In the last month or two, my cat has began pooping in the bathtub. At first, it was only about a once or week. Now, it happens daily. She is completely healthy. Nothing has changed. Same litter box, same litter, same everything. I am becoming so frustrated! How can I stop this?? If the...

So I know it's a few weeks early.. but does anyone have any suggestions to keep my cat out and away from the Christmas tree? Water spray bottles have little effect on her.. she actually likes water. Since I don't get a chance to check in very often- thanks in advance!

Hi, I have a kitten who I have had for about 3 months or so now. She is probably 5-6 months old. She is the BEST kitten (s traveling, loves our dogs, is best friends with a dog) however she is HORRIBLE about going to sleep at night! As soon as the lights go off and we get into bed she goes...

When I got my kitten a week ago, she was used to eating Purina Kitten Chow. Because of this, I just continued giving her it. Is this a good food? Should I switch to something better? Is the adult food equally good? What's the best type or is it just a matter of preference?

The vet I will be taking my new kitten to only gives two rounds of FVRCP. Is that OK? I have found that most vets give/recommend three rounds. Also, can the rabies shot be given at the same time as the 2nd (and final) FVRCP shot? If I do it separately, the vet charges a $38 fee in addition to...

I'm looking to get the best kitten food for my kitten. Currently, the foster is feeding Purina Kitten Chow, but I have a feeling it's not the best (as Purina isn't a very good brand of dog food). I was thinking about possibly either "Kitten Soul" or Felidae? How are those? (Price isn't an issue.)

owned by members on this forum? I can understand if someone is a responsible breeder with purebred cats, but it seems like a lot of people have standard ol' cats that are pregnant. Aren't there enough kittens/cats in shelters? Not to push any buttons, but I would except more from people who...

I was thinking about getting something to contain my kittens (for example, when I first get them and they are getting acclimated to the new environment, the dogs, etc.). Would a dog exercise pen work or would they just climb out/hop? Anyone use this? Any suggestions?

Anyone know of any online sources for reasonably priced interactive toys? I am especially looking for one of the wooden boxes that has all the holes in it and you can put toys in it, but I can't find one at a reasonable cost. I'd especially looking for that looks good so I can leave it out all...

I'm thinking about adopting a Hemingway (polydactyl, I believe) kitten. Are there any health problems associated with this condition? Do they ever have any problems getting around, jumping, etc? She has 7 toes on each front paw and 4 on each of the back! So cute! Thanks!

I bought a carrier from this website, Sheraton Luxuries. Has anyone bought from them before? If so, how did you like it and their service? I guess I should have asked these questions beforehand. http://www.sheratonluxuries.com/estore/catcarriert.html

Anyone know of any holistic and natural flea remedies for cats? I am going to start adding lavender (or another essential oil) into their shampoo in addition to using it in a spray (basically water and a few drops of essential oil. Can I use these methods on a kitten? I've read a few sites that...

How do you prevent your dogs from eating the cat's food (and messing with the litter box) and vice-versa? I have two yorkshire terriers who have been known to LOVE my mom's cat's food, so I'm sure that'll be a problem with the new kitten's food. Also, with the litter box, I'm sure they will...

I am thinking about getting a adopting a kitten from a local animal shelter in about a month or so. How important is it to quarantine from other pets? Someone suggested that I should do so, as sometime shelter kittens have resp. infections. Is this common? Now, I'm so afraid my two dogs will...

Hi, Soon, I will be getting a kitten. She has had her first set of shots. How many more will she get? Thanks, Kyle

Hi, I am new here and possibility thinking about getting a kitten sometime in the new month or so. Right now, I'm just researching everything as I want everything to work out. I also have two yorkshire terriers and several fish (bettas and goldfish). So again, hello everyone!

Hi, First of, I'm new here! I am thinking about possibly adopting a cat. Does anyone here regularly travel with their cat? I would love a cat, but the only thing is, I travel pretty frequently. I'd say about 10 times a year.. from about 2 or 3 day trips to week long trips. I am college...
