My female cat, Alex has this problem. From the second I wake up or walk in the door from work, it starts. She just meows and meows and meows. It drives me up the wall! I also feel guilty, because my male cat (Spats) is so quiet, I am drawn to give him attention while I sometimes feel nothing...

According to the vet, the only explanation for Spat's bad teeth is genetics. Unfortunately it was his "luck of the draw" from his kitty parents. As to leaving the carrier out, I do that on a limited basis. I have learned that if I just bring it out the same day as taking him anywhere, he...

I am really at a loss as to how to help my cat. My male cat, Spats inherited very bad teeth. I learned this little fact one day when I came home from work to find a bloody tooth on the floor. I have 2 cats, so my first task was to discover who it belonged to. Accomplishing that, I took Spats...

Does anybody else have a cat who likes to lick the walls or do I just have a strange cat? I would like to get him to stop. Any suggestions?

My female cat, Alexandria, seems to be challenging me lately. I have very few rules for my 2 guys, I just don't want them on my food areas(dining room table, kitchen counter, etc). Usually, they adhere to this rule when I am around. I understand that when I am gone all bets are off, and there...

The Basic Rules for cats who have a household to run is not a book. It is a list that can be downloaded off of the Internet. The list is really very funny.

Out of curiosity, Has anyone read or do you have a copy of The Rules For Cats Who Have a Household to Run?

Okay, here's an update. I spoke with my neighbor today and he says that his cat is doing much better. He thinks the trauma may have been caused when he had to leave town while the cat was sick and he boarded him. The cat, although receiving care, felt abandoned and began acting out. For the...

I wondered why my male cat always presenst me with his rear when I give him a rub down. Hmmm...

For my 2 they are: -no getting on the counters or tables, -no hurting each other, -no hurting me, -no clawing the rugs, -catterwalling at night. I also hate when they beg. I struggle to keep myself from overfeeding them. They have plenty of food, so I really hate it when they meow at me...

Greetings! I am new to this forum and just happened to find this site by accident. My neighbor has a dilemma with his cat Elvis that I was helping him out with by posting in the behavior forum. I've also posted something about my own cats as well. I have 2 cats, Spats and Alexandria. My...

What is Bachs Remedy?

No updates. He has not given him up yet and really wants to keep him - without the problems, of course. Our schedules have not matched up in the last few days, so I have not had a chance to pass on the suggestions that you guys have given. I will however as soon as I can and will pass on the...

Is there anyway you could get someone to house sit instead of just visiting a couple of times a day? The reason I ask is that cats get lonely. The longest that I have left my 2 cats is about 3 weeks, and that was with a catsitter who lived in my apartment while I was away. I actually always...

I find with mine, they kind of go in cycles. Most times they sleep with me, but other times they will spend the night in the living room or elsewhere. My advice would be to be patient. They will come back to you again.

I already feed him things that she won't touch, making it seem like he is getting preferencial treatment. I can try the perches and greeting him first. Most days she greets me at the door and demands attention which drives me crazy. It probably drives him a little nuts, too.

I have 2 cats, one male, one female, both neutered, both about 7 years old. They are both rescued cats and they have pretty much grown up together. The problem is this: when they spar, my male cat who is heavier than my female usually goes overboard. He will end up pinning my female cat...

My neighbor took him to the vet and found him to be physically healthy. I believe the cat is doing this out of spite. It only happens when my neighbor is packing or, most recentoy, prepring to leave for work in the morning. He only does it in my neighbors presence. The cat is 4 years old and...

My neighbors cat has begun acting up whenever he goes away for a few days or now, even when he leaves to go to work. He has begun to "eliminate" on my neighbors bed as if to punish him. My neighbor is ready to give the cat away. I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions.
