We are having a bit of a problem with our oldest Charlie (almost 1 year). Anytime anyone comes to our apartment he gets upset. He doesn't hide, he just looks at them (and us) and howls. It has gone as far as growling and hissing at a couple of people (my mom and my husbands mom mainly). Our...

I thought Casey has an "Abby" look too, although who knows what else is mixed in there. I understand your "tiredness"!! Casey got us up at 5am lastnight to be cuddled. I tried, as I always do, to roll over and ignore him but that is impossible. He will not leave you alone until you cuddle him...

We think our Casey is part oriental. He has the classic body type and the biggest ears I have ever seen (we have to keep him tied down on windy days ). He is also the most high energy cat I have ever had. He will play and chase things (especially the laser dot and his furry mice) until he...

I am in a similar situation and need advice... Charlie will be 1 next month and Casey is ~6 months. However that is where the similarity ends. Charlie is a BIG boy (16 pounds) and really needs to lose some weight. Casey is about 7 pounds and is fine weight wise. I had originally intended to...

I have had both males and females throught my life and I don't find any hard and fast rules apply. I've had males who were extremely affectionate and others that were aloof. The same with the females. I think it is really all about the individual's personality. When we got our oldest boy...

WOW!! If they can open the fridge pretty soon they'll learn how to use the can opener! The world as we know it will never be the same! I've tried the pebbles in the plants idea too. Unfortunately Charlie decided it was more fun to pick out the pebbles and play with them then to eat the...

I think it's just a random thing, kind of like how some people have high pitched voices and some have low pitched ones. Our Casey (a DSH) is a chirper, the only time he ever meows is when he wants to be fed. Charlie (also a DSH) meows constantly (actually it's more of a whine) and almost never...

If he's big on the "food chase" how about one of those toys that you can put treats in. I can't remember the brand name but I've seen them at WalMart. They are a plastic ball with holes. You put the treats (or food) in the centre and then as the kitty bashes the toy around the food falls out...

Both of our boys do the same thing when they are in a really deep sleep. They are probably just dreaming about something really good (like birds!).

I wouldn't worry too much. Our Charlie regularly goes tearing into the bathroom, screeches to a halt (usually too late), and bashes head first into the side of the tub. I'm amazed he's not brain damaged by now , but he keeps on doing it. When our 2 (Casey and Charlie) are playing they often...

Our big boy Charlie (9 months) is the biggest clutz I have ever seen. He routinely falls off things, trips over his own feet and is a terrible jumper. He has been this way since we got him at 11 weeks old. There is nothing physically wrong with him, he is just a clutz. His "clutziness"...

Our baby Casey is a squeaker. The only time he meows is when he's waiting to be fed, and even then he is pretty quiet. The only other noise he makes is a PUURUUP when he's chasing his toys. Charlie, on the other hand, is a talker (and a whiner) he cries if he's locked in a room, out of a...

Casey and Charlie both love drining out of the tap in the bathroom sink. Charlie actually drinks out of the stream while Casey just licks the bottom of the sink. The bathtub is also a source of facination in our place, they both come running as soon as you start the water and they both love...

Our new baby Casey LOVES armpit scratches! He will lie there and purr like a maniac. He is also very fond of belly rubs (and everywhere else rubs). Charlie prefers to have his head and cheeks petted/scratched but will tolerate a little bit of petting pretty much anywhere. From the instant we...

When Charlie is in the right mood (usually while I'm trying to cook dinner) he demands to be picked up and carried. He just wants you to carry him around, he doesn't care where. Charlie also won't eat "leftover" food from his dish... but if you add a couple of pieces of fresh he goes to town!

Around our place the favorite snack is probably popcorn... but it HAS to have butter on it or they turn up their noses. Charlie LOVES brocolli (he begs for it and tries to steal it off your plate), and he also likes green beans, niblet corn, carrots, rice, lettuce, chips (but not Salt &...

Our 7.5 month old male, Charlie, is a big licker. I usually get my entire face cleaned at least once per day. His favorite is to lick the end of my nose, which can get quite painful after a couple of minutes. Our little male, Casey, is just starting to become a licker except that his...

Our newest addition, Casey, growls when he's playing with his toys. It is so cute to see him with a bright purple mouse in his mouth growling up a storm! Our other cat, Charlie, doesn't do this at all. He also seems confused when Casey growls. Just shows you how different their...

We had a Siamese, Sugarfoot, that would fetch hair curlers (the foamy kind). He would drop it at your feet (or in your lap if you were ignoring him) and wait for you to throw it again. This would go on for as long as you would keep throwing the toy!

I've never had this problem myself but a friend has. She ended up wearing a toque to bed to protect her head and her hair. It was a bit hot but it worked.
