    My cat turned 1 year old in September. Every morning around 4am she wakes me up and usually doesn't stop until I feed her. She digs into my hair, lightly bites me, and jumps on top of me. I tried feeding her later at night, but she bugged me about that too. I am so tired and just want some...

    Kitten biting

    I have read a thread about a kitten biting in the morning and now I am having the same problem. My 8 month old kitten continues to wake me up at 4am by biting me and continues until I've woken up. I've tried a few methods but I'd love some feedback. At first I would just get up right away and...

    Missing my baby girl.

    Sadly had to put my 14 yr old cat down today. Saddest goodbye. I am lucky the vet gave me one last night with her yesterday. I gave her so much love. She will always be my baby girl. This is my first loss and I'm sure not my last. Hardest part of being a pet owner. I know that she is at peace now.

    Help with making the decision to let go (oral mass)

    We recently discovered that my 14 year old cat has an oral mass in her mouth. It appears to be painful and due to this, my cat has stopped eating and has lost weight. I try to force feed her every day with little result. We can either go the invasive route and do a biopsy & surgery which...
