possible

exactly what Listiani said. Cats don't think the same way as we do. To them, it's just another male/female to have *beeep* with XD

spay or neuter your pet, folks!

I think it's cz of the "crunchy" feeling

hi guys, I just picked up a female stray kitten today. She's about 2 months old. Her fur is a beautiful dark brown (sort of brownish black), and her eyes are yellow-green. She is SUPER DUPER manja and loves to curl in my lap and sleep.

The problem is that she has ringworms. I've already taken her to see a vet (at Hands n Paws) and gotten malaseb shampoo. Now I'm just wondering if anyone's willing to adopt her after she recovers.

i'd have to disagree with that. I often feed my cats raw chicken neck, gizzards, whatever part I can get. Actually raw bones are better than cooked, as cooked bones are more prone to breaking in splinters since they're so soft.
Dogs on the other hand, are a different story since they're bigger. long thin bones like chicken ribs are best avoided. But my sister's dog is a really slow eater and will slowly chew her food so she sometimes gets chicken necks

oh and btw,

ubat cacing from vet is much simpler. one tablet masuk dah boleh

some cats will just lick the wet food off the pill, so I prefer to use cheese. I give a bit of cheese without the pill first, just to make them happy
I then give them the cheese ball with pill using the method Shukri showed, but since they just taste the cheese they don't fight so much

that sounds suspicious
I think I agree with dfcloud. did she say exactly why you can't enter her house?

I also don't think it's a good idea to move the cat around. best is to visit her.

to choose good cat food, you have to read the ingredients, especially the 1st ingredient in the list which is the highest amount. 1st ingredient = meat, is better than corn/rice/cereal

wow. According to you, kurap cats = ugly and not cute.

"my cat got no choice"
EXCUSE ME??!! If you had done your research BEFORE getting a cat, you'd know that female cats DO have a choice when choosing their mate! It's YOUR FAULT that she's stressed because you didn't spay her! "Not fair"???!! sheesh

SO NICE of you to condemn the cat for something that wasn't his fault. If you do manage to trap him, get him to a vet to get him neutered. NGO's like Animal Care can provide subsidy for the treatment of stray cats.

and if you truly love your cat, get her spayed, and get any future cats you get neutered/spayed.
You might think it's so cute and fun to have kittens at first, but after maybe 10 litters, who's gonna buy them? Your friends already have enough cats and there are millions of homeless cats looking for owners. I live in a condo unit and can only foster one cat at a time, so I can only afford pick up strays that are sick and injured. Currently I'm fostering a kitten with ringworm. Don't add to the problem!

Sure, some say that it's pcminc's own business since it's his own cat, but THINK OF THE BIG PICTURE! Your own satisfaction and happiness versus the millions of other stray cats out there!

edit: okay I've calmed down now. I'm sorry that I appear rude to you, but I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY x1000000 hope that you think this through really carefully first. I'm guessing that your cat is not a pure breed, so there's really no need to mate your cat since there is not much demand for it. Let other homeless cats have the chance to find their forever homes, don't add more kittens that will become competition.

Sherlock Holmes i think

promo sikit

this kitten is up for adoption!

this is why I prefer to support less well known shelters, they need just as much funding but not many people know of them.

DIY litter box

1. Get a cheap plastic storage box. The cheaper the better, because the plastic is softer. This one was about RM9 from Carrefour.
2. Cut out a 'door'. It's easier if you have a jigsaw, but I didn't have one with me so I just used a good sturdy cutter (the type for cutting paper). It'll take some time and your hands will feel sore. Be careful not to cut yourself.
3. Cut off any stray bits to make it smooth, or sand down the edges if you have sandpaper.
4. Get a thick floor mat, the type that's like very stringy ...not sure how to explain. I got mine from Ace Hardware for RM15 i think (can't remember the exact price). It will help to catch most of the litter, but there will still be a bit on the floor if your cat runs out of the box straight after business. You can take it out and shake out the litter every now and then.
5. Fill with litter and you're done!

pros:
- so much cheaper!
- sides are high so litter won't be kicked out
- not covered so it's not stuffy and dusty inside

cons:
- not very pretty
- troublesome to make

and here's a pic. you can see the litter that's caught in the stringy mat.

my cat Tiger is blind so I guess it made him a bit clingy to me. I once left him at home overnight as I had to make a quick outstation trip. When I came back the next day I realised he was so stressed that he pulled out a bit of fur.
Now he has another brudder cat to keep him company

true story from ISPCA:
A young woman had to surrender her dog as she had to move away for work. The dog refused to eat for weeks, but finally the staff managed to get it to eat a little bit. Then the woman decided to visit the dog. When she left, the dog got so depressed again that it died some time later

some cats do play fetch. One of my cats also does this.

Fitrah, I agree with you. Raw diet ftw!

unfortunately I don't have the time to feed my cats raw everyday, but I do give them raw chicken neck, gizzards, hearts and carcasses a few times a week to replace their regular kibble diet. As long as the meat is washed properly, it's okay. My cats are worm free and they love exercising their jaws.
I don't feed them raw often enough to notice much change in their poo, but from what I've read, others report that there is less poo produced and is much less smelly.
and contrary to popular belief, RAW bones are easily tackled by cats. it's the cooked ones that are dangerous as they are softer and more likely to splinter. I sometimes get chicken carcasses very cheaply from the market and they devour everything - ribs, spines and all.

ps. I prefer the Raw Meaty Bones diet. I don't see much point in feeding minced meat to cats when they can easily chew through the whole thing.
