??????????????Why are you 'so frustrated' ???? HE DOES NOT WANT TO GO OUTSIDE. I wouldn't worry about him darting outside and worrying that someone has to try and bring him in. Unless he stands near the door and appears ready to run out, don't be concerned (and from your description, I do not...

We have 3 cats, but only Tsuki (our grey female tabby), will carry around her 'babies'. We have 2 small chenille teddy bears that she will individually pick up, 'cry' and carry around-- waiting for me to call her. Then she'll either drop it on the floor near the bed, or come up with it and leave...

I believe it has something to do with his feeling he is the dominant cat. Out in the wild, animals will cover it up so others won't know where they are. If they are not in any fear of others, they will leave it to 'mark' their territory. We have 3 cats, all females-- and thankfully only one has...

In the past 25 years, we've had 2 groupings of cats. The first group consisted of 5 that lived to the ripe old ages of between 18-23 years. They all LOVED people food, any kind, type etc-- including onions, jars of infant Gerber baby food, veggies, chips and of course whipped cream, ice cream...

We have 3 females, and about 2 months ago our Tsuki was diagnosed with crystals (the other 2 were fine). The vet gave her medication and had us switch to s/d dry & canned for Tsuki. She's fine now, but we've decided to now feed all 3 with low acid food. We've got them all eating ProPlan...

I also wouldn't worry about it. Yes, a ktten need more food with special additives, but you can give her that in the morning & evening when you are around to make sure the others don't eat it all (as they may if unsupervised). Then leave out the dry as you usually do. Lucky you!, your adult...

While I don't have an answer, I do have a question with a similar problem. My 3 yr old female sometimes shows a faint pink colour in her urine, but not always. She is very active, eats & drinks normally (that is eats alot , remains the most affectionate of our 3 cats and aside from this 'pink...

We have 3 females, and recently Gabby has begun to do the same thing. She just sits there, as if preparing to spend some time relaxing. I'll go in with the scoop and she doesn't even flinch! I end up lifting up her paws and scraping around her. Sometimes, she'll yawn and dig her paw into the...

Tsuki, who is 5yrs does the same thing. Only she has 2 little stuffed chenille 'baby bears' that she carries into the room separately-- (yes she carries one, all the while crying, goes back & gets the other one--crying). I then have to call out to her, and pat the bed. She'll then leap up next...

Two years ago, I adopted Misha from Petsmart and had a similar problem. She was extremely skittish and for the first week or so, would hide (eveb- dug herself up inside the bottom of my couch once!). At one point, she also disappeared for a couple of days. We had left a bag out for GoodWill...

Kasey, who passed away last year (at the tender age of 23!! ) would stand on her hind legs and with her front paws turn door knobs to get into rooms we'd closed off. She also had a habit of 'scooping her food' into her paw and she'd then eat from her paws

While not a major 'trick', our cat Tsuki loves to jump over my lap when we're sitting watching tv on the couch. She'll be sitting on one side of me, look up & make a little 'churrup' and I'll then pat the other side of the couch, and she'll hop over and look up proud as can be. We'll do this 4...

Boy, did I think I was smart -- We recently got rid of our leather recliner, that my 3 'children' had decided was the purrrrrfect scatch post (even though they did use the 'real' scratch post placed right next to it). We bought a new chair in a the same fabric as our couch that they had never...

We have 3 females, and each has a separate & distinct personallity: Tsuki- the eldest at 5 hates to be picked up, but howls loudly if, when sitting next to me on the couch, I stop petting her. She's also the one who will carry her 'babies' (small chenille teddy bears) around, crying as she does...

I'd put them together under 'supervision' in a room. You can sit & watch them, or read, watch tv-- while keeping an eye on them for an hour or two. If they seem to be getting along without much fuss or hissing/swating etc, you can leave the room, checking back on them every once in awhile. You...
