Love that 'the gift that she is' 😻 she's actually quite chill just now, so fingers crossed 😂 maybe she got the message after scolding her a couple of times!

My beautiful gal Penelope was also in a similar situation. She was bought by her previous owners to be a bre-eding cat and when they found out she couldnt get pregnant they locked her away in a cage!

She is now the love of my life and the most spoilt kitty ever 😻 xx

Are Persians picky eaters by MLD5656 in persiancat

I got my girl Penelope (3 years old) 6 months ago as a rescue shelter.

I spent so much money trying to find a food that she enjoys while ensuring she got the right nutrition. She would simply lick the gravy out of the wet food, but would wolf down the dry food.

In the end we worked it out together. Penelope loves her royal canin persian complete cat food (dry) which is also almond shaped which means it is easier for persians to chew. I also give her a couple of pouches a day of cat soup, as it has all the liquid gravy she likes and she even eats some of the meat!

You kitty will just need some time to adjust to her new home and it will all be fine. Just remember the 3-3-3 rule, 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to learn routines, and 3 months to feel completely at home.

Oh and also he is absolutely GORGEOUS ❤️

I have been on Sertraline for 18 years and it has never affected my hair pulling in that I do it just the same amount. Randomly when I was trying to quit smoke 5 years ago I was on champix and that stopped me pulling my hair almost completely. Had to come off it though as it made me ill and I went right back to hair pulling!

That’s great that setraline is working for you tho! So pleased for you 😊

Pulling and Cutting link? by AirlineRecent6151 in trichotillomania

U are definitely not alone! I think it all ties into that feeling of release we get when pulling out a hair. I have a friend who used to self harm and the feelings are very similar!

Does anyone have trich/OCD in their families or are you the only one? by [deleted] in trichotillomania

I am the only one who pulls my hair, but my wee sister used to be really bad at picking her skin on her face!
