I've got an upcoming move overseas in which I cannot take pets. I need to find a home for Rossi. He's 5 years old, fixed, and de-clawed. He's an indoor only cat and very loving. He's excellent with dogs, adults, and children. If you are in the Austin/San Antonio area and can help please...

I have a cat, he's 5 years old, neutered and de-clawed that is in need of a loving home. If you know anyone in the central Texas area that would provide a good indoor home for him please let me know. I will deliver.

Hi everyone.. It's been about 4 years since I posted this thread. I just wanted to tell you all that MK is doing great. He's as normal as you'd expect, nothing slows him down. It's hard to believe the other two cats are already 5 years old, they were just babies when I originally posted this...

I guess I should have clarified, this is not my cat... although I wouldn't mind because she is so cute. The pictures are from a Japanese site. I would love it if one of my three would wear one of these. I bought them a little pumpkin hat from Target once, they got it off in about .0000005...

I wish my cat would wear one of these all the time.

I am so happy to hear that Tiger is doing well after having what appears to be an indentical problem to my MK. I was hoping that my post would let most cat owners know that broken hips doesn't spell the end for cats. Keep an eye on your cats other hip just as a precaution, because believe me...

Well it's been 6 months and M.K. is in great shape! He jumps on anything and you would NEVER know he doesn't have any actual hip joint connections. Since we moved into our new larger house he runs continuously! So just remember two broken hips on a large male cat does NOT signal the end, he...

I have three cats, two of which are 15 month old brothers and one who is three years old. One of the younger brothers eats constantly, he has a good metabolism but is starting to put on some extra weight. He weighs about 2 1/2 lbs more than his brother. My question is since I work all day and...

I am done training my little Jinxy to play fetch. If you throw, flick, or toss his toy mouse anywhere he will bring it back to your hand. It is truly amazing how well he does it, if you are sitting on the couch watching TV he will bring the mouse up and drop in your lap when he wants to play...

Does anyone on this site ACTUALLY have their cat toilet trained? I have an unused bathroom that the 3 of them could use, and I sure would rather flush a couple of times a day for them rather than clean the box.

I have the same problem, Jinx and Rossi are brothers, Jinx burns off everything but Rossi is gaining quite a pot. I try stop him from making returns to the bowl, I only feed them 2-3x/day, which is good for the other two. If I leave a little extra food in the morning Rossi always heads back to...

I use scented clumping litter that I buy @ Sam's. I scoop it every morning before work... I wish they would crap outside but I don't want them out there running around the neighborhood.

It has been a long time since I posted on this board, but I thought since so many of you said nice things I would provide an update on MK. Two months has passed since his second hip surgery and he is doing great! He doesn't jump like he used to at all, just in the last two weeks he finally...

I live in Austin TX and have 3 cats. MK (Mr. Kitty) 2 years, Jinx 1 year, and Rossi 1 year (Jinx and Rossi are from the same litter). They are all crazy! I posted a thread about MK's two broken hips in the Health and Nutrition section. He is making a speedy recovery!

The vet mentioned that his Growth plates may not have fused together correctly as he grew. He was not a really big cat, 2 years old at about 12-13 lbs. We have inquired numerous times our vet whether or not this could happen to his other bones. He has reassured us that it will NOT happen and...
