Cats and Kittens

“I put down my book, The Meaning of Zen, and see the cat smiling into her fur as she delicately combs it with her rough pink tongue.
Cat, I would lend you this book to study but it appears you have already read it. She looks up and gives me her full gaze.
Don’t be ridiculous, she purrs, I wrote it.”
- from “Miao” by Dilys Laing

Cats and kittens fascinate us humans. Just look at the general obsession with them that has taken over the internet. Everybody loves cats, cat pictures and of course, cute kittens in any way, shape or form. We have a growing number of articles on cat and kitten care and also welcome questions or stories and pictures too so don’t be shy… we don’t scratch.

	Cat Behaviour and Training Contrary to popular opinion it is not impossible to train a cat. Okay, so I wouln’t expect to see one rounding up sheep anytime soon but you can encurage changes in their behavior that will make them better housemates. If your puss is biting the kids, scratching the furniture or pooping in the wrong places then this is the section for you.
	Cat Breeds The character and requirements of cats from specific breeds tend to run true to type so can give you insight into which cat breed is right for you.
	Cat Health From kitten to adult cat, cats are prone to various diseases and medical conditions. Some are perfectly well treated at home while others will require veterinary intervention.
	Cat Rescue Breed specific rescues or your local animal shelter are a great place to find your next kitten or adult cat companion.
	Cat Tales Cat lovers love nothing more than reading about cats. The funny things they do, the mischief they get up to and  how they grew from kitten to cat.

Meet Snowball the Ragdoll and her new friend Mari. Some people are surprised that German Shepherds can be so gentle with tiny kittens but I am not. I once had a male German Shepherd called Max that fostered a tiny kitten that I brought home from the RSPCA.
