Ick, what an unpleasant problem for you both. Sounds like a trip to the vet is in order. Litterbox-trained cats often defecate in strange places when they've got some sort of intestinal problem going on (could be many different things: consipation, parasites, stomach infection, etc). If it is...

Sounds like there's never a boring moment with quirky Pinky. I've got a Maine Coon who likes the same sort of rough, heavy-handed pats -- repetitively, right above the tailbone. Sort of like the way some dogs like being patted, in my experience. He'll purr like a kitten, tilt his ears back...

Thank you, all, for the helpful suggestions! My fiance built a little jungle-gym for our our old-man cat, Louie, when we first moved in here (he's a bit of a squirrely bloke and enjoys having a place up high to "spy" on lesser life forms)... but it seems to have turned into a flophouse! When...

Agreed! Nothing unusual/worrisome about this behavior; she just seems to really enjoy your companionship and wants you to know it. Maybe she sees you as her human littermate, of sorts. The sweetest cat I ever had used to give me a "face cleaning" like this when I was sick or tired enough to...

Thank you for the replies! He's lived in the same location since we first took him home as a kitten, and originally settled right in; Bean never had a problem until the past year and it began quite suddenly, but I'm wondering if that might have something to do with his increased adult size...

Sounds like he's just having fun. I've had two kittens who'd do this from time to time, too, and eventually they grew out of it. If he's making a big mess, maybe consider buying one of those little "feeder" toys -- where you fill a ball with treats, and when he rolls it, a tiny piece comes out.

Hello, all. Thank you for visiting my thread. I'm new here, so I hope I don't mess this up! My fiance and I have been the owners of an incredibly goofy 2 1/2-year old stray, Bean, since he was about 6 months old. He was an extremely affectionate kitten -- would literally run across a room to...
