Hi I have had my lovely tom cat from a kitten and he is now 3 years old. I have never owned a tom cat before and he is just so adoreable, but there is a behaviour that he does religiously every single morning and wondered why he does it. He sleeps in the house but late at night he always...

We recently got a third kitty, a middle-aged one from my sister. She moved to England recently, and can't take the cat with her. She takes 5mg of Methimazole twice daily, or at least is supposed to. The old cats are chasing and fighting her constantly, so she won't let anybody get near her, and...

Hi there, This question is about the same cat as before, in the "Cat in heat question" thread. This cat has kittens that are now 9 weeks old, they are at my house awaiting their spay appts. Beetle is at the shelter also waiting for her spay appt, and is apparently in heat. Beetle has been...

For those that are interested, Icarus is once again back at the vet for a urinary tract blockage and is giving them a lot of headaches. They said that if they get only a few feet near him he starts hissing and spitting. I was on the phone with the doctor today and could hear Icarus in the...

Has anyone seen a show on TV called Pet Keeping? I've caught it a few Sat mornings and the guy has some really good tips. Come to find out its a production of Martha Stewart. Regardless, it's a neat show. Next week the host is going to have some "sure fire" tips to keep your cat from scratching...

My adult cat has been breathing loudly out of her nose and she smells funny. I don't know how else to describe it. She also is losing weight. I brought home a kitten about 4 months ago and for the most part they get along these days. I think the weight loss is related to the kitten being a fat...

I have 3 cats. One (or more) has recently taken to urinating outside the litter box. I think I know which one it is but would like to be sure. Does anyone know of anything that can be given to a cat that will color its urine? This way I could give it to the cat in question and if the next...

Hi all, I am new here and wanted to get some feedback on whether other cats are like the one I adopted from the humane society. All we knew was that he was over 1 year old and was a stray. He is part persian, but without the scrunched up face, he is orange and white, very fluffy with pretty orange...

Yes, silly. Though, the behavior on one is a bit worrisome. Two of our girls, right? First subject - about a year old. She's monogamous. That is to say, she will only allow one male cat to attempt to mate with her. And it just so happens that the cat she allows to couple with her...

I'm wondering if anyone out there has figured out any good ways to track down missing cats? Here's my situation. My mother adopted two cats a few weeks ago. We think they are brothers although we don't know for sure. Their names are Fred and Barney. They are a year and a half old, male,...

I need advise about what is the best to do with my FIV cat who has been diagnosed with breast cancer last week. She ist about 4 1/2 or 5yo. She was found in Queens/NY 2 1/2 years ago, one week before giving birth. I was fostering her and her two kittens and it turned out she is FIV+. I discoverd...

Henry's really taken to indoor life. Given our recent harsh spell of Minnesota winter, I figure we've already saved his life. He's the typical long-hair mutt with strong Maine Coon/Norway Cat indications - the same coloring, ear tufts, huge mane and footpad tufts. Since he's been adopted, he's...

My husband and I recently acquired two purebred 3 month old kittens that turned out to be FeLV+ on ELISA, tested within 48 hours of bringing them home, with the older kitten testing IFA+ a few days after that. (I haven't had the younger kitten IFA tested yet.) The breeder, who had given us a...

Good god man - you seem like the quintessential Usenet Kook/paraplegic/schizophrenic/mom's basement dweller. Some of us don't have time to follow the gazillions of posts in anger you've submitted (God forbid.. we're just looking up how to help cats) - so as a favor to recent browsers, could you...

Why is it that cats think playing hide and go seek is fun or funny? Everyone is looking for you, calling your name, thinking you're hurt and you don't bother to reply or come out. Then you just suddenly show up like nothing happened. Very funny. Or how about waiting to go up the stairs until a...

Please help! We adopted Roscoe at the pound 3 months ago. He is now 5 months old. He is a very active and healthy little guy, was neutered promptly when we adopted him, has a good appetite and gets lots of play from us and our dog (whom we adopted at the same time). At first I figured the biting...

Meghan e.mailed the cattery and was told that Conan has found a home .. I hope this will be confirmed and that maybe we can see some photos of him. All the best Conan. -- Alison http://catinfolinks.mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/ http://doginfolinks.mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/
