    Does your cat play tag?

    I play tag with my cat. It's just her and I. I have to be careful cause sometimes she either goes into full attack mode or gets scared. Tonight she got real scared, the hunched back thing, so I sat down and went back to watching tv. Hard to tell who's the "grownup" sometimes.

    How Do You Get Rid of Used Cat Litter?

    I use a variety of litter, mostly I scented clay, as well as the lighter versions. I put them in doggy do bags, then in an old cat littler bucket, which is in a bag and I put baking soda in the bucket to cut down on the smell. I clean out a couple times a day as I can't smell well so I do it a...

    To co-sleep or not to co-sleep with your kitten?

    My baby used to sleep at or on my feet but now when I sleep in the living room she sleeps up on the top where she doesn't get moved around as much. In the bed she sleeps like normal around my feet.

    Essential oil and cats??? need some info

    Sorry..I came on here searching for the same answer lol! Just my two cents tho, I know Jackson Galaxy uses oils to calm cats and I've even used a tea tree oil recipie on my cat and she was fine far as I know. I diluted it to like one drop of TTO to like a cup of water. It was to discourage...

    I swear my cat was doing the same thing last night. When I first got my cat I didn't know anything about cats and brought her to the vet several times and probably a couple times that I should have...it sounds like your a good mommy. Maybe some days she is just a bit more hungry like we all get...

    Wasting food... just part of being a cat slave?

    I looked this question up as I have the same problem here!   I'm disabled so money isn't like it used to be. I'm also at home more often so I can feed her smaller amounts, but I think I should space it out a bit farther, like feed her wet in the am, then later dry and then wet again. I have...

    Do you rotate your cats' food?

    I don't rotate that much, but I think its a good idea! She likes most Friskies pate canned, what I feed her most of the time, and is eating Iams dry food, and starting on Wellness dry. She used to like Iams wet food but doesn't seem to like it aymore. I give her a different Friskies canned food...

    Trying to bring in an outdoor cat

    Looks like you got a bunch of replies, which is good! I brought mine in slowly over a week or two period. It took us both a lot of adjusting, but really calmed her down, not to mention much less bird feathers haha...I started bringing her in before night time, as she had a door she could come...

    Trying new food for the cat questions

    Thanks all! I never thought of seeing how much I actually spend on the cat stuff, I'll have to check and compare prices, but I'm sure even if I can switch ocasionally its probably better than Friskies canned and some cheap or even expensive dry all the time haha! Lucky kitty is getting chicken...

    Question about harness training

    This is an old post but I'm thinking of trying to get her used to two collars, one around the neck that she has on currently(a breakaway even tho she is an inside cat now), and one around the waist like on a harness, and eventually connect them together to make a harness.

    Trying new food for the cat questions

    Oh yeah those big packs are nice, especially the giant ones from Costco lol! They are so heavy tho and Costoco is really out of the way on the bus, so I've been getting them by singles. I did think of getting the larger cans of food but wasn't sure if those were meant for larger amounts of cats...

    Trying new food for the cat questions

    Thanks! I do use food banks, but I don't know if they have much cat food, I think there is a place for helping people with pets nearby, I need to get a hold of them, I somehow always seem to have enough for the cat, tho I am cautious when it comes to people food. I think a month or so ago I just...

    Trying new food for the cat questions

    Thanks all! Wow I feel like an idiot, I totally forgot you can buy meat ground up haha! Maybe I can do some raw food ocasionally, she loves raw meat. When she had acess to the outside it was easier but now that shes inside for good, its hard to open any meat up without my shadow there to...
