We converted a bedroom into a cat room. They have two small "trees" in front of the Windows, a couple of hidey beds, scratchers and a fountain. The closet is good sized and we have four litter boxes in it. The problem is that it's carpeted and other than the obvious pain of having litter on...

Hello, I am fostering a Momma and three babies. The babies are three weeks old as of yesterday. They had a rough start but are doing OK now. I took them to the vet last week after one passed away. The vet said that the babies looked good and Momma has enough milk but she's not cleaning them well...

After years of dealing with Abby's weight (she would lose a few pounds on a new food then gain it back), and all the recalls cat food has had I finally decided to make the switch. I bought a bag of the Primal chicken and salmon formula and a bag of the Stella and Chewys freeze dried awhile ago...

Not totally just a little.:) you know when you're sick and you go online and suddenly you have every aweful disease known to man? That's what its like for me when my cats are sick. :( I feel bad I only seem to post when I have a problem. Long story short there is an outdoor cat here that...

Hello, I just wanted to post a quick update on the introduction of Buddy and Abby. I posted about a month and a half ago because things weren't going well. They were not getting along and I thought it would never work. I am happy to report that after we went back and started all over, re-did...

Sorry in advance for the long post. My husband and I took in a stray cat about a month ago. We have a resident cat that is about 5 years old and she's never been around other cats. The new cat spent the first two weeks in our spare room in the basement. They did see each other a couple of...

Hello, my husband and I saw a stray cat last weekend when we were walking a friendâ€8482s dog. He (we think he's a he) is very friendly and followed us. My friend says that he has seen the cat several times. I live in a townhouse complex and people let their cats out all the time and also dump...

He really is the best. I posted earlier in Caring for strays and Ferals about a kitten that showed up yesterday. Dh and I were trying to figure out what to do with her and he said, you can't keep her because it will mess up your plans. Meaning that the cat I want from my Vet's that I have to...

Yesterday afternoon a half starved Siamese kitten showed up at my door. I think she's a girl - no boy bits and she's a torti. I fed her some wet yesterday because she was starving. She stayed outside our apartment last night (and it rained really hard - we share a covered porch with our...

Hi all, I will be putting up our brand new tree today (artificial) and I was wondering about garland. I always put some on my tree but I'm wondering if it's safe with Abby. This is her second Christmas with us but it's her first with a big tree - our tree stand broke last year and I couldn't...

This is probably silly but my DH was wondering about the new kitty we may be getting. He was a stray that was brought in to my vet with a wound to his face. The vet tech said it was abscessed and bloody when he came in (heâ€8482s fine now). She said he must have been someoneâ€8482s pet because...

No not a cake made from snakes. I am making my nephew a cake shaped like a snake for his birthday. I was going to cover it with fondant and paint the colors on. Has anyone here painted on Fondant? I have covered cakes with it and used it for decorating (flowers, bows etc.) but never painted...

I went to a new vet yesterday (I posted about it in Health & Nutrition) and they have a few cats for adoption. There is one boy that I LOVED; he was a stray that was brought in because he had a wound to his face (it's all better now and the fur is starting to grow back). He is mostly white with...

I went to a new vet yesterday, it's a catâ€8482s only clinic and I thought I'd give it a try. I took Abby in because even though we've cut down on her food and started feeding her better quality food she hasn't lost any weight. She has not gained any weight in a year so the vet said that was a...

Hi I have a few questions about Paypal. I have never used it so I don't know much about it. How does it work exactly? Is it safe? Do you like it? Is there anything I should know before I sign up? Thanks in advance!

Abby has not been able to poop today and she only peed a little. I didn't clean her box yesterday but when I cleaned it today it looks like she has pooped, but small amounts (several of them but small). I have found three little pea sized "balls" of soft poop with mucous in them and she has a...

Abby has developed a nasty new habit. She has started scratching our walls (think nails on a chaulkboard). Now a couple of months ago this would have been annoying but not such a big deal, but now it's huge. We just spent a small fortune having our house repainted and now she is scratching...

Hi, I will be relocating soon (we're moving a thousand miles) so I made an appointment to get Abby microchipped but I have a couple of questions. My vet uses Home Again, are they a good Company? I went to their website and it looks like they offer a lot of services but I'm not sure if the...

Abby had to go to the vet last week because she was scooting and having a hard time pooping. It turns out her anal glands were full so he had to express them (not fun - I felt like such a bad Mommy while he was doing it. Weeeeell it turns out she's a tad overweight... She weighs 14 pounds. So...

I'm not sure what I've gotten myself into. I went to dinner this week with a couple of ladies I used to work with and one of them was talking about the female cat (1 1/2 yrs old) that she had but wanted to get rid of because suprise suprise it's declawed and having litter box problems!!!!! I...
