    Avocado for cats - ok or toxic?

    a lot of things are said to not be good for cats, some say tomatoes are not good for cats but some cats just love tomatoes.  i would say don't give avocados too often, give her some once a week or once every now and then.  anything in excess is harmful.

    I dont kno when my cat will have her babies

    she might be going under your bed to search for a good place to give birth, they like to give birth in warm protected places.  you need to get a box or a basket and put towels and old clothes and make it warm for her and place it in a corner or in a protected place, and introduce her to it. ...

    My cat doesn't want to play anymore after I brought a new cat home

    some stuff that might help:  First, feed them in opposite parts of the house. Slowly bring their food closer together, until they get used to eating side by side.Maintain separate litter boxes for the cats. Make sure each cat has his own litter box at first. As they spend more time together, you...

    My cat doesn't want to play anymore after I brought a new cat home

    your resident cat seems to be definitely jealous of the new kitty.  i think he is feeling betrayed, since the new cat has taken over his sleeping spot which is close to you, so maybe if you can give the resident cat his place back, things would get better.  i read it may take 6 to 8 weeks or...

    Baby Green eyed Kittys

    i really don't know about whether the mange will come back if she has more immunity but i think probably not.  for her immunity, give her raw boneless chicken, this gives an immunity boost.  there is also coconut oil with really good benefits for cats and pets and humans even, you can mix a...

    finally home cooking again

    home cooked food/ raw food is the best for cats, i know cat food is good and easy, but sometimes it just has too many ingredients, and you nede to watch out for certain brands etc etc..  cats are mini lions, so they definitly like raw.

    Kitten diet - how much to reduce his food by?

    i would say do as your vet told you to do, but i read it says make sure your cat doesn't lose more than 1/2 pound per month because that will cause other issues.  i also read that if you must cut down, cut down on the dry food more than the wet food, like 1 pouch of wet food, and lesser grams...

    Am I being selfish?

    just had a kitten pass away today morning but we couldn't take her and bury her because what she had is contagious which somehow makes losing her worse, and about a year ago, another kitten passed away too, we buried him but his body somehow disappeared and it only made the fact that he was gone...

    Kitten Needs to Gain Weight

    My Cat is Pregnant, what should i do?

    you need to provide her with a place to give birth, a warm safe protected place.  you can place a box that is easy to climb in and out of with some towels or old clothes in it in a corner or a shielded place and introduce her to it, she will probably give birth in that box.  there is really...

    Cat likes to play with poisonous snakes

    i'm unsure that this issue can be solved because cats are natural hunters, they have that instinct and it can't be stopped.  maybe you can give them toys that they can follow, like snake movements, but safer.

    Hairball Coughing and Congestion

    A full-blown asthma attack may at first resemble a cat trying to cough up a hairball, or possibly choking on food. However, the body posture is somewhat different. With asthma, the cat's body will be hunched lower to the ground and his neck and head will be extended out and down in an effort to...

    Kitten Needs to Gain Weight

    he is adorable.... perhaps it is the fact that he is the most active of them all that is causing him to not gain weight.  he might also have been the runt or the smallest of the litter, and these remain smaller than their brothers and sisters.  he will eventually grow but it might take a bit...

    Cat urinates on me when I sleep.

    don't take her back to the shelter please, keep her with you and try different methods and have patience.  you can try ways like using a firm voice when she does it and saying no, and i have seen on this site on some thread, someone said you can try hissing at her (just like she would if a cat...

    Pregnant Cat

    i think it is normal, it's just early signs, i've seen it on my cat and i think she gave birth about 1 -2 weeks after, she didn't show signs of labor either, it just happened suddenly if she is acting normal and nothing seems wrong, i think you shouldn't be worried, though you can call your vet...
