Thanks for all the thoughts and advice! Yes, after Lillie is spayed all of them will be. They do have 2 uncovered litterboxes in areas the dog can't reach (basement) and those are quite popular. They also have a covered one in the upstairs bathroom that the dog can't reach. The dog usually...

I mean, we could build them something in the garage but that seems cruel just to keep them locked in a garage by themselves all the time.

Yes, the other two cats are spayed. Norah (the mom of Lillie and the other female cat Luna) is definitely the dominant pet in the home and always has been. I'm not sure if there are issues persay, but the other cats do not get along with Murphy very well. That's part of the reason I have such a...

Thanks for the advice! I suppose we could try having them come in and out as they want but I'm not sure how the logistics of that would work. I wouldn't want a doggy door as there are a lot of neighborhood ferals and strays so I wouldn't want them coming in. I suppose I could just let them in...

Oh and I should add that having uncovered ones on the main floor is not an option as we have a dog and he will get into them and eat the feces or mess with the cats while they are using them.

Thank you for your thoughts! They have a variety of litter boxes - the ones on the main floor are covered (a very large round Budda one with steps, a smaller round budda one with no steps, and a regular XL square covered box). The one upstairs is covered as well, another XL square one, and the...

I'm not sure if you're purposely just trying to be sarcastic or whether you genuinely just didn't read the post but unless you actually have some helpful advice or opinions then please don't comment.

I know people's emotions and opinions can be heated when it comes to pets but please be kind about this. It is a very difficult decision that I'm facing. I have 4 cats total. Two of them are very well behaved and we don't have any issues with them. This post is about the other 2. The one cat...

Hey all- My cat Norah has been limping on her front left paw for the past few days. Sometimes she'll walk on it but sometimes she'll pull it up completely and walk on 3 legs. I've been keeping an eye on it the best I can but it's been a tough couple weeks and I just do not have the money for a...

Yes sorry, I thought I had said that - we haven't brought the male cat in yet and he just showed up a week ago so I don't think he is the issue. We've been having problems long before he showed up and maybe they've smelled him on my clothes this last week or so but I kind of doubt it since...

Hi Guys! I've really been enjoying being here and you've been helpful on all my other questions so I thought maybe you could help me on this too :) I have 3 female cats (Norah Riley - about to turn 5 on July 4th, and Lillie Rae & Luna Mae (a year and a half). None of them are spayed yet though...

GREAT news!! Murphy is in perfect health. He is roughly 2-3 years old according to the vet, NO fiv or leukemia. He has excellent teeth and the cheeks were indeed just jowls from testosterone. The only minor concern is tha he seemed itchy but had no mites and his eyes were a little red so he may...

Well today's the big day! 2:45 can't come fast enough. I'm so nervous for his test and check up :/

Kind of but it's harder to tell because he has longer fur so I'm feeling it more than seeing it. And it seems to be bigger on one side than the other. My husband says it doesn't feel that weird to him but I felt it. It doesn't hurt him at all when you push on them, rub it, pet it. In fact it...

Thanks for all the information! Truthfully, I just heard about FIV+ for the first time today so I am more worried about the Feline Leukemia and was referring to that vaccination. I guess there's nothing to do at this point but wait till the check up on Wednesday and hope for the best :/ Another...
