    I need quick information! I was bit.

    So, yesterday afternoon, I decided to give my cats a bath. BAD IDEA. I was bit on my wrist and I'm pretty sure I have an impending infection. It's getting warm to the touch and is extremely sore. After looking up cat bites online, I'm freaking out and am taking my butt to a clinic today to...

    Upset- vent

    I'm not exactly new to this site, I used to post on it years ago, under a different screen name. Due to life circumstances, I stopped, and now I'm dealing with a situation and knew this would be the place to ask for advice. This will be a long story/post, so I appreciate it if you make it...

    Peeing under the bed- resolved.

    I'm not sure if this has been discussed before, but I thought I'd throw it out as an idea to keep cats from going to the bathroom under the bed. So about a month ago, I posted about how I was having trouble keeping my kitten Ares, from peeing and pooping under the bed. He would use the litter...

    He poops underneith the bed.

    So, we got Ares almost 2 weeks ago and up until a couple of days ago, everything was great. So it started the other night, when we woke up, we noticed a poop smell that would not go away. We found the pile under the bed. It had apparently happened durring the night. The second night, we...

    The new guy.

    So we'd been thinking about getting another cat for months now, and after a trip to our local shelter, we came home with Ares. He was dumped at the shelter and they think he's between 8-10 weeks old. This little guy is amazing. He's not been scared of anything the whole time he's been here...

    How to keep it from getting even more ruined?

    So hubby and I bought a sleigh bed a couple of years ago before the cats were in the picture. Problem is that while we are sleeping they like to jump up there. This wouldn't be a problem if the edge headboard had a nice level surface to jump onto, but it's not. It's like a slope. So what...

    photo shoot gone bad

    So today it was nice and sunny out. I decided to utilize the natural light coming in our sliding glass door to take some nice pictures of the kitties. It started out good. This is Nova just waking up from her nap. Nova crawls out of bed to bask in the sun. So this is when it turns bad...

    Would it be stupid for us to get another cat? Background info: My husband and I live in a one bedroom apartment with 2 cats already. Our apartment isn't small, but it isn't huge either. In a year or so we are planing on moving out of here and buying a house. Our financial situation isn't...

    Those of you with littermaid boxes...

    Do you line the waste containers with bags to get the most use out of them? How well does that work? I can't find the liners anywhere around here and am going to have to break down and buy some liners on the internet and came across this http://cgi.ebay.com/PERMANENT-WASTE-...QQcmdZViewItem...

    A few questions about feeding routines

    I'm thinking about stopping the free-feed thing I have going on with my cats, but was just curious how much food, how many times a day people feed their cats. So if I could please have you answer the following questions- How old is your cat? How much does your cat weigh? Is your cat...

    She's so goofy!

    Luna has got to be the goofiest cat I've ever met. We're constantly laughing at stuff that she does. It may sound weird, but I think she has a great sense of humor. I took out my hot curler the other day to do my hair, and Luna decided that the too small for her box was a BLAST to play in...

    Question about Sammy

    One of my mothers cats, which she found as a feral stray has very strong pointed markings. She befriended him, brought him inside, neutered him, and named him Sammy. So I have a couple of questions. What would his coloring be called? We think he may be lilac point. Also, my Luna and Nova...

    the pouchy thing cats get

    So, I've got my cats and they're around 7 months old. In the past, with other cats we've had, as they got older they got a little pouchy flap of skin right infront of their back legs. We all ways called it their dingle-dangle. Well, Nova has recently developed quite a large one. I'm not sure...

    Where do you put the poo?

    When you scoop your litter boxes, where do you put the waste? I've been using gallon size ziplock bags and filling them to the top, then pitching them. Also, if I have any other kind of container that is going to be thrown away, like coffee cans, I'll fill those before I throw them away too...

    How can I keep them off...

    my window screens! They've discoved they can climb them. They only do it if they see a bug or something outside, but it's becoming a problem. I looked up last night and Nova was half way up our screen door. It's starting to cause some stress on the screen and the screen is starting to gab on...

    Make your own litterbox

    I read a while ago about the idea of taking a rubbermaid tub and turning it into a extra large litter box. Luna is very picky about a clean litter box and the small one seemed to get too full of waist for her in no time. We moved not too long ago and had quite a few of these boxes left over...
