The lil'one just wandered in and started begging for food, I made it follow be down to the parking space and then provided him with some food.

My male maine coon is roughly 5 months old. He's intact, not neutered. Mostly because this property actually needs some mousers in the fields and I'd rather he have a wife and a litter to help him with protecting the farm and get everyone sterilized all at once. If there're any fellow Redditors in the san Fransisco area with intact queens or even if you've found an already pregnant cat, my DM'S and loving are open and he needs a pride extremely badly. I can't start gardening till the rodents are being dealt with and he deserves at least a playmate, ideally a mate and one batch of kittens

I have a special request.

I am looking for the kitten of my dreams which I seem unable to obtain on my own. I want a white long-haired kitten who is friendly. Does any CDS agent have one they can send my way? I live in Pennsylvania and am willing to travel as far south as Virginia to obtain my dream kitten.

found this stray kitten in a parking lot yesterday. poor thing has an infection. i plan on getting some deworming meds tomorrow for her, getting her vetted and fostering her or possibly keeping her.

but can you guys tell if it’s a boy or girl? i’m thinking girl but i can’t quite tell, i think the infection is making it harder to tell but im also not an expert. also any idea on what the infection could be? parasites? she seems to be a little less than two months old

(sorry i keep saying “her” i just have a feeling lol)

So about 5 days ago we lost our little cat of 4 years after what I believe to be coyotes killed him, and ever since our house has felt so empty. And I feel that we should adopt a new cat. So I come to reddit asking what kind of cat I should get, our little boy was a cute tuxedo, but I want more of a cuddly kitten. I also want to add that I am willing to spend a bit of money to get one but not over $200. And I also need to know where to adopt one. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Here is a correct picture of this cutie! What do you all think? This cat showed up about a yr ago, disappeared, then again a few days ago. We were thinking female, but it doesn’t look like there have been any babies in that time. I highly doubt there is an owner unless it’s a barn cat (rural area). We are trying to get them to a vet to check for a chip. This is the best I could get with the camera. Still a little shy and doesn’t like it when I’m behind her/him. Thank you in advance! :)

Lots of cute cat pictures here and everywhere on the Internet. Reddit, Facebook, YouTube, ... everywhere.

The reality is we see a lot of cat butts. This comes to mind...

So let's see 'em folks. Let's see those cat butts.

Keep it clean. *grin*

My cat mated this morning. This afternoon, she suddenly vomited this slimy looking vomit. What does it mean and do I need to seek for a vet?

Where did everybody here get their cot?

because I want a little kittoon and I understand the system is random, but if there is anything that other people do that could increase my odds it would be greatly appreciated

Hi everyone,

Someone my boyfriend and I know had a cat show up to their home a month ago. They believe the kitty was intentionally released from one of their neighbors when she moved recently (she has dementia and her family moved her into a supportive living facility, and seemingly abandoned her cat).

The people who found her haven’t been able to let her into their home because they have a dog and one of them has a bad cat allergy. For whatever reason, they thought one of their neighbors had been feeding the cat so they hadn’t been (which doesn’t make sense to me at all believe me, I’m heartbroken over the situation).

A few days ago, my boyfriend and I took the cat home and to the vet. So far, we know she is extremely malnourished, and has elevated liver enzymes/liver inflammation due to her not being fed for a month. She is very sick, she is eating very little/doesn’t seem to have an appetite and is very lethargic.

The appointment, tests, and medications so far have cost over $800. She is also in need of an ultrasound to look at her liver which will be an additional $600. This is all to prevent a life threatening situation that will eventually occur if she doesn’t receive care, which would be another $6,000.

I am low-income and having trouble affording all of these medical expenses, but I am a cat lover and I hope to nurse her back to health and give her a loving home. She is the sweetest cat in the world and I want to give her a healthy and happy life.

Any advice and/or donations is beyond appreciated. Thank you all so much in advice. I will be sure to keep you updated.

My venmo is JPHOWARD.

Selling my Sphynx cat named Beerus and please call or text (309) 272-9694. I am relocating due to my rent raising over $200 and need to find a loving home for my cat. I don’t trust shelters I want him to go to a loving home please.

I don't know if this post is right for here, but I don't have enough Reddit Karma to post on the r/cats or r/cat, and I don't need advice, per say, just any info one might have on this topic.

My cat is a black and white cat. I was loving on her when I realized that her white hair wasn't solid white. The tips and roots are white, but the shaft of her hair is actually black. Well, a darkish-greyish color. Either way I can't figure out how its possible. I mean, I understand how it can be one color at the roots and the rest be another color -- but how can the tip and roots be the same while the shafts be a darker color? anyone know?

I am also posting this on another community so if you see it twice... Sorry? Thanks? anything would be appreciated.

Sorry for a long post, I'm so emotional right now and I miss my baby so much. I just need to get it all out.

When we moved into our new house in April, we noticed a cat hanging around our house at times. Then we started to see him daily. He would run away when approached but always looked curious about us.

One day I was sitting outside, and he just decided to come right up to me and started rubbing all over my legs. After that, he was always around and I would pet him for hours at a time. He would curl up in my lap and sleep. We got a bed for him and fed him. He's the perfect cat, sweet, gentle, a bit playful, and very good manners. He would always try to come inside our house, and when we let him in, he got so excited, purring loudly, following us around. It was the cutest thing.

I put a collar on him that said to contact me if this is your cat. He had it on for 2 days before he lost it, but no one called.

It's starting to get cold so we decided we should probably take him in for the winter. We decided to adopt him. But first, he had to go to the vet to check for a microchip and get his wellness check.

I was so scared to take him. I was scared I would never see him again, either because he would have a microchip or he would hate me for taking him. I was terrified he would run away.

Well, the time came to go to the vet (this was Wednesday, 3 days ago.) I got him in the carrier by putting food in the back and the locking it once he was inside. He immediately started thrashing around and freaking out. I thought, maybe I should just let him out, I can't scare him like this. But I knew the vet visit had to be done.

When I picked up the carrier, he started to really freak out and he was frantically clawing and biting at the wire door. Eventually he just resorted to meowing and staring at me like "why are you doing this?" I felt so broken seeing him like that.

At the vet, he got 3 vaccines, oral dewormer, flea medication, checked for FIV and feline leukemia, ears cleaned and packed for infection. He hated it and I could hear him crying back there. He had no microchip. The lady at the desk told me "he's all yours!" I set up an appointment to get him microchipped and neutered.

When we got home, I let him out of the carrier inside the house. He didn't bolt out or anything, and he acted pretty calm but I could tell he was upset and acting weird. He didn't like when I tried to pet him. Eventually I let him back outside because I knew that's where he was most comfortable and familiar with. He stuck around our yard and didn't even try to leave.

Later when my boyfriend got home, he was excited to see him and let him pet him. We fed him dinner and said goodnight. Poor thing looked miserable laying there, but we thought he was just shaken up and feeling bad from the vaccines, etc.

We were going to keep him outside that night because we were worried it would stress him out even more to be locked inside all night, plus we have no litter box or scratching post. The only problem was, it was supposed to be the coldest night so far, a low of 35F. We had built a shelter for him and thought he might use it if it got cold enough.

Well, we finally decided maybe we should actually just let him come inside that night because it would get so cold and his ears were all wet from the OTI packs. But when we went to look for him, he was gone. Usually he leaves our yard at night anyway, so we tried not to think too much of it. But that was the last we've seen of him.

The next day I set out food and water. When I came home from work, none of it had been touched. That night some other random cat came and ate his food.

I feel so guilty for taking him to the vet. I was so scared he would run away after, and my worst fear came true. I deeply regret not bringing him inside on the cold night with his poor ears all wet and hurting. But maybe he still would have run away after being trapped inside all night for the first time. I'm trying to hold onto hope that he will come back, that he knows where home is. Maybe he just isn't feeling well from everything the vet did and will come back soon. It's only been 3 days. I just hope he didn't freeze to death out there. It's so odd he hasn't come back at all yet, because it's not like he bolted away as soon as he had the chance. I can't believe I put him in such a vulnerable position and then left him outside. I have so much regret.
