    Strange kitten behavior

    This will be a longer thread, but I don't want to leave anything out. I fostered 3 orphaned kittens and their surrogate mother. 2 of the kittens were adopted and then mom and the "runt" were adopted together separately. The runt was just returned to me after a few weeks because she was really...

    Planning my sons B-day any more ideas?

    A 'hook', as in Captain Hook? My nephew was a pirate for Halloween and he looked adorable with his 'hook'. Eye patches?

    Cats without eyebrows?

    Anal gland problem?

    Hello all. I haven't posted here in awhile, and now have a concern about my boy Rocky. He's always had a nasty habit of not covering his pooh after he goes, but I've noticed lately the smell has gotten worse and worse. Several days ago, after he went, the odor wafted in with him when he came...

    Keeping cat off kitchen table

    I am having a heated discussion with someone who is encouraging someone to put mouse traps on the kitchen table under newspaper to scare their cat into staying off. This method will supposedly give the cat a 'pinch and a scare'. I believe this is cruel, and that a cat should never be...
