    Hairball Question on Rescue Cat

    Today I called the vet. She suggested an over the counter product from the pet store. Nothing specific. Instead I went and bought a can of pumpkin. I had Metamucil here from the original problem with Susie. I tried putting a little of that on some fishy cat food that she has really responded to...

    Hairball Question on Rescue Cat

    Thanks for the great support post.  Here are answers to your questions. Is her stool normal or is it dry?  Her stools have been great. However, she skipped eating on Wednesday altogether and ate only once today. So, I will be paying close attention tomorrow. She is not an only cat. I have a 7...

    Comment by 'kim23' in article 'A Scientific Take On Cat Nutrition By Dr. Rachel Boltz'

    Thank you for writing about nutrition in cats. As a new cat owner, I am finding this subject very complex.  I am reading everything and think I have selected products that my very fussy cat will eat and are considered healthy. I have donated several cases of cat food along the way.

    Aggressive cat, want to keep him but afraid of him

    Rubbing his cheek on anything is great. He is leaving his scent and making your place 'our place'. Cats mix their scent in with their environment and it becomes home for them. I am dealing with inappropriate scratching too. I have bought several scratching posts and placed them around the house...

    What do you think of this "Alpha Female Cat" description?

    I currently have Susie, pictured, and a sweet 7 month old male. Susie is 5 years old. Both of my cats are recent rescues and are still learning their new home. Susie fits the description above. I will be interested in other opinions because I am a bit confused about whether everything is as it...

    Not yet ready

    Pusi is beautiful. I would really look at your situation differently. This baby needed to come inside and have you care for him. He has had a tough life and is very ill. While you are likely to lose him, think about all the care and love you have provided to Pusi. You have enriched his life and...

    Should i be trying to prevent this?

    Consider your vertical spaces too. Cats love to climb. There are many cat trees, shelves, ideas for catification on the Internet. Look up Jackson Galaxy or google catification for ideas. Good luck.

    What breed is my cat?

    Well she could be many different breed mixes. I would guess Main Coon because of the lovely scruff of fur on her neck and her squarish jawline. Is she a large cat? Is she three years old or older? Main Coon and Norwegian Forest cats take 5 years to grow to their adult size. They can look quite...
