    Fat kitten after being fixed

    I have 4 kittens which were ferals that I took in. I had all 4 spayed/neutered and one of the four, a female, has gained a ton of weight. The other three, two males and a female, have stayed thin. She doesn't seem to eat more than the others so I am concerned it may be something else. I would...

    Looking for suggestions on names for these two. They have some of the softest coats I have ever felt. Maybe it is because they are older than what I have had in the past and healthier, but they are extremely soft and smooth. I am working on socializing them. They aren't feral but they...

    Scooting when excited?

    I did a search but it seems all the posts on scooting had more to do with bowel movements. My female cat Rogue who also likes to pretend spray will sometimes get excited/nervous when I am on the couch and talking to her. She will pace and rub on the couch as I pet her and talk. Occasionally she...
