Hi all, I described the situation in another thread here http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=178822
Basically, I gave a female cat to a friend who already had a male cat. After a few days of hissing/spitting/swatting, they started to coexist peacefully. They even were sort of...
So, I was in temporary custody of a cat for someone, and it was my job to find the cat a new home. I brought her to a friend's place where they had no other cat on Saturday (in fact, later they told me they had never had a cat in their lives), but they called me Monday to say the daughter's...
This cat I am temporarily taking care of drinks a lot. I know drinking lots of water can be a sign of renal failure, diabetes, etc.
But honestly, she seems totally fine except she keeps going to the water bowl! It's not even like she drinks TONS of water, I mean, I checked this morning and it...
hi everyone,
I have temporary custody of a friend's cat and noticed that since yesterday morning she has been trying to cough up what i think is a hairball. she hasn't coughed anything up. she tried several times yesterday morning and evening and then I even heard her this morning trying...
Hi everyone,
I have taken in a cat (just this Tuesday) for a very irresponsible friend of mine.
This friend (let's call her Julie) gave me this cat (let's call her Missy) in 2002. I took the cat in for Julie's boyfriend in 2002 and she ended up being the best cat in the entire world. I...
Hi all,
Currently I give Tola half a can of wet food in the morning and the other half of the can at night. I really want to make it so that I leave a bowl of dry food out all day, and feed wet only in the morning.
The problem is that as soon as I put the dry food out, even if she has JUST...
AFter a long and arduous process with Tola - I think I just have to accept that she doesn't like World's Best.
I started off with pine (that's what she came with), graduated to World's Best and she was fine with it. Then I went on holiday and they only had this P-Pod Healthy Pet stuff so I...
I just went into the bathroom to see that Tola pooped outside the litter box.
She has NEVER done this before since I have had her.
Yes, I did change the brand of litter, but I don't understand because she had this litter before the last one and she liked it.
I have gone from pine to World's...
If so, how's it going? I'm on, and I have a feeling it's going to be....sleazy. I actually did meet one decent guy that I am dating right now, but I want it to stay very casual.....
Any experiences? Good or bad?
I know she has the potential, but I'm wondering if there is any games I could play with her to sort of, spark her brain cells. You know like humans, the more we learn and stimulate the brain, the smarter we get (apparently). Just wondering if this is true for cats too?
Last night she did the...
Why? Why did I have to break it! I have been doing so well, going to the gym 4x weekly for the past month, making some progress with my weight, and now? Broken toe. ARGH!!!
It happened the more stupid and uninteresting way too. My heavy cutting board flipped in the air and the corner...
Well, Tola absolutely REFUSES to be held in order to clip her nails. I have had her for 3 weeks now and haven't clipped her nails because she absolutely will NOT let me. My experienced friend came over and tried to hold her and clip but Tola wasn't having any of it and crazily leaped out of...
Just wondering if anyone has any miraculous ideas to share about getting cat hair off furniture, bed linen, etc., besides washing. My mom was saying something about a special glove, but I don't know what she's talking about....
Thanks!
Hi all,
I just got back from a week away from Tola. I had a girl live in my apartment for the week I was gone. When I came home yesterday I fed her the usual small can of Nutro Max wet. She didn't eat it all, but I thought that maybe it was just because I disrupted things by coming home, etc...
Tomorrow I'm leaving for vacation for one week. I have a girl coming in to stay at my apartment with Tola all week. But I'm nervous! I can't stop thinking about her. I just adopted Tola on October 16 and now I'm leaving her for the first time. I keep thinking of her little soft small head...
I am planning on getting Tola onto high-quality (Wellness, Felidae) canned and dry food from her current raw food diet. How do I do it? How long should I mix old and new for? She is on 150 g of raw twice daily.
This is not a question about whether raw is good or not by the way, it's just in...
Hi,
My newly adopted one-year-old cat is peeing, but not pooping. She has only pooped some HUGE poops on Wednesday, and now it is Saturday. I gave her some canned pumpkin tonight with her food (she is on raw twice daily) and she ate it all. I am quite concerned and going to take her to the vet...
