    2nd cat?

    ff When I brought home another cat, my big fat kitty Rein (who was about 6 years at the time) hated it and hated me. It really took about 2 years before she would even cuddle up with me anymore! Now we have 3 cats (Poor Rein), but I think that she's just used to it now. I think that the catch is...

    new cat vs. old--ignoring mom

    That's great news that you are bonding with your kitty again. I remeber when I brought Tigger home from the shelter...My older cat Rein wouldn't have anything to do with either of us. It actually took her about a year before she would come and sit on my lap again. I think what's really helped...

    Doesn't cover his business

    I use scoop away for multi cats too. I've tried different variations of litter and Rein is a very picky cat. Once I had to use the wood chips because the youngest had stiches in her belly and she refused to use the litter box. I think that it might just be one of those quirky things that she has...

    Does your cat snore?

    My 9 year old kitty Rein doesn't really snore, but she does snort when you pet her. We call her our little piggy!!

    Excessive Meowing

    It's so funny because when I got my youngest cat from the shelter I picked her from the bunch because she was the quietest. But sure enough after the papers were signed and we were in the car, she started chatting away, and she hasn't stopped for the last 3 years!!!

    Doesn't cover his business

    It's funny, because we have a 9 year old female spayed cat and she just started this behavior recently. She likes to scratch the floor all around the litter box after she goes, but most certainly does not cover it up!

    My cat is half dog!!!

    For Christmas this year we got a petmate freshflow and the cats love it. At first I was a little worried because you think that it would make a bit of noise or something....but it's quieter than a mouse. Ever since we got it the cats have seemed not to interested in sink water or water from a...

    My cat is half dog!!!

    Your situation sounds very much like ours. Our youngest cat Tigger, behaves in the same manner as some of the dogs that I have had as a child. She loves to play fetch, chews on tennis balls, and also enjoys waking me up in the middle of the night with lots of licks. She has also become very...

    Over-stimulated and Biting

    My youngest is like that too. She will meow and whine even after she has chewed a few hole in my arm. The one thing that I found is that when she doesn't want me to pet her anymore, what she wants is to play. One thing that I do when she sits with me is take one of her favorite toys, (right now...

    Family

    I have to post this question here because there are so many years of experience on this website. My husband and I are planning on trying to start our own family next year. The one thing that I am concerned about are the 3 cats that we have. I have heard that cats become very jealous around...

    Bad Toilet bahavior

    We have the same problem with our oldest cat, believe it or not, and finally my husband got one of those rubbermaid containers that are a little bit wider than the average litter box and a little bit higher, so the cats actually jump a little to get it. It eliminated our pooping half in and half...

    how long for another?!

    Don't wait too long though....when I brought my second cat home my 7 year old female from the SPCA didn't have anything to do with me for almost a year. No sitting with me, sleeping with me, no talking to me...after a year and a bit she FINALLY got over it!
