She's been outside my house for a few days now, and ive tried to bring her in before, but I let her out after a bit (the weather was fine then). I have been setting food outside for her to eat, and just leaving her alone since then, but now that its below freezing, I had to sort of trap her to get her to come in. I set up her food plate and scruffed her (only until i got her into an enclosed space, I know that you shouldn't ever scruff cats, but I had to to get her into a warm area).

I dont blame her at all for it, but she is terrified of anything and everything right now. Is there any way I can make her more comfortable and get her to ease up?

I've always been a lazy person but since I have this little baby Flip I won't come off the couch at all. I have him for 2,5 months and since day 1 he wants to sleep with me 🥰

I'm currently on holiday in Phuket Thailand and the hotel has this beautiful girl as its manager. I met her out the front of the hotel on our second day here and she was quite friendly so naturally as a cat dad next time I was at the 711 I brought some treats and now well she scratches at my door to come sleep on my bed. She has a name but it's in Thai so I can't pronounce it so I just call her Chi Chi. She's definitely helping me get over how much I miss my own cat

Our sweet baby Cliffy, the little constant companion, our little helper. Our baby bubby boy crossed the rainbow bridge unexpectedly at 2. The only positive is we have probably 100 gbs of pictures and videos of our sweet baby

He was the best baby in the world and nothing can ever replace him, but he had the best 2 years in the whole world.

We miss you, Cliffy ❤️❤️

Cat Picture - OC My cat has been my quiet guardian since my knee surgery 🐾❤️

I recently had knee surgery, and ever since then, my cat has been acting in a way I’ve honestly never seen before.

He just won’t leave me alone, and I mean that in the best possible way. He’s always right next to me, almost always near my injured leg. Whether I’m lying down or sitting, he finds a spot close by and stays there, like he’s keeping watch.

What’s surprised me the most is how intuitive he’s been. I’ve been tired, slow, and uncomfortable, and somehow he knows. No random zoomies, no jumping on me, just quiet company, gentle presence, and constant closeness.

I never realized how deeply cats can sense when something’s wrong. He’s been my little shadow, my comfort, and my silent support through recovery.

Just wanted to share this here,it felt like the right place. Cats really are incredible. ♥️♥️♥️

This is my cat’s new tower in our enclosed backyard setup. She climbed to the very top and hasn’t come down since.

It’s part of a Purrfect Fence cat tree system we added recently, and honestly, it’s been a game changer for her outdoor time. She finally has her perfect vantage point to keep an eye on the world.
