Lets hope we all survive it!!

We have a 4 month old kitten who LOVES to climb and to jump. I also have a daughter who loves Christmas and the Christmas tree (live of course) I am very worried about Pumpkin climing inside the tree or jumping onto the tree. Has anyone else run into this problem? Any solutions or tips you...

Thanks for all the suggestions. Pumpkin actually does seem to be getting better. She tries to climb up a few times and then she gives up. It's progress.

We've had our new kitty for about a month now. She's great, but she's so stubborn! When we start eating she comes a running. She jumps and climbs up our legs or the furniture and tries to get into our plates. I counted the other day and I picked her up and put her on the floor over 50 times...

Can I jump in on this one? I was about 80 pounds over what I know feels healthy for me (which is about 20 pounds ovder the chart weight. I also have some aches in my back and knees that I know the weight is aggravating. The only way I could approach this was by working towards eating healthy...

Thanks for all of the great ideas. I've tried a lot of them and she's had fun with them. I did buy a couple of toys at the pet store. They are cat nip filled smallish stuffed figures at the end of a small bungie cord that you tie to a doornob. She can spend a 1/2 hour jumping and chasing...

I actuall have a similar problem,since I have two dogs and a new kitten. Sammi and Trikki would gobble up the kittens food in no time. We have a two story house with a baby gate to keep the dogs from upstairs until it's time to go to bed. We put the cat's food dish in the hall upsatirs.

I we have a new kitten and she is a love, however she has a couple of things that she does that we want to make sure we nip in the bud before they become real problems. Sometimes when she's playing with me she'll start trying to bite my hand (not a little nibble). I immediatley pick her up and...

It's so nice to hear from people with more experience with cats. I have dogs, but our new kitten is a little bit of a mystery. Has anyone already had adult dogs when their new kitten came to the house? If so, what kind of toys did you get for the kitten? We can and do play with her with...

My kitten watches TV with my husband. She also thinks the computer screen is fascinating. The cursor moving is especially intersting, but she just loves to sit and wacth everything moving. I sometimes find myself craning my neck to see the screen around this 1 1/2 pound kitten!

It's nice to hear that Pumpkin's a nice normal kitty. I'm a little computer illiterate when it comes to getting pictures on the computer, but once I figure it out I'll post a picture of Pumpkin and maybe all my "babies"

My family just adopted a new kitten. Sicne she's an orange tabby my daughter named her pumpkin. We already have a beagle named Sammi and a pug named Trikki (my baby). Pumpkin is keeping us all very entertained with her kitten tricks. She does have one habit that I'd love to know if other...
