I have a wonderful cat and an equally amazing, but suddenly allergic, boyfriend. What can I do? He doesnt live with me but now that she makes him miserable he wont come over. I always have to go to his house and I spend almost every night there. It getting aggravating cause he lives 4 owns...

I just wanted to thank all of you who helped me by giving me advice on scratch posts. I got a cat tower with 2 steps for her to sit/lay on, a large, heavy base, 2 tassles haning from the top, a little ball inside 3 wooden "sticks" (so she can move it but not get it out) and the main post is a...

What do you guys think about those electronic, self-cleaning litter boxes? I dont really want one at all but my soon-to-be roommates mom keeps telling us to get one even though i clean the litter box DAILY. I guess she thinks we will slack off and our apt. will stink. Anyway what do ya'll think...

I have been saving money and today I finally went to the pet store to get a cat drinking fountain. After much debate I decided on the Petmate freshflow deluxe!!! I just want to say I LOVE it. Kinsey has already drank more than the size of her old water bowl. It used to take her a couple of days...

What about this food spa select? I read all the ingredients and it sounds really good. No one mentioned it when i asked about good foods and I was wondering if there was a reason for that. I got a small bac for Kinsey and some canned food for once or twice a day feeding. Any tips on giving the...

I remember a post about something to do with animal abuse. I think it was on IMO but I'm not sure. Anyway someone responded with a link to some kind of organization to stop animal abuse. The website that the link lead to had some really adorable t-shirts about stopping animal abuse and i want...

Kinsey bites me all the time and I dont know what to do about it since I cant spank her. I used to just blow in her face (she hates that) and it worked for a while but now it doesnt work anymore. Somtimes whan she bites me really hard and it doesnt look like she's just playing I bite her back...

Since Kiney's fur is kind of long when i let her air dry after a bath she looks kind of bad. Her fur isn't as fluffed out and pretty. Plus she shakes and shivers the entire time she is wet. So, friday after her bath i decided to blow dry her. At first I thought she was gonna have a heart attack...

I don't know all that much about really good cat food. Is Purina cat chow indoor formula a good food? How long should she be on kitten chow? (i cant find any at my pet store) And I read a thread where most of you said you read ALL the labels on cat food, what do you look for? what do you avoid...

I thought Kinsey grew out of the bed peeing thing. I washed all the bedding and treated the mattress. She didnt do it for like a week then 2 nights ago I was in bed dosing off when I feel something wet on my legs. She only does this when I'm in the bed (but i dont think she gets up on the bed...

My cat loves to watch my gerbils and they don't seem to mind. Infact, they run upto her and sniff through the glass. When I'm not home I close the door so that she doesnt have access to them. Do you think they are bothered by a predator watching them, or would they act scared? I just dont want...

Here's an idea i came up with though, i'm sure i didnt invent it. Ya'll have probably already done it, lol. But I thought I'd share it anyway. I took an old egg crate, foam mattress pad that was going to be trash and I cut a piece of it to line Kinsey's pet porter with. I think it softens the...

How am I a "young cat" I've only been here since the 13th???

I'm a new member, been here like a week. Ever time I ntry to post a thread or a reply on the IMO forum it says I'm not autherized. But only on that one. Do you have to be a member for a certain amoint of time or something?

Well I have been on here like a week but I forgot to come here and introduce myself. I just have one cat. She is a kitten, about 8 weeks old. She looks like a balinese kitten but I'm not sure what she is. I have been told her mom was a tortie point siamese (she looks like a traditional seal...

I know I am worrying for no reason but if I press on my kitty's side near the end of her ribs i feel a lump. Should I be worried? I actually think it's like one of her organs or something. She thinks i'm retarded. She will be going to the vet soon for vaccinations and a check up I will point it...

What does "feral" mean.

Here are the pics promised. Any theories on what breed she is? Long hair siamese, Balinese? I know her mother was a traditional siamese and her dad looked like her. I guess I am wondering what he was since I know she is 1/2 traditional siamese. Her brothers came out flame point with fur a...

I finally named my kitty a few days ago after playing with names for about a week. I named her Kinsey after Dr. Alfred Kinsey, the zoologist and world renound sex researcher. We studied him in psych last semester and I was completely fascinated. I wanted to be a sex therapist for like 2 weeks...

I bought my kitten from an add in the paper. The add said "long hair siamese kittens" but i don't know. They didn't have papers and she wasnt extremely expensive. How do I tell if she is a balinese or just some other pointed breed? when i bathed her she looked kind of like a modern siamese lol...
