Meep, spayed female, 12 years old, cystitis. Has attacks when fed dry, even the veterinary urinary kind. So, of course, I feed her wet. Well, I try to. She won't eat even the flavors she seems to like, consistently. The last time I took her to the vet, the vet confirmed she's a little...

Hello, * Our cat occasionally eats litter (clean litter, as he is not normally using it) and I have also seen him eating ashes from the fireplace. For the rest, he looks good, and eats normally, but I am worried about the "additives". Do they contain some nutrient that is missing from his diet? Is...

Hi, I have an unused HP Pavilion with the fallowing specs: # Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+ (2.1GHz, 2000MT/s System Bus) # Memory: 2048MB PC2-5300 DDR2 SDRAM memory (2x1GB) (expandable to 8 GB (4 x 2 GB) (64-bit OS)/ 4 GB (4 x 1 GB) (32-bit OS)) # Hard Drive:320GB 7200RPM SATA 3G (3.0 Gb/sec)...

I have a heck of a time trying to apply Laxa-Stat on my cats' noses, and thought about putting a little in their wet food. However, the box says not to add it to their food, but doesn't say why. What's the difference--on the nose or in the food? Any info would be appreciated. TIA! Sue

Hi- I adopted 2 beautiful brothers from the animal shelter on Sept 29. The shelter told us that they were 2 yrs old and that they were originally brought in sometime in Feb 05. Then (not sure when), someone adopted them, only to return them to the shelter in early Sept. After a check-up, our vet...

Hi Guys, Thanks for your comments on the parrots & cats scenario. I decided to get the birds, and thought I should provide a wee update. First of all, Tango and Tootsie have been getting supervised garden visits over the past two months, and they do not really like the crows and seagulls - if...

Soo, from the onset, when you first bring a pet home... suppose that pet raises up on you, what do you do

Anyone here have personal experience living with a feral cat turned indoor-only cat, long-term? I'm just wondering how the progress went over time. Whether maybe it takes years or longer. How slow is the transition? Do they ever fully recover? By "feral cat" I mean whatever house cat born in the...

I can't believe I'm even considering this. There is a cat (Jackie) at the local pet shop. She was one of 29 cats that lived with a rescuer but he got too sick to take care of them. So, at age 12 or 13, she is now in a cage at the pet shop with five or six other cats. She is one very scrawny cat...

Sir Lancelot decided it is more fun to bat his chunks of food across the floor than it is to eat them.... Now he does have lots of toys to play with and 3 other cats. They sometimes will play with him and sometimes they still don't want anything to do with him... I think they are afraid of his...

I'm gathering the ingredients to make my own cat food and if someone here is doing this I have a few questions. No, not recipes, I have those. Like do you feed the same amount as you did the previous canned and dry foods? (My cat is on a diet and I give her 1/4 cup of food in each of three...

The humans. So I hear! Have you ever spent more on cat food than your own? Please, don't be afraid to tell the truth here. How many times have I gone in the grocer and went straight for the cat food? Plenty. but I've never spent more money on cat food than I have for my own food.

I think this cat really hates be trapped and to be in a shelter. Bad Idea to pet this kitty at the moment. Meet "Burger", the Cat from Hell. http://www.jumpingpixels.com/hellcat.html

I have a 5 year old B & W tabby that has been having problems with throwing up several times a week. It's as if it is bulimic. She is a house cat and never goes outside. She was spayed at 1 year old or thereabouts with no problems. Otherwise she exhibits good health. It is not loosing any...

My cats have a new Drinkwell fountain, intended to encourage them to drink more water. Neither one has gone near it in 3 days. Does anyone have any ideas about how to get them interested?

my kitten got bitten on the back and has two pus filled wounds covered by hair. Now one has already started leaking, foul smelling. Any specific antibiotic i should get from the vet. am not taking for a office visit. want to self medicate. steven moo

I'm no newcomer to cat ownership (being owned by a cat, that is) and have only spent two years of my life without a one. Recently we took in an abandoned 4 week old female kitten and like every other kitten I've raised, I lavished Five with love, affection, attention, lots of lap time...you...
