    Losing weight in her belly

    I have a 10 yr old female who is a bit overweight in her belly. I recently was away for 4 weeks and she was home with my fiancé. He cared for her and  my other cat. I noticed that her belly bulge is smaller since I returned but she also seems more active. She's been running and playing more...

    Hissing and Growling After the Vet

    I brought me female to the vet yesterday for a routine dental cleaning and everything went well until I got home. My male cat has been hissing and growling at Jinxy since I got home with her. Teddy is never mean to her. It seems as if she smells different to him and he doesn't like that...

    Dry Flaky Skin

    Jinxy is a 5yr old spayed female & Teddy is a neutered 3 yr old male. They get dry & wet food every day. They were both last at the vet for a check up about 6 months ago.

    Dry Flaky Skin

    My 2 kitties have dry flaky skin & it's on their fur. What can I do? The heat in our new home is forced air & so dry! The more I brush them the worse it gets. They are scratching so I guess it's not bothering them but it is really bad. Any suggestions?

    Not sure if cats are playing

    I was wondering the same thing--I have a 2yr old girl--Jinxy & a 3 month old Teddy. We just adopted Teddy a month ago. Sometimes it is hard to tell if they are fighting or playing--they roll around & wrestle--but I don't hear any growling or hissing so I guess it's playing--sometimes I do see...

    Growling Kitten

    Thanks for the advice. I am feeding Teddy IAMS wet & dry food--maybe not enough--he always has dry food & I feed him wet food 2x daily--about a tablespoon each time. I usually pick up Jinxy's food & put it out of Teddy's reach when she is done but he must watch her & as soon as she leaves her...

    I adopted a 3 month old kitten about 3 weeks ago--His name is Teddy! He has a 2 year old female sister too, Jinxy! I have dry kitten food available for him all the time & I also feed him wet food 2 times daily. Anytime I remove him from his sister's big kitty food & re-direct him to his...
