My boys know their names and each other's... Freddy winds up responding to Fred or Frederick more than Freddy lol and he pretty much responds when he wants to, and won't typically respond to Seamus. Seamus responds to his name whenever I call it, he also responds when I call Fred, but in a...

It's funny I just popped on here seeking advice on the same exact problem... Fred went yesterday, had vaccinations and a checkup, came home, was fine for a while, then the hissing began, and it's now hissing, spitting, swatting, and it seems to happen anytime he sniffs near the injection spot...

Sounds like the problem I was having. My older boy is three and the kitten is 5 months old, and they play rough, and the little one was about 6-7 weeks old when they first were allowed together. As I watched Freddy (the baby) yell when they played, I learned Freddy was always the instigator...

I did not know that, I will be reading up on that more, the site I found just said spray a little peppermint oil on the tree. It isn't aromatherapy oils or anything like that, I got it in the baking section at AC Moore.

I just put a Christmas tree up for the first time since I've been on my own. Neither has ever seen a Christmas tree. Seamus is 3 and totally uninterested in the thing, Freddy, being a 5 month old kitten and rambunctious to begin with, immediately jumped in yesterday as soon as I had it set up...

He reminds me of my Freddy in pictures. We found him in August, followed my fiancee works in a warehouse, found her and followed her around work all day he had to come home. If the color thing holds true, Fred is a cuddlebug, a purrmonster, loves to be close to his brother or to us, LOVES...

For a while Seamus went without anything, and then I put a collar on him and he loved it... he has a few now and we change back and forth to fit the season, etc. He looks naked without it lol. When Freddy came home I got him a kitten collar, but he's growing so fast these days I took it off...

Seamus - 1. Because he is always at the door ready to greet me when I come in, and always at the door wishing I won't go when I leave. 2. Because he prances to me when I call his name 3. Because he gives me kisses on command, even if he's not in the mood to be cute 4. Because he is so...

I feed my boys a variety of wet foods, and I buy the kitten formula cans for Freddy and the adult for Seamus, but what always winds up happening is that Freddy will see what Seamus is eating and go into his bowl, and Seamus will eat the kitten food because he got interrupted from his meal. It's...

I trimmed my 6 week old's nails the other day, the only thing was it was very tough to see the quick of the nail so I just took the very tip off so it's a little less sharp.

I'm with you! Seamus and Freddy both have fleas, though *knock on wood* the house isn't bad. My friend's house is infested and Freddy was found in a warehouse, so that's how I'm thinking they got here. We all went to the vet today. The vet gave the boys a pill called Capstar, and within a...

Thank you for all the advice and well wishes. Today the two were playing very nicely through the gate when I got home, so I decided to let them interact, and the opposite of what I had originally anticipated happened! Little Freddy is the one chasing big boy Seamus around! Freddy is a little...

I haven't stuck to the program exactly... I've rearranged things so Freddy has the spare room and I can more closely monitor both of them as it is off the living room. I let them interact through a child gate... they both are capable of getting over it so I rigged it with a piece of cardboard...

Thanks for the links and the advice so far We took Freddy to the vet, he cleared, except for some fleas, which I think my SO brought in from her parents house, so we're dealing with that from the two cats... he is estimated at 5 weeks old... Since Seamus had the run of the house except the...

My SO found a cat at work, little teeny thing, and they were attached all day so I told her to bring it home. I have him (I think) confined to the bathroom right now, and Seamus has run of the rest of the house, he's a little curious about what's behind the door, but I need to make sure this...

I noticed last week that Seamus's lower belly has no hair on it. I got a good look today when he actually let me touch his belly and his belly is very pink. What would cause him to lose his hair?? What can I do to help him?? Background Info.. He's about 3, he's been eating the same food for...

You know, I can't remember if his head was moving... it wasn't his 'normal' I'm gonna puke reaction... on the rare occasion he does puke, he goes to a specific spot and just heaves until it comes out, no wheezing... all I kept saying to him was 'please vomit' and it looked like there was hair in...

This evening Seamus and I were sitting on the couch and I was eating my dinner, and Seamus started wheezing like he couldn't catch his breath... he did this for about 15 seconds, which felt like an eternity as I tried to keep myself from completely panicking, and then he puked a little bit of...

I dealt with tapeworm and giardia here. I saw the tapeworms and called the vet and once I said vomiting and loose stool they had me drop off a stool sample they tested for giardia. It cleared up with medication and a special diet for a week. I'm surprised it hasn't been brought up as a...

Just be glad it isn't you getting bopped on the head... here it's just me and Seamus, so when he gets angry or frustrated it's me who bears the brunt of it, especially when I'm sitting on the computer and he doesn't know what to do with himself!
