    Suggestions for the best OUTDOOR CAT houses- I started caring for 2 Strays & It's getting COLD!

    When you find the perfect shelter for your situation, here is an idea for bedding. I loosely stuff pillow cases with mylar sheets (emergency blankets). They retain body heat, are cheap, easy to take apart to clean, and kitties usually love laying on crinkly things. A pile of these in a small...

    grumpy kitty

    There are probably hundreds of things it could mean, but here's my story. Doobie fit your description. He could be super sweet, coming for cuddles purring all the way. Then wham! hiss, scratch, run! I kept thinking he had too much energy for me to handle. When he was about 1 1/2 we adopted a...

    Best way to store and warm up raw food?

    I used to freeze in quart containers. As needed, I would thaw a quart and refreeze in ice cube trays. My kitty was diabetic and needed frequent, small meals, so I would take out a couple of cubes for each meal. They thawed quickly and she didn't mind cool or cold food. If I needed to thaw out...

At first I was concerned that a toy would be a source of jealousy between my older kitties and new kitten, but when I brought out Da Bird and flipped it back and forth between them, they loved it. After that, the one of my older boys who had been just...

    Introducing my furries

    I want to begin the introduction of my furry family with a tribute to one of the most precious souls ever to draw breath. We lost our Weezer a couple of months ago. Her story began 12 years ago when a feral cat had a litter of five kittens in our boat. When she became aware that we had seen...

    Sleeping Kitties!

    These are all so cute, I'm back and forth between awwww and OMG! I don't have a photo, but Bingo sleeps wrapped around my head. I'm a pillow flipper, always looking for the cool spot. There is no cool spot with a kitten wrapped around your head. If I get up to go to the bathroom, he sits up and...

    Low Carb Wet Food Recommendations

    Whatever food you go with, I find I helpful to add a little water to the canned food. It helps kitty feel more full. Bit do be careful about trying to reduce his weight too fast. There is a formula somewhere that shows a safe weight loss goal.

    I Just Don't Know!!!

    If Casper is still sneezing, you can try l-lysine. You can buy this cheaply anywhere vitamins are sold. Crush a tablet in his food every day until the sneezing stops.
