    Baking on the cable box???

    My cat Goofy has found that the cable box gets quite warm, and has taken to sleeping on top of it. (She loves the warm sun, warm blankets, warm people etc) My father noticed one day that when he flips the box over and shakes it little pieces of what look like skin fall out. Is this safe for...

    Missing fur on back leg...

    I couldn't really tell on that webpage if Goofy's patch looked like that, but im curious, how would an indoor cat contract it? I am going to call the vet monday morning because she seems to be paying attention to that area, cleaning it and such. I may consider taking her sooner should it get worse.

It didn't bother her when my boyfriend and I touched it, and my mother who had been taking care of her said...

    My cat Mr. Chips is 6 years old. I have noticed that he is getting clumped together tufts of fur on his back and side.

    My Goof doesn't (I don't think anyway) recognize her name. She does come when my boyfriend or I blow "kissy" noises or say "Here Goof" in a sing song high voice. Why is it that cats like high pitched noises?

    Whats wrong with Goof?

    Goof has been tested and vaccinated for feline lukemia, so I know its not that. She has been gradually getting more playful, and last night she was as playful as ever, but she is still skirmish when you go near her to pick her up. Could she be afraid that we are going to punish her?

    Are my cats bored?

    What seems to entertain my cats while I am gone are little mice toys and little fuzzy balls. They are small so they can bat them around and carry them in their mouths. Also, at the store they have clawing posts that have hanging balls with bells from one end. Try finding one and have your dad...

    I know scratching and clawing at things is normal feline behavior, but as I discovered when I was making my bed this morning, my kitten likes to rip apart my bed skirt. Is there anything I should do to get her to stop doing this? When my boyfriend catches her, he claps his hands and yells and...

    Pussy Willow had kittens, and they all died. She sat and meowed at our front door until someone went out, and then she kept walking from the dog house where she had the kittens to us, and when we followed her, they were all dead. My mom thinks its because she didn't know what to do with the dead...

    My old cat doesn't like my kitten!

    Sure enough, his attention to the door had something to do with her being in silent heat. I took her to the vet on Wednesday to get her spayed and some of her double claws removed (she is double pawed and there are two claws that won't retract.. my poor baby )When we got there, the vet looked...

    Plastic Snatcher

    Feral, If your cat likes those milk rings, try looking in the pet store for little toys that look almost exactly like the milk rings, but are kitty safe. I know the pet store here has them, and my Chips likes them, and I know they won't hurt him.

My mom used to feed her all the time, and we started by feeding her on the porch, and slowly moved her feeding spot into the garage. One day, when we were getting ready to move (we wanted to take her with us)...
