I am looking for pictures of cats from kittenhood to adulthood. Why? I want to see how cats change through the years and get an idea of what my little guy will look like when he gets older! If you have a timeline of pics please post! thanks!

I have a new kitten (12 weeks old) and he has had a series of issues since I got him from a rescue organization. First off, he had/has coccidia treated with albon but still had bloating, diarrhea, and has despite repeat fecal occult which was negative for coccidia. He has a possible urinary...

I posted about this before but the problem is still present. My cat (3 mo old male) is peeing on my bed. When he first peed, the litterbox in my room was pretty dirty. But then he peed again even when it was clean. Then, more. Now my bed reeks of pee and I am considering what my plan should be...

any veggies around here? I am a vegetarian, primarily because of ethical reasons. If I value my cats and don't want them to suffer, i also should extend this to other animals. Any others around here and what are your reasons? Ever tried Quorn? it's not bad stuff!!

The owner was elderly and whose skin didn't heal properly from the scratches? Softclaws didn't work. The owner has AIDS or is in other ways immunocompromised and loves the cat but cannot keep it with claws due to risk of infection. The cat is attacking small children The cat is very...

I am a bit hesitant to feed my cats the "premium" brands such as Natural Choice because they are not backed by AAFCO feeding trials. Instead, they have an in-house quality assurance similar to AAFCO. With major brands such as science diet there is at least the assurance that it meets these...

hi! this is a very broad question but I am wondering if you have information on how to keep my cats healthy. Ie, what kind of vaccinations should they get? How often should I do wellness checks? what kind of food to feed? any other advice on keeping them happy and healthy?

As a disclaimer, I realize that most rescue organizations are great. And despite flaws, most workers do their best. however, I had an experience with a rescue organization that left a bad taste in my mouth. Long story short, I wanted a new kitty and I contacted the woman in charge off of...

does anyone have insurance on their cats? I am thinking of going thru petinsurance.com because of my experience with Twinkie (paid over 1200 in vet bills) and am wondering if this (or others) are worthwhile. Please share experiences. thank you!

I was sitting there and so was my BF and we didn't even see her do it. He completely urinated ALL OVER my 200 dollar comforter that I just bought! How do I stop this from ever happening again? There are 2 litterboxes, 1 cat that was here before Cheeto came and they have been playing. and now...

I went to a local vet about a year ago (11/05) when Twinkie was having a bout of lethargy, anorexia, weight loss, lack of grooming and was hiding under the bed. I was really concerned and the vet (an older guy, probably 60ish) said it was a hairball. He told me to give Twinks cat lax and be on...

I lost my dear cat to feline leukemia. He died a peaceful death and I am so sad I can't properly articulate it. However, I am considering getting another cat and it's only been 5 days since he passed. I feel guilty for this and wonder what your opinions are?

My cat was a stray found by some college kids. She went from dorm to dorm and was eventually let outside. My question is, does she remember this and does it make her more appreciative of having a home? or am I reading too much into this? How does being a stray affect a cat's personality?

I love my brand new little tabby cat. She's 7 months old and I got her from a college kid. She had been passed around from dorm to dorm because people kept getting caught with her and she had no permanent home. I wanted to take her in because I heard she was really sweet and affectionate and I...

I have one cat who is 2 years old and who I declawed and regretted doing so. He had a complication where the former nail site was infected. I felt horrible doing this to him. Now, I have a brand new 6 month old kitten. She is pretty dosile and not very aggressive. I am not sure whether I...
