    Started leash training cat... now we have a problem

    My husband and I are moving across the country next month (20 hour drive) and are taking our cat. We're worried about him on the drive, so we've been starting to leash train him so we can take him out at rest stops and give him some fresh air.  We got a harness, and he hated it for about 12...

    Apartment inspection with a cat

    I live in a one bedroom, one bathroom apartment and received word that the complex is inspecting units tomorrow. According to the notice, I am supposed to secure my cat, but I'm not really sure how to do that without torturing him all day.  My kitten is about ten months old and usually has the...

    Cat sitter - help!

    I am the proud co-owner of a 8-9 month old shelter rescue named Albus who, over the last five months, has become the absolute light of my life. I have crazy cat lady written all over me. My boyfriend and I are both leaving for the holiday and I'm really panicking about the cat. We called...

    Healthy kitten weights

    I have four and a half month old kitten that my boyfriend and I rescued from a shelter when he was (apparently) three months old. When we brought him home on August 10th, he was about 2.8 pounds and more underweight than we knew at the time. After some bouts of sickness and ringworm, he has...

    Kitten eats literally everything edible

    For those of you who have seen my other posts (ringworm, URI, insanity, fleas...), you probably all think I'm crazy cat mommy but really, my adorable and lovable baby cat is a huge handful (but we couldn't possibly love him more than we do).  I have a four month old shelter rescue who was a...

    My cat is nuts

    I have a four-month old shelter rescue I got about a month ago. When we first got him, he was very sweet and affectionate (although we now attribute that to his URI) and even as his health returned, he was still relaxed and charming when he wasn't being a typical kitten.  However, over the last...

    Ringworm?

    I have a three and a half month old rescue kitten who has already had a bad URI, fleas, took ages to box train... we love this little guy, but he's put us through the ringer.  In any case, we're fairly sure he has ringworm, since my boyfriend and I both have circular rashes that look a lot like...

    Help! Accidentally used Hartz!

    Help! My kitten is about three and a half months old and has been really itchy, and my boyfriend and I have what look like flea bites. We grabbed an OTC medication from Target, not knowing any better, and I plopped it on him.  I didn't do a great job, as it got on more fur than cat skin, but...

    New kitten with URI

    Hi, all! I'm the first time cat mommy to a three month old shelter rescue that my boyfriend and I lovingly named Albus. We've had him for about a week now and he's already the center of our world.  He came to us with a bad URI and didn't seem to be eliminating at all at first so he's already...
