    too rough?

    I recently took over care of my brother's cat, and she and my cat have been playing together a lot. My concern is that they are playing too rough. They bite, pounce, smack, and pin each other down. They don't hiss or puff up their fur, but I'm just worried it's too rough for them. At what point...

    Introducing food to kittens

    We have four kittens, and they're about a month old now. We know it's time to start introducing dry and/or wet food, but we honestly don't know how. Any advice you could offer would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    First timers...

    My brother found a cat as a stray, brought her home about 6 weeks ago, and yesterday she gave birth to 4 of the cutest kittens I have ever seen. Then it hit me: No one in this house has ANY idea how to take care of a kitten. We also have a large dog and another cat with brain damage (she doesn't...

    pregnant???

    My brother brought home a stray about 2 weeks ago, and we're beginning to wonder if she's pregnant. Her nipples are large and pink and the fur has fallen off. She's also eating like a pig (even stealing my cat's food). We have a vet appointment for next week, but are not sure what to do until...

    cords and chewing

    My cat recently chewed through a computer power cord, and I'm not sure what to do. I will be replacing it, but I don't want her to chew through it again. She has never had a problem with chewing in the past, but I know this is a very dangerous behavior. Any advice to make a cord look less...

    just sayin hi

    Just wanted to drop in and say hello! I'm one of the newbies here. I have a 9 month old kitty named Meisje. I've had her since she was about 10 weeks, and it's been a journey. She has brain damage due to complications with anesthesia, but she's still my kitty. This makes her a bit more difficult...

    antisocial kitty

    I have a rather interesting problem. My cat loves children and women, but when my boyfriend, dad, or brother try to touch her, she hisses, swats, and scratches. I don't know why she is doing this. All I know is it started after a rather traumatic visit to the vet (her heart stopped twice during...

    fat cat?

    I have a 9 month old DSH kitty and I just can't figure out if she's fat. She's always begging for food and going in the kitchen searching for it, but I think I feed her plenty. I can feel her ribs and spine, and I can see her waist, but she is getting quite a pooch under her tummy. Is this...
