Some cats always seem a bit sniffly. It clears up, then comes back, or just never really goes away.

It’s easy to ignore, especially if they seem fine otherwise, but ongoing congestion can start to affect how they eat, breathe and how comfortable they are. Sometimes it’s something simple. Sometimes it isn’t.

We’ve put together a guide to help you get a better sense of what might be going on, and when it’s worth having a vet check it out.

Hairballs. A classic part of life with cats… or are they?

We all expect the occasional surprise on the floor, but if it’s happening more often, it might not just be “one of those things.” Sometimes, frequent vomiting is a sign something else is going on.

Our latest article looks at when a hairball is just a hairball, and when it’s worth digging a little deeper.

Because as much as we love our cats, no one wants an unnecessary repeat performance, or to miss the chance to get on top of it sooner 🐾

As the weather starts to cool, you might notice your cat seeking out warmer spots around the house.

For older cats in particular, cooler temperatures can make joint stiffness more noticeable, especially if they’re living with arthritis.

Simple changes can help keep them comfortable. Warm, soft resting areas, easy access to favourite spots and a bit of extra support getting up and down can all make a difference.

Dr Rachel's beautiful boy, Professor Moriarty, seems to have found an unconventional yet cozy spot right here.

Even short stays away from home can be stressful for cats, especially in unfamiliar environments.

The setup of a boarding facility can directly influence how well they cope, from noise and handling to routine and oversight.

We’ve shared what to look for when choosing boarding for your cat for your next family holiday, including why a calm, cat-focused environment and access to veterinary care can make a difference.

Happy National Cat Lady from all the cat ladies at CSS 🐾

Here's a quiet nod to the early mornings, the strong opinions, the selective affection and the cats who run the house/hospital (and know it). We wouldn’t have it any other way.

We’ll be closed over the Easter long weekend and enjoying a short break with our families.

We hope everyone in our CSS community has a chance to slow down and spend some quality time with their people (and pets)!

A quick reminder for pet owners at this time of year. Chocolate isn’t just a hazard for dogs. It can be harmful for cats as well, along with hot cross buns, foil wrappers and anything left within easy reach. A little extra caution goes a long way over this holiday season.

We’ll be back and ready to help as normal on Tuesday, April 7.

Living with a cat teaches you respect, whether you planned on learning it or not.

They decide when they want company. They choose their favourite chair. They let you know, clearly, when they’ve had enough.

Respecting your cat isn’t about grand gestures. It’s about understanding their signals. Letting them move at their own pace. Giving them safe spaces. Not brushing off small behavioural changes. Adjusting the home as they age.

It’s meeting them where they are, not where we expect them to be.

If you share your life with a cat, you already know. Respect is part of the deal. Happy Respect Your Cat Day!

Cats don’t announce they’re getting older the way some humans do. It creeps in through small changes. A favourite chair becomes harder to reach. Grooming slips a little. Nights aren’t quite as settled as they once were.

Ageing isn’t a disease or an illness, but it does change how a cat moves through the world and how they cope with it.

So it helps to understand what’s normal, when a cat is considered a senior, and which changes deserve a closer look. Watching your cat grow older can be confronting at times, but many people find it quietly deepens the bond they share.
