I have two male cats. They are brothers and have been raised together all their lives. One of the male cats, Sunshine has always been my little boy. The second male, Doolittle, was the runt of the litter, and always split his affection equally between my hubby and I. Over the last week...

This is weird. We have two male cats. One of the cats has always been my cuddle buddy and is so gentle, and been this way for over 2 yrs. He always slept with me and wanted to be held. Sometime over the last three weeks, the other male has decided to hang around me all the time. It is to...

I have been feeding my three cats nutro indoor dry formula. The poor babies have been having bouts of throwing up, which I attributed to hairballs. My new vet said that Nutro has a problem with causing upset tummies at times. The vet also mentioned that Sunshine, my 2 yr old male, has what...

ok. this is my first christmas with kitties. Any suggestions on how I get the cats to stay out of the christmas tree? I bought another ssscat, and figured I would position this in the branches. To play it safe, I bought a bunch of unbreakable ornaments, unfortunately, some have pheasant...

I bought a sccat from online to see if it would help my behavior issue of my kittens running across my kitchen counters. I am happy to say it works like a charm. The only thing I dislike about it, is that I have to remember to turn it off when we are in the room. The cats don't seem timid due...

I was wondering at what age is a kitten at full weight? I have a main coon, and I have heard they mature later than most cats. Thanks.

I have two houseplants that my kittens love to treat as a salad bar. One is a prayer plant, which is on all the safe sites that I can find. I have a draceana tree too. I found several "novice" sites with this plant listed as toxic, and decided to dig deeper into veterinary college sites, and...

My three kittens, all 6 months old are becoming terrors. I can't keep them off of the kitchen counters, out of my planter, or off of the formal dining room table. I have used a strong voice followed by a squirt, and they know what "down" means, but lately they just test me. I say "down" and...

Hi. My 6 month kitten was spayed on Thursday am. We are noticing tonight that she is shaking in a shivering fashion. Her behavior is normal though. She is getting into everything, and is jumping on counters and being totally normal. I can't tell if she is warm to the touch. Should I take...

Hi. My 5 month old kitten got a sudden bout of diarrhea. I fed them all some plain yogurt about 3 hrs ago as a snack, on the advise of a friend who works at a vet. She told me it is good for their digestive tract. Could the yogurt have caused this? What should I do tonight with him...
