Please Be Careful (ONE MORE CAUTION) Posted by: Smudge's Mom - 09-03-2022, 05:35 PM - Forum: General Chat - Replies (9) My friend was bitten by her cat this week.. Foolishly, she didn't have it taken care of immediately and now has  been in the hospital for 4 days on IV antibiotics.  The doctors think the meds are taking effect and hopefully she will be able to go home tomorrow.  Thank goodness her boy was up to date on his shots so Animal Control did not have to be involved and he did not have to be put into isolation for 10 days. Please if you get bitten, take care of it properly IMMEDIATELY.   Together Again Posted by: HelenMac - 08-29-2022, 11:32 PM - Forum: Ragdoll Cat Gallery - Replies (3) Alls right with the world. Together again. Shadow is Home Posted by: HelenMac - 08-29-2022, 02:26 AM - Forum: Ragdoll Health - Replies (10) Shadow is finally home.  We go back next Monday to get the stitches out.  They gave me this suit to put on shadow to stop him getting at the stitiches I did crack up laughing its for a rabbit.  My boy is 8kg no way I can get it on him.  As soon as he got home straight to his food bowl for dinner.  Then off to the bedroom into the cat carrier thats always out for sleep.  I havn't even had a cuddle yet.  Jess showed me a lovely video of her and Shadow having cuddles. She said she would have happily taken him home umm no he's my boy.  But  I gave her a photo of Shadow in a fridge magnet frame and a card saying thanks for Taking such loving care of me Love Shadow.   Special Day Posted by: Smudge's Mom - 08-26-2022, 05:25 PM - Forum: General Chat - Replies (7) Stan and I are married 60 years today.  We cleaned bathrooms and litter boxes together.  Now that is true love.   Happy 2nd birthday Wesley! Posted by: Codysmom - 08-26-2022, 11:13 AM - Forum: Ragdoll Cat Gallery - Replies (7) My adorable, affectionate, chatty, ball-of-fun has gone from this at 6 weeks: to this...2 years! At 9 months: At 11 months: Time passes far too quickly! He still gets up to the craziest things and keeps us on our toes, but I wouldn't change a thing about him. He's become so chatty and IS a cat the actually comes when you call him! Well at least about 85% of the time, which for a cat must be close to breaking record. LOL! Here are a few random, recent shots of him to share with you all. xo He was on top of the refrigerator goofing around and chatting to us so I grabbed the step ladder and captured these shots, a few of the pics show him mid-meow. Such an adorable cutie-pie!  As you can see, he has a LOT to say! LOL   Pray for Shadow Please Posted by: HelenMac - 08-21-2022, 10:26 PM - Forum: Ragdoll Health - Replies (27) Please pray for Shadow don't know whats wrong he's vomiting bile doesn't want to eat but also won't climb up onto the cat towers just lies on the floor he's quite miserable couldn't get an appointment at the vet so they said to drop him in early this morning so I put my sweatshirt I've worn last 2 days into the carrier for him to lie on to hopefully give him some comfort as he gets so stressed at the vet. They  put his carrier with him in it into a larger cage and left the carrier door open so he can choose whether to remain in it or get out into the big cage.  The vet rang and said they need to sedate him so  xray his tummy and draw bloods ect as he's very unwell..     Fluffy and I moved house (and I got Covid) Posted by: MUM_of_FLUFFY - 08-14-2022, 07:10 PM - Forum: General Chat - Replies (12) After careful deliberation I decided it was time to downsize from a house to a flat. I feel terribly guilty about taking Fluff's enclosure away from him - but he seems to be coping remarkably well. He does need a lot of extra attention and is demanding many cuddles and lots of play-time. I got Covid immediately following the move and even though I had my 4th vaccine 25 days before I got Covid it still hit me pretty hard. I will write more about our move and hopefully post some pictures soon... Pam x   Unusual visitor Posted by: Codysmom - 08-08-2022, 04:40 PM - Forum: General Chat - Replies (4) We've had a rather interesting visitor these past couple of weeks; we were surprised to see this chap in our garden. Although, Vervet monkeys are endemic in various parts of South Africa they're not, to my knowledge, widespread in our area. However, for the last few weeks this chap has been in the area and after about a week decided our garden was a safe spot - with food (which we actually put out for the birds). I did feel sorry for this poor, little chap, he was obviously very hungry and loved the fruit and peanut butter we give the birds.  At first he would charge off whenever he saw one of us, but after a week or so I think he realised we weren't a threat and would just watch us while he enjoyed his breakfast. He was all on his own and having to obviously fend for himself, which must have been difficult for him with all the large dogs around the neighbourhood. I also noticed he had an injured front paw, so, I decided to contact our local SPCA who came and set a trap and we managed to capture him last Thursday. The wildlife vet would to give him a thorough checkup and then he would be taken to another province into a wildlife sanctuary. I'm sure he'll be happy to be able to join a troop, and of course, have enough food. Although, I do miss seeing him around the garden. The cats were startled at this strange 'creature' they'd never seen before. It was comical watching their reactions.   Boys Bird Watching Posted by: HelenMac - 07-03-2022, 09:11 PM - Forum: Ragdoll Cat Gallery - Replies (3) Morning Bird Watching Bird Watching Is exhausting time for a snooze with mum   Horrible Weather Posted by: Smudge's Mom - 06-21-2022, 04:53 PM - Forum: Other Pet Gallery - Replies (1) Because of a horrendous heat wave and lack of air conditioning, one of the local shelters is fostering out their animals for a few days.   My daughter, Judy, took this little lady.   She swears she is returning her Thursday evening.  I will believe that when it happens.
