Styptic Powder Ingested - OK or not? by
CatNipped[_2_]
I was clipping everyone's claws today and got too close to the quick on two
of Jessie's back toes. This is the first time this has ever happened.
Jessie didn't seem too upset, but *I* was! The clipper "kit" I had came
with a little bag of styptic powder to I used that even though there was...

Dry food addict. Refuses anything else by
Jane B
Now that I've read how much healthier canned food over dry, I've been trying to convert my cat. She is incredibly fussy. Only eats dry food. She does not over eat, so she is fed at will.
I have tried about 30 different brands and flavors of canned foods. The only kind she's will to touch are...

pig ears for cats? by
Elizabeth Blake
I was wondering if those smoked pig ears treats for dogs can be given to
cats. Isaac really wants to chew on stuff. Just before, as I was typing,
he leaned over the edge of the desk and began to gnaw on the arrow keys on
the keyboard. I just moved the pen/pencil cup out of reach to stop him...

Anybody have a Ragdoll kitty? by
Mary
Upon reflection, it occurred to me that my neighbor's new cat might be
a Ragdoll, because it goes limp when picked up and just sort of drapes
over you. I did a Google image search, and there she was!
Am I correct in recalling that Ragdolls have soft, thick fur, large
frames, gentle dispositions,...

trip that will take 7-8 hours, sometime this autumn. The girls have
separate carriers. The smaller kitty will be in the intermediate size
Kennel Cab and the bigger one will be in a large carrier of the same

protect persian rug, declaw not an option by
Elijah
Hiya.
Have a supremely annoying and occasionally affectionate 9-month old
kitten and an older and loving tuxedo cat. Was just given a
magnificent persian rug but it'd be a shame if the kitten tore it to
shreds and there's no way I'll declaw them. Is there any kind of
effective deterrant? I was...

Artificial Silence
My cat was diagnosed with CRF.
He is between 7-8. He has mildly elevated creatinine levels and
kidneys that are about 10% too small.
He has eaten dry Wellness Lite for most of his life, which as many
people know, is one of the few cat foods that doesn't have by products
in it and is made with...

Tragic Mistake by
Mary
Unbelievably, my friend took two eight-month-old rescue sister tabbies
in to a Central Florida vet to be spayed, and when she returned for
her babies they had declawed one of them. The vet called tonight and
told her he will do "whatever it takes" to make this up to her. All
she can do is...

Food for flat nosed cat? by
Karen M.
I was asked about this by a woman I know who adopted a flat-nosed
Himalayan (sp?). Is there a particular kind of bowl or food that is best
for such a cat? He has a harder time eating his food. She just got the
Royal Canin for Persians, but I don't know if that is for Persians due
to their flat...

My Farfou has been diagnosed with struvite crystals.
After 5 days at the vet he came back home. I am supposed to feed him
Hill's c/d prescription diet but he refused to touch it and it has

Cat Cremation Urns by
Margarita Salt
For the past couple of years I have been trying to find a nice, elegant
urn for Kami's cremated remains when she goes. What I have found is
either dull, cheesy, or too cutsie. There was one porcelain urn that I
liked, but it's $277. The first time I saw it, it was $165--maybe I
should have...

Cat women turn me off by

I just saw a little news blip about how women are
attracted to "cat guys" (guys who like/love cats and
have them as pets). I thought I'd drop in and comment.
First of all, I'm a guy who loves babies (most of 'em
anyway; I ain't too crazy about bratty, ugly ones), puppies...
and cute things in...

Cat licking patio by
The Mermaid
My cat (14) has started licking the patio - anyone know why he does this?
Salt content? It seems very strange.
Also, he just licks at his food and doesn't seem as interested as
he used to be - have tried several types of food now.
Do they do patio flavoured food???!!! ;o)

I was thinking of ways to keep it warm during the winter. You know, boxes
or whatever. I bought an electric blanket and it hasn't left the area since
that day. The weather hardly gets below freezing, so I'm hoping for a cold
night :) I think it will work at least down to 0°F. One night was about...
