Hello All, I just took in a kitten rejected by it's mama and it's crawling with fleas! I know about what to do about the house and the cat but do I need something? I'm kind of stressed... Hope to hear from someone soon...

Hello All, I've just come across a kitten in a car parked in our street and tried to get it out by putting some food near the back tire where I'd spotted it but it just got afraid and when up the tire into the car... Others had gathered to try to help but we decided to just leave for a while...

Hello All, Last night we were out having dinner and on the way back home we stumbled on a little kitten in the middle of the street. I picked him up and saw that he had severe infection on both his eyes and could not see. We looked for mama but she wasn't to be found; we waited for her but...

If a breeder is a member of MCBFA and has a "TICA outstanding cattery" and "CFA cattery of excellence" award would they be a trustworthy place to check out? Or if a cattery does not state anything like the above, is that a sign they could be back yard breeders? I don't have Maine Coon Breeders...

We'll be getting a kitty soon and although I've read the breed standards etc it's still quite confusing to determine what a kitten will be like once he grows up... We're really interested in a silver tabby boy right now and he looks very cute except to my untrained eye he seems a bit on the...

I know this is a cat forum but I also know many of you have dogs, I'm trying to find a list of breeders for Bloodhounds and/or Irish Wolfhounds in Europe on the net but so far I haven't had much luck. If anyone knows a good site to direct me I'd be very grateful!

Hello Everyone, We're corresponding with a couple of breeders for a kitten and I will have to make a choice quite soon however I haven't actually done business with a breeder before this is the first time I'm getting a cat from a breeder. We're hoping to maybe even become the first Maine Coon...

This is probably a really stupid question but what exactly are breeders refering to when they say a cat is typful or has good type?

Hello All, I have been hoping to get a cat for months now, trying to figure out what type of cat etc. I have a 1 year old Pug and will be getting a Neapolitan Mastiff in September. I have always had cats, all my life and my Pug, Fu, is an entirely new experience for me. He has not been to...

What color kittens could you get if you have: a black silver torbie with white mother and a solid blue father, a black classic torbie mother and a black silver classic tabby father, a black and white mother and a black classic tabby father? what color would the girls be and what color would...

My Pug Mr. Fu has chosen the corner of the rug (dry clean only) in our living room to be his new toilet. I actually rubbed it a few times with normal water and stain remover but the smell is still there and he keeps going to it!! I can't keep taking the thing to the dry cleaners every day...

What determines a Maine Coon kitten's color? I mean I know they come in solids, smokes, tabbies, torties, torbies all with or without white but how can we know what color the litter from say a Classic Brown Tabby and a Black Silver tabby? Does anyone have a chart or something? Thanks in...

Hello Everyone, There is a pregnant cat I keep seeing around our place. I think she'll be delivering quite soon because her belly has grown tremendously and the day before I could feel the babies kicking. Should I take her in and care for her untill the birth? Should I just leave her be? I...

How do cats get along with same sex or opposite sex flatmates?

I just wanted to know whether there were any specific breeds that do. The very big dog in question is a Neapolitan Mastiff but we'll be getting her as a puppy and the cat as a kitten so they can grow up together. However, someone mentioned to me that I should perhaps go for a large breed of cat...

Hello Everyone, We have an 11 month old male Pug and will be adopting a female Neapolitan Mastiff in a few months. We would really like to have a cat too and we have our hearts set on a Ragdoll or Siamese. What are your thoughts on how these cats are with dogs generally? Also would you say it...
