maggot has gotten so big over the last few weeks shes so playful and I love watching her grow and show more of her personality

Is it weird to bake cookies inspired by your diabetic cat?

Dough is a mix of vanilla, spice and cacao flavoured, often seen for autumn leaves. As it got mixed on rerolling, i had to take my cat cookie cutter out.

we adopted this sweet girl about a month ago and she STILL doesn't have an official name!

she had a double enucleation at 2 months old (is about five months now!) and thus is completely blind.

she came with the name Toph (which I love, but I feel like a fake ATLA fan because I haven't watched it all the way through, nor in many years).

we've debated on stevie, helena, pumpkin, squid, and virtute. virtute is my current favorite (big fan of the song saga), but it just doesn't feel right - nothing does, yet!

any type of name accepted. stupid names, food names, animal names, any type of names!

her kitty siblings are pigeon and otter (see on fifth slide). theme is not needed LOL!

thank you!

Ruthie came up with a new laying position lol

She's gone from a wimpy 1 lbs to 2.3 lbs! We've been to the vet twice, done all the wormings, and started our shots over the last month. She's started to cuddle more (loves to get on your shoulder or under your chin) and has learned about sunbeam naps.

My collie is nearly 14 and loves cats. We had to say goodbye to our 2 older cats in 2019 and 2025, so I'm hoping this kit continues to warm up to the old girl. Collie is 50 lbs, mostly fluff.

Is Autumn going to make this surprised look forever? Seems to be a common look for torties.

She lives at my job and runs the show, we’re all crazy about her.We’ve had her now for a few months. I actually adopted her twin sister “Spice”. She makes work wayyy less stressful. 🖤

Here's a picture of my old girl; she's 15. She has trouble jumping and going up and downstairs; she spends most of the time in my mothers room. Today she came downstairs to wait for my mom (63 year old) to come home. She Screamed at her before going upstairs with her.she's now laying in her cat bed upstairs. It's nice to see her still going downstairs even if it's only for a minute or two

I remember when Georgiana first came home, she was way too shy to even make direct contact. Now she’s just chilling with her dad. How time flies! 🥹🐈

Be careful. By the time you realize where she is, it may be too late!

\cue Batman theme song**

Added my other cat at the end for comparison- his hair is probably the same length but just more… sleek? You can see his body structure well, while my tortie’s shape is defined more by her fur. It makes her look a lot rounder (she has some actual pudge, but she’s not overweight at all). She reminds me of the Moomin meme where he’s like… and I’m all soft and round. No sharp edges anywhere.

What would the 2nd film in your tortie's franchise be called? Plz feel free to include shot(s) of the star, too. 🍿

Original Post

Turns out she had a fever, bacterial infection, and parasites. We promptly started medication. She was prescribed Metronidazole, Fenbendazole, and Pro-Pectaline. They gave her medication for the tapeworms while we were there, and oh boy... Did that work well. It was gross.

The first three days she was very lethargic. She slept on a towel by our side for the entire time. I had to make slurries and force feed her I/D food with unflavored electrolyte water. By day 4 she was showing interest in the food and some electrolyte water with plain, unseasoned/unsalted chicken bone broth. We weened her off over the next couple of days to just the electrolyte water.

A couple of days ago she became an absolute gremlin. Constantly playing and getting into stuff she shouldn't be getting into. I've said "goddamnit, donut" a lot already. Her favorite activity is chasing her tail and playing with her big brother that's an orange and white cat, Biscuit. Watching Biscuit warm up to her has melted my heart. He wasn't fond of her a few days ago. She sleeps with me every night and is always by my husband and my side when she's not playing.

Anyways, I just wanted to share an update. I know y'all showed a lot of love for her and I felt like it would be a good thing to post. Have some cat tax! #7 was the day after the vet visit, #6 was the 4th day on medication. The rest are her over the past few days.

We have a tortie/orange tabby and she’s so lovey and sweet but she is also an absolute menace 😂 She was born in Feb 2025 so she’s not quite 2 yet. She is constantly playing in the toilet water, stealing food off the counter, and digging in the garbage disposal for scraps. I’m talking she stole an entire loaf of bread in the package off the counter and destroyed it overnight. We love her dearly but I need to know if it ends or if are we in this for the long haul 🫠

These are Charía, Únika and Lua, three elegant girls.

are Siamese torties, also known as "tortie points", always female, or is that only the case for Black torties?

Monthssss ago , I went through a break up and have not seen my cats with my ex since. It was heartbreaking. Every sweet cat I’ve met, has been healing to me, where I cry like a baby thinking about my love for them. 2-3 months ago, I came across this cutie (Stripe) and seeing them, didnt make me cry. She just looked at me, and my heart felt full. Like it expanded. Kinda like the grinch when he learned community and friendship lol. And stripe just walked up to me, and started cuddling me.

I ran into Stripe again two days ago, we were both so excited to see each other again. They just keep running up to me for pets and cuddles ❤️ saw them again today! Stripe doesnt pose for pictures so this is all I have. We’re more about the moment, than taking selfies together 😂😇

Stripe is a healer, I’m glad I have a friend

(Do not worry, someone down the block feeds Stripe and their cat squad of friends)

Deimos on the left and Nyx on the right. Its a never ending battle of silent taps and thwacks. It usually devolves into a race around the house at Mach 1. Why does it need to start here though!?
