They are hazarous to your and your pet's health: http://www.netsyscentral.com/keith/livingair1.htm From the research I've done, the best air cleaner for the home is your standard HEPA cleaner with a replaceable filter. Megan

If Hodge is using the corner regularly, it's probably in part because you haven't eliminated the odor and he's returning to mark over it. Don't waste your money on Nature's Miracle. Use Anti-icky poo or Petzyme Cat Stain and Odor remover, soak the area making sure it gets down deep into the...

The other eye is starting to get cloudy-like a dull milky film. What meds can I order from a vet supply store to treat this eye so as to extend it's life? You really need to get this cat to a vet ASAP. It may mean the difference between him retaining his vision or going blind (and just because...

People that smoke around their cats and force them to inhale those toxic fumes are irresponsible, ignorant jerks that don't deserve the blessing of a feline companion: Are asthmatic cats allergic to humans?

Simon was astmatic and had extreme trouble breathing, the vet had to feed oxygen through a throat cut, his owner was a heavy smoker and you could smell the smoke on the cat. That's just heartbreaking. How anyone could do this to a cat and think it's ok is unfathomable. The truth is though,...

I'm watching it right now and in this episode the cats in the home really destroyed the couch. While I would have liked to see a cat tree incorporated into the room, I was still very happy with what Thom the designer did! He said some people get cats declawed to save the furniture, but then...

I've got a bag of WBCL to get rid of too. I switched because of the dust tracking all over the house too. I have 12 litterboxes with WBCL and have had none of these problems. I wash and change the litter in the boxes completely every 2-3 weeks. It has worked much better for me than the clay...

I just read an article online that is a perfect illustration of how cats potentially lose their homes because someone is suckered/manipulated by someone that they are "in love" with.
