    Cat afraid of new cat tree/condo

    Thank you for all of the great replies and suggestions. I've tried placing and hanging toys on it. But I haven't tried catnip. That might help. I know I have to give her time. Hopefully eventually she will get to where she will want to climb on it. Thanks again for all replies. It's greatly...

    Cat afraid of new cat tree/condo

    How to know why a cat doesn't like the food given?

     My cat eats a third to maybe half a can when I feed her. She will "snack" on most of the remainder throughout the next few hours or so. Whatever is left after that I simply throw away, wash her dish, and it's ready for her next feeding time.

    Is Friskies a good cat wet food brand?
