Thanks, I like the word you used, atavistic. Maybe she wants to hunt and all she can find is a jingle ball!

Again, we call a neuter a neuter and not a castration. Even cat people. And it isn't really off topic, the topic is that someone wanted to know the difference that's all.

I forgot to mention, if she says really light, than she is called a lilac colorpoint. a rarer color that blue. The darker are called chocolate. My calico Tonkinese and my snowshoe boy had a lovely chocolate mitted boy with the cutest white mustache.

I had a calico cat that was pregnant by a grey boy. She had a mixed litter, some grey and white and two colorpoint blue like yours but mitted. Look for stripes in the tail and paler eyes than a Siamese, but is her fur shiny? Kitty is pretty! What are you going to name her?  I named mine...

Who gets castrated, no one. If you think neutering is bad, why? Actually, they messed up the vasectomy, no testicle removal on the persain Foxden, you are mistaken. A surgeon shaves the testicles, makes one incision, ties off and cuts the spermatic cord and blood vessels  and the surgeon...

So we call getting our male cats fixed, mine have all had vasectomies then, why do we call it neutering? Just saying, they commonly do vasectomies and don't remove the testicles as some people believe.

A neuter is simply a tie off internally, it is not complicated but it may become complicated when he pees  on things and climbing on your head, don't expect his behavior to change, it will become more evident that he is uncomfortable with raging hormones. And defending yourself is so...

Maybe he is telling you that he wants a girlfriend or that he wants you to neuter him so he can get a full nites sleep.

This is weird, my 6 year old Oriental mix who is very sensitive will walk around at around 3 am and cry as if she is ailing. I happened to wake up and can hear her, sometimes playing with a  jingle ball.So I got up to go get her and she doesn't want me to comfort her. I also noticed my...

From what vets have told me and I rescued cats and got them neutered, they make an incision, yes, in between the testicles, and tie off the part gave deliver the goods,(sperm). My guys still have their testicles, it's just that they are deflated now! They still have their penis part too...

A cat mother will only kill it's young if she has distemper and is very ill. A tomcat will kill young kittens outdoors to keep the female available for mating. I know, it is terrible but big cats do it in the wild, tigers and lions. Don't know about bears.

Set a trap and turn it in to the authorities so you can get a kitten again.

A neuter does not remove the testicles. Also, they live longer when neutered so why not? I had a tommy and by the time I neutered him, it was too late, he tried every way possible  to beat up or chase a cat onto a roof, in a tree, it was sad to see him not be able to take comfort on my bed at...

I am so sorry for your loss, I know that loss is hard and sad. Give yourself some time and maybe you can have another  kitty to love, a kitty who is in need of a love that only you can give. I lost my tiny rat terrier when she chased a truck and I found her in the street. It was sad and it was...

I just thought of something. You would probably know by now, but if he ever got fleas, even when treated, a tapeworm causes loose stools. A test doesn't show tapeworms, but they can be visible, tiny white rice dots on the outside of a poop or even an actual worm, I know it is gross. I know...

I am so sorry for both of you. I never had a kitty with these issues so I just wish the best for you both. I know that low thyroid affects the tummy. I am sure the vet checked his teeth. Does he react from vaccinations? My cat did. Maybe adding fiber, I add Metamucil to my dogs food when...

This is crazy, I forgot all about this website and I wondered what had happened. Exactly one year ago, I wrote about my dog Dixie. She is still with us, I just wonder why and started to say goodby at that time. and for some reason the nice lady with Chito replied and it showed up in my mail...

This is Dixie, as you can see she is not a cat, but she thinks she is. She is 14.5 years old, nearing her last days, she is now tired. She is not one of my 6 cats, she is my loyal friend. She has endured the hours I have spent with cats in need. The battered. the abandoned, the lost, the sick...
