I tried the Bioganic product that was sapposed to kill ants instantly. I am not happy with this product at all. It did slow the ants down a bit but it did not istantly kill them as the label stated. My cats lick at the ants too. I was wondering if they were part anteater. Ha ha. I guess...

I am having the same problem here in KY. I have tried ant baits and such with no avail. We sprinkled ant crystals under the house but they are still here from one end of the house to the other. I too am worried about using pesticides around our pets. Yesterday at our local WalMart I found a...

Well my two cats love Purina One in the salmon flavor. I have tried a couple of other brands when the store was out of stock but they didn't seem to like those as much as Purina. I also give them a half a can of canned cat food a piece about once a week as a treat. Our vet really preached...

Gee thanks for letting me know that. I will see if I can get some of the Frontline or Revolution from the vet's office. Simon came in today with a tick on his belly. He sleeps in our bed so I had better try something soon before he brings them in to us. Thanks again.

I used Advantage drops on the back of her neck last summer and she managed to lick it somehow and got really sick. I am scared to use other drops because she does groom herself a lot. My friend told me there were tablets (I believe it was called Sentinel(?)) that worked similar to the drops...

Last summer I tried using flea drops on the back of my cat's neck which was a total disaster. She somehow licked it and foamed at the mouth and got pretty sick. We have tried flea collars too. She hates them and when she does have one on will kick and scratch at it until we take it off. I...

Simon and Tiger had their disagreements again today. I let them out for their afternoon break and all was fine. After an hour or so I let Tiger in but had to go fetch Simon who was not compliant. As soon as both saw each other in the house fur began flying. We squirted each down with a water...

A good ole soaking from a water bottle if what we use at our house. When we catch the young'uns in an act of eating the houseplants, climbing on the countertops, or clawing at the furniture, etc. I would never swat at my babies. Sometimes we clap our hands loudly and talk sternly to them...

Today, both cats are acting as usual by rubbing noses and such. We have only had Simon for a short time and he had never been let out before. So, yes, I guess we did introduce him to new experiences. He likes to go outside and is becoming more and more of an outdoor cat. I won't let him stay...

Our two cats, who are both buddies and who have been fixed, have recently had a change in attitude that lasted for about 2 days. We let Simon out for a while but when I tried to get him back in he hissed at me. Then after getting into the house he and my female cat, Tiger, acted quite...

My heart just sank as I read your post. I am sorry for your loss especially after fighting so hard to save Tango. God's little creatures touch our lives in mysterious ways. You will be in my thoughts today.

Sure will have to look into that. Simon has a cat jungle gym with little dangling toys but maybe he would prefer something that he could pack around. His play mice I know need replacing. They have been chewed "to death" so to speak.

Thank you for your advise. No, Simon ate several strands of my child's Easter Grass and it made him very sick. He vomited most of the day to get it out of his system. I was truly worried about him because plastic strands like that could have gotten caught up and injured his intestines. I...

Our 1 year old male cat named Simon has recently started a bad habit. If he can find any trace of plastic around the house he will try to eat it. Today he found my child's easter grass and ate several strands which he later expelled. I don't understand why he would begin to do this. We have...

Have you tried checking into animal foundations in your area? In Kentucky there is a place called Buried Treasure, which is an antique/resale shop that gives proceeds to help with spaying and neutering. I used their services to get my pet spayed. You fill out forms and if your financial...

Real love is when to know when to let go. You are in our thoughts. It is hard to see one of our loved ones in pain. I am sorry that you had to make that type of decision but you did it out of love. God bless.

I agree, your kitty probably has worms. However, it could be a condition of impacted stools. Either way, your kitty needs to see a vet as soon as she can. Worms are a very destructive parasite.

I am so sorry that someone could be so inhumane as to shoot another person's pet without a second thought. It is a cruel world that we live in. I do not blame you for being worried but it is your decision as a pet owner how to protect your pet. Myself, I have raised many pets over the years...

One possible option to this is to try using a baby fence to seperate two rooms. The dog and cat can get accustomed to seeing one another and begin to feel comfortable with each other's presence. It also helps maintain the safety of your pets while trying to unite the two into a family.

I'm sorry to hear about Shadow being sick. As pet parents we all seem to panic and try to diagnos our babies. We feel at a loss for how to care for or what to do when it comes to a sick animal and even sometimes guilty. First thing you need to do though is seek the advise of a vet. It may...
