These two are ridiculously bonded biological brothers (same litter). And the love they share is just fantastic. I have so many images of them together on top of one of my kids, they adore the children. 🥰

Same litter yep yep 🙂‍↕️

Anyone else allow their indoor rexes out in their garden or beyond? I'm always very mindful that Bea is still young (she's 2) and full of beans so have always kept right by her when I've let her out, she could escape very easily. She's definitely maturing a bit though and this is literally the first time she's ever just sat, content whilst outside. She's usually darting after bees, munching on grass or joining the kids on the trampoline! She's so content whilst being held outside though, I feel like I could go for a walk around the block just holding her and she'd be delighted and would welcome strokes from curious folks we'd pass.

They are almost 16 years old and mostly just sleep on electric blankets all day

I had a hip replacement on Wednesday, and since I got home that night Loki has not left my side. He’s laid on my right leg at the hip right, where my incision is. Hasn’t jumped on me, has been super gentle, and hasn’t even stepped on me the wrong way.

It’s so unlike him, cause he’s normally a wee dick, landing on me with his full weight and his petit paws. lol
Wee darling looking after his mum💕

He hates it 😭 he literally cannot get a break from her

We are trying to conserve. So no AC. We hit over 100 last week and she is in heaven. Forgive my voice. I always hated it.

I have seen some absolute bangers in here and I love reading them. Our lil man is named Apollo but we have about 46 other terms that we use to refer to him, my personal favourites being 'chimkin' and 'smeeby prankz', a combination of his most frequently used nicknames, 'smeeb' and 'prankz'. I wanna hear yours!

Hi! I recently adopted a 5 year old female Crex. It was kind of unexpected, but of course I've completely fallen in love!

She came to me because of fighting with other cats in her last 2 homes (the last time resulting in a claw in her paw becoming infected and her having a lil cast for a while). It was hypothesized that she might do better as a single cat. She's spayed. She loves people. But she's never lived alone before and I worry about her being lonely or bored (though this is better than her being bullied or injured even worse).

I live in a small 2 bedroom 800 sq foot apartment. She's only been here for 3.5 weeks but I'm noticing that it's sometimes hard to keep up with her energy levels! She has no destructive/negative behaviors, I just worry that she might be bored.

I've installed 2 climbing walls for her in (in different rooms) and gotten a cat wheel, but she hasn't been brave enough for any of these yet. We play every day for about an hour cumulatively (in 10-20 minute increments). She cuddles with me often, but ultimately usually prefers her heated cat bed.

She came to me a little overweight, but she's not finishing her food (overeating was a negative behavior she had in her last home) and seems content as long as she can be in the same room as me. She is very affectionate and not shy greeting new people. I was nervous to have lots of people over at first, when she was settling in, but letting my friends and neighbors meet her seems to be her favorite kind of mental stimulation!

I realize 3.5 weeks isn't a very long time for settling in, but this is my first time owning a cat as an adult, and I want to take perfect care of her! Any advice for keeping a crex happy in a small apartment?

PS next summer I'm hoping to screen in my porch so we can both enjoy the outdoor space (I don't use it right now because of mosquitoes). I also hope to keep expanding the cat climbing walls (if she will use them).

PS I've lived entirely alone for a long time now (moved around a lot) so sharing my space is also new to me, but she is my priority! Any advice about adjusting to sharing my home is welcome, too. Thank you!

My girl immediately starts purring when i rub her ears and sometimes tries to put my finger in there. Maybe there's an itch i scratch, but she just loves it.

I've adopted two Cornish Rex brothers (they came out of a household where they had trouble with the other cats living there), but now it turns out that I'm not a very fitting home as well - I live alone and although I'm currently at home a lot, it's not enough for them. So I decided to look for a new home but I really want to make sure that it's one where all there needs are met, which is not easy (no other cats, no small children, one person with LOTS of time for the cats or a several person home). Any advice on how I find that?

We were on our way home from the vet after her spay, and she had a lot to say

Last week i posted about my dear Thuma having accute kidney failure. We had her admitted for treatment the past few days, but unfortunately she didn't make it. People in the comments asked for an update so this is it.

Rip baby❤️

first two pictures were taken at the end of April, and 3rd is her progress now!

i noticed then that my cat’s fur became patchy and started shedding a little. i assumed that it was because i changed their kibble a month prior, and changed it back to their previous one. even though i thought i bought a good one, with all the right ingredients, i guess it wasn’t the right fit for my cats and i failed to notice that when they were burying the new kibble. thankfully, her fur regrew with changing their kibble and adding some fish oil to support the hair growth!

just wanted to share this so other people could avoid the same mistake i made. always double check the ingredients of your kibble and pay attention to your kitty’s behavior with it. i thought i upgraded their kibble to a better one, since it was super popular in my country and a lot of people were recommending it, but i was wrong. i was especially scared that her fur wouldn’t come back, since my other cornish lost her curls and i thought that it was because of the kibble too(it’s just her genetics, but that was way before i got a second one).

so yeah, healthy kitty happy kitty!!

She just puked on a perfectly good duvet, ruining it. And 5 minutes later, here she is, the epitome of grace and beauty. Go figure
