    Sudden aggression in my cat

    My cat Sissy has had a rough month so I suppose that could be the cause but I'd like some other opinions. She was the most laid back and mellow cat but over the past month she was in heat for seven days, then she got sick (vomiting due to constipation and possible enteritis according to the...

    I'm getting worried about my cat Sissy

    Sissy just came out of an estrus cycle four or five days ago. Since then she has been slightly aggressive (hissing and swatting) if her sister comes near her. Now today Sissy has vomited three times. The first two times food came up but this most recent vomiting didn't bring up food despite the...

    Hootie is acting strange

    She has been more clingy than usual, preferring to sleep close to me when normally she doesn't. She has also been more jumpy and is more easily startled by a sudden noise. Other than those two things she is fine though. Eating, drinking, bathroom, and play habits are all normal. She's not...

    Does anyone have bearded dragons that can give me some advice. My beardie seems to straining while p

    She's been doing it for a few weeks now. I don't think she's dehydrated because I feed her plenty of fresh greens with water spritzed on them plus I give her baths and spray her at least twice a day with a water bottle. Usually when she is thirsty she will drink from the water bottle as I'm...

    Cats are just weird (but I'm sure you all know that) Sister cat acting like a Mom

    Sissy and Hootie are sisters but lately Sissy has been acting a bit like she's a momma cat and Hootie is her kitten. If Sissy is laying on my lap and see's Hootie lay down somewhere she will jump down, run to Hootie, lay down and start grooming her. If they are laying together in the computer...

    Hootie has been vomiting frequently and I'm getting concerned.

    She's thrown up several hairballs in the past three days and she's thrown up twice just shortly after eating her food. I haven't switched cat foods but I'm wondering if it's the cat treats my husband bought a few weeks ago because I have been giving both cats treats most everyday the past few...

    Could Hootie be pretending to be in heat? (Yes I know that sounds silly)

    First off I plan to get Sissy and Hootie spayed hopefully this summer, they just turned two yesterday YAAAY! Sissy goes into heat more frequently than Hootie, every two to three months it seems. Hootie was in heat last December and it seems her heat before that was in December of 2012, so once a...

    Hairball control my butt!

    I've been feeding the girls Purina indoor cat chow with "hairball control" and they've hacked up more hairballs in the past month than in their entire two years of life! I think I'm going to switch them back to their old food which was Friskies and put some vasoline on their paws once in awhile...

    I just don't understand this behavior at all

    Sissy has a habit of pawing and scratching at papers like letters or bills left on the counter, and boxes like empty cereal or cracker boxes. She really gets into it, scratching away like she's in the litter box.

    I think they sometimes worry about other non-existent cats in the house lol

    It's weird but I think sometimes that Sissy and Hootie aren't always aware of one another. I've noticed at times they seem startled by each others presence and have to sniff and check each other out. And sometimes if one hears the other eating or using the litter box they have to go investigate...

    Why do my cats startle so easy?

    Sissy and Hooite will be two years old in March and my husband and I have had them since they were 7-8 weeks old. I know for a fact that they weren't abused as kittens in their previous home. They startle and scatter at sudden loud noises in the house, for example if they are playing and knock...

    Hootie seems to spend an excessive amount of time scratching around in the litter box.

    I never notice her doing it in the day that much but it always seems when I'm trying to sleep Hootie will use the bathroom then spend several minutes scratching and digging to cover it up. Even if the box is freshly cleaned she will do this and Sissy rarely does it, only scratching a few times...

    Sometimes I get concerned when they go off alone and sleep.

    I know cats are solitary by nature but will socialize if they choose to. Hootie and Sissy generally sleep in the living room where my husband and I spend the most time at home. There are times though when Hooite will go and sleep at the end of the hallway farthest from the living room and Sissy...

    Odd ball things cats are attracted to.

    I'm just curious as to what strange stuff others fur babies like. Both of my girls like to eat baked goods such a bread, muffins, pastries etc. (I only give them a small bit on occasion). Hootie likes spicy stuff although I don't give her spicy stuff she has stolen hot and spicy pork rinds out...

    Bad mites (I think)

    Sissy has most always had gobs of nasty brown and black stuff in her ears! I'm not sure if it's ear mites though because Hooite's ears are okay, wouldn't both cats have ear mites? I try to clean Sissy's ears as best I can and last year I bought some ear mite treatment from the pet store but they...

    Anyone dream their cat or cats have mystical powers?

    I never have before but last night I dreamed that Hootie walked through a closed door, well not quite closed but ajar. I could see her front half in the hallway and her back half still in the room at one point, then she went the rest of the way through lol. Isn't that so weird?

    I wish I could take in a female stray and her kitten.

    The neighbor kid told me the cat and kitten are sort of their cat. He said they feed them and let them in sometimes but I don't really think so because the poor things are always over here. She is even pregnant again! I really want to take them in but my husband says no. Plus Hootie doesn't like...

    Do calming sprays work for hyper-activity?

    If cats had human disorders Hootie would definitely have ADHD. She's not like a typical cat that will get the crazies for a bit then lay down and nap, she gets the crazies for 4-6 hours sometimes! Especially at night while I'm sleeping. While her rambunctiousness is endearing and part of her...

    Sissy and Hootie's story

    I may not be new to TCS but Sissy and Hootie are so I'll give their background here. My husband and I got them from a friend in May of 2012 when they were around 8 weeks old. Hootie almost died while she was living in her birth home (why I don't know) but she was nursed back to health by our...

    Rosco's highjinks

    When I had my Popsie he never bothered anything on the Christmas tree. Woody doesn't bother with it either but Rosco keeps fooling with the ornaments. He's already knocked two balls off and batted them around. He can be such a pain but I love him.
