    Pet, Pet, Purr, Purr BITE again!

    My 5 1/2 month old kitten Myles is a biter. He bites down pretty hard to the point where I feel like he's breaking the skin. I've tried all the techniques posted on this site, say NO, give time outs, walk out of the room, don't move your hands and arms and remain still, etc..... nothing stops...

    Neutering questions????

    Is it normal for a male cat to still get sexually aroused after he's been neutered? I got my 5 1/2 month old kitten neutered last week and I noticed that he is still getting aroused.....not that I look but he sometimes sits on the couch cleaning himself and it's hard not to notice. Also I've...

    Biting!!

    My 5 month old kitten has been biting for the past few months. We have continuously given him time outs, sprayed him with the water bottle told him NO....but none of that has phased him. He has continued this behavior and now it is even worse.....he used to let you pick him up and pet him all...

    What causes rapid weight gain???

    About 8 months ago I moved out of my mom's apartment where I lived for several years with her and her cat Romeo. Since I've moved out he has gained ALOT of weight. I'm not sure how many pounds he's gained because I'm not sure what he weighed before I left, but I can tell just by looking at him...

    Our cats are driving us insane!

    Wow everything you described is exactly what my 4 month old orange tiger kitten does. I've thought about whether or not he'd behave better if he had a little brother or sister, but from the sounds of it I guess that doesn't really matter. I am going through the same types of behavior problems...

    Does your cat try to get in the shower with you?

    Myles sits on the edge of the tub every morning while I'm taking a shower. He puts his paw in to try to touch the running water and sometimes he slips and falls in...like this morning. He usually jumps out really fast but then always comes back for more.

    Help.....my kitten is out of control!

    He usually lets me hold him and pet him but if he's all hyped up he won't let me hold or pet him for too long before he starts to bite me. But when he feels like it he jumps up on my lap and lets me pet and kiss him. He is affectionate, but he is just extremely HYPER and its usually on his...

    Help.....my kitten is out of control!

    Yes I did get him very young, I was told he was older than he actually was and didn't find out his real age until I went to the vet. He has not been neutered yet but we plan to do that when he reaches 6months. I work during the day (and he has tons of toys to play with during that time) but I...

    Does your kitten sleep with you?

    Thank you for all of your responses it's greatly appreciated. I'm hoping that in time he will get used to not sleeping with me at night. I have had kittens before and I've always let them sleep with me....up until now when I've developed allergies and when he sleeps with me they act up. He is...

    Does your kitten sleep with you?

    I have a 4 month old kitten and he is very loving but also a very typical kitten. He is up all night running through our apartment and always thinks it's time to play when it's time to sleep. He also jumps on me and bites me while I'm trying to sleep. In order to get some rest I have not been...
