Merlin's upper right canine was pulled before I adopted him, and now his lower right canine snags his upper lip all the time. A couple days ago he must have been playing with my other cat Ringo, and he bit his upper lip so hard that he bled. So I'm wondering if pulling his lower right canine...

I adopted Merlin a week ago. I let him sleep with me the first couple nights, but he walks across my pillow several times per night and wakes me up. On Wednesday I was so sleep deprived that I had to take an afternoon nap. So I've closed him out of the bedroom the last few nights, only he meows...

I adopted Bosco last winter, and the shelter warned me that he bites when he's overstimulated. I thought they meant play-biting, so I said "no problem". However, he bites hard enough to draw (a little) blood, and he hangs on too. He doesn't bite when I've been petting him too much; instead, he...

(I do it sometimes, but I'm wondering about cats specifically. ) My first three cats never drooled, but my current two cats do. Their mouths are like faucets when their motors get going. So I'm wondering if this is common in cats, or did I just hit the jackpot, twice?

I adopted Bosco from the Humane Society a month ago. They warned me that he nips when he's over-stimulated, and he's done it a few times. But on Saturday he was sitting on my lap, and he bit my arm really hard and drew blood. I shoved him off my lap and walked quickly toward him because he was...

Hello, I recently adopted another cat (Bosco), and we just have a small problem. Whenever he sees me getting ready to leave my apartment (unless he's sleeping), he takes up a position a few feet from the door, then when I open it, he tries to escape. I've tried yelling and nudging him away with...

I adopted a 4 yr old male cat last Tuesday and named him Bosco. I have an 11 yr old resident cat named Elmo. I put Bosco in my bedroom for a couple days, and on Friday I switched them. I was letting them look at each other through a baby gate a few times per day while they were separated. There...

Elmo has always been a dry food Hoover that sprays out all the junk he just sucked up. I bought a slow feed bowl a few months ago, and that has helped a lot, at least for his nightly dry food snack (he gets canned food in the am and pm). The problem is that when I went on vacation, I had to use...

Hi, I adopted an adult cat, Sophie, from the Humane Society this past Sunday. Five days later, she's still under my bed most of the day. My other cat, Elmo, hissed at her defensively whenever he saw her for the first couple days, but he's stopped that now. She'll come out a few times a day and...

Hello, I have a very large cat, Elmo, who's overweight but also very large-framed. I also have a small cat, Daphne. Elmo's predecessor was the same size as Daphne, so when I put down their canned food, they would both eat for a few minutes, go away, come back and eat some more, etc. It took...
