Hi guys! I really apologize for my lack of activity. It's jsut been hectic. I'll definitely do my best to start back up again! Anyway. Zoey is doing swell, but this isn't about here. On Monday mornin I heard a kittie wailing from our... Guess what? Oil pit! It's just a big hole in the...

When we lived on a ranch back in Texas, we had about a dozen cats. We never had a problem with population, and therefore never spayed nor neutered our cats. We lived 45 minutes from the nearest (tiny population, about 500 people) town and 3 hours from a big town, so there was never any problem...

I was in Wal-Mart this afternoon, and went to the pet isle to purchase cat litter and some cat food and a new scoop (I broke mine ) There was a lady in one of the isles with 8 huge bags of Meow Mix Seafood Medly dry food and 4 backs of Purina Kitten Chow. There was also a couple cans of...

Zoey has never had the urge to scratch, not until recently. She has started scratching our office chairs and my mattress! I'm not concerned about the latter, the junky old thing I plan on replacing, though I still reprimand her for it because if I get a nice one in the future, scratching will be...

Zoey needs a cat scratcher. Only recently has she developed the need to scratch, and I know I shouldn't have put this off for so long. For about 2 weeks it's been getting progressively more obvious. So we just got a new house moved in onto the ranch to have a cowboy move in. There was some...

Sorry I haven't been on in so long guys! I miss everybody and plan on getting back into my regular TCS routing soon! Zoey has always been fiesty; she has an attitude, sass, spunk, and becomes aggressive sometimes. For example: I'll just be walking through the house and Zoey will start...

My brother is really into Harry Potter... He even moderated a really popular HP discussion forum for a long while. So we're taking him in to get the book (I can't believe we're staying up till after MIDNIGHT just for the book... ) and see the movie. I myself like the movies (not the books...

When I first started feeding Zoey her wet food, I just fed her the pate/loaf style. Natural Life, Nutro, IAMS & Friskies. Then I started feeding her the cuts in gravy and broth. Friskies, Fancy Feast, Meow Mix. Now she doesn't want to eat the "healthy" stuff, i.e the NL & Nutro. Is that okay? I...

(Sorry I haven't been on much ya'll, it's been pretty wild around here... ) So Zoey has just recently began a terrible habit that we definitely do not want her to keep! We have this really really nice oak 4x8 dining room table, we're talking alot of money here. My parents have wanted this...

This is so sweet, it just might make you cry... We were in Wal-Mart the other day and Mom was at the photo department so I snuck on over to the pet isle, just because I love to look around there... An elderly lady, probably around 70, wandered into the isle I was in with a basket with...

So I was just having a conversation with my Mom about expenses and the pay of average jobs today in America and the cost of day-to-day living. So I thought I would post a topic here about it. What are your expenses for day to day living? i.e. rent, insurance, car payments, shopping (we're...

I am sooooo happy! I think Zoey has bonded with me! I've been waiting for her to, you know, for her to start showing behaviour that she has bonded with me, and that she loves me. She has recently done this! Whenever she wants to nap, she'll come looking for me!!! And she jumps in my lap to...

Does your kitty go on "Great Bug Hunts"? Zoey does. Every. Single. Night. It really is funny! We turn out all the lights in the house at night, due to the moths and these weird little flying wasp-looking bugs, that don't sting. It used to be really bad here... like in the bunkhouse, after...

I thought that when you acquired 300 posts, you graduated from "Adult Cat" to "Alpha Cat"? I have 331 and yet I am still an "Adult Cat"? Why haven't I been promoted to alpha? Is it because I'm a minor? I don't think that because I'm 13 I shouldn't be allowed to progress in my rank. Anybody know...

I live on a ranch, isolated from town by 30 miles of highway and dirt road. We have approximately 30 cats; 10 are tame, including this years kittens from the docile adults, excluding the tame kittens we gave away. Though I have never cuddled, or even touched, the rest of the ferals, almost all...

Mom wasn't keen on us having an indoor cat in the first place. She had one twenty years ago, Winston, and he was such a fantastic cat, but after that, she didn't want another indoor cat. Then Zoey came along. As some of you know, I live on a ranch, and we have NO white cats, because they are so...

Sorry for the bundle of threads I have been putting up lately! I've just recently become very interested in feline nutrition, and would like to hear reviews and opinions. I feed Nutro because it's the best dry food I have available to me even remotely locally. I do so wish I had a larger...

Am considering ordering a higher-quality food for Zoey. She is on Nutro Natural Choice Indoor Kitten, and I love the availability of this and I think it's a great food for the price. It's the highest quality dry available to me locally. But I have dug up some brands that appear to be really good...

Good Morning TCS!!! Morning ya'll! Thought it'd be neat if I started posting 3 little topics on a morning thread. The first is.... *drumroll* Word Of The Day: taint - \\t-AY-nt\\ - verb 1 : to contaminate morally : corrupt 2 : to affect with putrefaction : spoil 3 : to touch or affect...

Have been wanting to ask this and it keeps slipping my mind... Do you bathe your cat(s)? If so, how often? What do you bathe them in? Do you use shampoo? If so, what kind? How does your cat respond to the bath? I want to bathe Zoey so that she will be comfortable with it in case she...
