Brilliant idea, visible from a distance. My brother and his wife visited Cat Island during their holiday to Japan this year, they are cat fanatics but found that real cats living wild are nothing like a pet cat. Neutering makes a lot of sense in feral cats.Quote:

I've 2 cats which are getting up there in age now. The first is Eddie who is now 11, these 2 pics are a year old but he still looks like a young'un if you ask me. He has extra feet on both his front and rear paws, his rear feet look like a rabbits, will have to get some pics of those to post. We had the option to have the extras surgically removed if he had trouble but he has been fine and runs around like a maniac most mornings. He's not one for fuss, if he wants it he will come to you, plus he is very shy around new people.

Then we have Oscar who is 10. He is a very needy cat and is very vocal, he likes a lot of fuss and attention. He is definitely not shy around people and really craves attention. He has his own pillow which he has taken a shine to and sleeps on most nights.

The thing that some people don't understand is that they all have their own very unique personalities, just like us. I'm not looking forward to the day my 2 leave us but I hope they still have a number of years left yet, I know some cats can live to over 15 years or even upto 20 if lucky.
polydactyl they call that... the dew claw becomes a foot.. as long as its not bothering him
Nice cats.
I had a black cat years ago. Found her as a stray kitten on my doorstep one night. Nobody local had lost one, so we assumed she was a feral stray, there were a few about at the time.
She trotted into the house and stayed there for about twelve years until she died of an infection. We named her Lucky (well black cats are supposed to be lucky), but she ended up being called Fang or Beastly, 'cos she'd take no nonsense! She was very affectionate, but simply would not be told what to do and responded fiercely if shooed away. :)
Yeah, think I've heard the vet mention that name before. It doesn't seem to bother him, he functions as any cat would, running around and climbing fences and trees. When he was a kitten he would climb up the wall as we had wallpaper which he could cling too, made a real mess of it lol. The only problem is that some of the extra claws don't get ground down like normal so we take him to get them trimmed every 4 months so they don't get too long. The vets have mentioned he could get arthritis in those when he gets older which is a little worrying.Quote:
