I once had a cat who was able to open the kitchen cabinets! She hid there when exterior painting was done on my bldg and the clatter and workmen's noises scared her. I never dreamed she was able to open the cabinet and discovered her secret hiding place once when looking for cleaning supplies...

I had to get a prescription wet food for my cat Ashes; since I have two cats, the vet said both could eat wet food. At first I fed Ashes and Patti together. (Both are ten; Ashes was a stray and is small, about 7-8 pounds, and Patti is a Burmese(? FLuffy siamese type?). Ashes is very careful...

She does not seem confused at all - she is quite happy when she is in my apartment with me. I was home more yesterday than usual and we went through this twice - I gave in when I couldn't take the meowing! At the end of the second hallway exploration, she encountered a neighbor - with a leashed...

One of my foster-cats, Patti, has started a new evening ritual: I live in an apartment building, on the first floor; when I come in she darts out of my apartment into the hallway and walks the length of the wall to the front door. She sits there and just meows and meows in a sad way. I pet...

Help - I have taken care of two lovely cats since November. The owner is now ready to take her cats back to there original home where they have lived for ten years. She came to visit her cats last night - not having seen them since May - and they acted as she was a complete stranger, one hid...

Dear Maggie, I lost my Edwina 11 days ago; she was 15. I cried horribly the first 5-6 days, especially when I came home and she was not there to greet me. It is so quiet at home. She was in pain and she collapsed the day that I took her to be euthanized. That was such a difficult decision...I...

My dear sweet Edwina had to be put to sleep on Wednesday, October 3. She was beautiful and elegant and refined. She had many health problems including a growth in her mouth which contributed to her death. I cannot believe how much she enhanced my life. I am so sad to be without her; I only...

Feline pine is the reverse of scoopable litter. It is essentially little pellets that dissolve when wet (from urine, obviously) and turn into a sawdust-like substance. There is a strange organic smell to it. I had great luck with one cat with it but not so much the second cat (in early...

First, I would like to thank everyone for their support and information. I have had several long conversations with the vet and she said that the biopsy is a separate procedure from actually removing the growth. Because of the size of the growth, part of Edwina's haw - and possibly tongue -...

I was given a 5-6 week old cat many years ago - my family and I realized that he was given to us a bit early. He did have some issues socializing and definitely seemed to be not quite mature and didn't seem to know how to do everything a cat should know - for example, he was not a very good...

My 14 year old cat went to the vet a few days ago - she had been drooling - it seems she has a large growth in her mouth and the vet advised a biopsy to determine whether it is malignant and that procedure would entail general anesthesia. Furthermore, she could possibly need to have a portion...
