    Cat door installation

    We've still not gotten the cat flap installed. We've been considering a new door anyway so it's kinda been put off. Petra will still use the floor but we're thinking the issue is deeper than originally thought. She'll get in there and do #1 then step right out and do #2. I believe she has some...

    I need reassurance.

    We had a war break out between our two youngest cats that were fine with each other up until then. After the hostilities began Lela (the youngest) would get under the dresser and not come out. She'd eat under there and use the bathroom under there as well. She would come out if we were in there...

    Cat door installation

    We have 4 cats that live inside w/ us. Since we aren't home 'cept in the evenings our cat boxes go several hours w/out being cleaned out. Petra, our oldest cat, is picky about who she shares a cat box with and has taken to using the floor outside and around the box. This spring while it was nice...

    My cat is "clicking"

    I hate to add a spin to the "it's cute" comments, but from what I've read what they are doing is practicing their "killing bite". In the cats mind it's got the bird, or more often in my case the squirrel, in it's mouth. The chattering/quick movement of the mouth is what it would do to sever the...

    problem with chewing wires

    This sounds like it may be mean, but so would letting the cat get zapped. You might be able to wrap some double sided tape on the wire and put some paprika or other pepper. That's what I've been thinking about doing to a kitten that won't stay out of the garbage. Getting a big container of cheap...

    What is your opinion of this vet???

    I agree, sounds like she shouldn't be in the business. I think too many vets don't know what they are doing. They get away with it because their patients can't complain. Which is why it is important to do a little research before picking a vet. We live in a small town where at one time we only...

    Multi cat household with multi problems

    I think we currently have four, so we are one short of the +1 rule that was mentioned. Do you think the agression towards Leela is because she has not been spayed? I was (for some reason) under the impression that you would only get agression between two cats that had not been fixed. And I...

    Multi cat household with multi problems

    Ok, well I wish I had waited for your response before acting. We closed Leela up in the bathroom and Connie in the office last night and we barely slept a wink, and the bathroom carpet is now ruined. Leela is the only cat that is not fixed. We just had Cleo fixed a few weeks ago. Petra has been...

    Multi cat household with multi problems

    (Sorry for the long post) I have been looking around at some of the behavioral posts and I don't see any that address my issue(s). There are probably posts that address each issue I am having, but I didn't know if what I should do would change considering the other issues I'm having. A little...
