Thanks everyone.  Greatly appreciate your feedback  I am still searching and will look up the sources that were suggested.  Wish I had time to make my own as I have a pretty good idea what I want and found some nice ideas for DIY online.   Best I could probably do along those lines is buy the...

Hi I have a year and a half old Maine Coon boy Cat who is now almost 18 pounds and not done growing! I am looking for something that has large perches preferably 16 x 16 a relatively small foot print 2 ft by 2 ft would be nice (it is a second cat tree to go in a bedroom) and at least 5 and a...

What about used crystal litter?  I have been putting the used litter down gopher holes.    

anyone else?

With my older kitties I just try to get at them when they are napping and restrain as needed by holding them between my legs.  With our new kitten I don't know how it will go but he's due about now.......

We just got our maine coon kitten he is almost 4 months and he is so fun!  His paws are bigger then either of my adult cats.  

We are in the process of introducing new boy kitten (16 weeks) to our two older girls (13 and 14).  The kitten has his room and the older girls have their own room.  So far we let them out alternately in the rest of the main house and they don't seem to mind the smells of each other (or at least...

Good News!   Our little guy finally did make some poops!!!!  Hooray!  We are so proud of him!  

Thanks all.  Other than not pooping he seems just fine.  I was a little surprised the breeder suggested milk-but I only gave him a tiny bit.  Will try some olive oil tomorrow in hopes that could help.   He sure is a cute, active, fun little guy

The breeder also suggested a small amount of olive oil on his wet food.  The milk I used was 1 or 2% cow milk he only got a little bit.  We don't have any pumpkin on hand but could certainly buy some, though not till tomorrow. My hubby is calling to vet to schedule an appt for routine check up...

Hi all,  Just brought home our new kitten on the 1st and he hasn't pooped yet-today is the 3rd.  I called the breeder and she was not too concerned thought he probably just isn't used to his new home yet.  He is eating fine, playful, friendly all that good stuff- just hasn't pooped yet.  Breeder...

Greetings all.  We are going to get a new boy kitten in about a month.  We have two adult spayed females (mother-daughter) who are 12 and 13.  I am planning to keep the new kitten in a separate room for a week/as long as needed.  I thought a cage might be a good way for kitten to be safe when we...

My horses are fed a product called Platinum Performance which is highly touted for horses among horse folk.  This company makes a supplement for cats BUT interestingly a main ingredient is flax seed!  I'm surprised at this given that people are saying cats can't obtain omega 3 from flax.  I am...

Thanks all.  I am not sure the amount of fish oil that my two cats should get.   For myself I buy fish oil capsules from costco.  Each capsule has 1000 mg of fish oil (purporting to provide 300 mg of Omega 3 per capsule).  The people dose is 3 capsules per day.  I have no idea what the kitty...

I am also wondering if there is a good "does it all" type supplement for cats- vitamins, promotes healthy skin and coat, anti- inflammatory, joint support.
