    Best grooming tool for siamese

    I have a bunch of siamese, and although they are "short hair" I do find hair lying around. It gets ugly on our dark hardwood floors. I want to find a good grooming tool to help with this problem... I've heard some people mention the furminator, some mention zoom groom- which is best for a short...

    multiple cats and feline pine scoop?

    I did not have any luck using feline pine with multiple cats. Too much tracking/mess! I use world's best EXTRA STRENGTH (don't like the regular) and I love it. They have a program where you can save/mail in your UPC's and get great coupons for new bags.

    Deworming Question

    All cats are susceptible to worms/fleas, even indoors. I think my vet told me that 95% of kittens are BORN with worms, despite whether or not the mother has them. As far as fleas go, unless everyone in your house stays inside like a hermit and never ever leaves the house, your cat can get...

    Help! Our Cat is Stuck in Attic

    Deworming Question

    I usually deworm my cats with Pyrantel (aka Strongid/Nemex). I just started using Revolution (quite a price hike, but it covers fleas, ear mites, etc as well). Now that they are on a schedule with revolution, can I discontinue the Pyrantel? Or will they still need that for some different kinds...

    Help with pregnant cat

    There are probably clinics in your area that will do the spay/neuter for next to nothing. Females that are NOT fixed will constantly cry (VERY noisy), and try to escape. She could easily slip out and get away. Males that are NOT fixed will spray urine in your house to mark their territory...

    Automatic litterboxes- which is best?

    Thanks for all your help, everyone! Going on your advice, I bought a (slightly used) litter robot, and love it! I have 5 cats and plan on buying a new one from the company, so I will have two (one upstairs, one downstairs). Thanks again!

    Automatic litterboxes- which is best?

    I have 3 siamese cats and want to get an automatic litterbox box(es) for them. For those of you who have used one, can you give me some recommendations about which one I should/ should NOT buy? There are so many options out there (and they are expensive!) so I want to make the right decision...
