In trying to cut out severe hair mats from my longhaired cat on Saturday, even though I thought I had safely inserted a comb under the mat, I ended up snipping out a chunk of his skin smaller than a dime. I'm pretty certain it was only the first layer (the hide), and it did not bleed much. He does...

Wow, what a day it has been...All the action kicked off @ 9.30am when the vet turned up for work. Both Paul & I were waiting for her because we were determined to sort out what was going to happen to poor old Lilly over the weekend as we were already aware that there would be no one there to care...

We have a beautiful yellow male cat. He was about a year old when he came here & tried for a month to join our family. We finally gave in & had him neutered & all his shots. His health was very bad when he first came here, but he is fat & happy now. The problem is that he wants to be a house cat &...

The Friday before I had force fed her with a cake decorator..But it really freaked her out, she looked terrible afterward and the next...

Hello All, In a previous post, I mentioned Dharma's challenge to poop in the litter box. She did well for the first 2 days she was home; now she is not pooping at all... For the past two days, nothing. I'm calling the vet this morning but I was hoping that one of you fine people might have some...

I'm just curious...how do you spoil your cat(s)?? It's fun to hear how others dote on their furry friends. For me, I put Hobbes on his back in my lap (which he loves) and pet his tummy while I'm kissing his ears. He literally "squeaks" (kind of a half-snore) with delight and will not get down...

Hi, I've just came across this website about a great new cat breed, the Toygers! I was amazed the first time a saw the pictures and I think you will be too. You can see them at: www.toygers.nl There are pictures in the photo section and lots of links to other Toyger websites.

Please, I just want information, not to ignite a religious argument between the wets and the drys. The vet told me Milo was getting a little chunky because his dry food (Purina Indoor) contained too little protein. Thus to get enough protein he ate too much of it, getting too many carbs and...

They will hop on the bed, purring. Then they will start moving their paws up and down. Not really scratching/sharpening but more gently. Years ago my mom had a cat that did this too but only on a pink blanket or my sister's pet stuffed pig. And she would suck on it too. It was kinda...

Hi, I have a Siamese kitten (6 months), who now can jump up on my dresser and dining table. My problem is this: at night, when I'm ready to go to sleep, he wakes up (from having slept through most of the the day), goes and does some stuff, then jumps up on my dresser. I wouldn't ordinarily...

We have two, nearly two years old, desexed, male, burmese cats. Their names are Trim (Blue) and Fidel (Lilac). They are litter-mates. They get on very well and are almost inseparable. For example, I have to take them to the vet together even though only one is sick because the other frets when...

Kitty's on a diet... how much weight per/ month is a safe amount to lose, iow... how slowly should she be losing? Thanks. Linda

Hi Everyone, I have a stray Momma that came to us at the very late stage of pregnancy. She had her kittens on the 20th. The first days she stayed with them almost all day only coming out to eat and use the litter box. Now she hardly stays with them at all. I am very worried because she had them in...
