    "Cats aren't clean, they're just covered in Cat spit."

    cat tongues are very clean. And their saliva acts in the same way we have deodorant. Which is why cats smell pretty all the time even if they havent had a bath.

    Fish food as cat snacks?

    once upon a time Nigel got ontop of the fish tank where there was a closed pot of fish food for tropical fish. He nocked it to the floor and continued playing with it until the lid fell off and proceeded to eat most of its contents. He absolutly loved the stuff, but I have kept it locked away...

    Cat's and Open Windows

    My kitten really wants to go outside all the time and we have a really hard time when we have the windows open as he tries and escapes. I have heard of these cat screens and looked for them, but never found any - where would I be able to find one?

    Any hope my kitten will someday control his hunger?

    Sounds exactly like Dave was. He used to eat so much as a kitten he would be doing more than 3 huge poos a day and that was me still not leaving food out all the time. I couldnt free feed him even the dry food as he just loved everything. He was soooo mad for food that he learnt how to open up...

    Shocked at ammount of meat in dry foods

    I have always fed him a mixture of dry and wet food since bringing him home But am thinking of going more to the dry stuff, and giving wet stuff as a treat every so often, as all the wet stuff I have found is not as nutritional as the decent dry stuff I buy. He does like the wet food, but...

    How do your cats greet you when you get home?

    It's the greatest thing coming home to a cat. Nigel is always there at the catflap looking out and meowing to me. When I get inside and sit down he jumps all over me.

    Shocked at ammount of meat in dry foods

    I was just at the supermarket picking up some wine, and decided to go down the cat food isle. I wanted to check the quantity of meat in dry cat foods. I compared Iams, Whiskers, Felix and Go Cat (as these were all that are available in the supermarker) and was shocked to see that there is as...

    Any hope my kitten will someday control his hunger?

    My first cat Dave was really greedy and would eat anything in front of him. I had to be careful from day one, as if there was more food than he should eat he would still eat the whole lot and then be sick. I had to measure out his meals and give him the right ammount as when he got to 12...

    Buying cat fountain - petmate freshflow or drinkwell?

    I have decided on getting Nigel a cat fountain as it seems he has found a love of drinking out of the bath tap and no longer wants to drink from his bowl. Anyway, I am trying to pick between two: The Petmate Freshflow or the Drinkwell Fountain. The freshflow has loads more positive reviews...

    Finding flea eggs in house

    I just have to add: I feel really bad. I am so rubbish as a pet owner and I feel so guilty that I was so nieve in the first place not to notice he had fleas. The first thing that made me realise he had them was an increasing in bites up my legs and where he drinks in the bath there were little...

    Finding flea eggs in house

    Thanks for all your replies. It didnt even cross my mind that they could have been worms instead of eggs. When we went to the vet to get all the stuff to treat him, they gave us a 3 months supply of frontline spot on, plus 1 large pill of drontal worming stuff plus a can of flea...

    Kitties with Quirks!

    Nigel has evil eyebrows like Jack Nicholson in The Shining. He is just coming up for 6 months old and has lost his baby teeth at the bottom so when he meows or opens his mouth he has a load of huge bright white teeth on show. Looks silly like we have got him cosmetic dentistry!

    Trying to get rid of fleas - what am I missing?

    The flea stuff I could get on short notice this time was Bob Martin stuff (uk) which I have heard might not be as good as vet rated stuff. Would never bath him in the pet shampoo or any other. I wash him in a organic cucumber solution. Does not strip his oils or change his PH and has no...

    Does anybody bath their cats?

    I ask becuase I have found that both kittens I have had do not seem to groom themselves properly until they are around 9 months - a year old. My kitten who we brought home at 12 weeks old is now around 16 weeks old and I never see him cleaning himself ever. Is there anything I can do to help...

    Should I be worried - no proposal after 10 years?

    He saw me crying the other day and I explained a little more deeply in to how I have been feeling lately. He doesnt really say much back. He tells me he doesnt like upsetting me and that he hates seeing me like this. And then he said that he doesnt know why he thinks of it as such a big scarey...
