I've noticed that the fur around my little guy's throat under and adjacent to his collar has totally rubbed off. It's normal but matted on the rest of his head and around collar. His collar isn't too tight - I can put a few fingers below it which is what I thought was recommended. I have never...

I would suggest looking into these products for your laundry and carpets - ADMS Anti-Allergen Spray is safe for carpets, rugs etc and locks in the dander so it doesn't affect you. I spray it on my rugs every few weeks/month and it's amazing. Then I use Allergen Laundry Detergent for...

I have the best little snuggle bug (Miss Joan Jett) who also happens to be a voracious eater. She is turning one this month. As a kitten, she had a food sensitivity/allergy and always would over eat which resulted in diarrhea/loose stools and throw up. With some trial and error with my vet...

I have a grazer and a piggy as well. My piggy is a voracious eater and will shove her brother out of the way to get his food. Because my vet ruled out anything medical-related to her appetite, she asked me to get her on a diet. I bought the SureFeed microchip pet feeder for the grazer so he...

These are very helpful suggestions! I didn't think about keeping the food out for just limited amounts of time. That will be something I think I'll try to transition them to. I was doing scheduled feedings but just leaving the food out. They both had checkups today at the vet. Good news is that...

I have a 1-year old, Mr. Johnny Cash. He has been free fed with kibble (2 different food bowls in different rooms in the morning) and then a tablespoon or so of soft food in the evenings. He was always very regulated in his eating and often had some kibble left over the next day even though I...

Hi everyone! Thought I'd give a quick update on Mr. Johnny Cash and Miss Joan Jett. We had a breakthrough on Day 8 where Mr. JC started sniffing and grooming Miss JJ. Every day following that came a bit more positive interactions and fewer times where he'd attack her and hold her neck down...

Thanks, everyone. I bought a baby gate to see if that would work to allow Miss Joan Jett to be in a managed space so I can keep my eyes on her. I had to laugh because she hopped right over it like no big deal... so much for that plan. I appreciate the advice about not keeping her cordoned off...

I have a question about introducing my new kitten to my one-year old cat, Mr. Johnny Cash. He is the man of the house but has seemed very lonely when I'm not around. I followed the advice of others to give the new 3-month old, Joan Jett, a way to ease into the household. I put her in a...

On a similar behavior - I have a six month old kitten, Mr. Johnny Cash, and he does the same thing where he will bite at my arm or hand and then wrap his body around my arm and start kicking with his hind legs. I feel like he does this when he wants attention and to play. What's hard is that he...

Thanks, TabbyTom! My little baby is 6.5 months old. He's always been a playful kitten so he bites everything - it actually doesn't seem to be any different than his usual self! I just got nervous by finding the teeth all at once - all on the carpet in different spots. Hard to believe he's...

My little guy is Mr. Johnny Cash. When I was trying to think of a name, my mom suggested Cashmere because he was so soft and I started thinking about Cashmere, Cash then landed on Johnny Cash because he's a little tuxedo, i.e., the man in black. The first time I took him to the vet and when I...
