my cats (7 and 3 years old) have a tiered scratching post that they've always paid a lot of attention to. the carpet was shredded, so i replaced it with sisal rope, having read somewhere that sisal was a better surface for claw exercise anyway. both cats now won't touch the sisal, they lay on the...

i know there are black furred leopards, aka panthers. but, i saw a clip of apocalypto and there was a black furred jaguar. are there black furred jaguars? i know a jaguar is not a leopard. can it be black furred? or, was it just a black furred leopard in gibson's mooie?

We have a year old calico, and about a half year ago I got one of these "wavy" toys. It looks like an actual squirrel tail or raccon tail, tied to the end of the stick. The cat loved chasing it around. Actually, it really just loved 'catching' the thing, then trying to trot off someplace with it...

I asked in a previous post whether indeed we could save money by buying the largest size of Advantage or Frontline Plus (for the largest dogs) and then accurately measuring out a smaller dose for cats. The consensus was that this is indeed possible, and for example, a single "large-dog" dose of...

How cold of temperature can cats stand? I got a stay cat that comes in and stays in during the day but wants out at night even when it is cold out. Yes, we do have cat houses outside for him. (Actual he is our cat now. We got him his shots) I think he likes to roam at night Greg R

While stroking my cat earlier i noticed that he had a clump of longer hair sticking out of a lump of hard skin on the back of both of his forelegs and was wondering if it was normal, as i have never noticed it on a cat before. Will try and explain its location; If you look at his paws he has the...

I know they are potentially intimidating, I have tried once before. What I would like to know is whether anyone has had continued success using a radio controlled vehicle to amuse their cat?

In response to the post about the outrageous clip from the tv show "What Were You Thinking"...Not only did they air a clip about a cat who was thrown from a surfboard, but they also showed a situation where a group of idiots were rope-tying crabs (like a cowboy would do at a rodeo). One crab...

Hi Melissa, I understand how frustrating it can be to have a pet that pees in the wrong place. If a cat pees next to the litter box its usually because they don't like something about the litter , the box itself , access might be difficult or they dont feel safe to use it e.g. being ambushed by...
