    Am looking to bring in a second kitten

    My question is, I have an existing kitten that is 9 months old, ideally would bring in a new kitten while resident cat is still kitten. However there is lots happening in the house over the next few months. So was thinking to wait till September. Do you think waiting that long would make it more...

    Is peeing randomly a sign of stress and pain?

    Yes Thanks, we had the same conclusion a few weeks ago when we took her to the vet to discuss when we first noticed the blood in her urine but she said let’s try the antibiotics and see if it improves things. Well I don’t think it has, so will just schedule a time to take poor Lola in and let...

    I ask because the truth is that my 15yo resident cat is on her last leg. For 7 months she has been plagued by this horrible feline fibroid Scarcoma in her mouth that after three surgeries, most teeth removed Has come back with a vengeance. It is no longer just in her mouth but seems to have...

    Looking to adopt a new cat should it be a Boy or Girl?

    All cats have different personalities I suppose. In my case my older cat, Lola, has accepted her fate that we have this other cat in the house(Taffy) who is a kitten still. But she seems to feel uncomfortable with her , since she always wants to play. And pulls sunrise attacks all the time. Not...

    Looking to adopt a new cat should it be a Boy or Girl?

    A little of both to be honest. More so I think older cat is getting stressed. She has health issues as it is but find she is now hiding much of the day. Assume it’s so the kitten leaves her alone. Was hoping if she had a friend , the kitten would leave older cat alone. but also realize that...

    Looking to adopt a new cat should it be a Boy or Girl?

    Hello I have two female cats now, one very old at 15, and another still a kitten at 9 months. So the older cat really wants nothing to do with the kitten as all she wants to do is play, and old lady wants nothing to do with it. So we were thinking of getting another kitten. What would be easier...

    Kitten pees in other spots outside litter box

    Well I originally thought it was just Taffy the kitten. Now I have a different problem. I have two cats that are going outside their litter boxes. One is likely because she is a kitten. The Older cat, she used to be very reliable. But she has been going through a lot the past 6 months. Ew...

    Kitten pees in other spots outside litter box

    Thank you she is seven months old and has always done something like this. It happens about 1 or 2x per week generally. We do clean the litter every other day, and we have three litter boxes. Although I admit two are near each other in the basement as there was no nice place to put the third...

    Litter that does not spread

    Thank you. Didn’t think of that, but I would be worried about kitten getting used to going to bathroom in paper. Which would be a problem in our house as we have paper all over the place! Also I do think there is a brand of litter called “yesterday’s news” which is supposed to be made of...

    Is it Nature or Nurture that makes a cat cuddly?

    Lola our resident cat it very clearly a cat that is bonded with my family. While she is not a cuddler and does not like to be carried, she follows us around the house, always sits near us and even sleeps with my Son nestled up to him when he lays down on the sofa. But she doesn’t want to be...
