    Male kitty Musks

    I have a 3 year old male, neutered cat and when he is being affectionate or something startles him, he will emit a little bit of this dark liquid that has a very pungent, musky smell. Its def. not urine or feces. He has done this for the past 2 years and while I love him and love giving and...

    Do Cats Musk as Defense Mechanism?

    That works for me. I'll just have to tell my husband to not play with her on the bed anymore (both times she did this has been on our bed...once was on the sheets so I was able to clean those but she did it today on our down comforter =o/ Thanks for all the help =o)

    Excessive Shedding...

    I'll have to try the Natural Choice...you sold me on that =o) She has a nice coat, its shiny and soft but the shedding is just really getting out of control. Plus I'm going to be having a baby in a month so I don't want her hair all over the place like it is now a days. Thanks for the help =o)

    Do Cats Musk as Defense Mechanism?

    You know, I did not think of that. I knew dogs can have problems with the anal glands but didn't think about cats having problems with them as well. That makes a lot of sense. Do you think I should have the glands drained every so often or just let them be? I read that they should drain...

    Excessive Shedding...

    I didn't think of the diet being the problem but it makes sense. I'll have to go to Petco or Petsmart then and buy her a better brand (would you recomend any brand that they sell in a supermarket or is all that food pretty much not good for them?). When she was younger I did feed her Science...

    Excessive Shedding...

    Well, the cat that would shed all year long had passed a couple years ago...as far as the cat with the problem now, I feed her Kit and Kaboodle or Deli Cat (its pretty much what she's been fed all her 3 years). She is extremely picky over food and she really seems to enjoy these 2 brands.

    Excessive Shedding...

    My 3 year old, fixed female (domestic short hair) seems to be dropping a lot of hair lately. I purchased an undercoat brush because I felt like a top coat brush wasn't getting everything. Even with the undercoat, strands of loose fur will build where I stop petting her. Should I be concered or...

    Washing used cat blanket from outside.

    My cat peed on my bathroom rug one time and I washed it the washing machine. I really didn't see what the big deal was, if people can put cloth diapers in the wash or clothes that might have urine or vomit on them (didn't mean to get really graphic) then I didn't see any harm in putting a rug...

    Do Cats Musk as Defense Mechanism?

    Whenever my husband plays with our female cat (she is fixed), she will drop a dark brown like liquid. Its not a huge puddle but rather several drops of it. This has only happened twice in the 3 years that I have had her and has happened recently. She did it today and she did it a few months ago...

    Kitty Doesn't Like New Cat Tree

    Hmm...sounds like you did all you can. Sometimes cats just aren't interested in everything you give them. I bought my cat a scratching post that had a little platform and an opening that she could hide in thinking she get a kick outta it. Only time she went near it was to get her toys from it or...

    kitten in the car...

    The second time my cat rode in the car (first time was when I found her and took her home, she was so small (only a couple months) she layed in my lap) she was 2 years old and it was a 22 hour trip from New Jersey to Louisiana. Because I was moving to LA my husband and I had my stuff all over...

    Cats and Babies...

    I been trying to do some research on behavior problems with cats and newborns but everything I find is stuff to old wives tales like "Cats steal babies breath" and so forth. Hopefully someone here can help me. Here is my problem: My husband and I are spending time with my family for the...
