I have what sounds like the exact same problem with our cat! It looks like she's been crying. Please advice?!?

Our darling cat, Emily Dickinson, was found as a skittish feral 5 month old kitten. Now, 3 years later, she is the sweetest, cuddliest, most beautiful, purriest cat in the world. She is still a little shy with strangers, but is an absolute darling. She is an indoor cat. She has only seen other...

Here is a complicated situation: 1.5 years ago: found feral kitten: 4 months old?, took her home 1 year ago: young cat is fully tame, purring and cuddly and able to be picked up. She is fixed. Early August: move from Europe to Midwest to Granny's attic. Feliway had been plugged in for a month...

We found our cat alone in a warehouse as an extremely timid 4-ish month old feral. Over the past year and a half, she has made leaps and bounds and is a total cuddle bunny. But, I'm feeding a neighbor's cat this week, and realized that all of the other cats we know are less claw-y. Our little...

It looks like we are moving from the UK to the midwest in the USA in August. It will require 2 flights. Our cat is coming with us, obviously. But I am really worried about how to do it to minimize the stress. Please help! Here are my concerns: 1. In cabin or in the hold? 2. Hire an expensive...

Our cat is an indoor cat and will be nearly 2 years old in August. We are relocating and it will require 2 flights taking about 12 hours total. Our cat has only traveled short distances to the vet. We are anticipating this being a horrific experience for all involved. But what can we do to make...

(i hit post before finishing). She seems normal, but this behavior is new. Should we be worried?

Our cat is about 14 months old. Lately, she has been gnawing at our ikea shoe racks.

Nearly a year ago, we trapped a kitten at my work. I work in a warehouse that, at the time, was adjacent to two massive construction sites. No other cats or kittens were to be found. We assume she was about 4 or 5 months old. My husband and I took the terrified cat home to our small flat and let...

We have a bit of a sweater eating moth problem that needs to be fixed . It seems that mothballs are toxic to cats. Any effective but nontoxic solutions? We live in a small flat and the top of the moth infested wardrobe is kitty s fav resting spot.

I have resolved to start trimming our dear cuddle bunnys claws. I will use food as rewards, obviously. But what tool do you use? Links to pictures please. She has light coloured claws so it is easy to make sure that I dont get the quick.

EEeek! I hadnt put it into $ (my native currency). This woman was cheap compared to some other people I spoke with. We live in London, so Im sure that is part of it.

Do you? Not declawing, but just trimming. Our cat is an indoor cat.

Normally we have our neighbors cat sit, and we take care of their cat when they are gone. But we were doing lots of traveling recently and didnt want to burden them with it. So, we hired a young woman who works at our vet. We recently paid her £225 for 19 days of cat sitting.

We found our kitten in a warehouse next to 2 building sites when she was roughly 16 weeks old. She was petrified of us for months, but very slowly gained confidence. Food bribes and wand toys were key. We have had her for nearly a year, and she is a total cuddle bunny. She leaps into our laps...

It sounds like you are doing a great job! Here are a few more body language tricks that we ve found working for us and our dear little feral beast... Make your hand into a fist. This looks like a cat head and a cat is more likely to approach that than an outstretched hand (it looks like...

Thanks for the help! 1. I can feel her ribs 2. You can clearly see a waist line from above 3. She gets 133g of wet food 3x a day. I think this is about 9oz a day. 4. I will try to get her on a scale, but it is like herding cats. 5. she won't be going to the vet for basically a year. On her...

We found our kitten in the spring, when she was stray and/or feral and very hungry. Now she is tame and cuddly. We think she will be a year old in December. She seems to be eating a lot these days and is generally looking a bit thicker. We feed her 1/3 of a can 2x a day. She always has some dry...

Our dear cat/old kitten is about 10 or 11 months old. Both my husband and I have noticed extra gnawing in the past week or so. Could she be teething?

I think what Emily does is more chewing. She is obviously in a good mood when she does this, all purring and cuddly. My in-laws cat properly bit me which turned into a fun trip to the emergency room in Germany and that is not what Emily Dickinson is trying to do.
