I recently adopted a young male cat, who appeared to be having occasional asthma attacks when playing or sleeping (he's had two, a few weeks apart). Head down, neck stretched out, tongue sticking out, rasping noises -- looked EXACTLY like any YouTube video of a cat having an asthma attack. But...

Two months ago, I adopted an adolescent cat, who is now eight months old. And kind of driving me a little nuts. He wants attention *constantly* -- follows me everywhere winding around my feet, constantly trying to jump on my lap whenever I'm sitting (I've started locking him in the bathroom...

My new foster cat twitches his tail while I'm petting him. He'll be stretched out on his side, purring and tail going "thump thump thump" on the couch... The only two meanings for a twitching tail I know are "I'm hunting" (he's definitely not) or "I'm annoyed". I'm particularly aware of the...

My new kitty had an upper respiratory infection, and in addition to the antibiotics from the vet, I put him in his carrier in the bathroom with the shower running so he could breathe some steam... (had the carrier up on the toilet, not *in* the shower...) I came back to check on him later and...

Next week, after the shelter spays her, I am hoping to bring home a not-yet-named brown tabby girl. I am really, really scared it's not going to work out. She seems like a great kitty, just wanted to sit in my lap and be lovey, was gentle and cooperative when I trimmed her nails, and when I...

Hi! I hope it doesn't sound too weird to say this, but... I like to color-coordinate my furniture and wardrobe with my cat! I had a black cat who shed and shed and SHED, and found it was easier to just give in and get a black futon cover and wear dark shirts instead of obsessively furminating...

Three months ago, I sponsored my beloved kitty to go to a sanctuary because his litterbox problems were more than I could handle any more. We'd been to three vets and two behaviorists and he was still getting worse, not better... After a few months, I decided to start looking for another cat...

Whenever I take a bath, if I forget to close the bathroom door to keep him out, Moose climbs onto the toilet and meows frantically and *loudly* at me! It is much louder and more insistent than the "I'm hungry" meow or the "I don't want to be in the carrier" meow -- the *only* time I ever hear...

I have a wonderfully, incredibly affectionate two-year-old neutered male cat named Moose. He "talks" to me in little chirps and coos, he meets me at the door when I come home... any time he's awake and not playing, he wants to be with me, on my lap or trying to drape himself over my shoulders...
