Hi I haven't posted in here for years so sorry to intrude. I just wondered if any of your cats had had either an ultrasound to check out potential heart problems or an MRI after a seizure, and if so, how traumatic was it for the cat? It's a long story and I don't really want to go into all the...

Hi guys. Hoping to get some helpful info, as I usually do here. First, I am taking Jack to the vet, but in the meantime, I am posting here. Jack is my 6 year old, slightly overweight beauty. The other night, Saturday I believe it was, I felt what appears to be a lump. It is inbetween his right...

I will attempt a new thread, lets see how I can get flamed for this question.... We are a dried food family. We have a bowl of dried food (it is some urinary tract food recommended by the vet) out 24/7. They can eat at will. However, I am moving over to adding wet food. I separate the...

Why does she Put her little mouse toys in her Food & Water dishes ????????????

I feed my cats around 5:30am because that's usually when I get up to go to work. On Sunday I wake up around 5:45, wonder why the cats haven't woken me, and figure I'll put out the food. I stagger into the bathroom, put out the food, and notice that only Espy and Nipsy have shown up. Very weird....

I tried replying to your email and got a bounce notice. So, since I'm not saying anything confidential, if you don't mind, I'll just reply here.... Thanks chickie-dee! I appreciate the support. Yeah, we old-timers tend to forget that everyone here doesn't know the history and why a certain...

I just took in a stray cat . She was obviously a little up tight from living on the street. She is extremley scared of humans,and confined herself in the bedroom. I understood this and figured it woould take some time for her to warm up. I also have a kitten who i thought would help the new cat...

Hello all, Is there anything I can put on my power supply cord for my laptop that the cats hate the taste of? They are chewing on the cord. They've shorted out 2 so far, and I'm willing to bet the third one is about to go (by the looks of the cord). No, they are not getting electrocuted. ...

My wife seems to think we should get a friend for our cat CC who is a spayed female 1 1/2 years old. If so should we get a kitten ? Will we need a separate litter box & feeding bowls ? CC is a very good cat who does not scratch the furniture or anything else. Will getting her a friend change her...

I read we aren't supposed to feed them pop-top can wet food, because of hyperthyroidism. Oh well. So I will move them to some premium dry food. But IMO dry is better if made wet first. Here is one simple method to wet dry food. .... put some dry food into a zip style plastic bag, very little at...

Today his leg is stronger and he is putting more weight on it. He hurts, but I have some meds to ease the pain. No acupuncture for a couple of weeks so we can see how this progresses. The pain is mostly due to the fact that he is walking more on his left hip which is the arthritic hip - I was...

On Monday mornings, the grocery store nearest me tosses their week old Johnsonville products. Cats love them.

The cat show is going to be at Madison Square Garden this weekend. Once again I've failed to train Espy for the Agility competition. Too bad, I'm sure that he'd win. I always go with a few friends. I'm not into breeding cats but it's interesting to see the various kinds and how they judge the...

Mike Rowe, host and willing participant of Dirty Jobs just asked a "master groomer" what his opinions on declawing cats were, while they clipped a cat's claws. The groomer only said that cats who have been declawed are definitely meaner. "When those cats come in I never turn my back on...

We adopted a Maine Coon from a shelter about 3 years ago - he is nearly 6 years old now. He is the only cat and an inside cat. We have no children, so it is only my husband and myself. In April, I went out of town for one night. Buddy, the kitty, attacked my husband in bed that night - this was...

How much do kittens grow from 6 months to a year? Except for Maine Coons (who can keep growing for up to 5 years - although with Sammy it's mostly sideways growth ;) - how long do cats keep growing. I'm asking because Ozzy is now at 10 pounds. His bro-fur Archer is only 7.5. -- Hugs,
