If I'm eating chicken wings Cleo will sit and watch me, never taking her eyes off the meat. I once found her with BBQ sauce all over her nose from a venture into the garbage. Cassius is a yogurt feind. I cannot eat one without him trying to lick the lid or clean the container when I am...

I found that a lot of cat issues are resolved with time. Many people worry because things are wrong early on. Remember it could cat a cat years to get over tramutic events, and some never do, just like humans. My male cat who is 1 year old will still not approach any males, but he is all over...

One sign is overeffection. Cats that have been abused will sometimes be over friendly to everyone. Its their way of doing good all the time so they won't get abused again. Our stray is friendly to any stranger to the point where she will sleep in their lap the first time she meets them. Jason

"6 weeks". Thats all you had to say. It can take up to 1 year for a pet to accept a new animal into the home. Our Kitten fights the two adult females all the time. I would keep them apart when you are not in the house and promote group events when you are home (feed them treats together...

My 3 cats will be sleeping on our bed and for no reason at all the Male Kittin will approach and start licking on of the female's foreheads. The after a few seconds he will walk away and go back to sleep.

How long have you had her? Jason

Please drop me a personal PM and we can talk more about this. I had the same thing happen on 2 occasions. When we found Cleo (an abandoned cat) and took her in she made life living hell for Ameratto. Cleo would attack her on site, sleep in front of her food dish so Ameratto couldn't feed, and...

Oh he removed it in about 5 mins tops. It was $1 at the dollar store and we got a photo out of it

Cassius is the one in the xmas sweater (a failed experiment). Ameratto is the White with the grey patch, and Cleo is the Calico who's head you can see. The last photo is a bad one of me with Cleo in my arms. I hope you enjoy

Interesting notes on the experiment. I think the declawing is cruel as well. When we found her she had cuts all over her face from fighting. When we left her alone for the first time with Ameratto we came home to find Ameratto huddling under the table with a huge bite mark on her back and...

I wonder to what extent they do remember? I mean all experience from 5 years ago lost unless it was a tramutic event that would cause an conditioned response do they forget everything? I'm sure your right about the sensation peice as we have hardwood floors and no carpet in the condo. Jason

I originally found Cleo abandoned, huddling in a fire door on the tenth story of our apt building. I asked everyone on the floor if they were missing a cat. I even put up photos in the building and called all the shelters. Cleo was already fixed and declawed on all four paws which means...

My wife and I have three cats, two of them are hoarders and the 3rd quickly learned to be one as well. When we adopted Cassius we already had two full grown females who both inhaled their food. If Cassius begin to graze he would quickly find his food eaten by Cleo. Cassius has his dish in our...

Greetings all My wife and I have 3 cats. Two 5 year old females, 1 medium haired white and grey (Amaretto), and 1 Calico (Cleo). We also have a 1 year old male short haired Kitten (Cassius). We live in a condo and are sometimes called crazy cat people for having so many, but we love them all...
