It's been nearly a year since I posted about Miewjhur, the problems I was having with her, and felt utterly driven off by what I felt were unjust and overly harsh commentary. Some how I felt I needed to return and post an update on her status. Miewjhur is, according to veterinarians (both those...

I guess it has shown me a lot that people who have not seen my cat, were not present at our vet trip and whom I seriously doubt have veterinary training themselves decide that a cat must have serious health issues and not just an attitude. Owning cats does not make you an expert. It merely makes...

Update Time So after keeping a distance and pretty much ignoring her since her last fit Sunday morning we had an appointment with the vet today at three. The vet gave her a very thorough check save for taking the temperature. The trip there had mellowed her out but she returned to hissing and...

Before her behavior issues, Miew was great on the road and would often ride either on my lap or on the passenger seat. My other two freak out but I attribute that to never being in a vehicle on a regular basis when they were younger. We've got a lot of elevation changes where I am so it can make...

ChristinaCat I have done just what you spoke of. When I speak to her I speak calmly, with a mild even tone, telling her that misbehavior will not be tolerated. I tend to speak to my cats (dogs, fish, and birds) as though they were simply little humans. I believe tone of voice is just as...

Otto, I will be equally as blunt. I don't need to be berated or spoken to as if I am a horrible person for being at my wits end with a beloved furry-child. I am doing everything I can. Do not talk down to me as if I don't give a damn about my pet. Thank you very much. If you cannot add anything...

If I wasn't the only one she was doing this to I'd be a little less worried. I have two house-mates and while they've both seen a few of these episodes, she's never done this with either of them. When given the chance she doesn't interact with them as much though. She waits outside the kitchen...

I'm having a major problem with one of my cats, my youngest, and I would love any help I can get. Miewjhur (female colorpoint) is roughly nine months old and I've had her since she was somewhere around six weeks (insanely early, I know). It took a while for both of my older cats - one eight...

Hi there! I've never been much for talking about myself so I'll just say hi.. and talk about my cats. Heh. I have three of them and all were shelter rescues. Tempest and Squall were found the same day in November of 2002 (best way to spend birthday money ever!) and Miewjhur was found July of...
