Are moggies randomly marked or does it depend on their parents markings? My last cat was white all over with beautiful perfectly symmetrical black markings on his face - he looked like Zorro in a mask. I always said he was wearing the wrong tail as his tail did not really match him at all - it...

Hi Everyone: I have a friend who is a cat lover but travels too often to own a pet. There are many neighborhood cats near her home and she was wondering if those cat window seats can be installed *outside* her office window on the ground floor. From what I've read about the cat window seats,...

Peanut, my cat, learned to beat the invisible fence that I installed in my yard. He was using it for about 2 years with no incident. Peanut did not seem to care that he couldn't get out. Then I turned down the "power" a bit, so he would have a slightly bigger area to enjoy. Well, the new...

good day, I've search via google and the cat faq but could not find an answer to this question. Can a cat get ringworm more than once? tia

I am passing on some info from several rescue groups that might be of interest. I have not tried it yet. If you try it, please report back your experiences. .. I am trying something new here that you might be interested in trying. A cat foster mom told me that she uses ground corn chicken...

What is brands are best cat food, vs. worst? I've skimmed through the Ann Martin book "Food Pets Die For"...so I'm at something of a loss what to do! What are top three wet foods...and what brands should I totally avoid. I had a cat in the 70's that I just fed the generic...

She's down to 16 lbs, that's two pounds from about four months ago. She has been getting canned only now, not even any dry treats. Since she is 10 now, almost 11, I really want to help her get the weight off so she can live another 10 years. Thanks to all who advised.

For those of you that might still care... Bandit went back today for her follow-up bloodwork. Everything came out normal, red blood cell count was back up, and she'd even gained some weight. I could tell she's been feeling good from the amount of running around and playing she's been doing (a lot...

One of our four furries is having problems with cat fleas. He reacts badly to such things as Frontline and programme and sprays. We comb him daily with an "electric" comb and a "flea"comb and he also wears a 12 month type flea collar but the damned little fleas still make a bee line for him. Our...

Has anyone here owned a good Bengal or ... even a Bengal mix? I've met some Bengals at Jean Mills cattery in Covina (CA) and was taken by the handsome markings and their highly active nature. But I'd like to hear from those who have lived with one (or more) about their personalities ......

We have a 3 year old cat Khamun and were thinking of getting a kitten to keep him company after his brother Toot ran away a few months ago after my fiancee and they moved into my house. He doesn't seem to miss him, and is very affectionate and seems happy. He is in good health. We're both out...

Hi. We have a young black cat about 7 months old. Any time you place her on a soft material like a blanket made of wool, she seems to very slowly be pushing her front paws into the material. We cannot tell if she is stretching or exercising or just feeling the material. Has anyone else seen this or...

Any suggestions about how to judge whether a cat sitter is good or not? I've interviewed a few, they seem nice. One does it after work, the other is full time, plus she has references (but how can you trust those). They both made cooing noises with cat and seem fine - I just saw baby-sitters...

Saw an interesting tidbit in Cat Fancy while at the vets today that mentioned the success of "stampidine" in easing viral load and even completely getting rid of viral load in FIV cats. Anyone hear more about this?

1. Owning an interesting breed of cat doesn’t make you interesting. 2. If they were called "Krapinski Cats", would anybody brag that they have one? 3. Who needs a cat that knocks over precious knick-knacks? 4. If they need to be constantly entertained, get them iPods. 5. Since they're so good...

I recently got my cat spayed. She is a Russian blue and about a year and a half old. Anyways she has always liked to bite but now she bites me all the time, especially me feet. Can cats become more agressive after being fixed? -- Message posted via http://www.catkb.com

ok hello, I have a 4-7 year old Tortoiseshell, spayed, female cat named Bella. She is very loving and friendly with just about anyone. She suffers from a heart murmur and is getting extra taurine for it but all else in her life is healthy and very happy. My question is this, do cats mark things by...

I put my nose down there, and it stinks...what should I do?
