The point I was trying to make with the toilet story is that there are plenty of things that are dirtier than we could ever imagine. As a result, I choose to make indoor-only cats the least of my worries. True, you can put toilet seats down and put a cap on the toothbrush, but how many people...

I recently read that spray from the toilet flushing can travel up to 20'. This means that most things in our bathrooms, including our toothbrushes, are probably covered with whatever's in our toilets (as scary as that is, it sounds totally believable to me)... Yet we all brush our teeth and...

I wrap my cats in a towel quite tightly, allowing only one paw to hang out at a time, and have my husband hold as I clip. I also put a can of tuna where the cat can easily see it and smell it. So far I have had no problems... We got our cats when they were 6 months old and it didn't look like...

I have a question about nutritional supplements and whether anyone here uses them? The reason I am asking is this: one of our two cats is picky and won't eat much. She's not on the healthiest diet right now but we can't seem to switch her over. The more foods I try the less hope I have. But...

Thank you, I just wanted to make sure it wasn't serious. It doesn't look like he's in pain, he's running around like crazy right now... Hopefully it is just a bite or something else that can be easily treated.

Hey guys and gals, I was hoping someone here could help me out with my cat. I can't take him to the vet today since it's Sunday and I don't know if I'll be able to get him in until next Saturday so... I wanted to see if I could get some answers before then. He has some crust/scabbing on his...

Zin is the grey male and Anise is the black female. He's the gentle giant and she's the little trouble-maker. She climbs everywhere, be it furniture or people, and loves grooming my husband (head, toes, between the fingers). He's very ticklish so it's a lot of fun to watch.

I posted a few pictures of my two new kittens in the New Cat on the Block forum and now I have more so... here they are:

My parents have a rolling litterbox that I picked out for our cat. It seemed pretty big to me. It's good if you want to do a quick sift and you're in a rush but I used to scoop it by hand whenever I could to make sure I got everything. The one main problem I have with the litter box is...

When I was still living with my parents, we had one cat, Roxanne. My father thought she was getting lonely so he went out and got two kitten playmates for her. She didn't appreaciate as much as he thought she might and acted the same way your cat is acting right now. My dad went out and...

I guess my household is an anomaly because whenever my male kitten goes to the bathroom I can hear him dig but I smell nothing. Whenever his sister goes, it's horrible. I don't know what to do about it...they're the same age and eat the same food. I'm having dreams about inventing odor free...

thank you everyone for the welcome...the boy is definitely huuuuge, he's bigger than any of the full-grown cats i've ever lived with. they're also very smelly...so i think i'm going to go look through some more litter threads.

This is one of the reasons why I'm keeping my two new cat indoors (or, at least, trying to) but Roxanne (my parents' cat) just wouldn't be happy to stay at home. I still worry about her around Halloween, since she's pretty much all black and I know some people love to hate black cats. That's...

Hey guys, My husband and I just got two 5-month-old kittens and we decided to register here because we figured this would be the best place for questions. This is Anise: And this is Zin(adine): He's about twice as big as his sister but rarely meows and is the epitome of a scaredy cat...

We have two cats and are using Tidy Cats Multiple Cats but it doesn't seem to be working on the odor very well. I think maybe it's because they're really smelly... I know my parents use Dr Elsey's cat litter because their outdoor cat refuses to use anything else, especially if it's scented. I...

mooficat - thank you for the welcome. I will post pictures as soon as I get them up online. My parent's have an outdoor cat as well and the reason she goes outdoors is that we just couldn't keep her inside after we adopted her. It's really wonderful that way because she rarely stinks up the...

My husband and I just adopted two littermates and they are now starting to shed their initial shyness. They got into the bedroom and the bathroom and are now trying to explore the final frontier that lies behind the front door to our apartment. We do have a "secure" door that opens up onto the...
