You don't honestly think I let my cat get at my birds and turtles do you? -raises brow- Geez, that paragraph was meant to be joking and light in nature. Lighten up. Seriously. I feel like I must step around on eggshells on this site sometimes. I really should just follow my instinct and not ever...

A what? o-o A finger snap on the nose?

I have my 4 year old American Shorthair named Sho. He's the reason I come on this site occasionally as he's my first cat. I also have my six or seven year old (I honestly lost count) pigeon who sees me as her mate. I raised her from when she was a lil chick who was unable to fly. She's black, so...

I've handled snakes before. I love how they feel--all smooth and warm. And I really want one. A corn snake would be great, but unfortunately, my mother's terrified of snakes. So I thought, you know, how about something with legs? So I showed her a picture of a tarantula I wanted, and she freaked...

My thoughts: find another vet. Your current vet, though easy to talk to, I don't think is, um, reliable. If you begin feeling uneasy about going to him for any reason, I suggest changing vets anyway.

I wouldn't be surprised if they had a kitty version of the Mayan Calendar. xD

Well, good to know my cat isn't possessed by the devil and isn't trying to kill me half the time. He's definitely not 11 months old though. He's four years old by now. Though...I only got him a little over a year ago. I have no idea how he was raised before he was dumped on me. I don't know his...

My cat Sho had a peeing problem too. He peed on our beds, on the rugs, mostly on soft things, but occasionally on the floor outside of our bathroom too. At first we thought it was the yearly UTI. He apparently has a record of getting UTI every fall. Strange cat. But it wasn't the UTI. It was...

The problem is when I 'hiss', push him away, and say no... and then walk away, he'll ambush me with ears pinned back and eyes wild. Well, they were pinned back to begin with. It's like he won't take no for an answer. Seriously. He just keeps coming at you. Is that really playing? =/ It seems a...

I can't tell anymore. Recently, for the past few weeks, Sho has taken to sleeping with me, on me, and near me. So I took this as a sign that he was starting to like me more. Honestly, I'm not sure if he's a people cat, but he does follow me around. As it stands right now, I am probably his...

^ Not sure if you read one of my previous posts, but I mentioned I cannot get another litter box. And I cannot afford getting both Wellness Dry and Canned. I'm a young college student. I can only afford so much. I'm still paying off his vet bills of $4,000. Emergency Vet visits and overnight...

I'm feeding him Fancy Feast for wet food and Wellness Core for dry food.

He's been healthy for the past 3-5 months. And no, he was never on prescription urinary food. The Cat Attract litter came in the mail the other day, and I immediately changed to the new litter. I didn't replace the box. I figure I'll do that if he continues to pee outside the box. Why do...

Alright, so my cat Sho had a blockage and UTI that was taken care of. He's been checked out as healthy by the vet. Problem is, while he had UTI, he like many other cats had associated the litter box with pain during that period. He'll often go to the bathroom in his litter box, but he also has a...

I unfortunately cannot play any instruments. I only sing. Sho reacts very negatively to my father singing. He'll hide and not come out until the noise is gone. However, he'll hole himself up in my room whenever I sing and fall right asleep regardless of whether I'm singing soft classical or...
