I would really appreciate some GYFBH purrs please. Yesterday evening Smudgie chased a cat over our fence and kept on running. She has never been out of the garden before so I am super worried. I have been walking the streets calling her name and shaking her food box but no luck. She is scared...

Our two cats, Agatha and Edgar, seem to have bigger appetites now that the weather is colder. Either I am giving them better food (I have not changed their menu much) or they need more food because it's winter. They share a small can of moist food morning and evening, and have kibble available...

Ok, I'm curious. What does everyone in here do for tuna money? I know we have some, ok a lot, of computer geeks, educators (or what passes for one) and so forth. You don't have to be any more specific than you want, but I confess to being extremely curious. If you're currently out of work, you...

It seems to me I've heard people mention giving their cats tuna flavored water to get them to drink more water. Does anyone know where to find such a thing? -- Joy Don't believe everything you think

Oscar has very long, wispy fur all over, including her rear end. Unfortunately, this means that she sometimes gets litter stuck to the fur, which doesn't please anyone in the household, and it's not easy to get Oscar to tolerate a butt-washing. Usually she ends up doing it herself, which worries...

kilikini's widower has turned the cats out. I'm so very, very sorry! for having requested your help in setting up a vet care fund for her cats. I know this is absolutely not what Christy would have wanted but he's turned put them outside. To be honest I'm not even sure he still bothers to...

I did wind up having the vet come out yesterday. Persia pooped outside the litter box and also threw up in the bathroom (which she hasn't done in a long time). Okay, distress signal! It's time to get the vet involved. Thank goodness every room in this house has a door. I knew she'd run and...

I'm watching "The View" and one of their "hot topics" was whether women should stop wearing certain types of clothing as they get older (the example used was women who were over 40 shouldn't wear "Juicies" work-out clothes. Someone said that *nobody* should wear sleeveless blouses or dresses if...

I have lot of cat pics on a chip, do not have puter, so bought one at wally mart, stuck chip n watched my cats pics, also had c-d made as back up in case i ever get puter. took hour for them go thru 500 pics, as I am very much electronic challenged, on & off is the max for me lol Michael Lane n ...

I just noticed a *huge* swelling around Jessie's right leg. It's not sensitive to the touch and it wasn't there earlier today. Is it possible that the subQ fluids she received at the vet's today "traveled" down to her leg? The vet told me to expect a lump on her back from it, but she...

We went up to see the Neurosurgeon, Dr Ewend, at UNC (Chapel Hill) today, and he said that he doesn't think that Rob's tumor is coming back. However, they're having Rob's MRI films reviewed by a group of specialists this afternoon, and we'll find out what they say tomorrow. If they agree with Dr...

So, I noticed that the active ingredient in Benefiber is Guar Gum. I googled and find all sorts of info about how it's been banned from weight loss supplements. Why is it not banned as a fiber supplement? Are the amounts involved much smaller? What bugs me is...

Hello all, I am the real Holly Tunnell, I am a 28 year old female, born and raised in Virginia. I am the proud slave of a 9 year old kitty named Honey. And the new mommy of a two month old little boy named Calvin. I have been lurking here for the past year but have never been a poster. First of all...

I'm wondering how many other people's cats are very strange when it comes to eating. My cat wakes me up at 6:00 a.m. everyday, whining constantly. I have to get up and go to the kitchen, where there is plenty of food in his bowl. What's more, he doesn't want fresh food- as soon as I walk in the...

They got that son of a bitch. God bless all the troops in all the countries that have gave their lives. Stay safe come home safe and THANK YOU

I have this really annoying itchy spot on my shoulder, so last night before bed I put some Tiger Balm on it. Well! Insta-cat appeared. Vino was all over me trying to lick my shoulder and hands. I had to keep pushing him away and he kept coming back, purring loudly. He also displayed great...

Lately it seems like a lot of us have posted important purr requests - job and financial needs, missing kitties, health issues, etc. In fact, it seems to me that a whole bunch of us are going through some majorly troubling times now - more so than in the memorable past. It seems to me that it...

Sorry I have participated so little lately. Life's been insane lately and on top of it all I've been sick. So purrs for everyone who needs them! I started out having the flu and now it's progressed to an annoying cough. Last night I decided to try that supposedly sure-fire night-time cough...

I know from reading about cats all black and grey cats are basically brown. I just gave Persia a nice brushing. She's not a long-haired cat but she still has a nice ruff around her neck. Well, I noticed it's turning brown. Same thing with her chest. I cannot capture this in a photo, sorry. ...
