My poor cat had an intense dental surgery on Wed. He is a very difficult cat to adminster meds to (will barely even let us hold him, is very strong and in the past it's been very traumatic for all of us despite trying all the methods the vet has shown us). Therefore, we decided on a pain patch...

I have 2 cats and 2 litter boxes throughout the house. I've been noticing 1 poop outside of both boxes -- it happens probably every couple of days. I'm not sure which cat is doing it, but I'm concerned. I know it could be that it's painful for them and thus, are associating pain with the litter...

I'm back with an update... hoping to give some hope to those who are struggling w/ their cats. Things are not perfect.. and we still have a way to go but BOY have we made massive progress! It has been exactly 4 months -- and now Luna can roam the entire house without being terrified. Salem...

Anyone with some advice? Desperate!

I am having a horrible time trying to figure out what to feed my cats! My vet pushes Hills Science diet so clearly she is not that much help... Right now my 1 year old cat Luna is eating Nature's recipe grain-free wet food which she loves. I have never heard much about this brand though but...

Hi guys, I need your help... now that I have about 10 diff types of wet cat food in my fridge opened but not used... My cat Luna, who is 1 year old (we got her 3 months ago), has been eating Science diet wet cat food (the chunky kind for kittens) and a small portion of dry food as well. Not...

No - neither cat was hurt, thankfully. I have found some very minor cuts on Salem's belly, but he seems fine. He is always chasing her.. and being really mean but at this point, I'm starting to think its more of a scare tactic than anything else. Hoping it stops at some point :(

Thank you for the positive vibes! I was really hopeful that we were finally over the hump... but this morning they had a full out brawl. Took us 5 min to break it up -- they were rolling around, screaming and would not stop no matter how hard we tried. It was awful :(

I've tried lots of Feliway -- don't even want to admit how much I bought in hopes of it working :P. Didn't seem to do anything for either cats. I will try to play with the both of them more. The problem is that our resident cat is a grump when she is around and refuses to play in her presence. I...

Just an update... I wish I could say things are magically different by now (3 months later), but they aren't :(  We have seen some real progress, I think, but it's been very slow and this is where I need advice! We moved our new cat, Luna, up to the 3rd floor (its a redone attic) so she has a...

Sorry -- to clarify, I'm using the 5.5 oz cans. She's also a 9-10 pound cat, if that helps.

Hi guys, I need your advice -- my cat Luna just turned 1 year old (or so we think) and she's getting a little pudgy. When we rescued her at 8 months, she was extremely skinny. You could see her bones sticking out so we fed her as much as she wanted (typically 1/2 of a large can of science diet...

Things are progressing sooo slowly, but it's happening, I think. This past weekend Salem slept under her cat bed (she was already laying on it) -- he made sure to put his butt right in her face! Was hilarious, but they stayed there for a good hour. Poor Luna was afraid to move. I think Salem...

I just recently moved Luna back to her original safe room --- the sunroom (it has a lot of windows both to the outside and inside the house) hoping that would change it up for her and allow our resident cat to see her all the time around the clock. It's not working. How come he goes nuts and...

Thank you for the encouragement. I appreciate it! Salem, our resident cat, is not interested in playing at all when he's near her. We've played with Luna, while she's on her bed (literally 2 inches from Salem) and for the most part, he just stares and watches her. He doesn't try to participate...

Thought I'd check back in... since it's been awhile. Sorry to say we're not out of the woods yet. We've made some progress... but apparently have a long way to go... We went back to square one, doing a lot of the scent swapping/playing under the door/eating on opposite sites, etc until we let...

Hi, Thanks everyone for your advice - much appreciated! I think we made some progress last night. Luna (the new cat) has been in her safe room since Sunday, and we have been repeating the process. The Feliway has been plugged in for a few days and Salem (resident cat) has seemed relatively more...

Hi everyone, I just recently adopted a second cat and it has been pure misery. I am desperate for advice and would be so grateful if you could give me some guidance. My husband and I adopted our first cat, Salem, 9 months ago. He was a stray (2-3 years old) and declawed. A timid but very sweet...

I'm willing to move her to another room in our house -- with a door that has enough space underneath for them to smell/touch eachother.. but honestly, my cat Salem is so clueless that I don't know if he would even know she's in there. Thoughts?

My husband and I brought home a sweet new kitty, Luna, who is 10 months old on Sunday. We have another cat, Salem, a 3 year old male who has been our #1 since last November. While he's very loving to us, we knew he was very territorial, but wanted to take a chance and adopt a friend for him.  I...
