you said that she is very healthy, does that mean you have taken her to the vet recently? I ask because I have to wonder if perhaps some type of pain when she walks? If you haven't taken her in recently I would suggest taking her in and asking the vet to check to see if that could be the cause...

Do you have each of them sleeping with something that has the other's scent on it? Or perhaps having your son spend some time with the kitten (getting the kitten's scent on him) and then go to the older cats area and spending time with him?  This might sound a little crazy but if you don't have...

what a lovely cat. I agree with the others and perhaps just half closing their eyes (or sleepy eyes) would be helpful to? If I remember right it's one of the ways cats tell each other that they aren't a threat and that all is well.  Another thing I would try if possible is hanging some shelves...

Do you mind if I ask if you live alone? If not, does she do this with the other people living with you, or are those the two she doesn't do it with? If that's not the case, can you think of any reason she isn't acting that way with them? Has she known them longer or spent more time with them...

hmm, well right now I feed her friskies (the classic pate) mixed with a bit of water since I'm trying to get her to drink more water at night while having a small bowl of lams dry food for her to free feed. I know it's not the best food out there, but I was told that this type of wet food is the...

I was wondering if anyone has ever make a spray or mist for a cat with dandruff? My cat has pretty bad dandruff but honestly I think it bothers me more then her. I don't see her scratching any more then normal (based on cats I've had in the past). In fact I don't think I would have noticed if...

First off, I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this, so please let me know or move this if it's not. A few years ago I was lucky enough to come across a cat tree that a older couple had up on craig's list. This tree was a diy project that they made for their foster kittens, which...

@mollymoomoo Thank you for the suggestion. I'm planning on trying it in a few weeks once the lump goes down. Right now the area that doesn't have any hair is the area where the lump is, and I got the impression from the vet that the hair wouldn't grow back until his lump was gone. But I'm...

Thanks for replying guys. I just thought I would let you know what it turned out to be incase anyone else has this problem and is searching through the site. I ended up calling monday and was told to put a warm cloth over the area for 5 mins at least 2 times a day and see if that helped. It...

We took our little dog and our 9-10 year old tabby, Oliver, in to the vet 2 days ago to get a check up. While there we learned that Oliver was way overdue for his distemper and rabies shots. Aside from this Oliver was given a clean bill of health. So we had him vaccinated and when home. He...

I adopted a cat (well she was about 6-7 months old, so not quiet grown) about 9 months ago. When I first got her (Saddie), I was a little worried because she came from a home where she was the only animal in the house and we have both a older cat (Oliver) and a dog (Lass), but her owner had...

Hi guys, I was hoping someone might have some suggestions for me, because I really dont know how to solve this problem. First off, this question isn't for me, its for a friend who lives across the street from my grandmother. This friend has a child who is alittle....different. There is a term...

Hi guys, I just got some good news for the new year and thought I would share. First alittle background. About a month ago I opened my door to find the cutest kitten on our doorstep crying (part Siamese, white with bright blue eyes probably about 6-8 weeks old). First I asked around to see if...

Well my cat (Sadie) is finally calming down and, atleast in her room, is comfortable. But one thing I've noticed is that she is very smart (and seems to have some Korat in her). So I have been thinking I should spend some time training her. That said, as fun as it is to watch, I don't really see...

First off, I'm sorry for your lost. Others on this site would probably know more then me (you might want to post in a new threat) but if it was me. I would take her into a smallish room, one that had one or two places for her to hide, but not so many things that you might "lose" him. (of course...

well her tail was flipping around like crazy, but her ears were up. since then I got her a the ball chase toy and she seems to like it. Today since I had the day off, I left the door open and put the other animals in another area of the house, then sat in the living room. She's been slowly...

She is getting better. This morning she jumped up on the bed and rubbed her face against my hand. But as soon as I started moving my hand she started half crying and half growling....what should I do? should I take it that she came up on the bed that I can pet her? should I stop when I hear that...

I never thought about that. As a matter of fact all cats I've gotten where from the shelter aside from a kitten saved from the streets (who was adopted to another couple the next week) and my first two cats, which I got at age 4 and they were kittens from a friend's cat. I never thought that it...

Well the long and short of this story is that I just got a new cat (new for me, he's alittle over 1 year old) and I'm having a bit of a problem bonding with her. Now for some background. (feel free to skip) I just lost my cat the sunday before last. She had gotten out and got ran over by a...

I was hoping to give them one to two weeks, but since our older cat kind of beat me to it, should I still wait, will it still do good or is the cat out of the bag, so to speak?
