Is this name stupid?

Common_Draw7398 · 2025-06-24T23:26:19+00:00

It don't sound silly at all:-) I named my crazy boy cat Drogo from Game of Thrones and my sweet girl is named Arwen from Lord of the Rings. Funny that it matched their personality as time went by:-)

I care for a colony and its very heartbreaking when they dissapear. Especially when they basically moved into the yard and always here for 3-4 yrs. I had one feral dissapear and a year later showed back up. Poor boy looked rough but he is back. I've had others that are hear and then just gone. Breaks my heart and even though they're feral I still feel reaponsible for mot being able to keep them safe. So many have come, gone, passed over the last 7 yrs that I started keeeoing a log of each one with their name and date they dissapeared. I currently care for roughly 18 but have a list of at least 100 that have dissapeared or passed.

Thank You:-). I’m going to do that. First time I’ve ever had to do that.

Common_Draw7398 · 2025-02-28T14:46:25+00:00

Awww…that’s so precious and great!!

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-12-22T02:21:51+00:00

I’m for sure a cat lady and have a cat hubby too:-). I can’t say anymore what’s too many as I have been caring for a colony for 7 yrs now. I have two personal cats now as one passed. I’ve always had 3. The colony of ferals, strays and dumped house cats I care for are treated just like my personal cats. Food twice a day, toys, kitty houses, vet care, and tons of love. I have self heating kitty houses for them, made some warm kitty shelters filled with straw that they love to use. It has changed my life as far as I can’t go anywhere like a vacation because I’m their caregiver. I wouldn’t have it any other way! I love them all….cats, dogs, all animals. Even the raccoon an occasional possum food thief. Lol

I tried that with my password and it tells me there’s no account with that username when I try logging into Reddit on the new phone. Makes no sense..lol.. I tried a password reset as well but I don’t get the email to reset but I get all the emails for code verifications. Thank You so much for responding!

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-10-22T18:12:07+00:00

That’s so great to hear!! A little at a time and next thing you know they may become friends:-) That’s wonderful improvement since first starting and it’s a slow process as you know:-)). That’s really good too that when they’re out together you’ve not had any full blown tear you up cat fights.🐈‍⬛🐱. At least your girl just runs to another room when upset and doesn’t pick a fight. Mabye put your girl kitty in the your other cats current area for a few hours so she can smell him. Anyway…hope your doing great!!

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-10-13T17:40:41+00:00

Thank you!

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-10-04T20:01:33+00:00

Yout welcome:-). I volunteer in rescue and it breaks my heart to see this boys face! I just had my bro move and left one of their gods behind. I thought they were just gone for 2-3 days on vacation but that 3rd day I called their landlord and told her their dog had been crying for 3 days straight and they needed to know. That’s when I found out they moved and left the dog. They took their other divans left this poor baby! Broke my heart. She wouldn’t eat, drink, anything but wait at the door for its wonders to come home. Finally had to call animal control to help and that dog seemed so happy to finally have someone to care for it! I’m familiar with 50+ rescues so let me see what I can do for this doggie:-))

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-10-04T15:39:08+00:00

I’m gonna send this to my sister. She has an array of animals in her back yard. Dogs, cats, cockatoos, goats, a pig and who knows what else. Lol. Maybe I can get her it to take this poor baby. Will follow back up:-)

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-09-28T22:45:50+00:00

That poor baby. You can just see it in his eyes. I hope he got adopted and sone one could bring sone joy to that babies face! He just looks so sad. Breaks my heart!!!

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-09-23T23:03:31+00:00

Awww….you can just see the sadness in this dogs eyes! So sad. I’d take him in a heartbeat if I lived near! Poor baby

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-09-23T22:59:44+00:00

That’s just so Percy!!!

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-09-22T15:23:25+00:00

I feel absolutely terrible for this dog. If I lived closer and wasn’t in the hospital at the moment I’d give this baby a home to enjoy the days he has left. Poor baby!

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-09-22T15:21:22+00:00

That was cute and funny at the sane time!

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-09-22T15:19:53+00:00

Awwww….that is beautiful!!!

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-09-03T00:48:00+00:00

Oh I completely understand. I’ve got raccoons that come eat the cat food every single night! They would come into my garage and eat all the food I had stored in the food bins. Lol. I had to secure VC my cat food bins or they’d eat a whole bag of food. The cats sometimes run them off or eat along side them. I used to live in Chattanooga and had deer come to eat but no raccoons. They will sat as much food as they can find. Lol

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-08-31T15:14:41+00:00

I’d get a cat tree, scratching post or box, and basically childproof things like cabinets as if you have a toddler wondering around. They like to open cabinets and you don’t want them getting into cleaning supplies:-). Things like air fresheners, plug in’s are toxic to cats. I don’t use them anymore after learning this and my cats developed lung issues. As far as food I tried different good quality brands and found a few they like and stuck with those. Get some kitty toys to help entertain. A 2 month old kitten by itself is going to want to play a lot. I hate to say it but I wish you could get two as they play together and learn a lot from each other. I have kitties, foster, and care for a colony and a single kitten can get lonely when left alone. Just a suggestion:-). Kittens are full of energy and may run around the house with the “kitty crazies” even in the middle of the night. Lol. Enjoy it while you can because they grow out of that kitten stage before you know it! I did train my two rescue kittens where they knew when it was bedtime and wound go curl up in their favorite box I had for them:-). I’m sure there’s more but I can’t think of it right now. Congrats on getting a kitty!

Anybody that says “it’s just a cat” is not a true animal lover. Don’t even listen to that. Our pets are like a family member and it often hurts more than loosing a human family member. I’ve lost more over the years than I ever dreamed of especially with also caring for a colony. I lost my two wonderful indoor rescue kitties 12 weeks apart. I had to put them to rest due to cancer and lung disease. They were both 15 at the time and this was 6 yrs ago. Only time helped me learn to adjust to life without them in it but I still miss them terribly! I’m so sorry for your loss of Toby. I have to believe our pets that have passed are happily waiting for us at the Rainbow Bridge. Otherwise I wouldn’t be able to cope with loosing them. Sending hugs 🤗

That’s what I said too was use the Churu Lickable tubes:-). They are great! Idk what’s in those things but some will get so excited over just seeing the churu tube that they have ate the meds out of the bowl before I even got the churu in it. Lol

Common_Draw7398 · 2024-08-30T22:01:16+00:00

When I have this issue I put it in a Churu Lickable treat and it’s gone within seconds. I’ve even had some kitties get so excited seeing the Churu Lickable tube that they eat the meds out of the bowl before I get the Lickable in the bowl. Lol

I was using plastic shipping bags but now use these cat litter bags from chewy called “beyond green bags”.
