She has fleas. I've been looking for them like crazy and I finally saw one yesterday when I actually wasn't looking! I called the vet and am picking a couple months worth of Advantage for her. She must not have many because I have been checking her over and over; she's a white cat so they...

I was petting my 10-year old kitty's tummy today and noticed a small bald spot with some black dots on her skin that look like flea dirt but I am certain that she does not have fleas. First, and foremost, she was just at the vet on Wednesday and my vet is a flea freak - she totally would have...

Amarna, you are a genius! I put a night light in the bedroom and she stopped chirping/meowing almost immediately. She did it a little the first night but never again since then. I had nightlights in every room of my apartment with the exception of my bedroom and so that explains why she...

She currently has a dry food only diet and she is fed at approximate 12 hour intervals; she gets 1/3 cup around 7 a.m and 1/3 cup around 7 p.m. and she grazes on it all day/night between feedings. She refuses to eat wet food. Should I then delay the evening feeding until after playtime/right...

I moved into a new apartment approximately 2 1/2 weeks ago with Powder, my young-acting 10 year old cat. My husband and I have separated and so Powder and I moved out. I searched for and read many of the previous posts about how to make the move easiest for Powder and the transition went...

Thanks, everyone, for the warm welcome - I really appreciate it! I am so excited to finally have a place to share my love for kitties!

Thanks, you guys. I am sitting here bawling my eyes out right now because I just posted in the Strays/Ferals subforum about my stray, Georgie, who I had euthanized yesterday. I am just sick over this and I need all the help and support I can get. Thanks, again.

Hi, all! I am new here and this only my second post (my first post was in the introduction area). Here's a little background about my stray colony: I have my own "colony/neighborhood" of strays that I feed. Over the last five years I have rescued approximately 10 strays from my neighborhood...

Hi, everyone! I am new here and just wanted to stop in to introduce myself. I am a 35 year old married woman who lives in Michigan. I have no human children, instead I have my cat Powder, who is a 10-year old white domestic shorthair. I also have one gerbil named Shirley (her sister Laverne...
