    I need help and in a hurry! (This is a bit long.)

    Thanks everyone! I think I'll try sealing up the bottom of the box spring and then spraying the underside of my couch with some repellent (I'll check Petsmart) and see what happens. He only pays attention to the couch when I'm on it and I think he's only interested in the box spring now...

    I need help and in a hurry! (This is a bit long.)

    I honestly wouldn't even mind the box spring thing if he didn't crawl around in there while I was trying to sleep... and if I wasn't so allergic to him. LOL This poor kitty can't get a break. Maybe I ought to try the repellent on the underside of my couch and just forfeit my bed to Finnegan.

    I need help and in a hurry! (This is a bit long.)

    I've posted about my Finnegan before. He was keeping me awake all night by attacking my bed frame and pouncing on me throughout the night. That problem, luckily, seems to have been resolved. At least it was. I made it a habit to spend more time in the evening with Finnegan: playing, watching...

    Do they make diapers for kitties?

    You know those little diaper things they make for dogs for when they're in heat? Does anyone know if they make something similar for cats? A friend of mine has a very old kitty who is starting to tinkle outside of his box now and then. She's afraid it may get worse as time goes on. I'm...

    Any suggestions on getting a cat to sleep??

    That looks SO fun!! How does it work exactly? Does it take batteries? Is it noisy?

    I screwed up...

    I got my second cat as a playmate for the first. My older cat wasn't thrilled at ALL in the beginning. I would get so upset and worry that I did the wrong thing, too. But now my kitties get along great! They play together and cuddle up together. There are still times that the little one...

    Fat cat...litter box problems....

    Hmm... this is a tough one. Maybe she needs a hair cut? You said her hair is long and that the litter (and other things) get stuck? Maybe she doesn't like the feeling, so she avoids the litter? (I'm grasping at straws now.)

    Fat cat...litter box problems....

    Do you know how often she is changing the litter? Is it clean enough for the cat's liking? Also, is the cat an only cat? Is there a possibility that another cat is intimidating her while she's trying to use the litter, making her hurry or go in other places? Hmm..

    Any suggestions on getting a cat to sleep??

    What is this panic mouse interactive toy? Where can I get one? My Finnegan is a terror all night long. I usually have to resort to putting him in his own room (which I hate). I've been able to leave him out for two nights now, but when I wake up in the morning I find things EVERYWHERE. He's...

    Fat cat...litter box problems....

    Do you know what size litterbox your aunt has? A larger box might help. Also, I haven't had a girl kitty, but I know that my boys often pee in one spot and then end up "poo"-ing in another spot. If the box isn't big enough, she may just end up with her bottom outside of it. Has your aunt...

    head buntting

    My Oliver does this. He'll ram his head into me and then his whole fat body plops slams into me sideways. I think it's hilarious. Sometimes he'll smash his face into my foot (when I'm standing) and almost do a somersault when he tries to follow it up with his bottom.

    Hi there. I'm a newbie.

    Awe, thanks.

    Hi I am new.

    Welcome! I'm relatively new myself, but I like it here. I think you will too. Do you think your parents will get you the kitty? Do you have one picked out?

    Inspired by "Bedtime is Bedtime"... I NEED HELP!

    Maybe Finnegan and Skeet can be friends. Sigh. I wish they would just learn English already. Then I could sit Finnegan down (and you could sit Skeet down) and say, "Listen here, little man. Mom needs to sleep or she's going to be grumpy and resent you for a good twenty minutes in the morning...

    When is the Earliest Your Vet Spay/Neuters?

    My vet fixed Finnegan when he was 6 months old, but she wouldn't do it before then.
