My six month old kitten has developed a new behavior in the past week or two that is making it impossible for us to sleep. We close the door to our bedroom at night (my partner has allergies, also when we have let Casper in at night he just pounces and plays), the door itself has a rather large...

Yeah when I measure it against the wall 42 inches does seem pretty dinky. They also have this one which is 50 inches and doesn't take up a lot of floor space, but the cylinder level seems like it'd be too small for an adult cat. I just found another brand that's only sold in the UK but after...

I love that cabinet, the fretwork is amazing and looks like it must have taken a while to make! What I am planning to do is make 4-panel room divider, paint it and then stencil a pattern onto it. I am going to attach a plastic "floor" to each one the interior sides using Velcro so that it will...

I am going to be purchasing a cat tree in the next few months for my 5 month old kitten and I wanted to get some opinions on the subject. I have found a brand that I really like (most aesthetically pleasing designs I've seen in my price range) but I have been debating between a few different...

This sounds like normal playful kitten behavior. How old is she? The sudden change you observed is probably a mixture of her feeling healthier and more confident in her new home. Kittens have a lot of energy to burn, so play with her as much as possible and introduce a toy when she begins doing...

Any new food (brand or type) should be introduced slowly and possibly mixed in with her existing food. Make sure that, at the very least, the food is grain-free. I've been hearing a lot of great things about raw diets for cats but haven't tried it yet (it may be out of my budget right now). I...

Do you still have the pest deterrent on/running? I am assuming it is one of the ones that emits a sound inaudible to humans? If yes to both, then you should disable it, as it's probably stressing her out.  Also, I wonder how you approach her. I find it best to let a skittish kitty approach me...

How bad, and how often are the fights? I might have misread, but I gathered from your post that they were currently coexisting but not acting like buddies. Is this correct? My oldest cat, Pooh (who's 18 and lives with my parents) has gone through several introductions to new cats, and while we...

Thanks I will!

Woah, 8 rooms per floor?! Either that's a typo or your house is huge! Anyways, it sounds like you're expecting her to act like a dog would. Cats and dogs are very different! I've never heard of anyone crating a cat before, and if you are only taking her out 3 times a day in 30 minute sessions...

Thanks Ritz and ShadowsRescue! Great idea about this clothes! And yes, our friends are big cat lovers! Actually they were in on the surprise and so they were there on Casper's first day home, and have been over several times since then. Haha talking to him doesn't sound weird at all, I do it...

Even though you've tried different litters, you may not have tried one that is soft enough on his paws. Declawed cats often experience paw pain and he might have stopped using the litter boxes because the feel of litter hurts him. Also make sure that the boxes are very easy to get into (one that...

*I'm not sure if this is the correct section for this question* Months ago, before we knew we'd be getting a kitten, we arranged a 3.5 day Fourth of July beach trip with a few other family members. Last month my partner surprised me with a wonderful kitten (we named Casper). We've arranged for...
