cat jumping away from food by wasted[_2_]
Hi A cat that I have looked after for about 15 years (he moved in, aged about 1-2 years, but allowed me to stay!!) has always been a very scary/wary creature, not comfortable having humans, including me, in the same room. But he has always allowed me to serve him food in his bowl. Of late he has...

Any large houseplants that cats don't like? by Jane[_2_]
I have three cats and lots of plants. I'm careful not to have any that are poisonous but they don't return the favor by not eating any. Luckily they don't seem to be interested in my orchids but I had a very large plant that has been completely ruined by my jumping, chomping cat. Of course...

Tough decision for my cat by Brian[_2_]
I'm facing a decision that every pet owner hopes they never have to have. My cat has cancer in one of it's ears and the vet thinks that if the cancer on his lower part of his ear is cut out then there is a change that parts of the cancer will continue in another part of it's ear. So it's a choice...

My cat had a large abcess drained, and the vet fitted the Elizabethan collar to stop him getting at the wound. If I remove the collar, he resists violently when I put it back on.

Great carriers for small pets by MaryL
I just bought two of these IRIS carriers for Holly and Duffy. I already have soft-sided carriers, but it is torture for both them and me to make use of those carriers. Holly basically grows 8 legs when I try to get her into one of them, and Duffy grows 16! The carriers often collapse during...
