Quoted from Oneironaut:

She's just covering up those muffins to keep em warm.

Luci is short for Lucifur, and he did this for like 10 minutes, he rotated his position like 4 times, made more than a 360 circle.
We got a real kick out of it. Never seen him chew the blankie like that for that long before, He used to do it as a kitten but had not seen that in quite a while.

I'm not sure but I think Sugar is glad I'm taking a 5 minute break.

Rocket has some bad behavioural traits when playing TBL. He doesn’t know when to stop with the White Russians.

So do we. I spend a lot of time with her in the day. She gets to rule the house 2-3 hours every evening when we lock up the 3 trouble makers.

We had real acceptance issues between Charlie and the kittens. Urinating and poo marking. All that shit, haha. It got better after a year or so. Now they all coexist. They’re not besties and there is teasing from the kittens now and then. They herd him and pounce on him. There’s some hitting back and forth now and then. But in winter they will all climb onto the same lap and now and then there is communal washing. My advice is to have communal treat giving. That’s where they all behave and are nice together. Communal licking of plates, spoons and hands. Get their mouths together. It’s not easy and they will never be best friends. Just what i found. Your situation may be completely different. But we went from full growling, hissing and attacking to something that is sort of harmonious. Then again we combined a fully fledged Alpha male with 2 boy kittens. We weren’t combining fully grown cats. But Charlie is no longer the Alpha male. He’s now accepted that.

I also had them in separate sleeping rooms for a few months then in they all went together in the same room at night. There were a few fights for the first few weeks but they eventually put up with each other.

Merry Christmas to you, your family and all your cats!

Putting some tuna fish water on the outcast cat’s head is a good way for the others to start accepting them. It will lead to “grooming” or at least licking of the head. It worked for our cats.

Those tubes of squeezable cat treats (puree) are good for that too.

Ooooh, RaceDeck. Good stuff. We went with a similar product from the same company about 10 years ago and it really saved us when the basement got water a few times. Had to replace other stuff, but not the flooring. Was expensive up front but has paid for itself many times over and is pretty dang durable.

Hope Karolina likes it!

I remember you saying you had it in yours and made it the reason why we did. I loved it in the garage for the past many years and after some heavy days of rain 2 years ago, I had to figure out a good plan. I had it under the machines for the last two years and finally did the rest of the game room. Karolina seems to like it.

And a huge thanks to Spyderturbo007 for the catnip toy Violet gave her. She has been enjoying it!

Planning on building a house. Trying to figure out what material is cat proof. They’re destructive little things.

We have the rattiest clawed up furniture in our house. We tell ourselves "we'll get new furniture when Alex is gone". I'm happy with ratty furniture if that's the trade off.

I should have taken before pictures, it's a double wide with the cheap cardboard panel trim, those cats LOVED to claw that shit up.
I've already replaced almost all the door trim for the same reason.
I keep telling my self it will be a nicer home when we leave than when we moved in.

The real problem is, when one leaves another is welcomed. Maybe I'll never get new furniture LOL.

We have 6 rescue cats and they destroy EVERYTHING! No sense in buying anything nice, it will just get destroyed.

Our most recent rescue cat is not liked by our 1 cat named Daisy. We came home yesterday to find out that Pumpkin (newest) was trying to drop a deuce upstairs in a litter box and Daisy decided to attack her. Mid dump, Pumpkin is trying to hide from Daisy, slinging crap everywhere. Wife had a nice mess to clean up, lmao.

I'm glad I was not taking a drink when I read that, I'd have a nice mess to clean up from all over my PC screen!

You want the Golden Retrievers and pinball thread, 3rd aisle on the left. This one is about cats.

#4999 4 months ago

Double sided tape and some similar products at pet stores can help some with protwcting couches and furniture. Sometimes putting a scratching post near where they like to scratch, especially furniture, helps with some cats. Some will learn on their own they like scratcher better than furniture. Unfortunately some cats just love the texture of furniture. Wife and I have had many things clawed as we foster cats and have several of our own.

Have had many that love to chase or at least watch the pinballs fly around the playfield. Will always accept ratty stuff over not having cats. They are so fun!
