kitten falling by
ken
Last night our kitten fell about 20 feet from an upsairs landing. He
limped a bit, seemed to register pain when I touched his side, but
after a nap of 2 hours, seemed to be fine..He chased a laser dot for
about 10 minutes, ate and walked with no limp.
I picked him up and he didn't register the...

laser pointer batteries by

How long do most of you get out of the LR44 batteries on the laser
toys?
Mine are givng out after only 10 days.
Are there other laser pointer toys that use cheaper AA or AAA
batteries?

add and kitten by
ken
Is it possible that a kitten can have attention deficit disorder? Or is
there just a lot of individual variation?
we have 2 kittens from the same litter - one sat by the tv watching
"kitty safari" for 30 minutes...The other glanced at it and went on to
another activity..
She also reacts that way...

Cat hissing at her brother by

My cat hisses at her brother when she comes home from the vet.
If you have two carriers, take both to the vet at the same time. Even if
only one is being "worked on". They will both come back smelling...

scratching by
ken
Our cats have several scratching posts - one is adjacent to a chair
which the cats prefer to scratch -rather than the scratching post.
We have cardboard boxes all over the bedroom trying to protect the
dresser and other furniture becasue they reach up and scratch the
furniture.
Is there any...

Bumblebee brand Figaro tuna by
Ken & Sandy
Anyone else have cats that loved this?
I just discovered that Bumblebee has stopped production on the Figaro tuna
cat food. Two of my six cats won't touch any other canned food but this.
Now a new search starts for a tuna they will like just as much.

Taking pills by
Ken Anderson
I am pleased to report that I was able to give my cat two tape worm pills,
without it being a traumatic experience for either of us! Never had a cat,
until three years ago when I got this guy.

Really likes his scratches by
Ken Anderson
My cat does something odd that someone here might be able to explain.
When I scratch him on the back near his tail, he will in short order tilt his
head to one side, cock his chin up a bit, then start seemingly lapping the air
with his tongue.
Now, I'm cool with this so long as it's just a pure...

Ear mite remedy? by
Ken Knecht
What is the recommendation for an ear mite remedy I can get
locally - Wal-Mart, pet shop, whatever. Mail or on-line takes
forever and shipping is usually higher than what you order. I
suspect if I go to the vet she'll want to see the cat - which
means an unpleasant drive with the cat and getting...

Veternarian in Yuma AZ? by

Can anyone recommend a good, reasonably-priced veternarian in
Yuma AZ? I've become disenchanted with the one I'd been using for
twenty years - too-long waits for appointments, can't get in for
a month for what I feel are urgent problems, too high prices for
services, and addition of expensive...

Measuring blood pressure by
Ken Knecht
My vet has me medicating my cat for high blood pressure ($$$$$!).
Seriously, has anyone adapted a regular BP cuff for a cat? The
vet says if I can alter the cuff, I can measure under the base of
her tail. I've played with the cuff but don't see a practical way
to make it small enough. Maybe I need...

Friskie's Dental Diet? by

A friend told me that Friskie's Dental Diet made his cats sick. I've been
feeding a limited amount to my two cats for at least a year - maybe ten
pellets a day. Neither seems to be bothered and their teeth seem to be
clean. The few cases of throwing up seem to be hairball related.
What has been...

Changing litter pans by
Ken Knecht
One of my cats is bad about peeing off the edge of her litter
pan. Changing it often doesn't help. So I bought a much larger
pan, thinking at her old age she was having trouble manouvering
in the smaller pan.
Question: Is she likely to resent the change of pans and not use
it at all? It's a...

Steroids for cats? by

I took my cat to the vet today - excessive licking herself and
two dime-sized red spots/sores on her back. The vet gave her a

problems should clear up in a few days.
Anyone have experience with this treatment? This is a new vet to
