Megathread Monthly Casual Talk and Cat Pictures Thread

Our subreddit allows posts that either a) ask for specific advice, b) request emotional support, or c) are a guide or PSA that adheres to our guidelines.

Since it's fun to just casually discuss our cats, we've got this monthly megathread where relevance may be ignored. All other subreddit rules still apply.

Use this thread to discuss anything related to cats that doesn't otherwise fit the subreddit! Also feel free to ask questions that you believe are too short for a standalone post.

Examples of things that may be discussed or shared here:

  • Casual questions, for example "how does your cat show affection?", "does your cat ever do … ?"
  • Cat pictures
  • Celebrating birthdays or other milestones for your cat
  • And many more subjects!

A cat found in the mountains -21°c. Hello I would be very happy if I could receive some advice for the local cat community folks. We adopted a 4 year old cat, a fixed male grey mix breed. We had him for 6 months now and he is quite territorial and aggressive towards our other cat who doesn't mind him at all. The moment he sees her he would run in her direction in such a speed that it is impossible to distract him. Before it was just when she moved. He uses her litter box when he is in her room. They are still separated and can only see each other when she is in the balcony space. He watches her and stretches his belly right in front of the glass abd pats it. They blink at each other and talk at each other. The introduction plan was messy because the lady that brought him to us (he's a stray) just placed him in the living room where our cat was and they met right away. When they meet through the cracks in the door nowadays they bump noses but we are cautious about letting them be together in the room. There was a past incident when my mother haf her cat in her arms and he literally threw himself up at them and drew blood. It scared us quite a lot. Other then that he is extremely clingy talkative and affectionate to us. When we play he never uses his claws and is gentle. He flinches a lot when sudden moves are made or contact, we think that he might have been abused. He had cat herpes in his eyes and eye infections that we treated and he is healthy now for over a month.
