The snail bait I just bought lists a warning not to use when pets are around as they may eat it. Will cats eat this? If so, is it dangerous to them? thx

For the past couple weeks my 4 year old male cat has spent most of his time pacing up and down the hallway, going from one room to another, while meowing most of the time.

Hi: I just got two kittens: from same litter, 10 weeks old, both girls, they are so cute. Lately I found some problem: they fight in front of me. Is that a problem? Thanks,

It's been pretty much business as usual around my house, until I took in my last foster cat. Mina was turned in at my vet with the request 'euthanize as we are moving out of state'. Mina is two years old, so the vet called me to ask whether I could take her and put her up for adoption. They...

I'm just having a little argument with my wife about toxoplasmosis. She insists pregnant women should not clean a cat litter box because of toxoplasmosis (note: this is just an academic debate, she is not pregnant). I think that if the cats are house cats and are not allowed out of the house, then...

I have two cats. They are brother and sister and are now 8 months old. Three days ago, I found fleas on them. I don't know how they got them as they are indoor cats. I imagine my wife or I could have brought one or more in and they found there way to the cats. I bought a Hartz product called...
