    eating earbuds

    Quite a while ago I posted asking how to teach your cat to leave your earbuds alone. Well, I've found a way. All I had to do was wear them and whenever he went to bite the cord or grab them/it with his paw I would tap gently on his nose. He would instantly stop and when he came back again...

    earbud killer

    How do I get Eyvan to leave my earbuds alone? I use my mp3 at night to block out other sounds so I can sleep but he has some kind of weird passion for them and will try to get them every time opportunity presents itself. I have gotten him to stop doing other things by gently tapping him on...

    I think he feared for my life

    The kids had company over and they always stay up until insane hours so I was trying to keep the place quiet this morning. Eyvan decided he was going to come into the bathroom with me when I wanted to have a shower and I knew if I left him out he would just yowl until I came out and wake the...

    cat getting the flu

    Sorry, this seems like such a minor question. When Eyvan was a baby he had black crusties around his nose but when the vet checked him out he said he was fine. As he got older his nose cleared up. At the beginning of November our family picked up a flu bug and Eyvan suddenly got really...

We have laminate flooring so the only two places we can keep the water is in the bathroom or our very small kitchen so we took the pail out of...

    new cat tree

    Well, we just brought home a new cat tree. Even with the fantastic sale ($90 off) it was costly enough and what do you think is happening? Jasmine is staring at it suspiciously from across the room, Eyvan has discovered the box and is happy as a clam in there with no sign of coming back out...

    calming signals

    Do cats have a set pattern of calming signals that they use with each other? For example, dogs will look away from another dogs eyes, lick their lips, sit or turn their bodies away from another dog to show they're not interested in a fight or even a game. Do cats use something similar with...

    attached to the wrong person

    I really don't know anything about cats other than they are nothing like dogs so I hope someone can help with this. My teenage daughter got a kitten from my mother but he seems to have attached himself to me even though I haven't done anything to encourage his affection. Before we moved he...
