    Hair static,conditioner,comb/brush

    I have 3 cats, a short-har a med-hair and a long-hair. A little bit of any un-scented organic oil or even Vaseline keeps hair conditioned and static-free. The best brush/comb I've ever had is my husband's natural bristle hair brush and his barber-type fine tooth comb. Comb first then the brush...

    Help me understand - Wet vs Dry food

    Your post is very helpful. I have 3 cats, a short-coat, a med-coat and a long-coat. I've been feeding them a mixture of 1/2 Felidae and 1/2 Whatever-is-on-sale Purina. Could you please recommend something in between price-wise. Thanks.

    I need photos of Ragdoll kitties, please

    I adopted a 6mos old female Ragdoll-look-alike from the shelter. She has Siamese seal or chocolate points and a plume-like tail. Her creme colored body has plume-like hair as well. I don't have a good photo of her to show you yet. Is this type hair typical of Ragdolls kitties? She does not...

    Carpet Cleaning

    Thanks. I brush their hair with something like this.rubber bristles. Where did you buy it? You are all so helpful. It is true, a shampooer involves water and that will probably make things worse. I will continue to vacuum daily. As I said, the carpets "look" clean, no stains or odors...

    Thanks Strange Wings. Do you suggest that I stick with truck-mounted cleaning or a rental?

    Carpet Cleaning

    I have 1 DSH, 1 DMH, 1 DLH. My carpets "looks" clean, but I'm sure they are full of cat hair. I need your opinions. Should I continue to get the carpets professionally cleaned or should I buy a carpet cleaner? What brand cleaner? Thank you

    What kitty litter do you use and why?

    "Special Kitty Scoopable" Is clumping just fine. However I bought the one with "Odor Magic Citrus". It smells HORRIBLE once it mixes with urine. I am going back to Arm & Hammer, Scoop Away and Fresh Step, whichever is the least expensive at the time...AND THAT"S THAT!!

    What kitty litter do you use and why?

    Yep. "Yesterday's News" is just what it says--newspaper. It soaks up the wee and gets soggy. You can't separate the poo from the litter either because the litter is too big to fall through the sifter. So, now you have a big stinking mess. I bought "Special Kitty" litter today. If this is...

    What kitty litter do you use and why?

    Today I bought a box of Special Kitty Clumping from Walmart. I've never used it b4. I have 3 indoor cats. I am fanatic about oders and a clean home. I'll let you know how it works.

    New member/cat owner seeking opinions. Snowshoe,,,

    Hi Federico. We rescued a "Snowshoe" 2 yrs ago and love her so much. 2 weeks ago we rescued another one. She is about 6 mos old. The older one has short hair like yours and hardly sheds. She LOVES to be brushed. The baby has longer hair and looks like a Snowshoe/squirrel, for now. They...

    Male cat covering new cat's BM

    I have 3 cats, female 3yrs old, male 2 yrs old. and a 6mos old female who's been with us just 2 weeks. The baby uses her own un-shared litter box. Why does the male always go to her litter box and covers up anything she's done? They all get along well and are indoors-only. Thanks

    Hair advice please

    My cat was a feral for 3 mos and caged at a rescue location for 3 mos. The volunteers loved her, but had no time for her. She is a 6 mos old petite SnowShoe/Siamese. Her hair looks like it's going to be long. She needs a good brushing, but she won't allow me to touch her yet. OK,so here's...

    Is this a feral?

    Stefan, thank you. This cat spent 3 months feral and 3 months caged. She now jumps in bed and climbs on me. She still won't let me touch her, as you predicted. She reluctantly takes treats from my hand. My other 2 cats cautiously try to play with her. She has become familiar with most of...

    Is this a feral?

    I put a few treats in a paper bag. She got into it and ate them. Tomorrow I will keep the door to her room open. The 3 cats can go in and out as they please and she can hide if she wants. The other 2 don't seem interested in pursueing her. Let me know if you don't agree. Thanks

    Is this a feral?

    Yes, I have 2 older cats, 3yrs and 2yrs old. They met the new cat (GiGi), smelled her, licked her face and are now almost totally uninterested. Thanks for your help.

    Is this a feral?

    This is my first post--anywhere. I adopted a 6mos old Birman/Snowshoe looking female cat 4 days ago. The shelter said she the last of a litter to be caught and was brought in "alone". She was brought to the shelter when she was 10wks old. She's been caged ever since. The volunteer said she...
