When it's time to break out the canned food (she gets 1/2 can in the eve) if I'm not on time Meep lets me know it. She also harasses me while I'm dishing out the goods (all normal cat behavior). But as soon as I set her food down, she looks at it, looks at me, and walks off. Doesn't matter if...

My 3 1/2 year old, male neutered cat goes CRAZY for food. He starts to meow for his dinner at 3:30 so he has it by 4:00. He is medically fine, we had him at the vet and did not get an answer to his strange eating habits. We have to seperate him and our female 5 year old spayed cat, so that she has...

Hi All, On December 4th of 2004 I went to our local humane society and adopted a kitten. The next day I noticed that he (about 3-4 months old I was told) was sneezing a lot. I took the kitten back to the humane society where I was told that it was nothing to worry about if he was eating and...

Does anyone have experience with this condition? It's also called "Pillow Foot". We have a cat at the shelter with this condition and he had been fine. It's on two of his paws. Yesterday when the vet was in, he was examined because the volunteers the day before said he seemed lethargic. He was...

As you know, Mingy was just hospitalized because he had a lot of struvite crystals. Now that he is home, I am trying to get him to drink, but most of my usual tactics and even the diluted tuna water are failing. He did just lick the liquid off of can of Science Diet Savory Cuts (chicken), but...

I have a cat that stubbornly refuses to stay out of the living room window. I DO NOT want her in there, I do NOT care how much she likes seeing the outdoors. The blinds on that window are fragile, and you have to have them just so or else everyone walking by can see all in there. Just when I get...

Are there articles online that discuss this? http://www.catnutrition.org has many articles on this subject. Megan "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do

I have 7 all indoor cats. Simba is 14 Spooky is one of 3 that are 5. Both are neutered males. Spooky has taken to harrassing Simba almost all time time and even though I setup a high, safe place for Simba he will find it and get up there and whack him around.

A couple of weeks ago I reported birdsong on a slate bank covered in mosses, heathers and ferns, just outside my kitchen window here in a remote valley in West Wales at 7.30 at night (pitch black - sun setting at 5'ish). It has happened again tonight at the same time (7.30). (I switched off the...

I spilled some Comet on the table today, and Mico came around and started licking it! He got just a small bit. That won't cause major damage - would it?? Thanks in advance, - Ruby Tuesday

Mingy is missing a claw on his left hind paw, which is the leg I thought he was having trouble with. :-( This will grow back, right? I assume he lost it because he was clinging to something, but still this is not a pleasing discovery. Ouch!!!! -- Jean B.

I know this is a silly question but my cat is making these funny noises almost like she is coughing. I've heard one of my others do this occasionally & I've always thought she might have a hairball she was trying to bring up or just got some hair stuck in her throat. But now, the second cat has...

I clip my cat's claws once a month, but I realized this afternoon I last hadn't since early December. One of her claws has grown inward and is gently pressing into her paw pad. Unfortunately, when I get the clipper around even the tiniest portion at the end she go nuts, as though it's causing her...

Our female cat Tabs, is currently being treated for ringworm, including antibiotics and local shampooing. The patches she has aren't typical going by the pix I can find on the web, and what he vet says. I just wondered if anyone else has had a ringwormy cat with these symptoms. Initially, the...

Has anyone got any Fawn Point Siamese Cats in the UK that they can show under GCCF rules ?

Good News! Do you know how simple it is to go to Heaven after this life has ended? Some people believe that belonging to a local church, temple, mosque or synagogue will get them to Heaven.

I will never buy a "bred" cat. I like the kittens that cats have in my barn every year.

I guess this would be a take off of the How Much Do You Feed Your Cat. Our guy, a Maine Coon, is becoming a bottomless pit since his troubles that I have posted here about. Originally a 20# cat about 6 months ago, he has been down to about 12#'s. Since his almond removal a short while back, he...
