Re: my stray cat
If your cats coat seems greasy you could try powder her down with baby talc leave it in her coat for about 15 mins then brush it out again that will help to dry out some of the oils, i do my cats with it about once a month or so if they start to look a bit greasy
and well done for taking the cat in im sure you will be rewarded with lots of love and purrs from her ![]() |

Re: my stray cat
Could her coat just be oily/greasy because she has not had a proper diet or care while she has been out?
You are doing a great thing by taking her in the picture of her is lovely ![]() I do agree to probably take the collar off her and get her some flea treatment from the vet. I have been there with inspecting poo and its not nice, my little kitty had worms and she had the treatment and now all is ok, so she may need a stronger de-wormer. Hope all is well for you and your new furbaby and you can get everything sorted ![]() |

Re: my stray cat
God bless you for being such a nice, caring person, dont cats seem to pick on nice people to go to, its like a sort of telepathy. I really hope she gets well, she is a pretty little cat. I had a little feral cat come to me last year, I fed her outside for a month and she came to be a lovely cat, I could see she was in kitten so I caught her, like you in a trap and took her to the Cat Protection. She had five kittens and she and they were rehomed, I couldnt keep her cos my JT is a real tyke but at least she had a home. Good luck in all you do.

Re: my stray cat
Thank you all for your kind support!
I have taken everything on board you have told me and I have taken the collar off. I will get some spot on flea stuff from the vet. I know they sell it because I get it for my other furbabies Oh no! Nutmeg just walked into my office while I was typing and ate Bean-nighes food. I am so worried now. I hope she hasnt caught anything of her. Oh no my worrying never stops. ![]() I did take some pictures of Ben earlier and put it in my album in my profile if you want to have a look? Here is one I made earlier ![]() ![]() I hope nutsynoonoo (nuttymeg's geisha name ) wont be getting ill now ![]() |

Re: my stray cat
she has nice clear eyes.
about her runny poop, maybe it will just take time for her tummy to get used to regular meals!! and the oily chest, does it smell? maybe she laid in something when she was on the streets. have you tried to wash the area with cat shampoo or would she not let you? i guess one thing at a time while she gets to know you etc.. does she purr much? do you think she is happy to have got a home? i am!!!!! lol.... ![]() how long have u had her now? |
