    *rubs face* Okay, so Artemis and her brother, Traveler, are just over 1 years old, I've had them since they were three months. They've rarely had food issues outside of slowly deciding they aren't fans of wet food and I better not change their dry food either. So in the past month, I TNRed a...

    Wet Food Woes

    I'm writing this as I listen to one of my cats insistently scratch around both the her dry food bowl and the dish of new wet food I left out. So as kittens, I started Artemis and Traveler on the Blue Buffalo Carnivora Prairie brand (I gave them some coastal blend today and both are displeased...

So far they've been confined to the back bedroom, as we're finishing painting around the house and there's some dangerous things for the tiny ones to get into. I originally had a 48" tall black dog...

    The Mad Pee’er And Guilt

    things have changed since I last posted. I borrowed a large dog crate from a coworker but Poe seemed to be “cleaning up his act” so I decided not to crate him. Then I signed a lease on my apartment. It’s no pets allowed so my boys will be staying here. With all the chaos I suggested that they...

    Litter Box [re]training

    TL;DR at the bottom of the post: I posted about my boy Poe a few weeks ago. He was going outside the box and we found out he had a bladder blood clot and tapeworm. Well, both seem to have passed but he is still going outside the box. In the middle of our ripping up of all the carpet, we're...

    Hi! After putting my 18-year old female down in 2015, our 4 year old neutered male, Sammy dealt with depression afterwards.

    He is no longer happy with me after the two times I trimmed his nails

    Hairball Prevention/New feeding plans

    So with Sammy in recovery from the (actually really small???) hairball that was lodged in his intestines, I'm going to make the long overdue switched from free-feed to meal times that I had planned to do two years ago but couldn't get anyone in the house to help me. If life was perfect and I...

    Am I doing the right things?
