    First Cat Cold

    So my second cat, Catrick, has a mild URI. He's a pretty recent addition to the household, and only my second cat. The first, Mozzie, hasn't had a cold since I adopted her. Catrick is 9 months old, had a clean bill of health as of his adoption two weeks ago, and is FIV+. He started getting...

    Introducing New Cat: Three Days In

    So on Saturday morning I brought home a second cat, with the long-term goal of keeping Mozzarella happier and, most crucially, busy, because she was getting pretty attention-seeking in her feline loneliness. Well, now Sir Catrick Stewart (9 mo DSH) is all settled in and currently confined mostly...

    Just Adopted FIV+

    Yesterday I brought home Catrick, a 9-month-old, otherwise healthy FIV+ kitty. He was a street kitten and had no wounds when they found him, so the rescue assumes he got it from his mother. He was originally at a kill shelter that didn't have the certification to house FIV+ cats, so they were...

    Mozzarella Before and After Adoption!

    These are my comparison photos for my cat Mozzie, the week I got her (1 & 3) vs. three months later (2 & 4). She is currently a perfectly healthy weight, she just massively increased in fluffiness because she stopped over-grooming out of stress!

    Normal face?

    Does anyone know if this cat's face is just unique, or if it might indicate genetic or traumatic health issues? It's not flat-faced, but it looks pretty pug-like. I've never seen this before!

    Second cat personality?

    For those of you who have successfully added a second adult cat to your household with an existing adult cat: what personality/sex combos worked for you? I know it's a bit of a coin toss when it comes down to it, but I want the best chance of success as far as I can control. My existing cat is 4...

    Tips on making a catio?

    I'm looking into turning my apartment balcony into a catio, especially since I'm planning on bringing home cat #2 this weekend and maximizing space/giving them both extra stimulation wouldn't be a bad thing! My roommate and I don't really use it so it might as well be a cat space. It's a...

    My cat has a weird history of vocalizations!

    So there's one thing about my cat that is just a total mystery... when I adopted her, Mozzarella Stick could not meow! In fact, any noise seemed like a struggle for her. She could do the low, upset whine, but whenever she meowed (or looked like she was trying) the only sound that came out was...

    Getting a Second Cat

    Hey folks! So I'm likely going to get a second cat this weekend, but I'd love advice from people who have done it. Context: my Mozzarella is 4 to 6 years old, healthy, and settled in well at my 1200 sq. ft. apartment. I've had her for 6 months, and both me and my roommate love her. But over the...

    Hey, y'all!

    Hi everyone! I'm Hannah, and this is my furchild Mozzarella Stick (she goes by Mozzie usually). I live in Middle Tennessee, and I've had Mozzie for about 6 months now. I got her from a local cat rescue cafe, and she's been the best! She sleeps on my pillow next to my head every night and knocks...
