CATS!!!!

[JEZGUZ]

Get used to cleaning up white hairs from everywhere, I had a white cat and he shed hair at every opportunity. If you hold the kitten in your hand and point it away from you at eye level ( a suitable distance away from your face) it should be easier to work out the sex.

V difficult to sex them as tinies, Thought our one was going to be a girl when v little, but nope he's a boy!
I'd hazard a guess that your one is a boy tbh by the looks( but I wouldn't stake a £20 note on it!)
White ones are unusual, our one as mentioned above is white but with a tabby tail, he's always washing himself, and doesn't seem to leave hairs everywhere .
Well done for taking one on anyway

I think it's appalling that you are forcing your outdated concepts of gender on the poor cat - it's old enough to know it's own mind regarding it's gender status, and you should be supporting it/him/her

Tonight I got woken up by a cat having problems with the cat flap. I figured I'd help, probably gotten stuck in the mosquito net again. As I approached the cat got real panicky and forced it's way out. Weird I thought. Then I looked closer and saw it wasn't our cat. The neighbors cat, pretty fat too. I wonder if we've been feeding it...

If your cats are chipped, you could fit a cat flap with chip recognition. Unless they all walk in in a train.

one of my colleagues from work (and is a hybrid worker) called from home to ask for a replacement keyboard as as her cat had chewed the keyboard cable..... it must have been a stupid cat, surely it would have gone for the mouse cable.

They aren't but am considering it now, happened again this night!

Just brought this home from the pub. The last of the three kittens and tbh the most independent. A little male, christened Sydney before anyone knew the sex, fitting as he hissed before he meowed. We figured given today's climate we'd let him identify however he wants...

I thought he was pure white but it turns out he's got GINGER ears and tail. Too late to say no now as we said we'd have him!

It may be for the best anyway, as all white cats can be deaf. Our white one has a few tabby splodges which give him even more character .
Your new fella looks great anyway

Seems pretty chilled so far. Confined to the big downstairs play room at the mo. 1st vets appointment tomorrow. Not yet introduced him to our big old tom cat.

I think it’s more “You’re not my mother! You can’t tell me what to do! Oh, food………., hi mum”

Still looking for a new cat all ours have passed away, the long haired was the most loving one we ever had

This was ours (well it was my sons first) but he's left home again.
He's done it before but he's been gone 4 months now. Does not even come back to est now.

We know he is about as Neighbour sends up pics from his wildlife camera daily..
I even captured him a few days ago.
Took him inside to let my wife stroke him. Then let him go again hoping he will return one day......... (but I have done this 6 times now)

One of our cats (Jasper) did that. At about a year old (and yes, he’d got his bits chopped off), he just started upping and leaving. We always left out biscuits, and I’d sometimes catch him stuffing his face in the kitchen, in the middle of the night. This all went from a week away, to 2-3 months at a time.

We were so convinced that he would eventually not bother coming back, that we took on a kitten from the cat rescue. Another 2 months passed, and Jasper walked in, saw the kitten, and never left home again. Not that he loved Toby, in fact he hated him from day one, but I think Jasper felt he was in danger of losing his expedition base if he left home long term again.
