honestly, the eye gunk thing would make me fall for him even more <3

i have no advice, but i just wanted to thank you for taking a FIV+ cat. they almost always get passed up at the shelters, because no one wants a cat who is gonna be sick every few months or whatever. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for taking him on knowing he’s gonna have a lot of vet bills. <3

Assuming you got him from a shelter, he was probably just adjusting. Shelters are scary places for kitties. Lots of stress from the other cats, people, so many smells etc. how’s he doing now?

Poor zee. Best of luck for him. I wish him well. Good luck zee! You got this!

Everyone loves Toby <3

Me especially.

Your angels are gorgeous. I wish the best for you with whatever you’re going through. Hugs :)

Before me, this was one of my cats’ third stints in the shelter. Makes me sad. He’s a great little guy

The bestest boy <3

I monitor the cat shelter website for cats I like (I can’t get anymore I have two already. I just like looking at cats). Anyway, I saw one cat as returned for being “too affectionate”. 1) too affectionate? What the fuck is that??? 2) I don’t think that’s a bad thing. Affectionate cats are great.

I mean, they’re not furniture. they’re living beings with needs and emotions. You can’t get a companion animal and expect them to just sit there and do nothing all day. they need affection and attention. If you just want a cat to sit there and do nothing, get a fucking statue.

My latest rescue came from his third stint in the shelter. I have no clue why. he’s a great little guy.

My cats are strictly indoors. They always have been and always will be. They have a lot of enrichment and soon they’ll have each other (doing intros currently) so that’s even more enrichment. No cat should ever be outside. They live longer being inside only cats too

wtf. You’re cheating on your cat with online cats???

Haha yeah. I love watching Toby on gaba. He very quickly goes from a raging maniac (slight exaggeration) to completely out in the space of 10-15 minutes.

This is my old lass. She’s coping pretty well with such a big change

Also have any of yall given your cats gabapentin? Shit works FAST. He’s dead to the world in 15 mins

it could also be just him being a chatterbox. ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

ofc. I love both my cats and am trying to split my time between them equally, so neither feels the other is getting more attention than the other. But yeah, it’s great having such an affectionate kitty. he follows me around the room and always wants attention from me. it’s awesome <3

thank you. I’m not giving up on either cat. whether it takes a month or a year, or not at all, I’m not giving up on them. I love my old girl, and i well and truly fell in love with mr toby.

Toby meowed. I think that means “hello!”

yup. there’s no rush to introduce them. if it takes a week or a year, it’s fine. I don’t do much with my time, so neither is being left out in terms of attention. and yeah, I already have been using the same brush and I have also been rubbing blankets on each of them then putting them next to the other. Though, it seems like toby is perfectly fine with other cats. He wants to get into the room with my elderly girl to meet, but it’s too early yet. Feliway is a good option. I will check it out

aww. that’s awesome. It’s nice to have someone who gives a shit if you’re there lol. My other girl is VERY independent. She just lazes around in her twilight years. She doesn’t like being picked up, but tolerates it when i do. so yeah, it’s nice to have an affectionate cat.
