It's part of her exercise. Sometimes I lose track of the small flying pests but she'll pay 100% focus, no rest till she gets it! lol

Mine does quite a lot, tgh malam bila tidur she'll bring in telco bill, electric bill, sometimes medicine and put next to me macam she did something really good

Bought a laser pointer a couple of days back
Very good exercise for my cat

My cat is attached to sleeping on my bed with me now, especially with the air-conditioning switched on.
She'll walk over me and my comforter sometimes.

But she knows her place, with is the bottom right corner of the bed

During the day, she's rarely on the bed - she uses her 2 cat beds, 1 in my room and the other in the living room instead.

Mine was up and running the same day itself, as if nothing happened to her

depends on when the surgery is. my girl was walking around, but definitely not "sober", and the shelter vet told me no food for her until the following morning. She was fine after 24 hours, but because of the incision, I kept her shut in my bedroom with low furniture.

I don't want to take any chances. I caged my girls separately. I had to re-arranged the 3-storey cage to one storey cage to prevent them from jumping or climbing in the cage.

I brought home my girls right after surgery, 4.30pm. One of the girls already started to awake while on the way back home but remain hungover even though she seems tried to fight it. The second one started to awake that night & remain hungover for no less than 24 hours. During hungover both can walk but their back legs still weak. I don't know how your cat can already running & jumping the same day, Seager. Probably depends on the anesthesia use by vet?

It's sixth days now & both my girls doing great.
Well this kind of behaviour is normal. Did you try find people to adopt these stray cats?

Mine came home I put her in the cage, she woke up and was still groggy.
She started climbing around wanted to be let out, so I let her out. She walk2 then fall, walk2 then fall so cute

But when we put her back into the cage she starts climbing and stretching again to be let out. So we just let her out and kept her in her bed in the hall and monitored her. About 4-5 hours after she came home she was back to normal, but we didn't play much with her as we did not want her to run around. The same night, all her eating habits and playing habits were back to normal but we avoided playing with her, instead just pet her and made her rest and sleep next to us. Couple of days later took her back to the vet to undo the stitch.

I dropped mine off at the vet at around 10am, and she was done by around 1pm - so we brought her home

Yes, depends on the type of stitch.
My vet is pretty old school, outer stitch so I had to bring her back to cut. I could have done it on my own though, but I figured I'd just bring her back to the vet.

I brought my cat back to the vet exactly a week after surgery to cut her stitch. But somehow my vet's incision is on the belly of the cat itself, yours seems to be on the side. Perhaps different vet, different techniques. Or maybe angle lari kot

I remember my cat started to lick and nibble on her stitch (the reason I say stitch is because AFAIK it was a very small incision), but the vet said it is normal as they are curious. As long as they don't remove the stitch, it will be okay. Just needed to be stern with her whenever she nibbled her stitch, whenever she did it we would scold her and she understood not to do it. Licking as fine, as my vet said it's part of their healing process.

Like I said previously, my cat when in her cage she climbs and stretches so we had to let her out, but paid very close attention to her. No sudden movements, no playing around for a couple of days. However at night, we put her back in the cage to sleep - only for a week till we got the stitch removed and then no more cage.

In my house there's no longer a need for insect repellent. The moment insects enter my house, they have to face the wrath of my cat! Lol we let her hunt them but make sure she doesn't eat them. Although sometimes she does but that cannot be avoided.

Guys any recommendation of pet shops around KL where I can find Orijen cat food? It seems rather hard to come by these days.

I used to feed my cat Orijen before switching to Nutrience (because a couple of stores that I went to had no stock for Orijen). I wanna change back to Orijen, as I noticed that my cat sheds fur now, ever since she started consuming Nutrience a few weeks back. I'm running low on Nutrience now (perhaps 1 week stock remaining) and wanna change back to Orijen.

Or do you guys have any other recommendations for appropriate dry food that would reduce fur shedding? The change is quite noticeable on my cat. She never actually used to shed fur, but now my mom complains every couple of days

Thanks! Will drop by soon.

So many cute stray cats/ kittens available for free
Even patiencegnr wants to give a kitten he recently rescued up for adoption

Let me tell you why you need a laser pointer for your cat:
1. Cats go crazy - Good exercise!
2. At night you can use it to point objects far far away and watch people freak out!

Hey guys,

My cat (DMH or perhaps DLH) just over a year old still sheds her fur. Started 3-4 months back and I assumed it was due to change of food brand. But I switched back to Orijen, and her fur still sheds - and it's quite a lot.

She's healthy, eats well and plays actively.
The amount of fur shed is becoming quite a problem lol

How do I go about this? Any vitamins? Should I bring her to the vet? Her next vaccination is due end of July.

Yes even in one day she sheds a lot of fur.
She sleeps on my bed too so every morning I have to wipe it clean and believe me, there's quite a lot of it.

I've reverted back to using Orijen from Nutrience, almost 2-3 weeks back.
But nothing has changed.

My cat is an indoor cat, clean. She's active and plays a lot when we play with her.
I'm not too sure what other causes might be, besides food though. She was fine when fed with Orijen since the beginning, but her fur started dropping when I changed to Nutrience. And now having changed back to Orijen, the problem still persists

When I first brought my DMH in last year, her fur was still short as she was a kitten. Now her fur seems to be long and thick, however she does shed fur, but not enough for me to justify that her fur is less thick. Well, yes, it is less thick but not so significant.

Not too sure if this has anything to do with weather though, especially since my cat is still active and her daily routine has always been the same.
Perhaps I should try out other shampoos? Or are they any vitamins that I can give her?

Talked to the vet when I visited the clinic to buy kitty litter (since the brand sold here seems to be the most absorbent one I've used). Anyway, according to him it's normal for DMH/ DLH to shed, as long as she's active and there's no change to her routine then there's no need to worry.

Just need to groom her on a daily basis, which I do now - about 5 mins every morning just combing and grooming her to collect all loose hair (which have been reducing now since I've started)

I'm giving Orijen which is good, but he suggested that I may move to Royal Canin since it helps maintain a healthy, smooth coat especially since I keep her indoors most of the time. Not too sure if I may switch kibbles again, since she seems to be very comfortable with Orijen, and given the fact that daily grooming has significantly reduced the amount of loose fur flying around the house and landing on furniture. Maybe that's why we call it FURniture after all eh?

Haha I know I just saw the list of ingredients too and I automatically wondered why they'd recommend me to move from Orijen to RC
Guess that makes sense now.

I give her kibbles on a daily basis, but once every alternate day she gets 1 serving of boiled/ steamed fish or chicken.

I live in a condo, and I have a cat
But then again, don't keep a cat for the sake of keeping a cat. Mine's basically an equal family member

Make sure you have what it takes to carry out your responsibility as an owner before proceeding though!
