Update: definitely made freya some chicken and rice and put her and our other cat back on their regular food. Freya has been eating the regular food, but just kind of picking at the chicken and rice. She hasn't puked and has started going to the bathroom regularly again so I think it was just an...

I'm definitely making that for them tomorrow as soon as my classes let out and I can get to the store. I do have some chicken and rice applaws food I mixed in with their tuna and green bean concoction I made last night and gave them some again on its own this afternoon. Someone ate almost all of...

She ate a little bit last night. I put it away and gave them some this morning and again around 5 pm. I've been studying for my test practically all day and can see their food bowl perfectly and she hasn't touched it much. :( but she has been moving around more today and there's been no puking...

Hey all! My three year old cat has been puking up mucus once or twice a week for the past two weeks. Today she puked twice and the first time, she puked up a hairball with a yellow/orange liquid and then puked up yellow/orange liquid again about two hours later. I thought she might be puking up...

Definitely try to narrow down the cause of the hissing. You're definitely on the right track of being aware that she hisses at you when you enter or leave and only if you're standing. Ask yourself if there is a sound she doesn't like, if you're picking up new scents while out of the room, if...

Oh my goodness too cute!! My oldest cat Freya sleeps in those kinds of positions all the time. When cats do this, it means they deeply trust you! :) Not many cats will sleep with their stomachs exposed because that's an area they protect the most. But when they do show you their belly (and...

You don't really have to continue giving her treats after you've corrected the problem. :) but if you can some how turn that negative experience into a positive one, it will definitely help. Bend down when she is hissing and give her your palm to sniff, make sure you keep your fingers and wrist...

Follow Up! Took Freya to the vet today and after some disastrous events in which my poor baby peed everywhere, they checked her out and said she is perfectly healthy. :) the vet thinks she might not feel as if the litter box is her territory so she suggested getting another one to put in my...

Oh no! We've only changed our litter brands once and that was about six or seven months ago? I am taking Freya to the vet tomorrow just to get everything checked out and make sure she's ok. Im really hoping its nothing health related! But yes, when we don't do the big cleans, we just scoop and...

Oooh no, I haven't thought of that. Obviously we keep some old litter underneath the new litter unless we do a big clean with it. Oh! I forgot to add, we do sprinkle baking powder into the box then mix it in with the litter when we change it because... my girls are stinky. Would that cause an...

That's about the gist of it! My oldest cat, Freya (who will be three this summer) has been going to the bathroom outside of the litter box every time we change the litter. This has been happening on and off for two months now and I'm not very sure why. She has no problem going into the...

I'm sorry to hear about your boyfriend, but I understand. It took a lot of persuading my mom to allow another kitten in the home, but she realized it was for the best for our oldest cast, as she was starting to get a little listless and sleeping a lot more than usual. To be honest, I was really...

First of all, I greatly approve of the name Gandalf. That's so awesome that you named your kitty that, I actually got excited, lol! You can probably guess from my name, but I'm a HUGE LotR fan. You're very awesome. 8] Anyhow! Enough of my fangirling. When we got our second kitty, Mimi, we...

I've never used soft paws personally, but my close friends (who I got both my kitties from haha) have used them multiple times on their cats as well as their dog. They say it's a really great alternative to declawing and that it REALLY helps lessen scratch marks on the furniture and such...

Hello, hello! Yesterday, I discovered a red bump on my kitty's cheeks really close to her whiskers. The only reason I noticed is because there's a tiny bald patch surrounding the bump from where she's been itching. The bump is about the size of the head of a pin and the only problems I've seen...
