HELP! Adverse reaction, steroid injection-- by

My 9 yo Oriental Shorthair has had problems with intermittent vomitting.
Last week he threw up 2 nights in a row (about 10 times each night) so a vet
gave an injection of Depo-Medrol.
About 3 days later he started scratching himself like crazy, and the next
day it got worse, with aggressive...

Cats that heal by

I have heard several stories and seen first hand - cats that know when you
are hurting or sick or sad and act in ways to 'heal' you.
Last week I had my gall bladder out and a few days later, I came home and my
3 month old kitten, Stella got in my lap and immediately went to each of the

Cats and human pregnancy by

I am about three months pregnant and my two cats will not leave my side.
Especially the younger of the two, Stella. She will curl up on my belly and

Could she hear or feel the placenta noise or feel the warmth?
It just seems that she has been wanting to cuddle more and can't get...

Kitty nightmares. by
.oO rach Oo.
To preface this, I've said here before that when we adopted Delilah and
Stella, we almost weren't allowed to take them both because the woman at the
shelter said the older one would kill the younger.
They proved her wrong almost immediately when Delilah (the older) did her
bit in litter training...

Finally on the sofa by

We adopted Delilah and Stella in November 2003... Delilah was about 6 months
and had been a runaway and Stella was about 3 months and was found behind a
grocery store.
From the beginning, it was obvious Stella had not been given the chance to
be litter trained. Delilah helped train her. Delilah...

This is just a funny little story and will hopefully get a few other funny

We feed Delilah and Stella wet food for their meals each day and a bowl of

Cats and sneezes by

Ok I know that there is likely no answer to this but I will ask anyway as it
is bothering the hell out of me.
When my husband sneezes, Stella will meow in a curt manner as if to say shut
up or you're annoying me. She will do this from rooms away if she hears him.
When I sneeze, it doesn't faze...

Cat in heat? by

My fiancé and I recently adopted two kittens... one aged 8 weeks (approx)

was the only reason we could think of as to her behaviour of sticking...

Cat peeing in sink by

I posted earlier about Stella, my 8 month old kitty scratching in the sink
and squatting. She only does this when I go to the bathroom, not my fiancé.
Well, last night, after all the trying (she looks like she's trying to pee)
she finally did. Just a little, but pee nonetheless. Happened again...

When my fiancé was away a few weeks ago, I came home from work one day to

Looking at the ceiling by

Delilah and Stella often stop what they're doing and look up at the ceiling
.... almost as if the laser pointer light is there or some such
distraction... but nothing. Does anyone else's cats do this and any idea
why?

"pawing" after eating by

Another question...
Each time Delilah (7 m old) finishes eating, she paws her placemat like she
is covering litter. Having seen this, the little one - Stella, has started
doing the same.
Could this be because they were strays and covered up their mice or whatever
it was they ate? They both eat...

How to tell Breed? by

We have two kittens that we adopted at a shelter a month and a half ago.
They told us they were both brown tabby cats.
This afternoon, I took a peek on Orchid's site and the pictures of the

Thank You by

Just a quick word of thanks to all in the group that gave advice on the spay
surgery. Delilah came through with flying colours and is now home resting.
Stella seemed to know that her older sister was not herself and has been
very gentle with her.
Just as a sidenote, we went for the laser surgery...
