I think my kitty Ruby is in heat (she's 10 months old). She is constantly making little noises and whenever you go near her she rolls over and over. We are unfortunately due to go on holiday next week so we wont be able to get her spayed until we get back in around 2 - 3 weeks. My question...

My kitty Ruby who is now 14 weeks old has suddenly just today started weeing elsewhere other than her litter tray. Its nothing major either just a few drops here and there. This is the first time she has done it as well. Any ideas?

Thanks for your advice, appreciate it. She has had a scratching post since we got her so thats not a problem and she does use it. I will try the exhausting her option and she does like her ball on a piece of string, so will have to run around with that.

Yeah I know she wants to play, but its so painful. I have tried telling her no when she does it and putting her on the floor again, we tried putting her in the kitchen last night and shutting the door for 5 minutes that stopped it for the evening, but then first thing in the morning she is all...

We have a new kitten, have had her 4 weeks now and she is 11 weeks old. She seems very happy but when she gets excited and hyper she launches herself at our legs, or if I am sitting at my desk or table she again launches herself at us with claws out, its extremely painful. Is there anything I...

My new kitty seems to be settling in well now and has taken to wet food, wont touch the dry stuff for some reason, but she seems to be going to the loo about 3 - 4 times a day, is that normal? Also how do you control the smell?

Thanks for all of that urbantigers. We have already looked at Micro Chipping her, my husband's sister works somewhere where they do it so we can get that for free. We are going to go with Direct Line pet insurance, they seem pretty good. Not too sure what pet insurance covers though so will...

Thanks for your post Epona. I have had Hills Science Diet recommended to me too. She was on the Royal Canin stuff and didn't like it, poor little thing was crying she was so hungry, thats when we changed her to Whiska Kitten Food, didn't realise either that I had to introduce the change...

Thanks all for your kind words, its so tough leaving her in the morning to go to work, I try to play with her and reassure her, normally leave her eating a little something then plan my exit. Hate hearing her crys. Trouts mom, do you have any recommendations for UK baby food to use??

I didn't realise she was too young to be away from her mum, I feel bad now. She seems to like the wet foods more than the dried stuff, but just doesn't seem to be eating very much.

Hiya my name is Lisa. We bought our new kitten last Friday, she is 8 weeks old and is named Ruby. Kitty owning is a new thing for us, i've not had a cat since i lived at home with my parents. Look forward to joining with lots of conversations. Lisa

Please help. We got a new kitten last Friday, she is 8 weeks old. The lady who sold her to us told us to use the same dried complete food that she has been using. We tried this for a couple of days and then found out that the poor little mite was starving and didnt like it. So i've gone...
