    How to minimise destructiveness

    Last year, we fostered (with intent to adopt) a stray teenager kitty. It did not go well. Among a bunch of other behavioural issues, he hated being indoors and would become very destructive, especially when he was home alone. We live in a city apartment so it wasn't possible to let him go...

    I want a lazy house cat!

    A few months ago, we adopted a teenage domestic short hair that we named Odin. He was a big, athletic moggie and we lived in a small city apartment, so it quickly became apparent that his activity level surpassed our ability to tire him out. He was messing up furniture at night, but red flags...

    Does wet food make cat eliminations stinkier?

    My boyfriend is aggravated  that I bought Odin heaps of canned food but no dry bikkies. He says cats should eat dry food because it makes their poo and pee smell better.

    New cat behavior questions

    Odin is my 6 month old neutered rescue cat, and as he is my first cat ever I have a couple of questions on his behaviors that seem odd to me... 1. He likes to bite me gently. I read that this was petting-induced aggression, but he does this even when I'm not petting him. He'll come up to me...

    Anyone tried Feline Natural by K9?

    I just got a rescue cat, 6 months old, who eats kibble and some cheap grocery store wet food, both of which the shelter gave me as changeover feed. This is my first cat, so forgive my inexperience! I've been doing research on cat diets and I'm thinking of transitioning him to raw. A commercial...
