Pardon if this is a stupid question (also pardon, but this is crossposted for the most coverage - I really need info on this), but..... How contagious is herpes in a cat's eye? What degree of contact would it take to pass this from one cat to another? Is this virus the same as or related to the...

Hello cat lovers, I brought my female cat into the house several weeks ago as she was swollen a bunch. It looked like she was going to have kittens at any time. Several weeks have passed and she has no kittens that I can find. She still seems slightly swollen however. Now my two Tomcats...

This is about the cat in the thread, 'fearful mother-to-be'. I'm beginning to wonder if the cat really is pregnant. She has been in a bedroom for 8 days now, and I still haven't seen her walking around; so I can't see whether her belly pokes out like a pregnant cat's or not. The 'owners' assured...

We have moved from free feeding to feeding strict portion sizes twice a day to our two overweight cats, and they are slowing losing weight (very slowly, like an ounce a week) but unfortunately our third cat, who has never been overweight and refuses to eat at set times during the day, has lost a...

I have a problem. Two outdoor cats, one that never really adjusted to a litterbox. I live in a duplex, and they like my neighbors garden. Is there something I could do to make a 4 ft by 5 ft plot of dirt attractive to these little guys? I was thinking of a couple of things, dunno how to go...

My cat doesn't have problems with jumping a couple of feet, but I've noticed that she has never jumped higher than a couple of feet. I often read about people who suffer with their cats jumping on counters, but I have never had that problem. She has been to the vet and the vet does not see any...

Hi everyone, I just got back from seeing the movie Elf. The movie was great, the story is really cute, and I would recommend the movie for kids and adults. However, there was a statement in the movie that stuck out like a sore thumb. When Will Farrell first comes in to his dad's office, the...

Declawed cat vs. Non-declawed cat. Should I worry? Let me first say, yes, I feel animals have feelings. Most people like to run their mouth about me worrying too much about my critters and I have decided I can look way beyond that, considering YOU cat people are nicer although much more...

I posted here before about Moe & Rudy having long coats and excessive shedding. My daughter got a book from library on cat breeds, she showed it to me and said that's what there are mom. I was very doubtful but did some research at the library & online. They clearly are part Norwegian Wood Cat's,...

3 years ago Walter (sig.other) trapped 3 kittens where he works. They had not been handled by humans until then. The vet said they were about 10 wks old. We had all of them for 3 weeks as they got their shots, worming, etc. We worked for hours to socialize them, and had good luck. The orange...

Thank you everyone for your words of sympathy and comfort. This is the first time I've lost an animal (except a childhood dog) and also had to make the decision to end a life. It almost seemed easier to me in the first 24 hours. Now I somtimes find myself second guessing. Living with...

We've just moved, well end of Nov and our cat is constantly fighting, no actually, she's bullying the cat next door. We thought it might have stopped by now but she continues to go round there and give the other cat a good clawing. I'm getting tho the stage where I don't want to let her out as...

Hi, The shelter I volunteer for has recently had an outbreak of URI, and since then has gotten very over-zealous (IMHO) about cleaning and trying to prevent it. My issue is that I hate chlorine bleach, and the fumes make me gag. Can't be too pleasant for the cats, either. We have two cleaning...

personally I wish you and sheelagh would go back to showing your butts did ya'll plan your entrance? or was that happenstance
