Alis girls Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Basil our 4 year tom is mourning loss of our lovely ginger boy Sandy PTS 3 weeks ago. He idolised the old boy and despite lots of love n cuddles (hes not a lap cat) looks sad. Hes eating - does his rounds of the garden like our old cat did. He doesnt get on with Sandys sister . We all miss him and many tears have been shed. Any advice. Hes eating otherwise it would be a vet job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Sorry to hear it, I haven't had experience of this. Claudette and Wellington didn't get on and she probably danced a little jig round the kitchen when she realised he'd gone. Have you tried Feliway or the equivalent?

Daphne Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I am sorry to hear it too, I must have missed your sad news, on top of everything else, what a bad year for you I am sorry I have no experience either, when our old lad was the last of a trio he just became super clingy, and I could deal with that, but that's not the problem for you. I don't know if this is a good idea or a terrible one, but would getting another mog be an idea do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 My suggestion too. My dad always had more than one cat and his red tom was very attached to an elderly cat. He perked up when he got another cat. Otherwise lots of TLC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share Posted November 23, 2017 we have another cat Sandys sister Honey - a nervy tabby. He terrorises her I am not sure I want another feline to contend with. The feliway is plugged in probably needs a refill. So long as he eats I will just keep an eye on him. I wondered if any wise Omleteers had advice and thanks for you help. I have taken my eye off the feliway with all thats going on, Refills ordered.
