Low carb foods by
JEP[_2_]
One of my previous cats developed diabetes towards the end of his life,
and I'm sure all the carbs in his food contributed to it. Now that I have
a new cat (woo hoo!), I don't want to make the same mistake, and I've
been feeding him only Wellness grain-free wet food. No dry food at all.
I'm...

Hi! Question about Bengals.. by
Brian Link[_2_]
Well, I'm back on Usenet after several years. Sad to see it's mostly
been usurped by the web. Still some discussions going on in my old
groups, though.
We've got a 9-year old Bengal that developed inappropriate urination
problems a few years ago, and he's also pretty neurotic. We've figured
out...

Female cat seems weird? by
[email protected]
Hello cat lovers,
I brought my female cat into the house several weeks ago as she was
swollen a bunch. It looked like she was going to have kittens at any
time. Several weeks have passed and she has no kittens that I can
find. She still seems slightly swollen however. Now my two Tomcats...

MINNESOTA Rabies Vax Survey by
Kris L. Christine
MINNESOTA: 88.8% of veterinarians responding to a rabies survey from the Board of Veterinary Medicine indicated they give a 3 year rabies vaccine; yet 53.3% fail to give pet owners a corresponding 3 year rabies certificate (36.2% issue a 2 year certificate, 17.1% issue "other"). When asked if...

Cats as mousers: nature or nurture? by
Brian Link[_2_]
For the first time in the 12+ years we've lived here, we've got mice
coming indoors. We've got a 16 year-old moggie adopted from a farm cat
litter, and a 9 year-old F7 Bengal, both males.
They've slain two mice so far (we found the carcasses on the kitchen
floor), but we've seen a few more and...

Meghan the cat-lady? by
Brian Link[_2_]
I met a fascinating woman in this Usenet group years ago who kept a
ton of cats in her small apartment. She graciously adopted a stray
that couldn't integrate in our household that included a neurotic F7
Bengal. If she hadn't adopted him, I expect he'd have to have been
shifted out to the...

Tomato sauce with enough cheez. by
Bohgosity BumaskiL
You know enough cheez iz in your tomato sauce when your cat will eat
it. I use "Simply Food", and another brand would probably do. Among
the other oddball foods for a cat are mayonnaise and coconut milk.
Echo will eat popcorn, too, and that's probably not a good idea --
seems to me that cats get...

cats fight at feeding time by
Joseph O'Brien
We have three cats that live fairly peaceably in our 1200 square foot
apartment. There is one exception, though: when they get hungry, they
fight.
OK, maybe "fight" is too strong of a word. Very specifically, our
older female cat beats up on the two male cats when it's close to
feeding time. She...

Aerokat and Flixotide, for feline "asthma" by
Eddy[_2_]
Some of you were very kind with your views two months ago when Puss here
developed serious asthma attacks. Since then the vet has been
experimenting and the latest experiment was to give him a steroid
injection. It worked brilliantly: instantly stopping the attacks. But
then after five days they...

Those frayed wires...bitter apple by

A long time ago, my cat told me most of what she can

said them together one day. In most cases, while she iz
doing something, I...

cat toileting outside litter tray by
Thumper
Recentlly I had to re-home my male cat due to moving. I found a home for
him, but the owner said that he would hide away and only come out at night
to eat. Wasn't very affectionate, which is unusual for him . Would growl if
any one went near him and he had a very bad habit of toileting...

Beware of introducing a new cat to your old cat by
John Doe
Many years ago, I had a long time female house cat (that had been
taken from outside, as always). She was with me for about 10 years
before I let another cat inside. That did not work out. She hated
him. I know she was jealous. The situation was worse than I
realized. It caused her lots of...

Catproof Office Chair? by

I'm looking at replacing my main office chair for my home office and would

Just to be clear, I'm not looking for a chair that will _repel_ cats; I'm
perfectly fine with them sleeping on that chair. I just want a chair that
