I added a new cat to the household three months ago. The resident cat had a particular eating pattern. When I give her the wet food in the evening she would eat a bit, leave the bowl, clean a bit, go back, eat a bit more, go to the window and look out a bit, then back to the bowl - so it would...

I thought this might be interesting to consider and discuss on this site. Here is an ad I came across on a website: There is a woman on here that is looking for a calico kitten and had contacted me on two kittens that I had for sale. Both for $150....for various reasons. They are sisters and I...

This is just an observation that I have recently made. I had a pair of cats that were brother and sister (different litters - same mother). They always behaved like a "couple". They were generally inseperable, except when they had a fight, and then they would sleep in separate rooms. A fight...

My new cat came with his own 'self-cleaning' litterbox. This is a nightmare. First, I'm told you have to use the special 'white' litter designed for the box. I hate it. It turns yellow with use - how ugly! Could I fill that thing with just normal clumping cat litter? The most interesting...

I hope I have the right forum for these neat pictures. This is a great video by some guy who wrote a song about his little kitty 'Sparta', it is really cute.

Ok, so Mr. Wiskers seems to have confused purring with growling. He will let me pet him, and he really enjoys it - but he growls through the entire thing, eventually hissing and trying to swat me. He growls when he is eating catnip, he growls when I walk by him. He seems to like growling. My...

Well, I found a cat to add to the family. Mr. Wiskers (formerly known as Smokey). He looks so much like Bradley that I am thrilled, except that he is a Persian Cross, and therefore looks like a little lion. He went to visit the vet today and received a clean bill of health and his shots. I...

This is one of my all time favorite videos. Isn't it just like a cat!

I don't know if anyone else has seen this, but it is amazing. When you turn 60 and think, "What am I going to do now" how far down on your list would mountain climbing be? Doesn't even appear on my list.

I was at Walmart the other day and saw a new(er) litter that is made of corn husks. It is said to be all natural and clumping. Has anyone tried it? I wish there was a solution to the litter all over the floor problem and wonder if that stuff (which looks like even smaller bits than the...

I'm repeating what I wrote in my "Adding a new cat to a feral's home" thread here because I can't help feeling I should notify someone about this. The problem is that as with many downright stupid people the information is all inuendo and has the appearance of being coincidental. The BIG...

Sorry to start so many threads at once, but the subjects are so different and hopfully might turn out to be helpful. I am of the opinion (and my vet at least agrees) that cats can be renamed by different people without negative effects. In other words any person new to a cat can use whatever...

I thought it might be interesting to discuss or share our ideas about whether a cat adoption works best if the previous owner delivers the cat to the new home, or if the new owner should take the cat from one home to the new one? I kind of think that it would be best for the previous owner to...

Hello again, the last time I visited this site, I was trying to find out how to tame a feral cat. It took months, but with all the good advice (closing her in one room, although tough on me, worked wonderfully) she has taken to my home - it is now hers. She is somewhat whinny though - she has...
