  • It's very cold for a cat to be out 24/7 at this time of year. If you want I could send you a sachet of Frontline I always have a stash for when mine start getting infested.

    It's very telling that you refer to your cat as 'it' rather than 'he' or 'she'. I'm on benefits and have a cat, but cat food, fresh litter and flea treatment are priorities in my budget. It doesn't sound like you want the cat - and as it's a big responsibility maybe it's time to think about giving up and rehoming him or her?

  • If you gave it a flea treatment and let it in, it would probably kill all those spiders you're so scared of, you're complaining about them in The Arms.


    Just a thought...
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Please please contact someone like Cats Protection and get the cat properly looked after. What you are doing is neglecting it, which I think is an offence, and certainly cruel.

    Anyone else notice!

    My cat only likes me when it wants something to eat and when it had something to eat it doesn't want to know me.

    Its really annoying that, anyway I have to leave my cat outside all the time as no way I can't have it inside my flat as its infested with fleas and I can't afford treatment for it as I am only on Job Seekers so I leave it out all day and all night but I do let him in when It wants feeding and then when it had something to eat then I put it back out.

    I just can't have it in my flat anymore, last year was a nightmare as I had fleas every day even on me, not having it again as I can't cope like last year. :mad:


    Its not an "it" it is a living breathing animal which has feelings and it is quite plain to see that you have no empathy towards animals at all so get off your job seekers backside and take kitty kat to your local rescue centre where he/she will be cared for properly.

    I find it ironic (and very, very sad) that the OP is complaining that this poor cat 'only likes him when it wants something to eat' but he then goes on to say as soon as it has had something to eat he puts it back outside.

    !!!!!!, is there any wonder this poor cat is not affectionate to the OP?

    I hope he does the best thing for this poor cat and lets someone who will care for it take it in.

    Yeah but by feeding it the OP does not realise fleas jump and his flat will be full of them! :eek: (Fleas that is not cats...)
