Hi all, the time is getting closer, our cats are already in Oz!

I've been thinking with all the dodgy spiders etc and cats being so inquisitive, do many expats end up having excats? :scared:

Soon be in Perth!!!!

someone a few days ago said how he spent a fortune to get his two cats to OZ then a few weeks there they both disappeared never seen again, but he lived on an acreage not a suburban place.

No but it is............cool for cats


*sorry* -I don't know the answer but I'm sure they'll love basking in this sun !

I bet they will seeing as they're both black!

The Aussie's love their cats you know. they even take great care when carrying them about.

OMG :scared:


Trust You

Cats are fine...............as long as they dont come in my garden!!! My two pups like nothing better than chasing a cat around the place!!!

Just be careful with the cat lying in the sun during the day, have seen a lot of cats being treated for skin cancer!!!

We bought over our 4 cats, and they are in heaven!!! They laze around the pool most of the day, but we do lock them up at night (dont want them bringing in nasties while we are asleep!!).

nasties...love it
We bought a cat here in Perth...she has just had her first fight with the neighbours cat..i'm gonna kick it up the arse when i see it!

I suppose once they take taxi's late at night and dont accept lifts from strangers they should be fine.

Ive heard about the skin cancer problem.

My Gordon will be an indoor cat anyway when he gets to Perth so that will be one less thing to worry about.

hye pp, i love gordon's christmas hat and good news to hear that he's going with you to perth as last i knew he was staying put

eeeewwwww! Do you mean you'll let him poop in the house? :scared:

Hes always been an indoor cat due to an eye condition he carries.

But I wouldnt let him out in Australia anyway. I think its irresponsible to allow your cat to kill the wildlife in my opinion and say 'oh its nature for them to kill possums, parrots etc. ' .

He has a huge litter tray which gets cleaned out every day.

But I do wish he would learn to use the toilet like the rest of us.

some Aussie invented a sort of cat toilet seat thing (bit like the plastic seat minimizers you get for little kids) to help cats not need a litter tray. It seems to work- but unfortunately flushing is still a problem with no opposible thumb.
