    Running out of options with Buddy

    Have you tried grain free food?  Reason I ask is b/c one of my cats is terribly allergic to anything with grains, wet or dry.    Also have you talked to a vet about this?

    What am I doing wrong? (matts)

    I use a regular plastic "human" comb. The type that has a set of wide teeth on one end and fine on the other. It's about 7 1/2" long and 1 1/2" wide. I keep a pair of small sharp scissors handy, you can find them at Walmart for 4- 5 bucks. I try to avoid any pulling as much as possible...

    Spiders - Is It OK If Cats Eat Them?

    Now that spring is here, spiders have decided it's time to come and visit. Thankfully the cats find them. They want to play with them and eat them. The thing is, are they harmful to the cats? Can they bite the cats? More importantly, can a spider bite kill a cat? (I killed a brown recluse...

    Bugs in the litter box??

    I don't know about the bugs, but I do recommend not using bleach to clean out the litter box. Bleach is a very harsh chemical and even if you rinse it out well, it will still leave a "smell" behind. It also really changes the ph of the litter box and the cats may be reluctant to use it for a...

    Kitty Litter with Less Dust

    I use Nature's Miracle, 100% natural, it's corn based, very little dust that I have noticed (but there is some about 1%) and it's flushable.

    What is YOUR decision about this matter?

    In addition to *all* of the aforementioned punishments, for allowing Persi's image and good reputation be so tarnished, thus giving all cats a bad rep, Lee should receive the additional punishment of receiving no kisses from his wife or Persi, as well as being on kitty litter duty for a month...

    I got scratched today :( mini rant..

    I just want to reiterate the good advice you've already received. Just disinfect the scratch with rubbing alcohol, put an antibiotic cream on it, like Nerosporin, and keep it clean and you will be fine. Might I recommend that you trim his nails regularly? That will go a long ways to prevent...

    Taking my stray to the Groomer for the 1st Time

    Yes and when you get back from the groomer, just put a touch of vanilla under the chin, on top of head and at base of tail on all cats. That way, they will all smell the same and will not fight with each other. I also agree with using a comb for long haired kitties.

    Info about how wrong it is to declaw?

    Like I said, just keep pestering her. Tell her once she does that to the cat, it will change the cat's personality and how the cat feels towards her. Maybe that will help!

    She loves you and wants to be with you. Imagine if you had to sleep in a locked room away from the one you love Just keep a sticky roller by your bed to get rid of the excess hair.

    Info about how wrong it is to declaw?

    Keep pestering her! People like that make me so mad!!! She doesn't deserve to have a cat! What we can do to make declawing illegal here in the US and possibly in Canada too? Let's get a anti declawing movement started!!!!!

    Another grooming problem...

    Absolutely! In fact I did that for quite some time, keep another comb near him to keep him distracted. Sometimes we have to be sneaky! I also talk to my cats quite a bit and most of the time when I tell them "Ok now, No wiggling, No wiggling" they do tend to keep still including when I trim...
