    Have to acclimate a cat to other cats while in the middle of a move

    I'm not sure if she hasn't been spayed already--I don't see a scar but on my cat I have now, I can't see or feel hers either. Plus, I've had a cat pregnant in the past so I'm thinking she's possibly already spayed. :)

    Have to acclimate a cat to other cats while in the middle of a move

    Hi folks! I didn't see this situation in some of the cat introduction threads so I wanted to pose it here and ask for advice. :) I currently have two cats, Tom and Chloe. Tom is 4, a maine coon and tends to be reserved but he gets along with most cats he's been around. Chloe is 2, a little...

    Has anyone had a bad reaction to Cheristin flea meds?

    Oh Jules, I am so very sorry! I would be devastated too! My heart just hurts for you!   I can honestly say that I've never had a flea problem on my cats but I follow these threads just in case, but I think if they ever do, I'll follow your advice and never use that product!!  Big hugs!!!

    Blood on my cat's anus

    I agree, sometimes it's very hard to take your pet to the vet when some of them charge more than if you were bringing a kid to the pediatrician! While I keep a credit card free of charges and to be used only in an emergency (which vet care would be, for me), I googled this issue and found this...

    Anyone Else Use Coconut Oil?

    I honestly have never heard of giving coconut oil to my pets, dogs or cats, so I googled "Is coconut oil bad for cats?" I got a lot of hits, for both the benefits and dangers of coconut oil. I tend to trust best the vet links, where the majority state that in moderation, coconut oil won't hurt...

    Why Does Frontline and Advantage Not Work For Fleas Now?

    I just wanted to post that a good website for pet needs, including meds, is petshed.com. They are less expensive than 1-800 petmeds and you don't have to go through the rigamarole of mailing a prescription. I've scanned mine and sent them along with my online order and they are fine with that...

    Solutions to dirty butt

    LOL, I've never heard of this but it sure gave me a chuckle! My Tommy is a Maine Coon and has long hair and I have to keep it trimmed on his backside or yeah, he'll get stuff and litter stuck in his hair--don't blame him for not wanting to lick that off! LOL!!  I've actually taken him into the...

    Can male cats spray after being neutered?

    Whew, good because my house is for sale right now and I'd hate for it to be smelling from my cat spraying--it's hard enough to keep the kitty litter clean and "smell-free"  with my two cats already!! LOL!!! Thanks for the reassurance!! :)

    Can male cats spray after being neutered?

    My cat Tom just recently started doing this--he wiggles his tail like he's spraying but nothing comes out (Thank God!)--He's been neutered but I have to wonder what is causing him to start this tail wiggling behavior??
