    Cat Trees

    Check out the boxed 3 shelf cat tree found at Walmart, it is very sturdy & is on a spring loaded extension pole it is EZ to install, I have 3 of them up & priced at about $40.00 compared to the very $$$ free standing ones they have held up just as well ( my cat swings about on them like a kid on...

    still trying to figure out how much to feed the cat now that he's on wet food.

    Just like us, we tend to overindulge when we like the flavor,texture especially if it's right in front of us. Food is the ultimate "drug", it's a bonus that he prefers wet food, may not seem like that now though! Yea, I know about hot it was 115* last week.

    Wet food brand suggestion?

    Sorry I don't have the knowledge or 1st hand experience with a cat suffering from kidney issues. Please be cautious with some posters suggestions of what & how to care for Titan. 99.9% of the posters on TCS do know what they are talking about & will give you excellent guidance. This is just a...

    still trying to figure out how much to feed the cat now that he's on wet food.

    I have a stupid question, are the cans that you are using 13.2 oz or 5.5 oz? If the cans are 13.2 oz & your feeding 1/2 a can a day + 1/4 cup of dry that would be approx. 300+ cals a day, perhaps cut back the dry to 1/8 ( 2 level tablespoons not heaping, or one level coffee scoop not heaping )

    cat pooping on carpet problem

    I agree with all of the above, and adding that it could be a health code violation keeping a cat & cat litter box in a restaurant.

    cooling a cat with water

    Well yes, would they appreciate your efforts, not so much. If you think that your cat is to hot, try giving your cat the choice of a cooler surface to lie down on. Granite tiles or counter tops, ceramic tiles or floors usually stay much cooler than the ambient room temp.

    kitty picks up meat with his claw to bring it to his mouth

    OMG. How endearing, do you know if she started this behavior by observing other cats or is this all her own charming ritual.

    Peeing problem - HELP!

    Just a thought,since she has been checked out by her vet & I assume that did include a in office urinalysis and nothing was found to be wrong. Sometimes cats don't like the depth,texture or scent of a cat litter, maybe she has a sore paw and it at times hurts to dig in her litter box. Have you...

    The worst ingredients in cat foods

    I would choose lead, as it is a heavy metal that has the potential to cause brain damage.

    Peeing problem - HELP!

    Could she be standing in the box but not squatting? Some cats just don't squat & the urine shoots right over the side of the box, at times a foot or more away.

    Which is the better choice: super premium dry food only or mid-quality dry food + cheap wet food?

    Since you asked, if it were me, I would go with the Orijen because the cost of the imported canned is so high & a lot of the canned cat foods for sale in Asia are fish heavy. My answer will not be very popular with most posters on this site, sometimes we humans tend to over think things. Stick...

    Simply Nourish

    Thank you, I had figured that the Authority brand from petsmart was probably a Menu foods product. I had hoped that the new " upscale " brand  Simply Nourish was a Weruva stepchild. I just didn't think that Menu foods would turn out a product that looks so good, real meat chunks, shredded...

    ARSENIC in pet food???!!!

    I feel that she might just thrive on being a bit of a rebel alarmist, sorta reeks of the EWG ( environmental working group.) I would have a lot more admiration for her watchdog alarms if she didn't charge for the findings. Information is a powerful weapon, it should be shared for non com gratis...

    What litter do you use?

    I filled up all of the large cracks in my concrete driveway with a 40# bag of bentonite kitty litter, it's still holding strong 3 years later!

    What litter do you use?

    I can't risk any exposure to silica dust so I use a clumping corncob litter, well actually my cat uses the litter.

    AVMA to vote to take a stand against raw feeding

    Oh gads! I don't know how to edit my own post, the statement above should been mutilating a cat is not the same as choosing blah,blah. I am 100% against de-clawing.
