    For those who have both clawed and de-clawed cats, please chime in

    I have 4 cats and 1 is declawed. It hasn't been a problem in our house. When the declawed one tossles with the others playfully or non he can definitely hold his own. He does a sort of rabbit kick type thing along with biting.

    unstoppable super kitten

    I got one of those stove top kettle steamers in the hopes that the steaming would keep them away from it. Ideally the hope is that silly boy learned his lesson the hard way on that one!

    unstoppable super kitten

The idea at this point is that a few weeks ago when we had snow here and the heat up higher then normal, he may...

    sores on paws?

    I'm at work worrying away. I have a vet appt for tonight but I thought I might ask around here to see if anyone has experience with this. Last night I noticed my 1 year old had sores all over the pads of his paws. He was snuggling up with me in bed on his back and it was really obvious. I...

    I have a 4 year old DHL that I adopted around Halloween with his sister. They were both underweight and stressed- not eating. not grooming ect.
