    Zoe 2008-2010

    On Feb 1 I had to have Zoe put to sleep. She was acting a little mellow for a few days, but I didn't think much of it until one day I noticed she was breathing really fast. I took her to the Vet and they weren't sure what was wrong but because of x-rays they knew she had a fluid build up in her...

    litter box question

    I want to switch my cat from a regular box to a booda dome. Any recommendations for the transition ? I wanted to try avoid any possible accidents. The covered box would help alot with him scattering litter all over the floor.

    odd tail chasing behavior

    My cat Miles has always chased his tail when hyper since he was a kitten. He is now going on 8 and still does it. He used to not make much noise when doing it, except when he bit it good and then he might growl. Over the past year though, he has added an odd twist to it. He has started hissing...

    cats not playing

    I've had Zoe(1.5 years old) for over a year and her and Miles(8 years old) still don't play much at all. Its frustrating cause they both get wound up and haven't figured out they could play with each other without having to depend on me. Sometimes they will chase each other for a minute or two...

    in search of toy

    Miles has had a toy mouse since he was a kitten and its getting to the point that it might split open. Its about the only toy besides a turbo scratcher that he will play with on his own. He carries it around at night talking to it while he tosses it, rolls with it, and carries it around. I have...

    trying to get cat to eat more

    Miles, my 7 yr old male has had trouble adjusting a set feeding schedule. Up until 9 months ago, I free fed him dry food and he ate his fill, and was even a little on the heavy side. He was around 14 lbs, and I think the vet would have liked him to be around 12. He ate roughly 1/2 a cup of Iams...

    no meowing

    I've had Zoe for 5 months and she hardly ever meows. She mostly makes the sound that cats make when you disturb or suprise them. The only times ive heard her meow are when she gets her claws caught on something, and on trips to the vet where she meows non-stop. Not really concerned, its just...

    scooting

    For the past couple of days Miles has started scooting. Unfortunately he has chosen my bed as the main place to do it. What are the primary causes for this, just irritation and worms ? If its worms is there anything else that I could look for ? He has been going to the bathroom as usual and...

    new toy

    Today I noticed Zoe going crazy playing with something. By the time I got up to see what it was, I saw a lizard dash under my TV stand. Zoe was still playing with half of its tail that she had bit off. Now I get to wait to see if Zoe or Miles will find it because I can't see anything or move...

    possible eye issue

    For the past few days Miles has one eye that isn't as open as the other sometimes and winking fairly often. There hasn't been discharge, no swelling, and nothing else wrong. How long before I should think about taking him to the vet ? Its very difficult to get him into the carrier, and I know he...

    Zoe must not like water

    My new kitten Zoe, who is now 6 months old, must not like water, or likes to play with it too much because he is now flipping his water dish over every couple of days. He also sloshes most of the water out of his brother Miles' dish too. I do make sure to refill them when I see that she has done...

    A little while ago I got a kitten, Zoe, to go along with my 7 year old cat, Miles. I kept her seperated for a week in her own room, then I just kept her shut in her room when I was at work and at night. I put up Miles food when Zoe was out and Miles really didn't show much intrest in her food so...

    new kitten issue

    I just got a new kitten, about 12 weeks old, and I kept her closed in my spare bedroom with a litter box and food for the first couple of days because I have a second older cat. On the 3rd day I let her roam the rest of the house including the downstairs. Everything was fine until after a few...
