I had a suit of armour. Some cats though, love showers which...

    Using a pipe cleaner as a toy for a cat?

    Something I have learned over the many years I have looked after cats is how you do not need to spend a lot of money on them for toys and such. Something such as a pipe cleaner which is safe for them can be used for them to play with and you can even make your own toys with pipe cleaners for...

    Do you always rehome rescue cats?

    Something I always try to do when I get another cat is I always attempt to rehome them. So many cats end up being left abandoned or taken out of a previous home due to abuse and all they want is a loving home. Knowing I am able to do that by rehoming a rescue cat makes me feel so much better...
