    Incessant meowing...

    So I have a question. I used to have 2 cats, Spock and Saki. They've been together since kittenhood. A few weeks ago, we had to give Spock up. He had some issues that we couldn't deal with. He really needed to be an outdoor/indoor cat, so we gave him to a friend that had a better place for him...

    Cat hair! Yay!

    Okay, not so "yay". So what's a good solution for keeping cat hair off the furniture? I mean, besides keeping the CATS off. Any thoughts?

    Mr. Spock... pooping again!

    Okay so, I need some help. I've read just about all I can read here on litter-box issues and all that. I'm at my wit's end really. My husband and I love Mr. Spock so much. He was our first baby. But no matter what I do, he keeps pooping BESIDE the litter box (thank goodness we have tile floors...

    Kitty Emergency... maybe....

    Okay so, a few minutes ago, I heard my two cats playing with something on the floor. I looked over and Spock had a silica gel package in his mouth!!!! I ran over there and got it before he chewed it, but the package was wet, and there were little teeth marks in it. I don't think they punctured...

    Ewww! Kitty Breath!

    Okay so here's a typical night for me: I get all comfy in bed with the hubby, and all four kitties at one time or another, jump on the bed to cuddle with us. Domino, one of our youngest, gets all up in my face and wants to purr and lick. Aww, so sweet, right? WRONG. He's got horrible breath! I...

    Kitty Injury

    Okay, so somehow my kitten, Domino, has injured his nose. I'm not sure how it happened, but it's scabbing up now. It kind of looks like a burn of some sort like he stuck his nose in a candle or something. I'm just wondering... is there anything I can do for that? Could I put anything like...

    Kittens and worms... ?

    I've heard kittens are born with worms. Is this true? I have two kittens, both about 4 months old. They get along great with my two older cats. My concern is, though they've both been examined when I first got them, I haven't yet had a chance to get them dewormed. My husband recently had an...

    Food & Litter

    Okay so I have some questions... How is Purina in terms of healthy natural food for the kitties? I've heard it has the least amount of preservatives and artificial junk, but I'd like some opinions. Also, how is Fresh Step clumping litter in terms of safeness? I know it works very well, and my...

    Cat Poo...

    What are my options on disposing of the stuff? I can't go to the dump every day, and it does pile up if you don't take care of it, of course. I have 4 cats, so I have to be very precise and clean with them. What do YOU do with your kitty poo? Some suggestions/stories would be nice. Thanks.

    So... how DO you discipline a cat?

    I know what NOT to do. But what DO I do? The reason I'm asking this is because of what happened about ten minutes ago... So I'm sitting in bed doing crossword puzzles (like I often do around this time). I had a cup of milk sitting beside me on the table. My fur-ball gray tabby named Mr. Spock...

    Water Issues...

    My husband and I were wondering... why do our cats like to drink water anywhere EXCEPT their water bowls? I mean, they'll drink out of those too, but if they find another water source, such as a water glass in the sink, the bathtub after a bath, the shower after a shower, or (heaven forbid!) the...

    Just Curious... (Discipline issues)

    Hi everyone! I've asked a few questions on here before, and I love the site, so I decided to ask something I've been wondering about to get your take on it. When we first got our first kitty, Spock, he was wonderful, but always bit us in a playful way. It was playful for him, but not us...

    Kitty is scared to death! :(

    My husband and I just adopted a beautiful female orange tabby kitten (only 5% are female) and named her Vanilla. She was 11 weeks old when we got her. She was the sweetest, most loving kitten when we adopted her. She got along with the other two cats perfectly after the initial introductions...

    Why Does My Cat Love Me So Much? ...

    My kitten, Saki, is 6 months old. His Mom was Himalayan and we think his father was a tabby... therefore, he's a tabby with a smooshed face (very cute!). My question is this: Why does he love me so much? He comes to me ONLY. My husband will try to hold him, and he'll tolerate it, but if I'm in...

    New kitty...

    Hi everyone! My husband and I adopted a grey tabby manx about 7 weeks ago. He's now about 14 weeks old (We named him Spock ). We wanted to get two at the same time, but we saw him and fell in love with him, and the second kitten wasn't old enough to have yet. Anyway, we brought home the second...
