If you want to keep your cat off the stove altogether, try putting some orange peels around the edge of it or even just below the knob area. My kitten won't go where I have put orange peels since she seems to hate the smell of oranges. Hope this helps.

Lots of bakers out there it seems. So cute though. I count myself lucky that ChloÃ169 only headbutts me in the middle of the night... so far.

Yeah, different vets have learned different techniques, though the side spay seems more common in the UK. Terese, you can definitely enquire which method the vet will be using but both methods are equally effective and I would just let the vet do what he/she is most experienced with. Good...

I would highly recommend that you take her to the vet to get checked out. Usually there is an inner set of stitches which are dissolvable and an outer set that need to be taken out by the vet. It sounds like the outer stitches might have torn. There is a risk of infection and the vet will...

I "third" it!

Making biscuits refers to the kneading motion cats make with their front paws which looks sort of like someone kneading dough. Kittens originally do this to find and prepare a nipple to suckle on mommy cat. Some cats don't outgrow this action and it can be a sign that they are content. Carol...

If the firm "No" and loud "ouch" don't work, you can try giving her a short timeout in her carrier for 5-15 mins. It will make her understand that this is not socially accepted behaviour and when you let her out she'll probably be more loving than before. If she's doing this at night then it...

OMG! These Bengals are absolutely beautiful.

Ikea also has some very reasonably priced tubing for wires. They also have a bag that can hang on the back of your desk for hiding and keeping safe all those computer wires.

Our Chloe would get her jaw caught in her collar too. Strangely enough, when we put a few dangles on her collar (rabies tag, name tag...etc.) it weighed it down enough that she no longer got herself entangled in it. Perhaps you could try that. It did take Chloe a while to get used to having the...

I free feed my Siberian kitten Eukanuba Chicken and Rice for kittens. Twice a day I supplement with a little wet food of brands Nutro Natural, Nutro Max or Wellness. ChloÃ169 seems to really love her food and her fur is just so cottony soft!

There are a couple of different ways that spays can be done from what I've read. It sounds like your cat got the "Left Lateral Flank Spay". I wouldn't worry about it being any less reliable than a spay done through the stomach area. I've heard that it's actually more efficient and easier for the...

Thank you so much everyone. It really helps to know that this type of hernia isn't too serious and that I'm not alone in dealing with it. I'll probably have it done at the time of her spaying at about 4-5 months. Hopefully it will be a simple procedure, won't be too uncomfortable for Chloe and...

Hi Everyone, This is my first post here after lurking at this wonderful forum for many months. I have learned so much from all of you already. We're in the process of adopting a Siberian kitten who we should be getting next weekend. We've named her Chloe and are really looking forward to...
