that ssscat is cool! wow, i could have used that when murphy was a kitten.
i've never found a way to keep murphy off countertops, the dining room table, etc... the best i've ever managed is to be sure there is nothing enticing or fun to play with (or break) on the areas where he roams... if i...
awwww puffball is soooo precious!! and yes, murphy is EXACTLY the same way! it's frustrating at times because i want everyone to see how awesome he is (not just looking but he's got the most hilarious and endearing personality!!) but it just doesn't happen.
we recently moved and prior to...
not usually! sometimes if it would hurt a little if he did it a few times a day and then i'd usually put an earring in. that would make him mad though lol... he'd try to nibble it off so he could have the ear unfettered.
thanks for the replies! i figured it had to do with being separated...
i don't know what it means but it sure sounds adorable!!! i'm forever fascinated with cat behavior and what it all means. i wish there was a book out there with tons of different cat behaviors and their definitions.
enjoy it and welcome!!
when murphy was a baby kitten he'd climb up me to hold him and i held him like a baby and he'd put both paws around my neck, one in the front, one in the back, and proceed to start sucking on my earlobe! lol...then he'd switch ears and do the other one. as he got older, he favored the left one...
lmfao! real helpful, thanks everyone!
i guess you're right... murphy definitely has 2 new toys. LUCKILY, they came from target so i didn't break the bank on them! gotta love target!
my cousin was telling me about that bitter apple spray too but she couldn't remember the name of it. it...
ugh! i just got these new sheepskin furry throw pillows and murphy is freaking out!! it's hilarious but he's going to ruin them. he's totally attacking them like they are prey or something. he keeps pouncing on them and burying his head in them biting them!!
is there anything i can spray...
enjoy it!! my mom has that one and she loves it! i have the yellow one and it's supposedly not nearly as good but i think it's pretty awesome so i can't even imagine how good the purple one is! weeeeeeeee, i love awesome cleaning products!
congratulations!!
i don't have any babies yet (human ones, anyway) so i can't really help you out but i just wanted to say congrats!
come back and update this after your baby arrives and let us know how your (cat) baby, tigger is handling his new (human) sibling.
sad but true
another vote to keep them! they get lots of playtime and loving while y'all are in the office and the fun probably just begins once the human work people leave them alone to get into mischief.
lol, murphy does it too... every morning i line up his food and water nice and neat against the wall and within an hour the water bowl is half way across the room in the middle of the floor we finally got smart and got a much bigger bowl for the water than his food bowl (i hated breaking up...
glad odor shield kitchen sized garbage bags!! i empty the littermaid waste receptacle into a glad bag on tuesday and it sits there until friday when i empty the receptacle into the bag again and out it goes. those scented garbage bags really work! the drawstring, not the flaps. (i bought...
my mom used to use "goo gone" in my hair when i was little and got gum in it. then she'd comb through it and wash it out with shampoo and that always worked but i don't know if it's safe for animals.
good luck
i was having horrendous problems with hair everywhere so i stepped up the amount that i brush murphy... usually every other day or two. i don't use a furminator because i don't want the underneath hair to get cut but i know for many, it's a great solution. i find that frequent brushing does...
i agree, shaving would definitely be a last resort for me. i read a ton of reviews on the furminator and it sounds like it cuts quite a bit of the underneath hair... most people raved about it but those who thought they were just buying a grooming tool to brush their cat were surprised and...
you got that right!!!
i've been remodeling since we moved into this new place in april and we just refinished the floors. we also had the electricians put an electric outlet in the closet where i keep the litter box. that way murphy has almost total privacy and i don't have to look at...
