My two cats have an entire large bed with comforter to sleep on. Why, however, do they invariably chose to sleep on whatever article of clothing I've laid on the bed (suit jackets, sweaters, whatever)?

My dad's cat is at least 16 years old. He doesn't seem to be in any distress but all the hair on his belly fell out, and the skin on his lower abdomen is droopy (maybe he needs a little kitty truss). And he seems to be a little on the thin side. He's done surprisingly well as an indoor/outdoor...

Our old-cat Tiger has just been diagnosed with CRF. The vet recommends prescription low-protein, grain-supplemented cat food, but in Elizabeth Hodgkins' book "Your Cat", she recommends good-quality but low-phospate protein. What has been your experience? Thanks

Hey folks. Lost my Usenet account, and am reduced to Google.. hope you can help me out. I first saw this picture a few years ago, have seen it pop up in various spots, and it's pretty awesome. Cat takes a swipe at a snarling dog on a beach. Usually these types of spats wind up with someone...

Hey folks - I was active in the '90s as Brian Link. Since Usenet is approaching a wasteland, I wanted to ask if you have any ideas for other web forums that deal with cats. Having some cat problems atm, and could use some input. Thanks for any ideas. BLink

My 1 yr old cat is chewing everything.....plastic, wood, leather, electrical cords. He especially has a fondness for the shoelaces in my husband's shoes. He chewed the heck out of a wooden spoon that I had with utensils on the kitchen counter and now he tries to chew the plastic utensils. He...

My cat is having some difficulty getting in and out of the litter box. The ones I currently have are large with higher sides. Does anyone have any recommendations for a larger box but with lower sides? I think I read somewhere here about a dog litter box that is really low on one side for easy...

Please do me a favor and give all your furbabies a big hug. I just lost my baby of almost 17 years. I am heartbroken. They are never with us long enough..... So please give your babies a hug and remind them how much you love them. Sue Goodbye, ScooterCat....You were the best cat anyone could...

I took in a stray semi-feral cat over 2 months ago. She lived for 6 weeks in our basement separated from my other 2 male cats. The other 2 cats knew something was going on and could sense the new cat behind the door and occasionally heard her. When it was time to introduce the new cat to the...

I posted before that I took a stray cat in about a week ago (she has lived all of her life previously outside). Right now, we are keeping her in our finished basement in a cage that is 3'x6'x4'. Today we have let her out of the cage and given her free-reign of the basement (we'll keep her in...

I need some advice. I'm about to take in a stray cat that we found. She's about 9-10 months old and probably has lived most of her life so far outside. I've taken her to the vet and had her fixed, etc. For the past week or so we've kept her in a dog cage at my husband's store where she gets...

I'm thinking of getting another cat as a companion to me and my 2 year old male cat. What would be better, a female or a male? I have always been partial to male cats. I did have another male cat until recently and the two got along okay. Any thoughts? Sue

Anyone here have any experience with vaccinations given nasal? I just adopted an 8 month old kitten from a shelter and they told me he was given a nasal vaccination. I'm curious about the effectiveness of a nasal vaccine. Does anyone have any info on this? I'm taking the kitten to my own...

Menu Foods has recalled more pet foods, this time due to cross-contamination. The list is long and somewhat confusing. Please visit either itchmo.com or petsitusa.com/blog for details. S.

I have 2 male cats...one is almost 3, the other is about 8 months old. They both act like I don't feed them enough. They are constantly begging for food. I currently am feeding them each about 1/2 can of food (5 1/2 oz. can) and about 1/2 - 2/3 cup of dry a day, usually given in 2 meals,...

Please see www.itchmo.com for the latest recall. Appears this may just involve Canadian products but I am not sure. UPDATE: The toxin found in these foods is cyanuric acid - not melamine. This is the first recall attributed to cyanuric acid. Royal Canin has discovered a new contaminant in...

Here's the story. I have 2 cats...cat A is 3 years old. I've had him since he was a kitten. About 8 months ago, I adopted cat B who is now just over a year old. It took a little while for the 2 to get along, and while they aren't best friends, they do play together and get along okay. ...
