When I put out some canned cat food, she will eat some then walk off. Sometimes she eats the rest later. Sometimes she never touches it any more, ever, even many hours later when I'm sure she's hungry.  Even with food she likes, she typically eats some, walks off and eats more later. But never...

This is related to my previous question about keeping canned cat food moist.  But this time, I wonder about going all the way.    My cat Kitty often licks all the liquid off the clump of canned food I put out, maybe nibbles a bit off the clump, and then usually ignores the leftover.    If I buy...

My Flea War Hitler, Mussolini, and Pol Pot had good ideas - when applied to fleas!   Undesired Immigrants Last fall, after only two months in my apartment in Gresham, Oregon, fleas had invaded.  Carbon, Lacey, and Kitty were staying with me at the time.  All were scratching, scratching and...

This playful fuzzy cat, born in Boulder, lived in several states ending up in Oregon, passed away last fall. I made a memorial web page.    http://darenscotwilson.com/spec/Lacey/lacey.html 

The Bicycle Inspector has arrived.   Unfortunately, due to my shoddy bike maintenance, I was fined one can of tuna. What has your cat inspected lately?
