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...- Shortie

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...- Shortie

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...- Shortie

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...- Shortie

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...- Shortie

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... -
Do you have a cat run?
Something I have never had for any of my cats but I do know that they are available are cat runs. This allows your cat to run free and play in an area that is safe for them rather than them being in the way and possibly getting hurt if someone does not see them when they are playing. Have you...- Shortie

Have you ever had a cat that was infertile?
Much like humans, you may find that cats can also be infertile which means they are not able to have kittens. This is often sad for the cat and also for the owners if they wanted to allow their cat to have kittens but it is something that happens. Have you ever had a cat that was infertile? -
Should the spaying and neutering of cats be made mandatory?
Something I have noticed which is not at the moment mandatory is the fact that cats can be owned and not spayed or neutered. As much as I understand that some people do wish to allow their cats to have kittens, some people do it to make money and not care about the health of the mother cat or...- Shortie

Thoughts on those who breed cats just to sell them?
Something I have noticed and am completely against as it causes so many cats to be left abandoned by people doing this is breeding cats just to sell them to make money. I remember my brother used to have a girlfriend that used to do exactly this, this was how we got Smokey when she was a... -
Losing kittens at birth
Many people tend to get their female cats spayed to prevent pregnancies but we still get a few odd people who will allow their female cat to have babies before preventing them from doing so in the future. When it comes to a female cat having babies, it is possible that all kittens will survive... -
Have you known your cats to eat fleas?
This is something I have only just noticed recently with a neighbour's cat who recently had fleas, he would manage to get a flea when he was washing and it would jump and land on a surface he was near and he would spot it and then eat it. Is this something that is normal for a cat to do? Have...
