Cats, cats, cats

Beautiful cat and beautiful photo, love the light.

Ha! love the post about the bed. My house it's always a gallop to get that bed made BEFORE Arthur goes for his after-breakfast-and-morning-neighbourhood-patrol nap.

Tang, your new kitty is darling. Who is the B+W kitty that is your avatar?

He's fabulous! I love black and white kitties. Thank you for posting.

I have a sad cat report. Oreo finished the pain medication & I started him on the Cosequin for cats. It did not agree with him and he threw up for two days. He is back on the pain med & we have x-rays scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. I am wondering if, along with the arthritis, he might have an obstruction. Since he is 17 years old, I am starting to prepare myself for bad news. Any prayers or positive thoughts would be appreciated.

Ruth, Sending healing thoughts for Oreo and hugs for you.

Ruth, hope Oreo was just having a reaction to the Cosequin and nothing more. Please let us know what the vet says.

((oreo))

((hugs)) for Ruth too

Oreo lives!! When they did the x-ray, they found that he was so constipated that he was plugged up all the way up his intestines (which has also plugged up his bladder). So they are knocking him out, giving him an enema, draining the bladder & will send him home with some different food & a long-term laxative. The vet says that he actually looks good for 17 & should have a couple quality lives left. I am SOOOOO relieved, like dodging a bullet!

Relieved for sure!

Yeah for Oreo ruthbru!!!! What a relief.

S glad to hear the good news for Oreo💛

Talk about professional! Turkish news anchor doesn't miss a beat when stray cat wanders unannounced into the studio:

That's hilarious about the stray cat in the news broadcast. Yay for Oreo and I hope he feels better. Good luck Wren.

Feline ~ I love the heartwarming kitty stories you find! I found this news article with a translation of the news anchor's words and a very happy ending...........

Smack dab in the middle of presenter Kudret Çelebioğlu's reading of the news, a random stray kitten leapt onto the desk — and headed straight to his computer.

Much to Çelebioğlu's credit, he did more than just take the sudden feline interruption in stride. In the moments that followed, he used the opportunity to encourage viewers to show compassion for homeless cats in the community:

"As you know, winter is coming and cold weather is passing through," he said. "It's an unexpected guest, [but] we should cuddle him. We should open the doors to stray cats and give them water and food [...] We all should take care of them somehow."

And that's just what he and his colleagues did.

After the broadcast ended, the kitten was given a meal and a warm place to cuddle — and then so much more. As the Daily Sabah reports, an employee at the studio decided to adopt the cat, giving him the name Hüsnü.

Now that's a good news story.
