I got cat #3 today, Valentina. She's a year old who was found as a pregnant stray. She is a love.
I have two boy cats already. I've never really done intros by the book, and it's worked out, but I think I might have to do it somewhat this time. She's very friendly and laid back, and doesn't mind...
I just wanted to update, almost a year later. I still have Rami, the cat I posted about, and I love him very much. I really appreciate everyone's replies and private messages at the time, it made me feel better. He's can still be a crotchety little crab, but he's MY crotchety little crab, lol...
Thank you everyone for the advice! I think I was a little...emotional last night, lol. I feel better about it today. I do think he gets overstimulated and is still settling in. He's still cuddly when it isn't his "run around like a maniac on speed" time of night. I'm just not used to a young...
I don't know that this should be a behavior thread per se, it's more my problem, I know. I got a cat about two weeks ago. He was very loving and sweet (about a year old). And he still can be. But he is also quick to be crotchety. He will randomly get irritated and growl and try to bite, even if...
So glad I posted here, thank you! The other day I noticed that he hated the sound of my boyfriend's aerosol deodorant and I wondered if it was because it sounded like hissing. So I tried hissing at him and it seemed to work but I totally forgot about it. Thanks for the reminder, I'll definitely...
I just adopted a cat Wednesday; he's about 1 year old and a total sweetheart. Very loving, affectionate, etc. His one bad habit is that he is constantly trying to lick and bite our fingers, no other area, only fingers. I almost wonder if he wasn't nursed long enough or something. It's not an...
My mom rescued a cat from the park a month or so ago(actually, she hit him with her car but she took him to the vet and he wasn't hurt...I'm not sure if you'd call that 'rescue', lol). He was so horribly skinny it was awful. I don't know how he was still alive. The vet said it was probably...
I'm sorry it took me so long to reply but thank you for the advice! I did decide to leave Tommy at my mom's house. I went back and forth, and it was difficult, but I know it's what's best for him. My mom is really happy with the arrangement too, because she's become really attached to him. I...
Hi everyone,
My cat (approx 4 years old) is FIV+. He's very healthy though (if a bit portly lately- we've been living at 'grandma's' house for a few months and she's a little too generous with the treats, lol).
However, he has serious anxiety. He was a pet that was dumped, then abused while...
My new kitty now refuses to eat Wellness, Blue Buffalo, and Avoderm. He likes Friskies wet and LOVES Fancy Feast gravy lovers.
So should I just give up with the healthy foods and feed him the junkier stuff? He eats TOTW dry, but it's important that I give him a little bit of wet twice a day...
Wow, thank you to everyone for the suggestions!!! I got a lot of good ideas
Now I think it's between Sergio and Nico (which I actually had suggested to my husband for Benji, and totally forgot about until this thread ).
I'm so bad at cat naming...Romeo didn't have a name for 3 weeks. My mom...
