    Is this a Kitten or a Child?

    omg that is so adorable. i would fall over everytime that happens! hahaha. my little ragdoll cries A LOT ... to be picked up, to be fed, to be paid attention, etc. he did it more as a kitten though (he's 1 now). maybe he'll grow out of it? in the meantime, enjoy the cute kitten meowing !

    Want to Strangle the Cat

    it sounds like you really are tolerating the presence of the two cats because your wife loves them. i agree with the above poster -- if you even feel the urge to be cruel to one of them, it is better for all parties involved to give the cats a better place to live. since your hands are full with...

    Help! Limping 4-month old kitten

    Update --- Last night, Snowpea continued to have lethargy -- he barely moved from my bed at all. I brought him into the vet this morning and turns out, he had a fever of 105. The limping was gone. The vet thinks a combination of stress and probably exposure to other cats caused a respiratory...

    Help! Limping 4-month old kitten

    Hi all, Like most of you, I love my kittens as if they were my own children. My four-month-old ragdoll kitten, Snowpea, has always been super energetic. On Saturday he got neutered, and was doing okay until yesterday, when I noticed that he wasn't as energetic as usual. He still cuddled with me...

    Canned kitten food!

    That sounds like a good idea -- I have my two adults on Purina selects (the ONLY thing they will eat that's canned -- and I've tried everything from Merrick to Evangers to even Sheba and Meow Mix) so maybe I should keep the kitten on Nutro kitten and feed him adult purina?

    chicken soup - weight gain?

    Thanks everybody for all the help! I think I will stick with Nutro for now, despite the food recall mess (though their dry isn't included) because I'm paranoid about my fur-babies getting fat ... I work in the healthcare field and with all the health problems of obese children and adults I see...

    chicken soup - weight gain?

    hi everybody! i am thinking of switching my fur-babies from nutro dry (indoor complete care formula) to chicken soup just because i think the ingredients look better (plus with all the pet food recall scare) but i am worried that they will gain weight. right now they are of normal weight, a...

    Pate Style Food

    Just called the Merrick people - they said that both their dry and canned foods are made in their own facilities, and that they don't buy any food from Menu. So their products are not affected in any way by the recall ... (except by maybe getting more sales because of this mess! )

    Hello, I'm a little bit worried as my 1-year-old tabby Mochi just vomited up some icky green stuff! He sounded a little bit weird and then suddenly all this green stuff came out, with some chunks of food in it. He seemed a little weirded out, but then was back to normal in minutes -- he's...

    purring?

    I LOVE it when my cats sleep next to me -- they are just a year old now emma's purring bothered me a lot of first, cuz she likes to sleep right next to my head. eventually though i just got used to it and fell asleep. so give it a try - you might not fall asleep at first but you'll get used to...
