Awww looks abit podgy not pregnant but of course pics can't ever really tell, reminds me of a Cat we once had that disappeared called Cagney, he was lovely, very similar! Hope you can soon catch it x0

What a sweet kitty! He looks a little like my girl Daisy, those lovely little socks and little white chin, I love that on black & white cats.
He's really trusting you now PrincessPlaty, looks quite relaxed in those photos.My first reply was witty and intellectual but I lost it so you got this one instead
Proud to be a chic shopper

Awww, cute cat!
You know the verse ... one white sock, keep em for a day, two white socks, send em far away, three white socks, a faithful loving friend, but four white socks, keep em til the end!!0 -
Hissy missy may have been shot by an air rifle or clipped by a car. Torture by child is all too common for cats. But she could also be preggers, I was extremely grumpy for the first few months with DD2, particularly when barged out of the way on the bus!
A lot of cats that have saggy bellies have been pregnant at some time in their lives - as most responsible owners get their cats done before the issue even arises, it makes it quite possible she is up the duff.
I'd keep an eye on her, just as you are doing (and well done!) and she could well have a little bunch of squeakers hidden in the bushes by the middle of next month.I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -
:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:TWell Done, nice to know there is still very caring people in this world, even when the animal has been a bit temperemental with your child to start with.
Looks like he/she has little devil horns0 -
Right im a bit confused as to what to do, i saw said cat being tempted into next doors house earlier (along with about 6 or 7 other cats :eek: ) he was very nervous about going in and when i tried to approach her to talk to her about the cat she slammed the door in my face :mad:
So im slightly confused as to what to do now if it is her cat then she isnt willing to discuss it and she quite clearly isnt looking after it properly and if it isnt her cat, which i have a feeling not all of the cats are what the hell do i do about it
Adding to the fact that i saw another much smaller black and white cat hanging around outside her door earlier today, which fits the description and age range of the lady that came and looked at the cat this morning thinking that it may have been her one
Im really not sure what to do now, if it is or isnt her cat he is not being looked after properly due to the fact his eyes are full of gunk, he is riddled with fleas and his fur is going yellow0 -
If Hissy missy does normally live there, it's where she belongs. Without evidence of obvious cruelty, the RSPCA will do sid all.
And, as you have been nice to her, she may decide to come back anyway. But, check the bush, just in case there are kittens in there, which will starve if Mum is kept overnight.
Although, thinking about it, a couple of phone calls to the local cat charities, saying that you think this person is deliberately targetting/stealing by enticement other people's cats to keep, will give them a heads up for other reports of missing cats.I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -
I have been checking the bush regularly since i saw her disappear into next door earlier and there is definatly no kittens there as yet but will definatly be keeping my eyes peeled!
I know being pregnant myself in the heat im liable to snap if someone annoys me so if that is the case i can fully sympathise with her :rotfl:
It just seems very strange that if this cat does belong to them that it has been in that bush day and night for over a week now
When i first moved in i actually heard a knocking on next doors front door and it went on for quite a while i went out to have a look and it was actually a taxi driver that i have known for years, and he was telling me he had taken them to the vets with a cat and the cat had urinated in his taxi and they had told him to come round and collect the money for it to be cleaned, he was only charging them £30 instead of £50. Apparently the cat wasnt in a cat box neither and he was a bit wary of taking the animal in the taxi incase anything happened and he prewarned them before they got in that if there was any accidents then they would be charged. He still hasnt got that money! :rolleyes:
This isnt the only time i have seen people knocking on their door and being ignored there was a poor bloke from the chemist delivering a prescription for them a couple of weeks ago he spent a good 10/15 minutes knocking and being ignored when he walked away she opened the door to let cats out. I was outside talking to a friend at the time and we actually shouted him back and told him that there was somebody in and after another 1minutes of him knocking on the door and shouting through the letterbox to say who he was did she eventually open the door
The company that got me in touch with the lady that had the missing cat has actually this evening emailed me back with a full list of rescue centres in my area so i think i will be ringing around a few of them in the morning.
It just really concerns me that
a/ if it is there cat then it isnt being looked after properly and how many other cats do they have that are not being looked after properly
and b/ if it isnt there cat how many other cats do they have in that house that they are enticing in with the food they are leaving outside
My neighbours the other side actually have a cat and they dont allow her out i have never asked why though i think now might be a good time to ask them0 -
Sadly the "charites" in the UK wont be that helpful with stray cats. Dogs yes, but cats no. No idea why, it is infuriating0
-
The thing is though this clearly isnt a stray cat, he looks from a distance to be in good health, he is well fed, after gaining trust he is a very loving cat i even had him purring earlier!!
He seems to be a !!!!! cat that has either lost his way from home, or belongs to the neighbour and isnt being cared for properly.0
