Thanks for your replys.. I finally saw physical evidence of a flee (jumped on my face.. UGH) so I "frontlined" my girl and saw just now my other cat has two scabs under her collar... so ill treat her as well.. time to clean like crazy and then see what happens Ive always treated them in the...
Hi, One of my two female cats (3 years old) has small pimple-like scabs on her forehead, just on the outside front of her ears, under her coller, and around her armpits. No where else. The ones around her armpits can be a bit bigger and should you pull the hair near the scab then a clump of hair...
Im so glad she is eating, but one piece of advice...
Move the food and water away from the litter box!
Also, try measuring out her food and before you give her more measure it again to see just how much she is eating. I would also suggest giving her a feeding place where she has a good view...
Hi,
I have no idea if it can be found in the US but we have an environmentaly friendly sand called Majsan. Its a bi-product of the woods-industry. Not sure in the translation if its from processing lumber or from the paper industry. Its very fine sand which my cats love and dust free- which my...
Hi,
Ive got sisters from the same litter. One is a tiny little dainty eater, the other a dog. She'll eat till shes sick and then eat some more. What ive dont is created two seperate stations for them. Both in the kitchen but one of them we can see from the living room. They both get breakfast...
Oh my god, too funny!!! Your Skittles is just like my Tipper and they even look alike! She does everything like a dog, sigh even eats like one, and LOVES the belly rubs. Shes well known for standing on her back feet to get recognized and loves to play fetch. I swould swear shes got canine...
My grey tiger think water is fascinating until shes wet.. my little black devil LOVES water. I havent had a bath alone in almost two years. This fall though i saw the most unusual site. We had two weeks of pouring rain in, oh around October and Proffesorn (the black) was outside. I happened to...
Proffesorn is a bed hog! Often she stretches out with her paws UNDER my husband and her head UNDER me. Shes done this since she was a kitten. Move her and before you can fall back asleep shes wiggled her head back under you. I think you have no worries!

Hi,
Twice now in the last 6 months or so one of my girls has done a most peculiar thing...
The first time she was standing on her cat tree and i was scrathing the base of her tail. She was really loving it and then suddenly sprayed a STRONG smelling brown sticky substance. She was as shocked...
Hi,
Just a thought.. maybe she is naturally small? I have an almost 2 year old that is just around 2kg. and a friend of mine has a 5 year old that is not over 1.5kg. Absolutly tiny.. but fierce! Both of them are females.

Hi,
My cats arent bothered much even when it is minus degrees F they go out for a few minutes and then come in content for several hours. When its about15F or more they go out several hours at a time. They find some place sheltered i assume. You just have to keep an eye out for them and be...
Well.. we just had our first real cat fight... I think Tipper came out on top which is impressive.. two against one. Talk about flying hair clumps! Surprisingly no bleeding from the Rexs' considering it was their "hair" flying the most. Anyone who knows what a rex is.. knows they really dont...
I have a chatty kitty, which can be annoying when you dont know why. Usually she has a reason.. food or wanting to go out.. closed doors especially! She hates it when a door is closed. My suggestion for a suitable adopter would be an older person, perhaps someone alone. My boyfriend's...
Hi,
I think Larke had the best suggestion in his/her first post. When you are not home allow Liza to be closed in her own room and when you come home and she wants out, close in Zephyr. Another suggestion would be (assuming she is an indoor cat) cut her nails down as much as possible. Front...
My little black girl watches TV and has the annoying habit of standing up with her front paws on the DVD player.. which of course turns it on... or off depending. However, I am a little suspect if its the TV show shes interested in... or the static. She loves to pat the TV screen and you can...
Hi,
I cant really say what i think about the discussion between older cats being subjected to kittens. However, my experience has been that slow and supervised introduction is best and watch out for one typical kitten behavior! They will see your older cat as a new play partner and comes...
Hi,
I have an unusual situation here. I am taking care of two male Cornish Rex cats, brothers, for three weeks. I have two female "house cats" ,sisters, of a similar age to the Rexs'. The boys have been here two weeks of the three. Right from the beginning one of my females-Professorn- took...
Sometimes the simplest things are the answer... papertowel rolls, paperbags, and a string dragged around the house are things my lazy, once chubby kitty loves when nothing else works.
Do you free feed? Start interval feeding and find a brand that has dry food "for inddor cats with a tendency...
Set out an announcement in the newspaper and posters around town. To make sure that they go to a good home list a few requirements, a small sum or money you will have for them and that you will be checking up on how they are doing at different intervals of time.
