    Cat keeps chasing/eating flies

    Whenever I have my windows open (cause it's nice out), I get a lot of flies in the house for some reason. There are screens in all of the windows so I'm not sure how they are getting in. Anyway, my cat Midnight goes nuts when he sees a fly and stalks it all over the house and eats the damn...

    For those of you with a pet stroller

    I've been thinking about getting one. But my concern is that the cats will like being outside enough that they will try to run outside whenever I open the door. What has been your experience?

    One cat responds to his name, one doesn't. Now what?

    I adopted a second kitten well over a month ago. Has it even been 2 months? Anyway, the little guy still won't respond to his name, like won't even turn his head when I call his name. He is probably about 6 to 7 months old now. My other one is between 7 and 8 months old. He does respond to his...

    Anyone in Chicago interested in a female siamese/persian?

    My neighbor has a siamese/persian that he is looking to rehome. He took her in sometime before Christmas. He has a 6-7 year old siamese girl that has been living in the house since she was a baby. Apparently the two girls haven't been getting along well at all. He told me tonight that he is...

    When to start feeding a kitten adult food?

    My vet told me after I had Midnight neutered that I should start him on adult food because once they get neutered they tend to gain weight faster. He is like 6 months old now. I just adopted a kitten on Sunday and he's about 5 months old. I've been feeding them this one food in a green back...

    Micky 1995-2010

    In 1995, I had moved into an apartment with my then boyfriend, leaving my parents for the first time. My bf was working all the time, he had a job that made him work long days and nights and most weekends. I was bored, I wanted a companion. I love cats, I had left my 2 family cats behind with...

    How do I know what to do?

    I got the news a while ago about my cat Micky possibly having lymphoma about a month ago. I decided not to put him through the trauma of additional vet visits and have been trying to do my best to keep him comfortable. He just turned 15 on Feb 5. He has stopped eating and drinking, so I've...

    Siamese - 2 girl kitties

    There's a guy I know who has 2 cats, both girls, both siamese. I've never had one of those but I hear they're way smart! Anyway, he has had the first one like 6 years and the new one has only lived there about 6 weeks. I understand it's harder to introduce a female in a house with another...

    Possibly lymphoma, don't know what to do!

    My older cat Micky (14) has been losing weight. Last year he was about 19 lbs and he is down to 12. He was still eating but a lot has happened in the last year, so I attributed it to stress. When I brought in a new kitten that I rescued, he got sick with a cold. That was at the end of...

    Update - so far so good

    I posted a couple of weeks ago about a kitten I was saving and taking in with my 14 year old boy kitty. I took him to the vet (it's definitely a boy) and had blood tests to make sure he didn't have lukemia or fiv or whatever and that came out normal, yay! He had fleas but no ear mites. Got...

    Someone tell me it's going to be ok?

    Hi everyone. My first post here. I posted this on another pet forum but I don't know how long it will take to get a response, so I'm posting here, too. I'm sorry this is so long but I really need some reassurance! Please! I have a male cat who is 14. I used to have another female cat who was...
