    to feed on demand or not?

    I'm in a connundrum about Sophie's eating habits. I'm not sure if I should measure her food out all carefully like the bag says (which I don't really have time for) or feed her when she asks to be fed? She's almost full grown and soon will be moving off kitten food onto a the adult variety. Advice?

    Names

    rebel kitty!!

    Sophie's figured out how to open the closet doors and especially likes getting into the big storage closet. She knows she's not supposed the be there and I'm worried 'cause there's so much big heavy stuff packed in there that she might get trapped or something could fall on her and seriously...

    Cat Dreams

    I know this is going to sound weird, but Sophie had a bad night last night; I'm sure she had a nightmare, she was crying, whimpering and shaking so much in her sleep that I had to wake her up and reassure her then she was fine. Has any body else noticed this in their cats? Do cats dream?

    dumping food dishes over!!

    Sophie keeps upending her food and water dishes and driving me crazy! I tried getting a nonslip mat to put under them so she couldn't move them but that's just made things worse. Just a few minutes I went out and found food and water everywhere, dishes turned over, and the rubber mat on top of...

    Kitty Collars

    Help! I went out and bought a kitty collar for Sophie because she wants to venture outside on the balcony and even that far I want to make sure she has a name tag on. Anyway, I bought the nicest most expensive one I get, brown and red leopard spots to blend in with her beautiful calico markings...

    Okay fingers crossed everybody that I get these two uploaded okay. The first one is a too-cute shot of her in the little kitten bed I made for her which she has now outgrown just a wee bit (I'm still looking for the exact perfect lowsided wicker basket!). The second photo is her "femme fatale"...

    Sophie's got the sniffles

    My poor baby's come down with a wee cold; she keeps sneezing and has a bit of runny nose. Do you think this warrants a visit to the vet or is this something to worry about or does she just need rest and TLC? Any advice for the "new mom" here would be greatly appreciated!
