Hello! What is everyone using for flea and tick control? I got a Devon and I’m afraid to put anything on her because when I had a regular cat, I used name brand topical repellent and she had a horrible reaction on her neck twice where the drops were applied. she lost all the hair and the area scabbed over, it almost looked like ringworm but after it healed I tried again and got the same reaction only in the treated area. I’m scared to use anything on my new kitten because I know the Devon skin is more exposed and more sensitive. I have a dog that i do treat with no issues besides some mild itching, and i have a balcony which she tries to run out to anytime i open the door (squirrels do come onto the balcony)

Since I couldn't share her images when talking about how Eartha Kitt was the inspiration for her name elsewhere, here she is u/PracticalandContent

I know other folks had no trouble commenting with images of the various Catwomen of TV and film, but for whatever reason reddit was telling me that only media owned by the post author could be added to the thread?

We adopted this tiny female cat from Kuwait, and the rescue was told both her parents were purebred Sphinx’s. She was dumped by the breeder because she has fur. Could she actually be a Rex? She super tiny, maybe 5 lbs, and just the sweetest cat I’ve ever met!

Six out of 7 kittens have been adopted. Only one big boy remains. We had someone interested then backed out. I don’t understand. Me, personally, I think he’s adorable (excuse the eye boogies please).
I obviously don’t know how to add text. I was trying to write REDRUM and it came out as RED RUM.
O wait! I did add “text” to the third picture

Edit: so looks like folks are jumping to conclusion’s like it usually happens on Reddit. The kittens are at the vet about to get neutered. I took a picture for the new owners and Redrum was in it. Didn’t think people would spaz.

Hi hello!

It’s been a few weeks since my wife and I posted. Jappies and Bakkies have moved to their forever homes now and our house has become a little less chaotic. We officially own Kolwyntjie now so we have a very cute mother daughter combo. They play together and snuggle with eachother from time to time. Unfortunately, momma has turned off the milk taps! Kolwy gets a good rearing from Maevis if she tries to get a good pull from the nip.

Moving forward I’ll post some fun content and keep everyone up to speed with Kolwys growth. We’ve also scheduled to have Maeve deliver her FINAL litter come November this year. So January we’ll have fresh baby content for this sub to enjoy.

Here’s some photos from the past few weeks.

Enjoy!

P.S. can we please post videos now? I’m sure we all have amazing videos to share!
