    Tigger's gone!

    So sorry about Tigger. Hope you find her soon. My Lucy has learned to open all sliding doors and has got out 3 times. We have coyotes near by and it terrifies me. I since keep the sliders locked. They are such escape artists.

    How often do you offer canned food?

    Thanks to Lovemypets for the reply. He has been to the vet and was dewormed and had a clear follow up. I think he tends to eat too much and then run around. I have cut down on portions of wet food and so far so good. Thanks!

    How often do you offer canned food?

    Hi, I have 2 questions. I am giving my 2 cats wet food 1-2 times a day (Nutro pouch) and share a pouch between them. I also give dry Iams all day in the bowl. My 4 month old kitten, Ricky threw up dry Science Diet kitten twice so I stopped and switched to Iams but today he threw up a lot of...

    mucky eye

    Hi, I have experience with feline eye infections. I had a foster feral with a bad eye infection. She gave it to my adult cat. My new kitten and his littermates also had this. It is common in kittens and they get it originally from their mothers. Most of the time it is caused by a bacteria...

    Hello to my new Cat Friends!!

    Welcome Chele, Hope you resolve the agressive behavoir. I'm lucky that my adult cat is quite maternal and has seemed to adjust well to my new kitten. She plays much less with me and almost only with him. It's great to talk to other cat lovers! Good luck with your furbabies.

    Love Nips?

    Thanks for the advice. I do put him off the bed and think this may be helping. I will try the blowing and see if that helps. He really is wonderfully affectionate and playful and has been very well behaved. I guess us human animals don't know what's socially acceptable for the feline group!

    Love Nips?

    I have a 13 week old male kitten. He's very sociable and playful. He comes into bed with me and like to snuggle but he also crawls up to my face and licks and then nibbles my lip. I feel that I am an honorary cat but even though he doesn't hurt now I don't want a pierced lip at a future date...

    Hi, Thanks for the warm welcome. Mentioning loud purring....my little boy likes to come into bed with me in the middle of the night and lick my face and nibble on my lip! Also he sounds like a purring machine. Is this lip nibbling thing usual? Also how to get him to stop this. Cuddling is...

    Me and my three

    Hi Jeamy, Welcome. I'm new here, too. I have 2 fur friends now. My family also is stacked on the side of the dog-lovers. They call me the cat-lady. At least one of my sons just adopted a kitten, though I think he would get a dog if he could. I never had a cat until I adopted Lucy 8 months...

    Trying to guess my cat's age by playing behavior

    Hi,I adopted a stray 8 months ago. She's fairly docile ("laid back" as we say). She was severely under weight and it took about 2 months for her to start really playing. She also likes the cat teasers with feathers and would jump up to catch it and chase it around. Recently she toned down...

    2 wonderful cats and glad to find this site!

    Hi, I am crazy about my 2 cats. Lucy came to us 8 months ago. She is a long haired domestic. She was a stray brought into a vets clinic. She's the sweetest cat ever and follows me around. Likes both people and other cats. She's about 5 yrs. We just adopted a boy kitten who was abandoned in...
