[kitten levels tokyo](https://www.boredpanda.com/author/kittenlevelstokyo)10 hours ago To honor that name, you can call your pet Felix or Felicia – both sound very beautiful and look good on a cat. Observe their behavior for a couple of days. [Deborah Harris](https://www.boredpanda.com/author/deborahharris)11 hours ago First of all, congratulations! Does your kitty like to stick their tongue out a lot? Science can be a source of some unique cat names. Giving your new pet a name can be quite challenging at times. You are now in possession of a natural alarm clock that will demand food at the crack of dawn, an interior designer who’ll rearrange stuff on your desk according to the latest trends (and knock off everything that doesn’t fit in), and an affectionate bundle that will give you the warmest cuddles in the world. And if you are after some rare cat names, you can go deeper into mathematical terms (kitten siblings Sine and Cosine, anyone?), chemical elements (a golden kitten named Aurum will draw lots of attention), and so on. Sometimes it is enough to look at them and you already realize what name will suit them to a T, but sometimes you might have a bunch of nice names and still be unsure which one to select as your final choice. So you brought home a ball of purr.

Velvet fell ill outside a property in East Ayrshire over the weekend, and had to be put to sleep after vets found her to have digested the fatal substance.

“There are strict guidelines for use and anyone who uses this substance to cause deliberate harm is committing an offence. Alarmed by the state of her declining health, Velvet's owner rushed the feline to an out of hours vet where medics sadly confirmed that she was suffering from antifreeze poisoning. In this instance, although the charity don't believe Velvet's death to have been a targeted attack, they are urging members of the public to report anything suspicious in a bid to prevent similar fatalities from taking place. “This has been a very sad outcome for a young, otherwise healthy cat and we’d like to ensure that no other owners in the area suffer this heart-breaking situation. "It is essential that everyone stores antifreeze out of reach of cats and other animals and checks routinely to make sure there are no leaks." [cat](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/all-about/animals) has died of 'antifreeze poisoning' just days before its first birthday, prompting an [animal welfare charity](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/all-about/sspca) to issue a stark warning to owners.

CAT owners in Heswall and Gayton are being warned to keep their pets nearby, or better still indoors for now, after a spate of poisonings has…

An antidote is available, but needs to be administered soon, or the effects will be fatal, without exception. "We don't at this stage know if it is accidental - a spillage - or anything more sinister, but three cats in a few days is a bit much." Antifreeze, or glycol poisoning, affects the kidneys and can advance to brain damage.

Velvet was about to turn one when she was poisoned in Stewarton, East Ayrshire.

Ethylene glycol is highly poisonous and causes a very slow, painful death. “This has been a very sad outcome for a young, otherwise healthy cat and we’d like to ensure that no other owners in the area suffer this heartbreaking situation. Inspector Caitlin Rea said: “This has been an incredibly distressing, sad time for Velvet’s owner and our thoughts are with them.

Many argue the image is edited, pointing to several pictures where the mouth area is blurry, and the whiskers seem overly distorted. Unfortunately, it is currently unknown if the image was edited or not. In more recent photos of the feline, you can see hints of the famous expression. Of course, many people started to wonder where the cat image originally came from. The post features the image of the smiling feline that everyone has come to love. But where did this meme come from, and is that popular polite expression genuine, or is it edited?

A cat is a great option for any family but especially if you can’t always be home to let the pet out to potty. CATS NEED TIME TO ADJUST: The transition for the new cat should be as smooth as possible. Cats like to climb and get up high — perhaps a top shelf can be cleared for them to hang out on or a cat tree with several levels can be added. Adding a cat to the family can be a fun and entertaining experience for all. Our cat condos have multiple levels that offer lots of climbing and high places for cats to hide and lounge. Cats come in a variety of personalities: Some can be high maintenance in their demands of love and attention, while others are more aloof, play hard to get and make their humans work for their affection.

The driver, confused, came to a stop and, in that unexpected window of opportunity, the Archduke and his wife were assassinated. In short, the ability to survive and thrive depends on adaptability, agility and resonance with natural processes. - As implausible as it may sound, the implications of the Schrodinger thought experiment are pointing leadership development towards quantum theory. The most frequently cited example of this is the ‘butterfly effect’, a concept postulated by Edward Lorentz in the mid-19th century. The Chinese believe it is the role of leaders to know the way of the cosmos and nature, and bring them into the world of human activities. For an example of how sensitive outcomes are to initial circumstances, we need look no further than the events that unfolded in Sarajevo on 28 June 1914. Scientist have learnt to live with this irreconcilable uncertainty and accept that that it is part of nature. This, in turn, is being incorporated into the behavioural sciences, giving rise to quantum leadership models. Eventually, after many iterations, the patterns will begin to mimic natural phenomena such as snowflakes or the patterns on leaves. A chaotic system does not settle into a predictable pattern due to its nonlinear processes. The duality represented by the Schrodinger experiment illustrates that different quantum states can result in vantage dependent outcomes. To an observer outside the box, the cat can be either dead or alive.

I look to the chair she used to sleep on or places she would hide around the house. And I was OK with that, because she deserved the same comfort she had given me for so long in our time together. I will forever be grateful I had time to say a proper goodbye — something that isn’t always the case. Unfortunately, the second vet came to a similar conclusion. Her eyes were sunken, but, looking into them, I could still see the sweet little girl that I’ve loved since the moment she entered my life. The vet suspected cancer but it was irreversible kidney failure that was causing her health to decline so rapidly.

Is cat declawing cruel? Although it can be unpleasant to have a cat scratch you, it may be better than having their claws removed altogether.

Instead of completely declawing your kitty, you can also trim their claws. Many even tend to develop various neurological issues, as a result of the procedure. You can also get them a cat tree or a scratching post, so they can scratch all they want without it bothering you. If they continue to scratch your furniture, there are various types of repellants, that deters them from scratching in certain areas. Per PETA, it's a traumatic and invasive process that involves 10 amputations of the cat's nails and joints along their paws. But luckily, there are many healthier alternatives to declawing. So if your cat enjoys going outside, you're essentially forcing them out into the world totally and utterly defenseless. "AVMA discourages declawing as an elective procedure and supports non-surgical alternatives. Declawing is completely banned in England, Scotland, Wales, Italy, France, Germany, Austria, and other nations. won't perform the declawing procedure because of the pain and suffering it can cause. It's still legal in the U.S. Cats can be unpredictable, and let's face it, nobody enjoys getting scratched.

Are you thinking of getting a second cat? Worried about how your current feline friend might take it? TAG24's cat guide has the answers to your questions.

Whenever one of the four steps gets too hard, it is a good idea to return to the previous phase and continue to take things slowly. By taking it easy, while staying incredibly patient and cautious, you should be able to introduce a second cat into your household. Introducing a second cat to a household can be a difficult process, with many fights and squabbles along the way. If there's ever the risk of serious injury, then you should of course intervene, and in any case, the cats should only directly interact for a few hours a day at the start to reduce their stress. The two cats need to finally meet and be able to interact, so don't get too hands-on. Once your new cat has arrived and settled into the new environment, the exchange of smell can begin. You need to prepare well for the introduction of a second cat. It's possible that one cat will try to attack the other, so be present throughout the process. This will destroy the trust that the new cat has in you, and could even prove dangerous. A cat owner should not spend less time with one cat as a result of getting a second cat. Whether you add another cat to your household is, of course, a personal choice. But is that a good idea and how are you supposed to go about it?

Local residents in Odisha capital Bhubaneshwar complained that the cat has been on the prowl and attacked a number of children in the area.
