One of our cats wont stop scratching a scab. A very small issue has been dragged on (by her) for months. She's now in a body suit for her own protection, but she hates it!

You can tell she is feeling sorry for herself. She is sleeping most of the day and at night is sleeping on my chest or pillow. Her urge to wash is high as she cant wash most of her body due to the suit, so at the moment I am being woken up several times a night by a cat washing me. :|

Looks cute though.

Ours actually brings you his toys when he wants to play, plus bags of his treats when he wants one (not kidding he drops them at your feet and meows).

I swear he thinks he's a dog.


That is so cute. Our tabby used to play 'fetch' with one of her toys but now she just runs after it and sits beside it. Clearly she can't be arsed anymore :lol:

This one was taken shortly after she was placed in the suit whilst she was most miserable.

She managed to sneak out of it overnight. The smartcam actually caught ten minutes of her wriggling around with only half her body in. Unfortunately this gave her more scratching time, so we've moved back again with her recovery / supercat suit.

And a bonus photo of both of our cats together...

Frankie is the cat in the recovery suit. We rescued her from the RSPCA. She previously lived in a 22 cat household. Last night she slept on the bed all night, either on my chest, between the two of us, or resting against my leg. She is super clingy whilst in this suit, but she also snores as a result of it, so great combo for me! I think it's due to it giving her restricted movement. We think she is a Russian Blue or British Shorthair cross. She is an absolute sweetheart. We've had her for two years and had not heard her hiss once before we tried putting the suit on her for the first time!

Sofie is without doubt a Sealpoint Ragdoll. She is a little older and was adopted from some friends who sadly had to rehome her after she was bullied by one of their other cats. She has feline coronavirus, which causes her to have stomach problems, though through strict diet, several courses of medication and regular grooming, the symptoms now seem to be under control. She is happiest sat on her cat tree in our Conservatory, although she is currently sat purring on my lap.

We are luckly to have two lovely cats, though they are both very different both in appearance and personality.

One of my cousins has a ragdoll cat that follows her around when she takes the dog for a walk, properly trots alongside her too.

We had a Christmas meal with the cat - meat snowman for him (boiled chicken and mashed potato body, twiglet arms and biscuit eyes), he seemed pretty happy with it.
