I found a Persian cat on a walk on Wednesday. He’s was in really bad shape with severe matting/ pelting and was cover in his own feces. I coaxed him home to my apt and he walked right in. I took him to the emergency vet where I discovered he was dehydrated, had respiratory infection, an eye infection, a fever, was not chipped or neutered, and was flea infested. The vet thinks that he was outside for a while bc the matting around his neck suggested that at one point he had a collar on. They were only able to shave half of him. I’ve been reading what I can about Persians, but is there something I should know that won’t be in the books. I ordered a flat dish for him and I got really good pet insurance through Costco. He’s currently living in the bathroom prison until he’s well enough for a proper bath.

I’ve named him Luffy and I love so much already.

I saw this unique kitten at the cat show in Lodi, California last weekend. I think her expression is so poignant.

She's staying with Orphan Cat Rescue. They got her vet care and paid for her diseased eye to be removed.

That's all I know about her.

Please give us name ideas that start with C. We’re currently giving the same food that she is on but looking to transition. If you have a good brand you’d like to suggest please let me know.

Does my cat see spirits?

We adopted him. Before coming to live with us he had two other owners, which we just can't fathom because he's just the best- we can't imagine how anyone could give him away 😭

I was told by the breeder that the kitten was a girl so all the names I prepared were feminine. Found out he was a male when I took him to the vet for shots.

Need some good name suggestions. Thanks.

petal (chocolate persian), poppy (himalayan), and rosie (orange persian)

There was a rough period in my life where I had to give away my dearest Persian male cat. 2 years ago I found a home for him and it was a lovely family with kids and everything. I would keep getting updates and pictures for months till finally the updates fizzled away. Unfortunately the family couldn’t keep the cat and when I found out, all the guilt I had for giving him away and the love I had for him made me decide to get him back in any way or form. I flew him from all over the country.

At first I was so nervous. What if he attacks me because he is upset I abandoned him? What if he doesn’t recognise me? What if he acts out. For many days I would overthink every scenario. I still remember, when I went to pick him up at the airport, and I saw his cage come up in cargo. He peaked from his cage and slowly blinked at me. And when I put my hand for him to sniff, he instantly recognised me. He calmed down after a while and was completely silent inside the car. When he reached home he went under the sofa. But after a while he came out of there since he recognised the scent of the same furniture we had back when we had him.

I can’t explain how happy I am, but that first day when I got him back… he was so happy to be with me. He snuggled, let me rub his tummy, stayed close to me at all times.

It showed that, an abandoned cat will ALWAYS remember their owners no matter what. It really hurts me that he wasn’t with me for 2 years. I’m so glad he’s back.

I was out feeding my regular stray kitties when i heard a cat meowing desperately. I went to where the sound was coming from and found this beautiful girl! She was extremely matted throughout her entire body, and smelled like urine. She’s so little! I’ve had her recovering in my garage for 3 days. She has a vet appointment today! I’ve never even seen this type of cat in person before so i have a lot to learn. If anyone has any tips for me it’d be much appreciated! 😊

he is the sweetest boy ever… such a lovebug <3
