I just got my cat, and my vet recomended Advantage so that is what I put on him. But, it left a bald spot where I applied it. It wasnt irritated looking at all, just bald. Now, 3 weeks later, the hair is growing back. I dont know why it left the bald spot. I havent seen any fleas though.

I'm so glad it isnt just my cat! I was beginning to get worried there was something wrong with him. But then it occurred to me that neutered male dogs "hump" objects, people, other animals too. Even my spayed female dog does it! So I guess while it isnt a desired behavior...it is not...

Not sure how to ask this. But whenever I pet my male kitty (he's neutered) and he is purring and kneading with his paws....his penis starts poking out. Is this a normal reaction? He has also on occaision when I was rubbing his belly grabbed onto my arm in a mating fashion. Is this normal? I...

The actual Logic Gel isnt expensive....but shipping from UK to US is like $30.

I FOUND HIM !!!! And guess where.................... He had found a tiny hole in the bottom of my box springs on my bed.....and crawled. I found him when I looked under the bed and noticed a my box spring covering was sagging on the underside. It was my kitty. At least I know his...

I cant find my cat anywhere! There is no way he could have gotten outside. I saw him at 3am this morning when I got up to use the bathroom. He was on my bed and jumped down when I got up. And all my doors and windows have been closed since then. I have checked behind and under every piece...

My kitty needs something for his teeth to prevent any further plaque, tarter, and inflammation. I found 1 website that will ship Logic Gel to the US....but it says they require a prescription. Do they really for that stuff...and it is expensive. But I found Petrodex at PetSMart. It is an...

Thank you so much for easing my mind....I love my new boy. I do keep his litter pan clean. And when I did see him possibly backing to a wall, it was in plain view of me. I think he was just turning around happened to stop with his back to the wall. I'm pretty sure if he sprayed, I'd know...

One more question....sometimes my kitty acts like he is "digging" in my carpet or bed. He usually seems to "dig" and then lay down or just go somewhere else. I keep wondering if he is thinking of pooping or peeing where he is digging? Or is he just making his bed?

Uh oh. My new kitty is male, about 4 years old and neutered. Since I adopted him, I have no idea at what age he was neutered. The lady at the shelter said she had kept him in her home for a few weeks, and he never sprayed our went out of the litterbox even being around a ton of cats. Now, I...

I got my new kitty some Maxximum cat food from Wal-Mart since several people on here suggested it as a healthy cat food. But my new kitty wont eat it! I seemed to really like Meow Mix, which is what I got him at first not knowing it was so unhealthy for him. He wont even touch the Maxximum...

My aunt has 5 cats. This is what she does. She buys the cheapest regular litter she can find. Then buys those cheap aluminum pans you can throw away. She just dumps the whole thing pan and all every 3-4 days and starts over fresh. She said it works great for her. But her litter boxes are...

I've read a few posts about kitty dental care that recomend Logic Gel to help with plaque and tarter and gum health. Where can I get it? I've only been able to find it on UK websites. I live in the USA. Anyone know if the UK websites will ship it to USA? Do I need an Rx for it, or can I...

Found out at least part of the problem today. My kitty has tapeworms. I found those white rice looking things and took him to the vet. They gave him a dewormer and another to give him in 3 weeks. So maybe that will help. And I got some Maximum food at Wal-Mart.

Interesting. At least other cats have it too. At first I thought his teeth might be rotting out! But they seem fine other than the coloring. I wonder if cats teeth can get discolored by too much fluoride in drinking water like human's can? My mom has dark brown streaks in her teeth from too...
