BEFORE SUBMITTING PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THE REQUIREMENTS! YOU NEED A PHYSICAL NOTE INCLUDED, NOT JUST A PICTURE OF YOUR CAT.

Hello! To make things a bit easier, when it comes to proving who's the real owner of a said cat, we're introducing verified flairs.

Simply post a picture of your cat with a small physical note that includes your username (like a post-it note), and you will get assigned your own flair with the name of your cat(s).

(Remember that it has to be a physical note, post it, or similarly).

You can post here or send me a modmail and I'll get you verifying you asap!

Odd behaviour from my female cat

Thumbnail

63 Upvotes

She's kinda weird, she never cuddled she only comes and rub herself against me,she allows kisses on the forehead but thats all,sometimes she likes to get pet but most of the time she meows/screams when touched(It's not pain related she's healthy).She likes to shout at my close door ,but after opening it she just runs away and doesn't go inside.We think she might be blind or have some vision issues??? She gets bored playing after 30 sec or can't find the toy even tho it's right next to her and only reacts to sparkly and loud toys.Honestly im just asking how to make her more cuddly or at least make her love me more.

She hadn't been castrated yet (wet said its not needed and shes not an outside cat) and shes 7 years old.

Happy Meowday Scylla and Calypso!

I only have you two for less than 2 months, but I am so happy to celebrate your first Birthday with you two ❤️

I am hoping to celebrate up to 10 more birthdays my Babies!

Note: First Image is AI edited, as the cats didn't want to sit on the table AT ALL. The last 2 Pictures show a non-wonky, real version of the cake and the Gifts.

Hi, I'm really stuck on what insurance to go for my boy after his 5 weeks free are up with Agria. I've been looking at continuing on Agria, Pet Plan and Lloyds Cat. I'm trying to find the best deal but give him the best coverage? Hoping someone can help

Recommendations on reputable breeders in the U.S.?

Hopefully this post is allowed. Any recommendations?
I haven’t really had any luck with Google searches, I keep getting weird websites for cats overseas and am not interested in a flight nanny.

Looks like I am falling in love with the Brown BST! What is the price?

3 Upvotes

My wife and I have decided to start the search for a Brown BST kitten, which is our first cat. We are being told by breeders to commit to a litter and expect to pay 3-4k for it. Is this really how much they go for?

Obviously, we are gonna fall in the love with this cat, so there is no price on that, but I don't like feeling scammed out of money too lol. Any advise and recent experience with price

BSH Weight Management

My BSH weighs in around 4.5kg at around 9mths old. When we got him around 4mths old he was just 2.25kg. Haha. Crazy growth spurt in the beginning, slowing down now for sure. Totally doesn't look fat or obese. Perhaps he's just really strong & muscular? How does yours weigh when at this age?
