I adopted Isaac last month from a shelter. He's 1 1/2, neutered, skinny & super sweet and friendly. For the first week or so that I had him he wasn't eating much and he was also battling an upper respiratory virus. Eventually he started eating more, especially when I cooked some ground turkey...

Scamper is about 4-5 years old. He's always been really good about using his litter box (unless it got too dirty) until last June. In June my family went on vacation and us girls were gone six weeks. During that time my brothers didn't clean his litter box once. During that time he started to...

My cat seems to have the classic symptoms of a hair ball. He vomits about 10 minutes after eating anything solid. Even a single piece of food will make him vomit. It makes him really miserable for about 10 or 15 minutes and then he's OK. Otherwise he's fine. He drinks, pees, poops, plays and...

10 lb bag of the dry Chicken & Rice formula... At the Vet: $38.00 At Petsmart: $25.99 The vet ALWAYS has to order, Petsmart has it in stock. Is the increased price the shipping charge or the vets outrageous markup? ...or some combination.

This is the snake my tiny tabby was afraid of when she saw it on the floor where my nephew had left it four years ago when I brought her home from the shelter. A few months later I got it out again and she began conquering it several times a day with great howling and crying and bringing it to me...

They are replacing the sewerage system outside my house with bigger, better cement pipes: http://www.possibleplaces.com/Construction/ They're using giant jackhammers to break up the old pipes. My whole house is shaking like a giant vibrator - they're rocking my world!!! ; -- Hugs, CatNipped

Hi all - I am so stressed and need people to keep my baby in their thoughts today. I recently moved into a new house last week and it backs onto a forest, with few neighbours. Anyway I haven't let my cat out because I wanted him to become familiar with the territory first on a leash. However at our...

Coworker of mine was talking to me about wanting to adopt a puppy or dog. I told her dogs were an awful lot of work and another co-worker told her how willful some dogs can be. Well I explained to her that cats weren't aloof, that they were very social creatures when it comes to their human...

Following up on the political discussions we've been having... For those of you who would like an eye-opening, thought-provoking look at American (and world) politics, I highly recommend Taylor Caldwell's "The Captains and the Kings". Wherever you see the name "Armagh" substitute the name...

A friend of mine in Australia just told me that the Feliway diffuser was (or might be?) taken off the market because it's affecting humans.. I can't seem to find anything on the 'net about this. Can anyone provide any info? I really wanted to have a couple diffusers installed in our new house...

I guess I'm lucky it lasted even 6 days! ; For Mother's Day I got a *very* nice leather desk chair for my office (what was DH thinking getting leather??!) - perfectly shaped and proportioned to fit my body like a glove and it feels so nice and soft against my skin. But it was only a matter of...

my 6month old kitten has just started pnating pretty hard after about 10minutes of playing and she's not playing very hard is there something i should be worried about. She also just got spaded last week on the 9th of May.

I adopted a tiny, cute 1.5 y.o. female from SPCA and have struggled with her for almost 3 years. On a dime, she will turn and bite or scratch me. I had a friend over for brunch the other day and she drew blood! Any suggestions? She is a very nervous cat. Tx

HI my cat has a white spot about the size of a dime that no fur grows on on his back. I thought it was ringworm but it's been there for a while and is not spreading and I have not developed any ringworm spots. Any ideas on what it may be based on the description?

My cat Otto, almost 7 years old, started acting weird Wednesday. On Thursday he went to the vet who diagnosed colitis. He said it would probably pass in a few days and it could have been brought on by stress. Otto barely ate breakfast on Wednesday (and threw up what he did eat) and did not eat...

Is there a list available of yard / garden plants that are poisonous or dangerous for cats and should be avoided? So far we only had grass. Some reorganization of the property has opened up a little space for plants and I want to be careful with respect to our kitty.
