Pussycat Friends is a place for people who enjoy living with cats, learning about them and paying attention to the individual personalities that make them such distinctive companions.
We publish practical advice about cat care and behaviour alongside personal stories, observations and reflections on the relationships that develop between cats and the people who share their lives with them.
Understanding cats as individuals
Cats have habits, preferences and personalities of their own. What suits one cat may not suit another, which is why good advice should begin with observation rather than assumptions.
We look at behaviour, routines and everyday problems in a clear and practical way, while recognising that cats are individuals rather than a collection of predictable traits.
Practical advice for everyday life with cats
Living with a cat brings plenty of everyday questions, from food, play and the home environment to ageing, changes in behaviour and general wellbeing.
Our practical articles aim to be useful without making things unnecessarily complicated. Where a subject involves health or veterinary care, we favour reliable professional information and make clear when a vet is the appropriate source of advice.
The stories behind the companionship
Some of the best writing about cats is not about solving a problem at all.
It is about the routines that develop over years, the odd habits that become familiar, the memories attached to particular cats and the small moments that reveal something about their character.
Pussycat Friends makes room for those stories because sharing a life with a cat is about more than feeding schedules and care guides. It is also about companionship, familiarity and the individual animal who becomes part of everyday life.
Warm, thoughtful and independent
We want Pussycat Friends to feel personal without becoming sentimental and useful without becoming generic.
That means publishing articles because they have something worthwhile to say, whether they offer practical guidance, explain an aspect of cat behaviour or simply tell a good story about life with cats.
Pussycat Friends is an independent publication for people who appreciate cats for what they are: individual, sometimes baffling and often deeply rewarding companions.
