I finally got my cats a real scratching post -- Bear (adult) and his sisters has always loved cardboard flat on the ground, so it's never been an issue, but my kitten (Maxx) is a vertical scratching. I'd rather accommodate his needs then try to convince him to do it my way :) That being said,...

I adopted a lovely short haired gray female stray cat with large yellow eyes, about 6 mo ago from a local shelter. (She was in a cage on Death Row for 5 weeks). Vet checked her out...she/s probably 3-4 yrs old, had been spayed and declawed previously....other than needing a teeth/gum cleaning and...

Hi everybody ... couldn't find an answer to this on the 'net so I thought I'd try you guys. Hope you don't mind a stranger just barging in here with a question! Here's my situation -- my kitty was sick a little while ago (bad reaction to some flea foam) so I took him to a vet in town; she was...

or hearing loss she's 14 and the yowler and throid we think she's deaf or has hearing loss vet checked told its hard to tell, Sam didn't respond to anything she did: clapping hands, snapping fingers but i was standing behind called her name and Sam turned & looked at me

Hi everybody, Megan sent me a post where someone asked how Jack was doing, and I was responding when our power went out (not related to the BIG ONE, just our local ancient transformers). Now I'm back to retry and can't find the thread. Anyway, Jack and his clone Dmitri are both happy as clams!...

I was having trouble with my feral female throwing litter out of the box. There are plastic grass doormats under the area that catch litter, but the amount was ridiculous. I tried restricting the edges of the box, but she found a way over that. So I went to the local megastore and bought a covered...

I have an unfortunate problem. My 11 y/o cat seems to have developed a food allergy. He's been scratching his face and head for over eight months. He was on Hill's Prescription x/d dry food for five years for CaOx stones. (He has never, ever, like canned food and has always been picky about food....

My six kittens born on August 7 will be spayed/neutered the week of February 7. Six months is the time I have had kittens neutered in the past, and six months is the earliest that my vet wants to do it. My questions are, what is the earliest age at which cats can mate, and do cats in the same...

What are you thoughts on homeopathic remedies for cats? I know almost nothing about them but someone I met recently says that she's used them on her cats for years. One thing she mentioned is Rescue Remedy. Thanks. Jean

I assume I'm gonna hve to take these two to the vet about this... but better to ask for as much help as possible first! My friend and I (and some others) lived together, and got two sister kittens. We did get them at different times (my friend was more eager than I, and couldn't wait) but they got...

Here's a newspaper article with a happy ending (because the cat was found) but with a lot of trauma (because it details the story of a cat that escaped from its carrier as it was being placed on a plane for transport). The cat was finally found, identified through an implanted microchip, and...

Jenny and Shirley were elephants at the same circus when Jenny was a calf, and Shirley was in her twenty's. The two lived one winter together, but then were separated twenty-two years ago. It's very rare for elephants to display this kind of emotion in captivity, and it's probably the first...

I know our 3 year old cat does this to us, especially in the morning, sort of a wake up call! Can be a bit startling, but I can think of worse ways to be woken up. Becky
