I've got a bit of a dilemma about a new job I've been offered and I could really do with hearing some opinions from folk. We're getting a tiny new kitten as a companion (hopefully!) to my older cat, and that means someone needs to be at home for the next few months to supervise the settling in...

Hah, I love how all our cats seem to have very similar habits! When I was studying with my books and papers spread out over my desk, my cat used to jump up and lie sprawled over the whole lot - it was impossible to carry on working and impossible to move him off :p

This is exactly the same as my cat, who we got when he was about 8 weeks old. He was a rescue kitten and when we got him he didn't really seem to understand why we were stroking him - he'd obviously been separated from his mom very early, so didn't connect our strokes with his mom's licking or...

My sister's always been allergic to cats but when she moved out a couple of years ago she got one. She's generally fine so long as the cat's kept downstairs, is brushed regularly and the house (esp carpets and upholstery) is kept in pristine condition with a minimum of hair intwined in the...

I've never used one as I have a friend who always comes to stay when we go away, our cat is a bit timid and that's what works for us. But our neighbour used a boarding facility for her cat last year and she'd been really worried about him but he was fine, she said he got spoiled more than when...

My cat tries to eat croissants and if we ever have Indian food she loves popodums. I say she loves them but we are aware that they're very salty so don't let her eat a lot. She'll basically try anything on someone's plate if we let her but I save a bit of unsweetened yoghurt for her to lick out...

I need to make a website for a small business I'm starting from home. Does anyone have any advice? I've looked around online and there's this kind of thing http://website.1and1.com/how-to-build-a-website which is kind of the whole package but if anyone has any other suggestions that would be...

We have a friend come and stay with our cat when we go away. It's someone she's seen around the house before and who we know loves cats. We're also comfortable with her being in our house. I wouldn' worry about her running out though if you do get a pet sitter, as long as they understand that...

I would agree with Quiet here. Spray with water if it gets out of hand but let them figure things out. I watched a documentary a while ago which suggested that even hostile cats can live in close proximity once they've sorted their daily routines out. That means being awake at different times...

Actually my cat has done the opposite! He's a rescue cat and when we got him at 2 months old he didn't seem to understand what petting was. It took a very long time for him to get used to us stroking and cuddling him and to understand that it was an affectionate gesture, but now he couldn't be...
