In my experience, if they don't come around quickly, separate each of them from the others for taming sessions so that they can't have their fear confirmed by the others and they aren't distracted by the others. Then "force" yourself on each one by picking it up and holding it as long as you...
how about removing everything from the night stand?
my cat bangs the window shades against the window. if I open the shades, she jumps up onto the window sill and then dive bombs me.
my solution: I get up.
Regarding the little ones, my friend found a family of 3 feral kittens in her back yard last year. When we found out that the rescue groups wouldn't take ferals I decided that they would be tame no matter what. Even though they hissed and threatened, I picked up each one of them several times a...
thank you very much for your thorough response. The only bad thing on you list that I am guilty of is feeding too much seafood, especially tuna. In fact, they eat almost 100% seafood because when I try anything else, they boycott it. But I can get them to eat other canned food by making it the...
does the RX food have something in it that actually gets rid of the crystals? or is it just that it doesn't cause the crystals? Does the regular food cause crystals? If so, why? I guess what I'm saying is, what brings on the condition in the first place?
I tried the Royal Canin kibble and...
My cat was just diagnosed with crystals and the vet wants her on Royal Canin.
I have 3 other cats and that Royal Canin stuff is expensive. The "sick" cat is the only one who is allowed outside, for about 3 hours every a.m. so I can use that time period to feed the others non Royal Canin food...
Just out of curiosity, what do you think would happen if you removed D from G's presence for a few weeks. If G takes his cues from other cats and there's no running-and-hiding cats around, do you think he might take that next step?
My boyfriend's cat did the same thing at the same age when she was a kitten. It was almost like she was having such a good time she didn't want to leave. We moved the litter box to the end of the bed, on the floor. I don't know if that really helped. She only peed on his bed sporadically after...
try www.meoowzresq.com (I think that's the site. they are also on Facebook)
do not say that you have a feral, say abandoned pet, or something like that. if you can make a contribution, like say that you'll pay to spay Uhuru, that would probably help. They are located in the O.C. and hold...
Yes, I should add that the cat I described above is the sister of another cat of mine who wants to be held or in my lap at all times. And I have a cousin of theirs who has her own version of wild/tame, different from the brother and sister. You would not think that there would be so much variety...
Welcome to my life.
In my case the cat won't leave me alone as long as I am lying in bed, under the covers thank you very much, or sitting on the couch. Anywhere else and she bolts. There is no way that she will let me pick her up. During our petting sessions I can lift her with one hand but...
Well, maybe I'll keep her until the rainy season ends but my tame cat (I also have 3 ferals) has told me, in no uncertain terms, that the new cat has got to go.
Well, that's what she's doing. Sleeping.
What's sweet is when I come into the room she stretches her front paws out to me and rolls over on her back to show her belly.
You guys are hereby ordered not to talk me into keeping this cat.
