ok... so im in my office and i hear lapping noises. I go to kitchen and Quinne is licking her lips and getting off the stove top as I enter. Earlier I had made tacos with a seasoning packet. Garlic is 11th in the ingredients list. I'm freaking the eff out because I know cats and garlic don't...

I adopted a new cat a few weeks ago. He was a stray coming from a foster home and before that the streets. He is very sweet and gentle and very happy to be in a home. He 'love bites' though and I mean hard. He drew blood the last time (not a lot) and it really hurt. He can be kind of skiddish...

I currently have two cats and am adopting another to get the kitty population back up to three. Last time I introduced new cat to the others one at a time and worked out well.  I was wondering if I should use this technique again or if New cat should meet Old cats all at once? And yes I know...

My cat Odessa went blind a few days ago. They're figuring it out. I mostly brought her back in to vet because she seem to be losing a lot of weight. The first night was really hard. She kept bumping into things and walking through our TV stand. She seems to get disorientated easy and walks...

I took my 1.5yr old semi-ferral cat to the vet today. Although she loves to play, she's very sweet. Until she goes to the vet. She's afraid of the vet (which is why they had to sedate her prior to examination) but thats not why I'm posting. She's very hostile towards me. Not my husband or the...

My one cat Odessa started limping last night. She's mostly sedentary and has never been able to jump (so I know its not from falling off anything). How long should I give this before calling my vet? She's still eating and using box. She's not coming out from under the couch as much but that...

When we have to take Odessa to the vet (or anywhere else) one person usually just holds her and the other person drives. I've never been able to get her in a carrier (yes I know, you're thinking, "What could be so bloody difficult about pushing a cat inside a carrier). My usually friendly and...

im having a situation with 2 of the 3 cats i have. My one year old (Quinne) won't get the hint that my 4 year old (Odessa) doesnt want to play. Odessa wants to be left alone and even with all the scratches shes acquring Quinne is just not getting it. Maybe she doesnt  care. Maybe she loves to...

This is cross-posted in Health too (in hopes someone would tell me what kind of scratch necessitates a vet visit). I'll try to make this as short and to the point as possible. I have 3 cats: Odessa 4, Norah 11, Quinne just passed 1 year in January. Quinne will not stop trying to play or fight...

I'll try to make this as short and to the point as possible. I have 3 cats: Odessa 4, Norah 11, Quinne just passed 1 year in January. Quinne will not stop trying to play or fight or whatever she's doing with Odessa. Prior to getting Quinne I read that getting a younger cat will be better for...

http://www.thecatsite.com/t/238388/how-to-tell-if-it-is-indeed-a-stray-or-just-an-indoor-outdoor-with-id Above was my first post about him. I'm calling him Elliott. Anyhow, my downstairs neighbor was going to foster him for me since I really don't have the space but here's how that got messed...

About 2 months ago I saw this little guy wandering around the library where I work. Then about one week later a garbage bag on my fire escape was torn with food/etc scattered everywhere. At first I thought it was a raccoon or something, but the very next day I made the connection and his...

I adopted a semi-feral kitten in July. I was originally told she was 3 months old but as it turns out, she was born in probably January of this year, so when I adopted her, she was already near 7 months old. She was abandoned in a crackhouse when the former tenants left in a hurry. And in the...

Currently Odessa and Norah were eating FF and some 9L. I finally am ready to put a stop to that. I've tried this twice in the past only to feel like I have no choice than to give them what they were eating. Odessa originally gave me a really hard time when switching her from dry to wet. I...

I have three cats and want to eventually get them all on something other than 9 Lives or FF. When I had just the two adults I tried Weruva but they didnt want it!!! I thought they would go crazy over chicken that actually looks like chicken but alas I was very wrong and ended up taking them...

Okay, so here is my problem: Norah has been having intermittent diarrhea and loose stools. I transitioned my at the time two cats to wet. For a time I was attempting to put them on higher wet quality like Weruva but it was hit or miss and they both didnt seem to like it as much (or eat as much)...

So here's the deal: I have three cats, all female, one 8 months (Quinne), one 10yrs (Norah), and one 3yrs (Odessa). Odessa gets annoyed with Quinne's shenanigans, but doesn't seem to really dislike her. Norah plays with Quinne a lot but since she's 10, but when she wants to be mellow, she wants...

There's a guy in my townhouse building with a very cute calico kitty Tabitha. She is the sweetest thing, just purrs, purrs, purrs around everything (including but not limited to just me). He's an alright guy I guess, nice enough to have a beer with once in a while, plus I have cats and he has a...

Until a few months ago, I'd never had a kitten (only full grown cats). I brought her home from her spay appt. today (it was done this am) and I'm worried she's going to lick through her sutures. The tech assured me that this was pretty uncommon because they don't like the taste of the sutures on...

okay. So, the past few days it seems as though I have to remind Odessa to eat. The title of my post aside, i don't have to "force" not forcing, but her food will be put out and she doesn't touch it (unusual for her) so I dab a bit in front of her face, then she licks it off my finger, then she...
