He loves sitting in my lap, I'll put my pants in there, lol.  He's my ex for mainly that reason. He'd always say that his old cat wouldn't do thing like Simba did. Maybe because Simba was only a kitten at the time. Of course he's gonna do "bad" things! You gotta teach him not to, not locking...

I'll try that. He used to chill in the carrier. I'd open the door and he'd just walk right in and sit down.  He actually likes the vet! They give him tons of attention. And they always fawn over how affectionate and beautiful he is. 

I have an almost 3 year old cat who won't go in his carrier anymore. I know exactly why but would like sone advise on helping him be ok with it again. When I first got him, he went in the carrier fine. Wasn't a fan of car rides, but he had no issues with the carrier itself. My ex, while we were...

I got him a few new toys (basically replacements for ones he broke but I never got around to replacing cause he has plenty of other toys) and have been playing more interactively. Usually he'll play on his own but stop when I try to join in but so far he hasn't done that. :) Thank you for...

My 10 month old became very skittish what seems like overnight. Starting yesterday, he would jump at the smallest noise. I put my hands in my lap which made a slap noise and he jumped. I accidentally kicked a cardboard box and he jumped. My boyfriend threw his coat into the hamper across the...

Thank you. ^_^ 

I'm Ember, and I took in a kitten 4 months ago. His name is Simba and he was 6 months when I found him. No tag, no microchip, underweight and had burn marks on his paws. So I took him to the vet, got him microchipped and he's my little baby. I've only had dogs before, and all the shelters I...

So he is insecure and that's why he stays by my side so much?

I got my cat Simba when he was about 6 months old. He was a stray - no tag, no microchip, had burn marks on his paws and was underweight. Since taking him in he's become very attached to me. If I'm sitting in a room he is sleeping in, then go to another room, within five minutes he'll wake up...
