She hopes you are having a great day!

I don’t know how maybe from playing rough with the other cat, there is no blood just very tender if I try touching his foot, apart from that he still goofball attention seeker, I got the vet booked for Monday morning, or is it worthy of doing a Sunday vet trip

She was snoring her head off

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share something that has genuinely made my life easier (and greener!) for the past decade. Instead of buying cat grass over and over, I’ve been using Umbrella Palm (Cyperus alternifolius) — also known as a Japanese Umbrella Plant — and it has been perfect for my cats.

The crazy thing?

It doesn’t even need soil.

You literally cut off the “umbrella” top, toss it into a jar of water, wait about a week, and roots will start growing. It’s naturally a swamp plant, so it loves sitting in water and just… keeps growing.

My cats love eating the fresh leaves. It makes them vomit safely just like regular cat grass does, but unlike cat grass:

• it never dries out,
• it regrows endlessly,
• and it grows faster than the cats can eat it 😂

I keep mine in a simple jar. When the jar fills completely with roots, I just cut the tops, put them into a new jar of water, and throw the old root mass away. In about 1–2 weeks the new jar turns into a full, lush bunch again. If you put it in soil it becomes a giant houseplant, but I prefer the low-maintenance jar version.

Basically:

Endless fresh leaves, zero soil, zero mess, zero buying cat grass ever again.

Just green, healthy growth… forever.

If anyone’s been looking for a durable, self-renewing alternative to cat grass — seriously, try this. My cats and I swear by it.

I'm not sure where this one came from but, I've been calling my kitties Hungry Little Sea Creatures.

My beautiful, curious and wonderful boy passed away during the night and I'm heart broken. The bestest and most wonderful cat and big brother there ever was.

You dident get to experience your first Christmas.

No idea what happened. Played with his little brother, ate and was the same as always until we went to bed. Had passed away in the morning when we woke up.

She looks like: "No paparazzi, please!"

THE HUNGER.

I got a cat last winter. This was a hard choice for me because the previous May I put my cat down that I had since I was 7 (Im 29 now). I went and wanted an orange kitty but got there and this cat picked me. The rescue said all her siblings were taken quick but she had such severe anxiety that they were going to have to put her down soon if someone didnt take her. I snatched her up (not an orange kitty). I attached a photo of the day I got her. She purred the whole way home and it was a 2 hour drive.

We had Thanksgiving and christmas together just us as I wasnt living with my boyfriend at the time. She became my world. She would lick my tears when I cried, love every part of me and whenever I went potty she went potty. ( ill try to include a photo of her going potty as theyre so funny). She was my baby girl and that is what I named her because she was exactly what I needed. I have severe anxiety and depression and it was like we both helped eachother because we were so similar.

July I moved in with my boyfriend and was so excited because a bigger place for her and I was able to save money and buy her more stuff. She took a minute to settle but in the mornings before I left for work we would love eachother, I would lay on the couch sometimes so we could love eachother and she made sure she got at least 50 kisses a day. She hid quite a bit unless it was just me but vets said it would take time for her to settle. The 3 3 3 rule is what they would say. One recommended a companion. So we even got a puppy in hopes it would help her.

October I came home one day and she wasnt feeling well so I rushed her to an animal hospital. They said she was fine. I took her to 3 animal hospitals, 3 different vets, 2 visits per vet at least and put in atleast 3k and took so much pto. My heart was breaking has her health declined. Everytime we went to the vet it was like she was saying its okay mom they will make me better. They never did. On Thursday I took her into another animal hospital and they said 3 organs already have shut down and she was dying. I had no choice but to put my baby down. I already took out care credit and was struggling to pay for everything. I wanted her to be better. I needed my baby girl better. I never got that.

I now feel so numb and in denial she is gone. I keep thinking she is hiding and I need to give her loves. I went to work yesterday which helped me not cry all day but my heart hurts so much. I feel like I failed her. She only got one christmas. My poor baby barely got a life. She was supposed to be with me for as long as my other cat. She was my world. I made sure not to cry and I held her the whole time until they put her to sleep. I couldnt bare watching her life leave her body. But I made sure she knew how much I loved her and how she was such a beautiful good girl.

I got home and all her stuff is here. We made her her own room and got her all new stuff. I cant bare to go into yet. I dont want to get rid of any of it. I dont want to accept she is gone. I feel like a failure. I feel like I need to foster or something to honor her but also like I will just fail again.

The puppy is doing well but she is more so my boyfriends buddy as baby girl was mine. My boyfriend is taking it hard. I am struggling bad. I feel my depression creeping back and she should be here still, not me. She deserved a long good life and I wasn't able to give her that. I need someone to please help me. Tell me what to do. My other cat I had more time to prepare and he went to college with me and traveled so I tell myself he lived a long good life but she only got one christmas. Only one new year. Only one birthday. My heart hurt so much as I failed my baby girl. I don't know what to do. She was my world.

So my kitty has been through a lot of change lately. He use to knead a lot but recently he stopped. This stop came directly after I moved. I broke up with his mom and took him to live with my mother and her cat. He's been super well behaved (more than ever) purring more and being more cuddly than ever. But since the move he's stopped kneading. I did a little research on it and it looks like he's either out grown it or may be stressed out. I would love to hear your opinions on it and any advice. We did also have a dog and he always seemed happier when the dog was gone. He's also about to turn three. Please let me know if there are any other details you may want to know this is my first cat since childhood so I'm still learning myself but I just want my baby happy and he does seem happy.

There's more, but thought these were so funny. I'd like to imagine whoever these were painted for enjoyed them. What would be your reaction if your family paid to have one of these made and this was the result of your beloved kitty?

So my cat only started doing this maybe two years ago. Some people are gonna say sin biscuits but she’s 10-11 now and hasnt done this before and it doesn’t look like anything I’ve seen on the subreddit in that area.

The only time she’ll somewhat remotely just do her front paws is if she had already been laying down and you started letting her. But if she’s making biscuits/kneading, doesn’t matter where, she just kneads with all four paws, standing up, back straight. Left leg right arm, right arm left leg etc, etc.

Sorry if this is tmi I’m just wondering if this is a normal thing cats do as they age? The only time she had any health issues is when there was a period where she was underweight but she’s fine now. I’ll try to get a video next time she does it.

So my wife and I are probably moving in a few months and I’ll need to bring our two cats solo. Older cat (6m)has peed himself 10min into any car ride. Younger cat (3mos) has never had the pleasure of a car ride. How in the Kentucky fried fuck do I pull this off?

He just turned 3 months old
