So I have always had this seemingly unending battle with fleas. I have five furkids that I have constantly been treating every month with Advantage 2 yet the fleas were coming back sooner and sooner. When they started popping up only a week after I applied the drops I freaking lost it and went...

So I haven't been back for a while. So much that I went from having one furkid to now five. Not much by choice. People just left them with me. Long story for another forum I'm here to talk about Ushio my young ginger tabby and what he does that baffles me sometimes. You see, when he goes...

I got an ad watching Youtube just now about PrettyLitter. A lightweight cat litter that supposedly can monitor the health of your cat by changing different colors if there is specific imbalances in your kitty's urine. As much as I want to believe it and pay 20 dollars a month I can't help but be...

I believe our apartment may have accidentally either adopted a stray or maybe even a neighbor's cat. He's an intact young shorthair that is all black with nice yellow eyes. We've taken to calling him Midnight. I have my doubts that Midnight is a stray because he is very friendly and well behaved...

My roommate brought home his kitten Rothgar about a month ago. He's grown into a good natured, vocal and very rambunctious kitten that I have become very fond of. But! As you can see in the tag line, Rothgar has picked up a very dangerous habit. We clap and hiss and tell him no, but he seems to...

Hello everybody! We haven't been on in a long time but we would like to update that Little Rogue has now become sweet (yet timid) big Rogue. Playing peakaboo. Her hooman slave even has a sweet new setup just for her! Okay maybe the hooman sleeps up there too, but the bed still belongs to the...

I give up. I seriously do. I've been trying to find ways to play with my cat to keep her entertained. I have bought her plenty of new toys including squeaky mice, flashy balls and Da Bird. She takes an interest in them for about a day and then just goes after my feet that are under the covers...

I've decided to try transitioning my cat to raw food. She is a nibbler though and only eats little bites throughout the day. I got a small tub of the Rad Cat Raw Turkey formula and I'm currently defrosting it now. My question is, how long can I keep the turkey in the fridge before it spoils? The...

My cat is really timid, but I really need to get her her booster shots. She is long overdue for them since she spent much of her first year very sick. I was shopping for some cat food at my favorite food supply store and noticed they sold at home vaccines for dogs and cats. I figured that maybe...

I am nearly out of cat food for Rogue. I just paid my rent so I am flat broke and I have been rather sick for a while so I haven't made nearly enough money to go out and get food for her until next Thursday. I used the last of her canned food this morning and have about three days left of...

When Rogue does her business, she covers up her stuff with litter but then tries to scoop other things into the box as well! I have found toys, socks, old bills, even my underwear made it in there once. I don't know why she does it. I keep her box pretty clean. How do I discourage her from...

I have tried sharing my food with my fuzzy family member. I have offered her the most succulent parts of my chicken, steak, fish and even shrimp. She turns her nose up at all of it. One thing she practically crawls over me for though is my steamed veggies. In fact, I used broccoli to help tame...

So me and my hairy baby like to play a new game. She likes to perch above me, weather it is the window sill above my bed or on top of a california king box spring I have set up as a poor man's cat tree. With her just out of reach, we like to bat at each other but she gets a little too eager and...

"My heart has joined the thousand, for my friend stopped running today" - Richard Adams Even though this applies more to rabbits more than cats, I feel this prayer fits my furry feline friend, Tarzan. Tarzan was never my cat. He belonged to no one and he made sure to keep it that way. My...

I had been feeding this guy for a while and then he just disappeared one day. I found him a few minutes ago. He is really sick! His eyes and nose were covered in mucus and he is really thin. Furthermore, he has allowed me to approach, touch him and even pick him up. He's never let me do that...

So I am pretty sure some of you guys know this already, but I have found a toy that cats seem to love pushing around and it's absolutely free! Ice cubes! If you have clean floors and don't mind toweling up a puddle afterward, I have found my cat loves chasing one around and my mother's cat has...

So I rescued a feral kitten a few months ago and nursed her back to health. Now that she is healthy, she is starting to play and I happily oblige her. She loves to get pets from me and play with me, but I live with three roomates that would also love to pet and play with her. She runs and hides...

So I found out my kitten loves broccoli. I was eating a steak with steamed broccoli two weeks ago and tried to share a bit of steak with her. She turned her nose up at the steak, but I couldn't keep her away from my broccoli. After checking to see if cats could have it, I found it was at least...

So I have a kitten with Trichiasis or misdirected eyelashes. So far, it hasn't affected her too much. It's just made her eyes weepy. But I know eventually her eyelashes will become a big problem when she gets older. It appears the only way to fix this problem is laser surgery. I seriously can't...

I've been trying to find ways of getting rid of the fleas on my new feral kitten. She's too young for the usual methods and bathing her in Dawn stresses her out terribly so I try not to do it too often. I have found some natural methods and wanted to run it by this forum on safety and...
