    Is it possible to keep cats off of counters and tables?

    Hi all! Lookin' for some advice on Mischief. Now that he's bigger (a whoppin' 4#'s at 11 weeks, ), he's learnin' he can do all sorts of fun things... ...like jump onto the dining table while we're eating... ...or counter surf while I'm preparing meals... He is our first kitten, the cats that...

    6 week old kitty...what should I do?

    He comes home today! We've got everything in place. We actually had our neighbor switched him over to Nutro's Kitten food (wet) over the past couple of weeks (we bought the food for him). He's super duper cute! The kids have spent tons of time with him at the neighbor's house and we've...

    6 week old kitty...what should I do?

    Dh and I talked it over. We really can't get another kitten. The base that we live at only allows 2 pets per household. You can get a waiver for 3 but it's a pretty grilling process and you can get a lot of grief from housing over it (like they can start nitpicking you on "discrepancies"...

    6 week old kitty...what should I do?

    Thanks everyone for your help! Momma-Cat has "Mischief" for a few more days, then he'll be officially 8 weeks old and ready for us to try again. My neighbor can't give us more time than that because I guess housing is leaning on her because she's exceeded the pet limit. The other littermates...

    Hi all! We will be brand spankin' new kitty parents to an 8 week ol' ball of energy. We want to do everything right, including getting the right kitty litter. We'd like to find something that is eco-friendly but also might help cut down on odors and easy to clean. Inexpensive would be a good...

    First time Kitty Mom here!

    Hi all! Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Patti and I am a first time kitty mom. I've had a couple adult cats before but never a kitten. I'm excited and nervous. We've always fancied ourselves as "Dog people" but our daughter fell in love with cats so we thought, "Why not?" We...

    6 week old kitty...what should I do?

    He's eating his food and seems alright to me. Sometimes he'll whine while eating like, "This isn't what I want but it's here and I'm hungry." But he is eating. He just cries and cries. I just talked to Dh and he wants to try to keep him with his Momma for a couple more weeks. If she's...

    6 week old kitty...what should I do?

    Hi all, A gal from another message board refered me to this board for some help. We just got a kitty today, he's only 6 weeks. This is the first time we've ever gotten a kitty, we've only adopted older cats. This one came to us from our next door neighbor. I think she was worried she was...
