    Petting aggression or ????

    We have 2 cats, one male(Pekoe) and one female(Chai). The female is about 5 years old and the male is 6. Both cats used to sleep with us but on occasion Pekoe would attack Chai and chase her off the bed, maybe once a month to the point where Chai no longer sleeps with us. I took it as Pekoe...

    5 year old male cat throwing up.

    So here's the history. He's been eating kirkland brand dry food which he only seemed to throw up if he ate too much or had a hairball. We took him to the vet and had him checked out but he couldn't find anything. Lately it has been getting more frequent so we thought maybe the food wasn't...

    questions about raw food diet

    I have been thinking about switching our cats wet canned food out for a raw food diet. I know it is WAY healthier for them but the problem is they don't. I have tried feeding the odd piece of raw meat to our cats while preparing dinner for our selves just to see if they like it. I've tried...

    Our male cat meyowling

    Just in the last couple days our male cat has started yowling in the evening. I was wondering if a female cat in heat could have any effect on a neutered male. For example we got home from dinner at 7:30 and he has been at it constantly since we got home and it is now 10:00.

    Hide and seek/tag

    Does anybody else do this with their cat? Our male "Pekoe" loves to play like this. It usually starts with me walking by and he just starts running from me. Then I start to chase him and he runs and hides usually in our bedroom or the spare bedroom. I catch him and then turn and run and hide and...

    burying waste in litter box.

    Our male cat does something kinda strange. If he uses the litter box he doesn't bury his solid waste. If he goes outside he digs a deep hole and goes then covers it up. Could he be doing this as a way of saying the litter box is his?

    Noises that attract cats.

    Just curious how everybody calls their cats. I know when I call them outside I make this noise "pssst, pssst, pssst" repeatedly and I have pretty much every cat in the neighborhood show up. I know there are people here that are going to say "Your cats shouldn't be outside in the first place" ...

    Question about inner eyelids.

    So a little over a week ago I noticed that our female cat Chai couldn't open her inner eyelids all the way. It makes her look kinda cross eyed. So we took her into our vet and had her checked out and he felt it could be allergies or some sort of bacterial thing. He gave her a shot of...

    swollen upper lip?

    One of our cats has this reoccurring problem where her lip swells up and gets quite red. It's looks very painful but she still eats normally and drinks normally. We have tried various foods and we still have the same problem thinking it was allergies. She gets her water from a drinking fountain...

    Here we go again...

    Back in may we took our cat Chai in to have her left rear knee operated on because her kneecap wasn't staying in place. Well now it looks like her right rear kneecap is acting up. Well at least that's what we suspect. She's been limping around on it on and off all day today and I have a funny...

    I was wondering if there were any Canadians in here that could recommend a store that sells pro-biotics and a brand  for our cat? She just had surgery on her knee and is going to be on anti-biotics. Thanks in advance...

    sick after vaccine booster?

    We took our cat of 15 weeks in for the recommended vaccine boosters yesterday at about 1:30 pm for leukemia, rabies and FCPC (not quite sure what that is). The vet told me to keep an eye on him for a couple hours after to make sure there were no reactions, swelling, itching, redness. All was...

    Older kitten playing rough with younger kitten

    We have an 8 month old orange Tabby named Pekoe. He weighs in at a hefty 11 pounds of pure muscle, he's NOT fat at all. We recently decided that we would like to keep our eyes open for a companion for him and found a very cute little 4-5 month old Torby. She was a rescue so unfortunately we...
