Nature's logic is a pretty good brand. I feed the rabbit variety.

The first thing that comes to mind is a dental issue, was her mouth checked for abscesses and rot? Other possible issues like stomach ulcers may not show up on an x-ray. Don't burden her with kittens at this stage, sounds like she can barely keep herself alive and the last thing she needs is...

Of course jealousy would go two ways, every cat wants to be the alpha and every kitten will try and fight for it. But out of concern for Zhara's safety since Abbie seems to be much more aggressive, let Abbie be the alpha. You can make up for it by petting Abbie first for 2 minutes then petting...

That's hilarious! I agree, probably just a very vivid dream. Or maybe he was trying to clear his throat.

I am thinking of transitioning my cat onto Natures Variety Instinct Raw Boost, which is freeze dried mixed with kibble. ThIs would be roughly half of their diet along with canned wet. So is the general consensus that it is ok?

You could take Daryl to meet her if the shelter can set you up in an isolated room for that purpose. Or ask if the shelter is willing to let you take her home for a trial week to see how Daryl reacts to the new addition. I'm sure the shelter would take her back if she can't get along with your...

Don't feed her as much as she wants. In my experience, ferals are always huge chow hounds when given the chance because they never know when their next meal will be, and so have learned to eat to breaking point whenever they can. If you are able to feed her daily, only give her the recommended...

The advice for lost dogs is to wear some items of clothing for 24 hours to get it smelling strongly of you, and then leave them strewn around on the porch/yard, in the hopes that the lost pet will be led back by catching the scent of something familiar. But since you haven't had the cat long, I...

Maybe he is biting because he's bored? I can see him being restless and hoping for playtime, but once he sees you sit down at the table or get into bed, he knows it'll be ages before you'll get up and play with him. So he tries to "scare" you away from the bed or table by biting. You are gone...

Acting hurt and pretending to cry or run away when he does this would send the message that he's hurting you.

Perhaps he's being a gracious adult and letting the kitten have the toys and attention she needs. He could also be suffering from a little mopey jealousy. I don't think it's anything serious though. Make sure to go after him and shower him with lots of attention (along with the kitten) till he...

This is downright psychotic behaviour. Someone who would harm a pet animal and then feel completely remorseless and even brag about it to the poor cat's family? She is not right in the head and I would move, move, move. Also, post "Cat Killer in the Vicinity" posters around your neighbourhood to...

Just give it time. Separate them for now. Have mama and baby living in one room, and Napolean living in another room. With timid cats, always start with a small space, and then slowly increase it so they have time to get used to their surroundings and gain the confidence that no nasty surprises...

That's adorable! If Piper goes missing someday, don't check my house, she's definitely not here ;) I am thinking of getting either a Persian or a Ragdoll...probably Ragdoll for the less shedding. Did I mention I'm allergic to cats and utterly in denial about it. Lol. Hives, no, my skin was born...

Let her in till spring! If it was snowing heavily just a few days ago, it's definitely still too cold for a cat to be outside. Cats are built to survive hot temperatures, not cold.
