My poor Jake is just about 10 years old and in general good health. However, he vomits alllll the time (God bless the Bissell Spot Bot). I have taken him to the vet and he says he's just fine... he's been poked and prodded and xray'd - there are no blockages, no fevers and he seems ok. Jake is...

Oh! Please help! Bear with me.. it's kind of gross but I don't know what to do. My poor baby Jake is vomiting alllll the time. It's not "normal" vomit ("chunky" food or hairballs). It is primarily mostly digested food and bile. And it's happening allll the time. I took him to the vet three...

Hi folks! As some of you may know, my husband and I are in the process of buying our first house. We're hoping to close in a couple weeks and I have some concerns over moving our two cats. Currently, we're in a rather small, one bedroom apartment and buying this house will finally give us some...

Hi everyone! It's been a looooong time I know but I'm back for a bit and need a little advice please. We are currently in a small three room apartment. My squeeze and I are in the process of purchasing our first house and I was wondering the best way to move my two furballs? I know moving is a...

Both my boys are very clean. They are fastidious groomers and we take great care to be sure their litter box is cleaned daily. However, one of the kitties has a, well, stinkie coolie. His butt looks clean but it's emanating a rather potent smell. He's eating, drinking and acting perfectly...

Jake and Elwood seem to be perfectly happy healthy boys. They are both eating normally, are very active and super friendly. They are both almost 3 years old. Jake is a little thin and Elwood seems a little thick for brothers of the same litter but I'm not overly concerned. However, someone (and...

... that's why I need this question answered, please! These holidays have been very hectic for me and hubby this year and we have not had the oppotunity to decorate as we'd have liked. So, last night, feeling guilty, I went out and bought a teeny fern like christmas tree. It's not even really a...

I recently posted a thread about my very close friends mother and her bout with brain cancer (http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...threadid=26167). Well, Kathy's mom passed on Thanksgiving and her funeral was a few days later. It was awful, as most passings are. Kathy is devastated as she was...

Happy Halloween! CLICK HERE for Dracu-Kitty!

We all have our reasons for naming our fur babies what we do. But are your kitties named after someone or something in particular? For example, my boys are named Jake and Elwood after Jake and Elwood Blues from the movie "The Blues Brothers" with John Belushi and Dan Ackroyd. What about your...

... anyone have any ideas on how to prevent your tree/presents from getting wrecked?? I refuse to NOT have a real tree just because of my boys. I heard somewhere that tying fishing wire to the top of the tree and the tying the other end to a wall or window or some other stationary object will...

I found this and thought it was interesting and wanted to share... Cat's Age Human's Age 6 months 10 years 8 months 13 years 1 year 15 years 2 years 24 years 4 years 32 years 6 years 40 years 8 years 48 years 10 years 56 years...

I just cleaned out the litter box (as is the highlight of my every day )and I noticed that NEITHER kitty had, well, poo'ed. Neither one! The box was poo-free. Should I be worried about this? I did recently (within the last week and a half or so) change their dry food to Iams Hairball care. But...

Looks like lunch to me!!!

... have all your furniture covered? I lveo my fur babies to peices but it hit me last night that my apartment looks like a haunted house scene! My sectional and bed are covered with white sheets so as to not get kitty cat fur all over them! Anyone else have this going on?

Ok - I'm a BIG fan of this new Federal Do-Not-Call Registry. In fact, I signed up for it the day it was available. I am so sick and tired of the gazillion bulls*** phone calls I get and I think this registry is a great idea. Yeah, I know - it's stuck in high court limbo about whether or not...

... how touched I am that she thought of me and how sorry I am that she will be leaving us soon. Kathy and I have been friends almost 20 years, since we were 15. We've been through a lot over the years and had even lost touch for a brief while, as sometimes happens. We never stopped being...

A friend of mine sent this to me and I just wanted to share it with you. I call it "Soldier Kitty".....

.. and it's getting very irritating. This has been going on now for the last few days (maybe longer but they were probably just more sneaky about it). The boys have now started jumping up on the kitchen counters, refrigerator and entertainment center. They were pretty good about knowing what...

Good things are happening at work for me but, I've gotta tell you, it's making me a little nervous... Readers Digest version: I am a Business/Systems Analyst (computer geek) and the primary breadwinner at home. In 2000, I got laid off. I was out of work for almost two years. It was horrible. It...
