    Neck scruff?

    There's something I'm curious about. I know that mother cats of all species will pick up their young by gently clamping their mouth onto the neck scruff. I was always under the impression that it was ok for humans to pick up a cat by the neck scruff, but I only recently read online that it's...

    small skin cut (worried!)

    Thanks for the letter opener idea. I'll have to see if the vet has Sunday hours, it's too late today, I need to get a few hours sleep before work. But she seems to be acting normally, only gets upset when I try to put ointment on. I feed her Nutro Natural Choice Complete Care, the weight...

    Six months and still won't get along.

    Hi everyone, it's my first time posting, and I apologize in advance for the length, but I believe in being detailed.
