It's been a while since I posted in the forum but I wanted to see what kind of reaction I'd get to this. This is a somewhat lengthy post but well worth it when one considers the subject matter. We've all had those moments when we've wondered just what is going on inside our cat's head and how...

I don't know what has happened to the search bar in this forum so forgive me if this is posted elsewhere. Does anyone have any experience with these collars that emit an ultrasonic pulse to repel fleas? I'd like to know how well they work if at all. I'm sick of putting these chemical compounds...

I haven't posted in the forum lately due to the fact that I've been busy reconfiguring my system. I just finished today and thought I would share some information with you. Ever since I've had my Ragdoll Snowman he has had intermittent stomach problems which usually manifested as a loose stool...

Anyone know anything or have any experience with this website? http://www.petshed.com/ They are an Australian based business but appear to be a reputable firm. Prices are good even allowing for freight. Your opinions are welcome.

Anyone familiar with this brand of cat litter? It is sold on the Petsmart website but I've been able to find out precious little information on it. Any help is appreciated.

My Ragdoll Snowman occasionally walks up to the water dish and begins to vigorously paw at it and the area surrounding the bowl not stopping until he's sloshed a fair amount in the floor-then he drinks from the bowl. He doesn't do it all the time and if he hears me say there is water in the...

My Ragdoll Snowman occasionally gets some very obstinate mats in his hair that I can't even cut out. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to untangle very fine and VERY MATTED hair? If you have any suggestions or can point me to a thread it will be very much appreciated. I brush him...

Any thoughts on whether or not I should continue to keep my strictly indoor cats current on their vaccinations? I know there are cases where vaccines are contraindicated in humans why not cats? I worry about the potential risks. All feedback is appreciated.

Is there a better way to insure compliance on L-Lysine administration. I am currently pouring it on top of their dry food but most of it settles to the bottom of the dish. Would it be better to disslove it in their water? If so, how much and does it have a bitter taste? Many thanks.

My cat is a spayed two year old female with no health problems. She eats heartily (Royal Canin and Eukanuba dry) and drinks filtered water. She is also regular in her no toilet habits-no problems with defecation or urination. That being said we notice that her urine seems to have "sour" or...

I'm contemplating the possibility of opening a no-kill shelter for cats in my area. The first and foremost concern will be satisfying the funding requirements. I have thought of applying for any and all applicable grants that might further me in this pursuit but I really don't know how or where...

As previously posted, I have a kitten named Rowdy. To say he is hyperactive is putting it mildly. He goes constantly. You can't pet him, pick him up, or do anything with him unless you wrap him in a blanket first. Then he goes to sleep instantly! A bit of background. I removed him from his...

Greetings! Currently I have but one cat-a six week old male-but come the fall I will be getting a Ragdoll. Both cats will be neutered but my concern is what is the best way to introduce them, to handle the litterbox arrangements, feeding times, etc. Any advice from you multi-catters out there...

Greetings all! My kitten Rowdy came to us when he was only five weeks old. He was a bit of a rescue case and that was the reason for the early separation. He is come along nicely during the time we have had him but he seems to have difficulty grooming his bottom. I don't know if it is youthful...

I have a six week old kitten who is evidencing a reluctance to drink water from his bowl and I am considering the purchase of a Petwell to see if that will entice him. Do these work, how often do you have to change the filters and are the filters expensive. Also does anyone know of someone...
