This all sounds very familiar. My Winter did that kind of thing as a kitten. Aside from lots of licking, she would always fetch the little furry mouse or the little fuzzy ball I'd throw for her. It was very entertaining when she'd fetch her mouse. She'd always carry it on the same side of...
My Winter does something very similar to me. She does it after a shower or after I've washed my hands. She licks and licks and licks...I think she likes the taste of soap.
It's ok, though, because she's such a sweetie!
Sorry to bump up my own thread, but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to help me help my kitty? I wouldn't be posting about it if I weren't concerned.
Thanks
Hello,
I have posted a few times here, asking for help in getting my two kitties, Winter(8) and Avalanche(2) acclimated to one another. The good news is that they are fine together. Winter is never going to want to cuddle with Avvie all the time,but I have caught them snuggled together, and...
I taught my kitty I had when I was a kid to sit. I just kept repeating "Scooter, sit!" and then I'd give him a treat each time he sat after I told him to sit. Pretty soon, he connected the yummy treat with his posterior on the floor! LOL! It was pretty funny. I also trained him to climb on...
My two year old boy, Avvie, is quite the character. He's not a small cat, almost 14 pounds. He has always had problems with agression to some degree, although I do think he is quite loving by nature.(and yes, he is fixed and I have had him since he was a kitten) But, we've been working hard...
Hi everyone! It's been a while since I've been here. I have 2 cats, Winter(who is 6) and Avalanche(18months). It's been a rough road, adding another cat to the household. Funny thing is...if there is more than one person or if they are alone, they're quite happy to share the same room or...
Thanks all for your advice(Sorry to post this here! I apparantly got confused and thought I posted this in the health forum! )
I'll keep you all updated on what happens. The way that I applied the vanilla was on a q-tip, because I didn't want either of them to have too much of it. And...
Hello! In case some of you don't know me, I have two kitties. Winter, who is a 6 year old female, and Avalanche(Avvie) who is a ten-month-old male. Winter has had trouble adjusting to Avvie, so I did some research and found this wonderful site. I started using the Feliway plug-in, and...
Thanks everyone for your helpful suggestions! I definitely think that Winter finds Avvie to be annoying at times. hehe! But I wanted to give you all yet another update. Today I got home from the mall and found them both curled together on the couch in my den! I mean curled into one big ball...
Just thought I'd update, since it has been about a week since I bought the feliway plug-in. I think BOTH cats seem calmer. In fact, this afternoon, I woke up from a nap on the couch with Winter snoozing on my feet and Avalanche snoozing right abover her on the back of the couch. Winter even...
Hi everyone,
I posted a question in the behavior section and I realized I didn't introduce myself here first!! I hope I didn't offend...I was just worried about my older cat. Anyway, I have two furry babies; Winter, who is 6 and female, and Avalanche(Avvie) who is ten months old. Just...
Thanks so much for taking the time to give me such a long, thoughtful answer! I will definitely give your suggestions a try. I always give each cat lots of attention, but I don't think I actively made sure to give each one his/her own special time. I will see how that goes.
And, yes, both...
Hi all,
I'm new here, and I'm growing increasingly concerned about my 6 year old female cat named Winter, whom I've had since she was six weeks old. She has been an "only child" for most of her life(started out with two older cats(my roommate's at the time) in the house, had no problems, and...
