    Color Question

    I just rescued a persian kitten, but I don't know what she would be called. She has yellow eyes, tabby lines on the face and legs (like a tiger), but has tortie coloring. Any idea?

    Desperately Need Help

    A fellow breeder in my area recently contacted me in hopes that we could work together. After speaking with her on numerous occassions, I concluded that she was really nice but a little ill-informed. She has a learning disability, but shes thriving well(has 2 kids etc.) I figured that was...

    ugly little ears

    Vinnie, You should definitely take the cat to the vet. Don't forget that ringworm is transferable to humans!!!

    What would you do?

    Hey, I am so sorry that you are going through this, and nothing anyone can say will take away the pain you are feeling right now. At 17, your cat has lived a long life and has given you everything it had to offer. Now, you have to give him something very special- something so important that it...

    Question from a first timer

    Some people like your neighbor, probably dosn't have any real idea on what the overpopulation situation is like. She is probably going to get defensive if you try to talk to her about spaying, and having the cat spayed while in your care is a devious thing to do. Suggestion: gather a bunch of...

    Stud Tail

    Stud tail happens in some un-neutered male cats. It is an over abundance of oils/pheremones that collects on the skin and hair at the base of the tail. This also can happen on other cats in areas of the body that excrete these pheremones such as under the chin, cheeks etc. Stud tail can...

    Pregnant mother

    Dixie: I have read all the posts, and I am glad you took in a stray kitty to help her out. If your state says that you can release the kittens at 8 weeks - than feel free to do so. Just make sure that the kittens are healthy, using the litter box, eating solid foods, and are developmentally up...

    Stud Tail

    Hello, I recently purchased a cat who had what is referred to as stud tail. I tried to clear the tail up myself to no avial, so I went to a vet. She said that I would have to neuter him, and that was the only treatment/prevention. Obviously, I didn't want to do that so I went to another vet...

    Persian?

    Hello, It is normal for persians to tear and almost every persian does. The degree of tearing can vary from cat to cat, but as long as its clear and shows no sign of inflamation or infection - the cat is absolutely normal.

    Persian?

    Hello, Your friends persian is known as an "odd-eyed white persian". This is perfectly normal and acceptable in show circles. The only time your friend should be concerned about the cats health is if there is any puss or leakage, the pupils are of unequal size, the eyes shake spontaneously, or...

    Pregnant cat

    When cats are in labor they are sometimes very restless and will start panting and meowing nonstop. You will definitely know when its time. My cat was in labor for 14 hours before she delivered her first kitten. Before you move, keep the cat and kittens in a comfortable box lined with soft...

    doll face persian

    I don't understand why breeding doll-faced persians or himalayans would be a dis-service to the breed. In the beginning, persians and himalayans were doll-faced. Now that people have been breeding persians and himalayans with flat faces, look at all the problems they are prone to have - which...

    doll face persian

    Upon great research, I have discovered that the term "doll-faced" is used to describe a persian cat with a face that actually protrudes from the skull. Alot of cat associations register these cats because they are purebred persians, however they are not considerd "show" cats. The flat faced...
