I was just asking the same question of a friend the other day. I have two cats--males, 3 yrs old, litter mates--and they are as different as night and day. In color, too. One is almost pure white and the other is almost pure grey. The white one is totally independent and pretty much stays to...

It must be a cat thing. My two cats do the same thing. Lately they have been doing it while at their food dish. Hope all is well with the cats after all this bad food stuff.

Thank you, Emmylou. Sounds like good advice and I'm going to give it a try tomorrow morning. It will be a battle of wills and I'm very curious as to who will win. I know Pinky is trainable as he minds very well to other commands, such as "down" and "come here, Pinky," so perhaps there's hope...

I have to chuckle a bit at your reply. I've expected the cats to start getting active earlier as the daylight starts earlier, but here in North Dakota it is still pitch black at 5:30 a.m. But I guess I'm just going to have to accept it. What's strange, though, is the other cat will stay...

Thanks for your quick reply. I think I'll try the covers over the head trick. Problem is, once I'm awake, I can't seem to get back to sleep!!!

Good morning, cat people. I love both of my cats with a passion; however, one of them has the habit of waking me up in the mornings (too early, 5:30 a.m.) by sitting on the pillow as close as he can and licking on my face and sucking on my hair. I shoo him away but he slowly worms his way up...

Hello Everyone. I'm hoping all of you experienced cat owners out there can give me some advice. I currently have two neutered males about two years old. Yesterday I was offered the opportunity to adopt a six-month old kitten (sex not known at this point). Here's my question: What are the...

These forums are pretty neat. My first experience with them, so don't know all the ins and outs yet. Hope to post a pic of my two one of these days when I get smarter. Thanks for you info. I had a pretty good idea that with two of them, they would rely on each other for almost all of their...

I hope I'm doing this right--my first time replying to anyone. Thanks for the info about cats changing their favorite sleeping spots. I didn't know that. I thought perhaps they were trying to stay away from the AC, as I keep it pretty cool in the bedroom. Of course, they are still there...

Had some trouble getting started in this forum, but I think I've got it now. Let me introduce us. BIP stands for Barbara/Izzy/Pinky, which is usually how I end my e-mails, etc. Barbara, of course, is I. Izzy and Pinky are male barn cat littler mates that will be two years old in mid-October...
