All right, I've posted two topics on the subject of my kittens before...I'm just this clueless about raising them I suppose...Anyway, all the kittens seem healthy but one kitten hasn't opened one of his eyes. I tried cleaning it very gently with some warm water and was a little startled when pus...

I generally feed her Iams soft food because it's just easier on her teeth. I've tried different foods so I'm not so sure it's that. The last time we took her to the vet, it did more harm than good. Some cats just aren't social. Katy is one of those cats that hides and spazzes if anyone comes...

I figured it couldn't hurt to ask while I'm here- My oldest cat, Katy, is about fifteen now. In her older age she got into a habit of scratching her skin. She had this problem when she was younger and it was generally an allergic reaction to plastic or lamb. For the last couple of years it's...

Heh, the word "emergency" makes me nervous >.>;;. I moved the mattress off the bed on day one. That way I could get to them...though it also means I've been sleeping on the sofa for the past couple weeks ...

I posted a while back about my cat Bastet. Well, the kittens are all alive and well (knock on wood) but they're beginning to wander. Bast had the kittens under my bed which I would imagine isn't a very sanitary/safe place to begin with. I tried to move them quite a bit but nothing pleases Bast...

One last question - Since she's still in my room, should I keep the door closed or open? Bastet does come out from time to time. When the door's closed she meows so I can come open it for her (she has everything she needs in there of course) but I'm not sure whether I should just leave it open...

My dog is a chiuauah so no, no large dog crates. She didn't actually have her babies on the carpet so much as the notebooks I keep under my bed. (so I can work on stories/ideas under my lamp until I'm ready to sleep). Heh, either way, I'd already intending to clean up as soon as she feels like...

I was under the impression my cat, Bastet, was just getting fat. I have one rather large cat already. Bastet isn't that old. She just started going into heat so I had made an apointment to get her spayed even though she is strictly an indoor car. My mother is rather careless and it seems let her...
