Burmese cat wants to eat gravel

Tonight (Sydney Friday 6pm) Max suffered a cardiac arrest and passed away. I was with him at the surgery. Max was born on May 5 1995. He was a very sociable cat who looked forward to visitors and the occasional dog. The last pathology report indicated probably cancer, invading the brain and possibly a fungal infection. All the tests were ambiguous. I will bury him next to his great uncle who reached 23 years. He has been my constant companion for so many years. At 70 myself I thought he would outlive me. Life goes on..... "....Rise up slowly, Angel..." It's hard to let you go. 70 is still the prime of life. Purrs for you continued wellbeing. MLB |

Many thanks to all - i have visited the breeder who sold me my burmese cat 14 years ago and lo and behold his mother Kaama (17 years) is still alive and in very good health. So I am getting another little Burmese boy when one of Kaama's grandchildren have a litter shortly. Kaama is long retired and I am tempted to see if I could acquire her as well but at 17 i see in a short time more tears and sorrows so maybe i won't say anything.... and not sure how a 17 ex mum would get on with a kitten. All the cats are in separate cages and a bit grubby for my taste which upsets me compared to the comparative luxury of my place - but I suppose that's the way they have to be in a breeding establishment. |

When you buy breeder cats you deserve what you get. Millions of perfectly lovely cats, often from a healthier gene pool need homes NOW. Shame on you for supporting breeding. Ugh. What goes around comes around. |

Ask yourself how you can support this? NO, they do not have to be this way in a breeding establishment. You are subsidizing abuse. Go see some kittens at your local shelter. I dare you. |

Burmese are the only breed that I'm not allergic to apart from those ugly fur less type |
