My male cat is about a year old, neutered, and has been urinating on linens of late... He did this for a brief spell when he was very young; there were a few incidents in which he peed on piled up laundry, etc., so we no longer leave any bundled up clothing, towels or blankets on the floor. It...

Warning... long post ahead. This might sound bad to my fellow cat lovers out there: I adore my cats, but one of them is downright annoying 30% of the time. I haven't gotten decent sleep in over two months because of her. Every time I make progress in one area of negative behavior, or eliminate...

I'm at a bit of a loss here. I have an outdoor cat coming in and out of my apartment to nurse her three baby kittens, which have taken up residence in my bathroom. The kittens are three weeks old and desperately need to be rid of fleas, but mom has them too. I know I can wash the babies with...

My cat is currently nine months old--she was the sweetest little kitten ever, and loved everybody up until I spayed her at six months. Since then, she has an extremely different personality. Nothing has really changed in her home life. She alternates between being nice, and biting and scratching...

There's a stray cat in my apartment complex who is keeping her litter of three on my porch--again, so of course I'm going to have two cats now. =) I have a few complicated dilemmas: I have dealt with this same cat before (and will have her spayed using a local program for strays after this...

I have a six month old kitten who's usually fairly sweet. She's always had a tiny problem with play aggression, but that aside, she's typically affectionate, likes to sit in my lap, sleep in my bed, be picked up and petted, etc. This past month, she's done a complete turn around. It started...

I have one kitten with a deep, covered litter box. I typically keep four inches of litter in there--I feel bad admitting this, but it gets scooped about every two days, or if I notice an unpleasant smell. One thing I wonder about though: her litter often starts smelling as soon as she uses it...

... I know there's a ton of literature on kittens biting, and I've already looked through the forums for an answer to this... Alas, here I am, still at a loss. My Annikki is three months old, and she's very energetic; every moment of every day is about play and attention, especially ambushing...

Sorry this one is kind of long, but here it goes: This is a horrible question, but I just have to ask. There are a number of cats in my apartment complex, and there's a nasty case of ringworm going around. My kitten, who is the only indoor cat I actually keep, has been treated for it with...

Today was absolutely horrifying. My eight week old kitten Annikki came to me just a few days ago--she has an epic case of ringworm, so I was trying to at least stop the itching a bit with some Clotrimazole 1% until I could afford (time-wise and financially >< ) to take her to the vet. So, I got...

I've had my beloved cat Amelia for eleven years now, but she's been living with my mother since my relocation to the city... denizen of suburbia, I didn't think she'd care much for my third-floor apartment and a certain lack of fields for her to romp and torment birds in. Word is she is pleased...

I've been taking care of a rather skittish little pregnant cat for the past month... she was badly malnourished, so I started feeding her, and now she's grown quite comfortable with me. She essentially lives on my porch. She birthed her kittens about two weeks ago, and I had no idea where she'd...
