Personal Cat Ownership Stories and Feline Behavior

I just adopted a 16 week old kitten two days ago. This is my first cat so I'm worried I'm doing something wrong. He seems scared at night so I've been letting him lay on my chest at night and just let...

Yes, she is fixed. Idk about him. But she is. Idk who that tuxedo is. The tux keeps coming up to me on the porch but runs away every time I move. Trying to gain their trust. Story: the great catnappi...

*[Edit: After reading all of the comments just now, I learned that my cat is not depressed. Instead, she's apparently just 'making some biscuits'? 🤣 English is my 3rd language and I've never heard th...

So a few days ago, I came across this cute little Foster Kitten named Bramble on Instagram. He was found crying under a Blackberry Bush when he was just few days old with umbilical cord still attached...

My girlfriend’s aunt has been fostering this kitten for a bit, and she just picked her up! Currently her name is MIDI though we are unsure if we’ll keep it.

Bagel’s favorites include: Cheetos, Pringles (only ready salted) & Wheat Thins. He is also a huge cheese enthusiast. He once at a pimple patch :)

Howdy howdy :) I drew the farmer’s cat because it was so cute and inspired me to draw again!

It’s been 2 years since I adopted Pudding. She was neglected & starved in her old home and then marked as “unwanted” in the shelter. She’s doing so much better now. Look at how fluffy she’s become! ...

TW: Last photo is his passing. He was the goofiest, sweetest, craziest cat I've ever had. Please share your stories about your kitties. He loved playing in the sink. The first time I had a man ov...

After the loss of my beloved hamster and my uncle, I took in three orphaned kittens from a friend of mine to get my mind off of things. I bottle fed them from day one, as their mother was deceased. (Y...

To start, my kitty is totally fine, currently nestled in her fave blanket and a bit drugged lol. Still, I’d do anything to change those 9 hours of hell I had yesterday 😅 My cat is a model that is ob...

After almost 2 years of fostering, I guess we can now say we have fostered every colour! Adorable trio of sisters, with one brown tuxedo and two tan/white coloring. We decided to name them after coffe...

His name is Brewster and he is my soul cat !!!

Our hound was rescued as a pregnant stray, and the vet suspects she’s had multiple litters. so when we brought home a crying kitten, she sprinted to the crate we were keeping her in (for safe introduc...

Fortunately the spay suit was only on for three weeks and Miso tolerated it okay... at least she looked super cute wearing it 😍

we originally went to the shelter to get one kitty but we fell in love with this bonded pair😭 the black one is fletcher and the brown one is mable :P

In June we unexpectedly had to put our boy Beans (black cat) down and just as we were mourning his loss, his sister Lizzard (mixed calico cat)took a quick turn for the worst and ended up being put to ...

After this he threw up. He tries to stand but will wobble and spin in circles. He pooped and peed on himself too and is dripping water from what appears to be his nose? Mouth? This all began at 11:30p...

First time cat owner. Bugs (Male cat, 18 months, neutered) and Appa (1 year old female, not neutered (yet)) fight like this constantly but im worried its a little too aggressive. I figured it might ...

My heart has been disintegrating over the past month watching my soul cat, Ziggy, decline. I’ve had 15 glorious years with him. He was diagnosed with HCM about 2 years ago, then hypothyroidism at the ...

My first cat through my SO, She made me a Cat dad 😭

Photo dump of our girls. Safe to say they’re a bonded pair and I couldn’t imagine them ever not having one another. They’re off to get spayed next week. They will never know living in a McDonald’s par...

Guys, look at my baby girl! Her name is Eartha Kitty. Ofc, named after the iconic Eartha Kitt 💃🏾. Eartha is 1 year old and 8 months. My cousin from Canada drove her down to the states to me last yea...

So, I’ve been a dog person for most of my life. Still love them. But since my ex girlfriend adopted the two cats of her sister and I kinda lived with them, my view changed. Some years passed and we...

Same name, same white fluff on her chest, same length of fur. I adopted her almost instantly. I believe this was a sign from Moonlight. When I got Moonlight 11 years ago, we adopted her as an adult...

They are so convinced that baked goods are also kitty food and I keep telling them noooo! Anyone else living with a food thief or two?

My thoughts are in shambles right now, so this might come off a bit rambly, my apologies for any mistake. Trigger warning: mental health. I've had my sweet baby since I was a teenager. She is the fir...

Missy came to me as a stray kitten. I gave her away and 3 days later, she was back in my yard. I made her a shelter outside and kept her in my unheated garage during bad winter storms. That summer I...

I lost my 13-year-old cat on Monday. We had to euthanize her after she developed a severe UTI, and her kidneys were failing. The medication she was taking made her sick. She had been my cat since I wa...

I was sitting at a local tea stall when this adorable cat suddenly appeared and stayed with me for a while. Safe to say it became the highlight of my day!

gigi has come a long way since we found him on the street, limp and lethargic. he had a fractured leg, giardia, fcov, fleas, ear mites, and worms. when i look at these pictures i can’t help but feel p...

he willingly lets me put this thing on, i promise he doesnt hate me or the hat i trained him over the course of a couple weeks, he runs to me if he sees me grab it haha

I just got a new kitty and her name is Silvia. Baby Sil is so affectionate and loving (we cuddled to bed on her first night!) Edit: I just want to thank you all for the kind words as it’s getting har...

I posted here 7 months ago when my cat Bubba passed away from kidney failure. Got lots of love and hugs from people. I was just reading through the comments and started missing him again. Its been wei...

Poppy Pants is now 12 weeks old and is the best kitty in the world. I got her when she was 1.5 weeks old when she and her sisters fell out of a tree and her mom took off and didn't come back. It was a...

After weeks of this bird being outside at my neighbors feeder and me bird watching for about two weeks, I FINALLY CAUGHT HER! No one has claimed her yet, but I’m going to make another local post askin...

I found my small lady already gone when i woke up to take her to the vet. She came from a place with a lot of dirty and sick animals, but i thought she'd pull through and grow old with me. Lucia Maria...

My big guy took his last breath in my lap yesterday (opted for in-home euthanasia). Big Mac was my first kitty. I adopted him in 2016 when I was 20 years old and in college. Last month he suddenly sta...

Hes 3.5 and still crazy as ever 😆 🤣 he knows he has to be gentle to the kitty so he let's his excitement out on the couch . *SOUND ON*

Ever since my boy was a baby he likes he sit with his back legs up and his front legs on a lower level. Disclaimer: he also sits normally, nothing is wrong with him, just void.

I know I’m asking for a lot but i love his smol face. He is extra handsome to me. Will he always look like this?

Meet Smoosh! I haven’t seen an orange tabby BSH before so I was just curious and was wondering if anyone else here has a similar cat :)
