    Dangerous foods for cats....in other countries?

    So many of us knows what foods we shouldn't feed cats-the standard chocolate, onion, grapes, raisins, garlic, etc. But does anyone know what other countries' "no-no list" is? I would think that each country has their own common food items that you shouldn't feed cats. I live in a Chinese...

    Are cat walks a good idea?

    I like to give some exercise and fresh air to my indoor only cat, so I take him outside everyday. Right before meals, I take him out for 10-20 minutes with a collar on and keep an eye on him so he doesn't wander. I have a bag of treats to lure him back if he gets too far away from my backyard...

    What is the eventual fate of ferals, particularly your experience?

    Sorry for a potentially grim topic, but I have to know. I found an approx. 2yr old feral about 2 years ago, so he's about 4. It took months just to be able to pet him (which he does like) but I haven't ever tried picking him up and I'm sure he won't like it. I've come to the conclusion that he...

    Cat beats up his father

He's adapted quite well and hasn't really yearned for the outdoors since. His father on the other hand, is feral. We let...

    Bored cat vs sleepy cat?

    I have a one year old cat that I adopted after living the first year outdoors (the son of feral parents). We're slowly transitioning him to indoor only, but his time outside has ranges from a few hours to 15 minutes. Currently, he's only allowed supervised visits outdoors (harness and leash) due...

    I need help to change his behavior!

    So we recently (last two months) started homing a cat after it had lived outside the first year of its life, and he was adjusting very well. He was litterbox trained (so proud of him) and we were slowly reducing his time outside, ranging from a few hours to a few minutes. On Monday, our cousin...

    Urgent help needed! Likely reasons for missing cats?

    I have been taking care of a stray kitten for almost it's whole life now, at without fail, he always shows up at least once. Without actually "owning" him, I have been as responsible as you can get, he has his own vet, his own bed and I feed him quality cat food. He's also been neutered at 6...
