My cat Fizz Gig is 5 years old. She is part Maine coon. She gets 3 cups of grain free dry food a week (for 7 days). She gets one or two treats a month and no people food. She will not touch wet food, won't lick the gravy or anything and I've tried every brand I can find. She weighed about 18...

He is beautiful, she has had a few baths (due to fleas, we had a horrible flea problem last call). She doesn't like them and cries the whole time but let's me do them. She rarely gets mats that's why I was surprised to find a few at the same time. Mostly she gets hers on her back near her tail...

By the way those two are gorgeous! Here is a picture of my "little" girl.

Thank you that's what I've been doing with the ones on the back of her legs. Another question that occurred to me, I worked at a dog kennel for 13 years and work at a horse barn now so my sense of smell sucks especially when it comes to things like poop and pee....could the new mats on her butt...

My cat who is a partial Maine coon and therefore a long hair, has started to get mats in the long hair on the backs of her legs and tonight I noticed she has new mats on her butt. The mats on her butt are a little stinky but I don't see any poop in them. She is good about letting me brush her...

Thank you for the reply, she did pee about 330pm and it was a normal amount (about a fist sized clump of litter). She is eating and drinking normally. Even though we have other cats I have her in my bedroom by herself in order to keep track of how much she's eating, drinking, and using the box...

Hi! I had a similar experience, my 4 year old female cat peed on my bed unexpectedly Thursday night, took her to the vet Friday and they said she didn't have a uti but had crystals in her urine (didn't say what kind). They have me switching her to c/d multicare urinary stress dry food. They did...

My 4 year old cat peed on my bed Thursday night and it was a large pee. Friday afternoon I took her to the vet thinking she had a uti. No uti but they did see a lot of crystals in her urine. I purchased one of their prescription foods that they recommended and am in the process of switching her...

Yea we have one of the baby gates( exactly like the one you have pictured) with the cat door in it and our dog who is anAustralian shepherd border collie mix can squeeze through that tiny door!!!! So we have to let the cats jump over yea baby gate but it is worth the money cause it's still easy...

I would say its a dominance thing. We have 3 cats who are all about 3 years old and while they used to play together when they were younger there is a definite ranking among them now. My sisters cat Bee is definitely at the top, he does the exact behaviors you are describing to my (much larger...

Definitely agree with the baby gate!! They work wonders, while we don't have issues with the cats and the dog getting along we use them to prevent the dog from getting to the litter boxes that she feels have tasty treats. Not only do the baby gates provide barricades but they are a good way to...

petcrazy76 thanks for your reply :). Bee has no problems going in any of the litter boxes, in fact he tries to be the first one to use the any of the litter boxes as soon as they are scooped/changed, even if we scoop/change all 3 at the same time he still tries to use all 3 before any of the...

Hi everyone! So my sisters and I each have a cat: I have a female cat named Fizz Gig, my sister Jessie has a male cat named Rebel, my sister Shannon has a male cat named Bee (all 3 about 3 years old and we have had them since they were little). A little over a year ago my parents brought my...

We have used Feliway and other similar products that do the same job, the most expensive is a room diffuser (about $50 here) which covers an entire room and lasts for about a month before you have to buy refills (don't remember the cost), there are also calming collars (about $15 a piece here...

Thanks for all of your helpful advice, we have been  cleaning any sprayed spots with Natures Miracles odor eliminator and did buy one of the room diffusors, we also bought the calming collars for 3 of the 4 cats (one of them has been a perfect angel and spends time with everyone with no fights...

Something else you can try is a calming collar, my cat freaked when I was gone for a month house sitting for someone else and she peed and pooed on my parents bed, we got a calming collar and it seems to help. The ones I use are about $15 and use scents like lavender to create a calmer cat. It...

You could try Natures Miracle Calming spray, this has helped with a cat we have that has been spraying around our house, the  only downside is that you have to spray it whenever she is roaming around the house, as for the fish tank issue.......I am guessing that she is jumping up on the top of...

Yea I actually was just looking into those and we will probably try them if the vet doesn't find anything, only down side is that means that Tuffy will have to continue to keep him locked up in the den when no one is home, our eventual goal is for everyone to get along well enough that they can...
