    What is the funniest thing your cat has done?

    One of my cats has a pretty easy time jumping up on the window above the bathtub in my master bathroom. The other cat...not so much. She thinks, however that a running start might help and so she moves further and further back with each attempt, running around the bed, around the corner, up the...

    Giving pills?

    I second that! Great device! I was really nervous about having to pill my cat, but it turned out to be the easiest thing in the world. Lol, I just texted my son this morning telling him that the cat is either a pro or an addict. She even comes to me when I get the piller ready, maybe because...

    nail trim

    Are you nervous about it? Try to be calm and nonchalant...it's no big deal if you only get one nail. Keep at it and your cat might get used to it.  Also, try doing it in a quiet area of your house with no distractions. Or, if your cat is really into birdwatching, do it in front of a patio door...

    nail trim

    That's exactly how I do it and it seems to have a calming effect. I believe holding your cat up in your arms or even on your lap makes them want to jump and escape. Mine struggles like a maniac that way. But tugged between my legs and held down with my body works like magic for nail trimming...

    Clostridium Perfingens Enterotoxin?

    from what I have now heard from my vet and VT and from what I've seen online CPE conditions in cats are rare compared to dogs. Makes me wonder if my dog has something too or if he even had the spores in his system and introduced them to her as soon as she got here. Hmm, I don't even know how...

    nail trim

    Trimming your cat's nails (at least the front ones) is really something you can quite easily do yourself.  One of my two cats always struggled when I took her to the shelter where we can get free nail trims. One person would try to hold her while the other one did a quick clip-clip-clip.  Now...

    Clostridium Perfingens Enterotoxin?

    I may finally have an answer to my 8-month-old's chronic diarrhea.  Lulu has never had normal poop in the 5 months she's been with us. Several vet visits with fecal smears, an ELIZA(?) test, blood tests all showed nothing. We changed her food, thinking she might be allergic to chicken, finally...

    Is this normal?

    Maybe let the water run a bit in the bathroom...it works for me I think cats have more willpower an some humans. Hopefully Cynder will come around.

    Took off the E-collar and bloody mucous on her stool. :(

    Hoping it's just a fluke. Lucky she kept her present uncovered for you though

    How do cats wake you up?

    *sigh* Lulu wakes me up every morning by going to the litterbox in my bathroom. Since she has loose stool and tends to step in it at night you can bet on it that I'm wide awake with the first "scratch". Let's just say I've been running on fumes lately

    Then and Now

    I think you are *almost* correct...he was a super cute kitten. And he's quite a handsome guy now, ful of character. I love seeing all these pics, keep them coming

    Adopt-A-Less-Adoptable-Pet Week!

    Personally I have never understood why black cats (and dogs?) are less in demand. I think they are gorgeous I hope that this week is super successful
