    Innova versus EVO

    Miles and Shelly loved the Innova canned cat and kitten food I tried. So far, no digestive issues for either of them, though it's only been a day, so we'll see. I know Natura makes both the Innova and EVO, and EVO is grain free. I'm just wondering what would be the better food for both of...

    Friends at last!

    Tomorrow it will be 4 weeks since Miles' "gotcha" day. It doesn't seem like he's only been here for that long. As DH says, it's like he's been here forever. From the start he insisted, no, DEMANDED, that he be part of the family, and he is! At first, Shelly didn't want anything to do with him...

    Natures Variety Raw for cats?

    I saw some Natures Variety Raw medallions in a freezer at the pet store I frequent and was interested in trying it out on my two cats. The package says it's for both dogs and cats. I know dogs and cats have different nutritional requirements. Does that mean that the medallions would not be a...

    I think he's teething?

    How can such a cutie like my Miles have such awful breath? It smells like he ate a rotten mouse! Blech!! The rescue I adopted him from says he's 4-5 months old. He also does a strange chewing or chomping thing, mostly after he licks himself - he almost looks like he's chewing on a piece of gum...

    Miles and Shelly: Getting to know each other

    It's been a week and 3 days since we adopted 4-month old Miles. The introduction is coming along slowly. Sometimes it seems to be two steps forward, one step back, but I'll take it! Here's Day 2 of the introduction. Miles is behind the door. Day 5: We let Miles out, and they can actually...

    Ugh! 1 week later and old cat still chasing new!

    My new cat, Miles has been in our home for a week now. Shelly STILL chases him, hisses and swats at him. Miles has tried several times to be friends, but 9 times out of 10, Shelly will have none of it. I've gone out of my way to spend time with Shelly so she doesn't feel neglected. I thought...

    Did I introduce them too fast?

    We just brought our new 4 month old kitten home 5 days ago. The first day they were in totally separate rooms, but I started mingling their scents and put vanilla on both. The second day, was almost the same, except in the afternoon, I started to prop the door open so they could see each other a...

    My new cat squeaks instead of meows!

    My new male kitten, 4-5 months old, seems to like to vocalize. But, when he does, all that comes out is a little squeak! I can barely hear it. When I was bringing him home, he sure was making noise and yowling in the carrier, so he has a voice there somewhere! Will he grow out of it and find...

    I'm Miles. I'm finally in my fur-ever home!

    I've only been here for a day, so I'm still scared. My new mommy and daddy thought it would be best for me and someone they called "Shelly" if I stay in this room for a while until I feel more comfortable in my new house. Here I am in a cozy spot under the bed: Hmm.... It sounds interesting...

    Orange Tabby personality?

    We saw an adorable 5-6 month old orange tabby at Petsmart. As soon as we came in to greet him in his pen, he rubbed his cheek on my finger and rolled around and pushed his face in my hand! He was also meowing and scratching the cage, as if saying he wants to go home! He is so sweet, I think I'm...

    What kind of kitty friend is best for my cat?

    My cat Shelly is about 18 months old, whom we adopted 9 months ago. She is very sweet, very playful and active. Several times during the day, and especially at night, she runs around like wild, ears back, "meowls", stops short and then off she goes again. I feel so bad because she seems like...

    So close and yet so far...

    This made me laugh this morning and I had to share the picture. Shelly loves birdwatching so I set up a bird feeder outside our window. Here she is looking longingly at them: Carol

    The Belly Thread

    I'm new here, but thought I'd just jump in and start a picture thread! I don't know if it's just me, but I love it when cats show their bellies. It make me just want to go over and muss up their tummy fur, which usually earns me a little nip or swat. I can't resist though. Here's a picture of...
