Quoth Marlowe View Post2.00am: Cat grabs chocolate bar and runs. Give chase. Step in something cold and horrific on stairs. Gag. Step in something cold and horrific again. Gag. Repeat. Reclaim chocolate, turn around, and realise somehow cat has vomited ON EVERY STEP OF THE STAIRS.
2.05am: Haul ass to bathroom. Promptly bitten by hissing cat hiding in toilet bowl.
(our two have lately taken to puking whenever they come in the house. They'll eat the grass whenever they go outside, which acts as an emetic for them. The worst case so far involved a puddle that you'd expect from a human who's upchucked....all coming from one cat )
Also, why was the cat hiding in the toilet bowl? Are the kitties toilet trained?? (literally-this is possible, you can actually get special litter trays that do this. you hook em up to the bowl, then as they get more and more used to using the toilet as a litter tray, you remove parts of the litter tray)
As far as the "who can I report the scammers to" I'd imagine that if they're posing as a charity of some kind (taking care of several cats would not come cheap, so unless they're blackmailing the owners or someone else, they'd be asking for charitable donations) so maybe contact whoever's responsible for charities and whatnot?Last edited by fireheart; 07-21-2013, 12:02 PM.The best professors are mad scientists! -Zoom

Just spent the last hour reading the whole thread! What an emotional roller Coaster!
I am SO happy to hear you got your furchildren back. I recall at Christmas time, Felix chose to run outside and i thought I had lost him forever, and he was only missing for like 10 minutes. I can't imagine having most of your furbabies taken away for two whole weeks. Poor Marlowe!
Anyway, I am so happy you have your kitty fluffs back and I hope that something can be done about this "shelter". Evil peopleHinakiba777- Student of Divinity-Always trying to get laid.

Quoth Jester View PostIf you're doing it right and/or if you're lucky.....
Damn, now I DEFINITELY have to come to Key West
Quoth patiokitty View PostAnd I can't not leave food out because I've got two cats - one who is a little terror all on her own but doesn't have the same issue with food as the other one. It also doesn't help that he's a long haired cat so not only is he bringing up food but also hairballs...yuck But I wouldn't trade him for the world! Even though I'm shocked over just how much comes out of him...
Mr Francis does that. I got him when he was days old, and had to eyedropper feed him for the first few weeks. I don't know how long he was outside before my friend found him, but whenever he sees food he just gorges and gorges on it like he's afraid he'll never eat again... and then he produces MOUNTAINS of sick It's incredible. I've seen that cat projectile vomit distances of OVER 6 FEET (I measured) and produce such vast amounts I assumed my housemate had been on a latenight bender and revisited it upon the landing... and had it not been full of Mr Francis cat hair I would have thought she was fibbing when she denied responsibility....
OK, as promised, I have some photos of my kittybabies now they are home... some are more camera shy than others, so aren't on here... but they are all back to scampering around, which is great

Quoth Draper Mel View PostThey must be absolutely thrilled to be home. It sounds like they're bouncing off the walls.
They are. Very much so. Then again, that's nothing new
Quoth fireheart View PostAlso, why was the cat hiding in the toilet bowl?
I... have no idea. That particular cat is a little... special. He got separated from his mummy very, very young and even though I fed him the best I could (mail-order cat formula milk) he probably missed out on some important nutrients for brain development. Poor baby.
One of the other cats also hides in the toilet bowl, but that cat does it out of sheer sadism. I swear that creature exalts in causing others pain.
Quoth Jester View PostHoly crap! Just how many cats do you HAVE?!?!?!?
Oh yes, I have six cats. My housemate has three as well, but hers are hateful and I can't wait to see the back of the little fucks when one of us moves out.

Quoth wolfie View PostI can imagine that - if someone failed to check the bowl before taking their place on the "throne", they'd be making some VERY sensitive areas accessible to the switchblade claws. The cat would DEFINITELY be causing pain.
*shudder* Yes. That would be correct."Asking an Irish girl to tone it down a notch is about the same as asking a wolf to leave the sheep alone. Good luck with that. " - Jester, about me

#4 (5mgO0all.jpg) - Great shot.
#5 (EXfYNpgl.jpg) - We have the twin! Her name is Spot, but her primary nickname is Wig-wag 'cause of that constant tail motion. I guess stubbies have to twitch it a lot more to get the benefit longer tails provide.
#7 (7VvRUyjl.jpg) - I hope you didn't naively think that shelf would ever be yours to use...
#8 (lfAGIOMl.jpg) - Obviously an acolyte of Basement Cat.
#12 (uJ6MToel.jpg) - Just gorgeous!
Thanks for sharing, glad they're home.

I know one or tow of you said you have cats that like to wolf down their food and throw it all back up.
I saw this bowl on my cat from hell the other night and I would think it might help with the problem of eating too fast.

My sister has something similar for one of her dogs though I think she use a ball.
I know it says dog but I found it under cat bowls. I think it should work the same way. I did find another one just for cats.
