Really? I didn't know that. Too bad now I live in Romania and can't find any around here...

My Cathleen also follows me to the bathroom and jumps on my lap. She also have to be there when I am bathing. If I take a shower she just sits there watching and Im in the bathtube she jumps on the edge of the tube and plays with the foam. When I lived in Japan I had a tabby that was a seaweed...

I have an 8~9 months old birman female cat and recently I was playing an irish whistle and she seemed to like the sound of it. She jumped on my lap and started to rub her face on the instrument. Another day I was playing a guitar and she started making some funny noises, something between...

My kitten Cathleen used to climb on a chair and from the chair to the table. First I tried the water bottle method but after a few times she just take the water on her face and smell at the bottle. Then I tried the double sided stick tape. I got too cardboard mats, put a few rows of stick tape...

Just as a curiosity about how prices can vary from country to country: When I lived in Japan I had my male cat neutered and the vet charged $150. Now I live in Romania and will have my female kitten spayed next month and the vet said it will cost me around $13.

I just got this kitten a couple of weeks ago and we seem to start to have the same problem. I am a "stay home" husband and I got this kitten to keep me company. I even picked the kitten while my wife was out of the town for a few days on business so that she would get used to me before meeting...

The interesting is that I put plates over two newspaper pages on the living room and when I moved them to the kitchen I put the same newspapers over the linoleum. And most interesting is that she doesnt dislike linoleum by itself. She likes to lay down on it! It seems she dislike only her food...

I got this kitten a few days ago and I first kept her in the living room only and introduced her to the rest of the apartment little by little. Today I decided its time to move her litter box to the bathroom and her food and water to the kitchen. First I moved the litter box. I just showed her...

And also there's Star Trek's Mr. Data one: Ode to Spot By Commander Data, Starfleet Felis Cattus, is your taxonomic nomenclature, an endothermic quadruped carnivorous by nature? Your visual, olfactory and auditory senses contribute to your hunting skills, and natural defenses. I find...

I've been sent this poem and thought you would like to read it. Ode to the Cat The animals were imperfect, long of tail, sorrowful of head. Little by little they got adjusted, made landscape, acquired spots, graces, flight. The cat only, the cat appeared complete and proud: born fully...

Thanks for the answer, people. In less than 24 hours I opened the door of the living room and let her explore the rest of the apartment and she's doing well. She is still a little hesitant to enter the kitchen and bathroom but the only place she enters without hesitation is, of course, the only...

Thanks for the answers. The employee of the place where I got my cat said she's been vaccinated but couldn't give me any medical records and couldn't tell me which vaccines she have taken. Next week I go back there to talk to the owner of the place to see if I can get the records or at least be...

Now? Isn't that too early? I just found this in a birman related page: "Neutering: Birmans don't mature until they are almost 3 years old! Part of a cat's personality is directly related to their sexual designation. We want the personality well established before we alter that sexuality. If...

I just got this new birman female kitten. She's about 2 months old. Could someone tell me at what age should I take her to be spayed and take her vaccines? Also, I heard that when introducing a kitten to her new home I should keep her in one room only for a while. How long should this while be...

Hello, Thanks for all the answers but now my quest is over. No, I didnt find the tabby that I wanted but this morning I was chosen by a very nice 2 months old birman female. By lunch time I had brought her home. As we arrived home she went straight hide under the sofa but by the end of the...

Thanks for the answers! I'm glad to know there's still hope for me to find my ideal friendly tabby :-) I was thinking of adopting a kitty rather than an adult because I want the cat to bond with me. I don't want to adopt an adult that has his personality set on being shy and as far away from me...

Are tabbies shier than other types of cats or is it just my impression? A few years ago I rescued a very young (probably 4 weeks old) orphan tabby cat. I didnt know anything about cat care so made many mistakes (I let him roam free, didn't neuter him, etc.) and he grew extremely shy and after a...
