What? How can it be toxic? Do you mean if they eat it? What kind of a cat would eat aluminum foil? I'm sure it would be toxic to humans also if we ate it.

Try lining your cupboards with tinfoil for a few days. When they jump up and step on the tinfoil it makes noise and scares them. Other people have suggested double sided sticky tape or just roll pieces of packing tape and stick them all over the counter for a while. They hate to step on...

Someone mentioned in another post cats seeing things when ther is really nothing there. How many of you believe that your cats see ghosts? Did you ever catch your cat staring up into a corner of the room for no aparent reason? My daughter (will be three January 11th) has been seeing ghosts...

I was gone for 10 days. I've been home for four days now and Sabrina still won't leave me alone. Every time I sit down she is right on top of me rubbing her wet nose in my ear. And my poor sick Simba is starting to be my suck again. Now that he is feeling better he has been very affectionate...

I've never heard of any pet sitting business here. If I would have been thinking I would have asked my babysitter to watch my kitties for me. She only lives half a block away from us. I know she is reliable, gosh, she has only been watching my kids for me for two years! We are so mad that we...

I think it is a very good idea to confine a cat to one room for the first few days in your home just until he gets used to being there. I think it is overwelming to let him roam the whole place the first day. After about two or three days allow him to roam the rest of the house and bring him...

Yeah, I was wishing that Kelly hadn't even got 2nd. She did look bitter that she didn't get 1st and I thought that she should have been happy to come in second in a World Idol competition. I'm also glad that Kurt won. He deserved it and he wasn't expecting it either. Kelly does shout a lot.

Simba started to eat on his own late Wednesday night. We were so relieved. He even drank a bit out of a bowl. At least we don't have to force feed him anymore. He hated that and probably figured, if this is what you are going to keep doing to me I might as well eat. At first he had to be...

Simba had crystals in his urine also. He wouldn't co-operate with the vet for a urine sample so he had to be sedated for that. That vet bill was a big one also, but he didn't require surgury. The vet put him on a diet of dry, medicated cat food. The medication disolved the crystals that were...

My sister's cat used to flush the toilet all the time just for fun.

You must go crazy trying to keep track of all those cats! I was constantly doing head counts when I had six cats for only a few weeks. I drove myself crazy worrying that one of the kids would crush a kitten under the rocking chair. But they all survived unscathed. I suppose after a while you...

I heard that you just cover one of your seats completely with seran wrap or something that will hold a cat up, and put litter on top. You teach your cat to go up there. Then eventually you make a little hole in the middle and gradually make the hole bigger and bigger. Soon you should be able...

Forgot to mention that there was lots of food left when we got home. I had no idea that they would go through that much water so fast - perhaps lots evaporated. We left out a huge bowl of water (plus I thought someone would be checking on them). And there is the fish tank and the toilet seats...

We have two cats and two litter boxes. We use the clay litter, not the scoop litter. So the entire box gets dumped and scrubbed out every 5 to seven days. And yes, I agree that it probably should be cleaned out more often than that. My husband is in charge of the litter boxes. The cats...

Thanks for all of your support. I went and picked up my kitty last night. btw.. his name is Simba - someone was asking. He is short hair, peach and white in colour. The other one is named Sabrina. She is short hair also, almost pure black with a white patch on her tummy. Anyway, he kind of...

What is it like to live with so many cats? I've noticed that many of you have LOTS of cats. And I thought that two cats might be too many! Two cats in the house gets crazy at times. They wrestle each other, knock things off the shelves, get into any food that gets left out, nag to get into...

The vet just called. The X-Rays earlier revealed my poor little sick kitty had a slightly enlarged heart and lungs. He seemed to be labouring a bit to breathe. So they did another $120.00 test to monitor his heart and breathing to check for heart disease. All tests so far have come back...

We recently rescued four kittens from a ditch this fall about two weeks before the snow came. They were only four weeks old and all had REALLY bad eye infections. Their eyes were glued shut with infection, they were starving, filthy, and cold. Something must have happened to the mama...

Mom of ten cats... do you really own 16 cats? If so, how do you afford to feed them all? Did they all get fixed and do they have their yearly vaccinations? Anyway, I think that is great that you are able to take care of that many cats. They all look very healthy and well taken care of. Our...

We just returned from Christmas vacation yesterday. We were gone for ten days. Our neighbours had a key to our house and assured us they would make sure everything was fine. They knew we had two cats, they have a cat of their own also. We called our neighbours on the fourth day to...
