    newest cat love bites hard. how do i get him to stop doing that?

    well is there something I can do that will signify to him that biting is bad? Like a clicker or water mist? I've read in the past that yelling ow can sometimes get them to stop doing it. I didn't have to remember to say 'ow' because it hurt a lot.

    newest cat love bites hard. how do i get him to stop doing that?

    oh i looked at the bite more closely. I think he may have scraped my foot with his overbite because there are no puncture wounds.

    newest cat love bites hard. how do i get him to stop doing that?

    I adopted a new cat a few weeks ago. He was a stray coming from a foster home and before that the streets. He is very sweet and gentle and very happy to be in a home. He 'love bites' though and I mean hard. He drew blood the last time (not a lot) and it really hurt. He can be kind of skiddish...

    adopting a third cat. how do i handle multi-cat introductions?

    I currently have two cats and am adopting another to get the kitty population back up to three. Last time I introduced new cat to the others one at a time and worked out well.  I was wondering if I should use this technique again or if New cat should meet Old cats all at once? And yes I know...

    cat suddenly blind. need tips on how to help her adjust with litter box

    i got a box with lower sides. the original box i had was very tall for Odessa.

    thats one of the first things they looked at. Her BP is good. her blood work looked good. And while I appreciate the links and info, you didn't answer my post about caring for a blind cat and fixing the litter box issue.

    cat suddenly blind. need tips on how to help her adjust with litter box

    My cat Odessa went blind a few days ago. They're figuring it out. I mostly brought her back in to vet because she seem to be losing a lot of weight. The first night was really hard. She kept bumping into things and walking through our TV stand. She seems to get disorientated easy and walks...
