Has anyone tried Okocat wood litter? Reminds me of oatmeal. The clumps are a little harder to scoop but it's worth it. For the first time the box in my master bath doesn't have an odor. It's hard to find in stores but available on Amazon and Chewy.
The long hair variety is terrible because it...
Oops. I didn't realize my post posted. I wasn't quite done :-)
Thanks for the responses. It all makes sense I suppose if you're a cat. I haven't tried feeding or treats upstairs mainly because of my dog but I can experiment a bit whenever he is outside. I also try to only go near them when they...
I adopted 3 one year old semi-feral cats about 2 months ago. I dedicated a finished basement to them. Several weeks ago I introduced my dog and since it went so well I now leave the door open so they can roam the house freely. They come up frequently and enjoy the additional windows and...
I pick up several at a time at a dollar store. They are located at the check out lanes. I have 3 cats that are a little over a year old. They all go wild for them. I tried another brand from Walmart in the pet aisle. Other then costing $4.00 more per laser I don't see a noticeable difference.
Thank you. I tried a human bath brush because it has a long wood handle on it but she ran from that too. I will back off for a bit and just continue playing.
I forgot to mention she follows me from room to room. It's funny. I just go about what I am doing. If I walk by her she scats to another...
I have adopted 3 semi feral cats about 5 weeks ago and have made huge progress from where I started. My first post here was about one that I couldn't get to come out of a drop ceiling for two days and now I am able to pet her.
The cats are from the same litter and were never socialized. They...
Wow! If I were in your position I would also email a link to this full thread to Howard Stern's wife. She is definitely insinuating that she will tell Howard Stern to shut you down with the closing of her email Bababooey and Hey Now line.
Also, I recently had my soon to be ex husband's sister...
I had been scouring Craigslist for months looking for 2 kittens. We had lost our 2 cats within a month of each other to coyotes and our family was really missing them. We decided that our new kittens were never going to be let outside when we adopted again.
I kept watching Craigslist and the...
I modified my Breeze pellet litter box because the pads were messy if they get too soaked. The pellets aren't always easy to find either. I stuck a piece of window screen wedged between the border that snaps on and the main tray. I use the silica crystals and have the box sitting on top of a...
Glad to hear you are able to stay. Hardly seems fair that you're paying his mortgage. Hopefully it isn't much more then you'd pay for rent and you can save up some for a new place. Sounds like you're hanging in there. Good luck to you!
Maybe try a harness instead of a collar with a long leash. It's less likely that she could wiggle her way out of one. I had a dog once that always got his snug (2 fingers under) collar right off.
He did find her and lured her home with treats.
Since she was difficult to get back home and didn't come home for several days I would just be careful of taking her out. Once she knows what's out there she might try to slip out the door when you are carrying groceries or something.
Since...
I have grown up with indoor outdoor cats and decided the cats were happy, healthy and always came in for the night. My attitude has completely changed because I have lost 3 cats to coyotes now after a move to a different countryish area in the USA. Now I have 3 semi-ferals that are 1 year old...
My elderly cat did the same thing a year ago when she was 18 1/2. Second floor window, but over grass, not concrete. The hole was already in the screen but I never imagined it was a cat danger. She is afraid to go outdoors and never tried to get out. She was gone for 2 full days and completely fine.
My 19 1/2 year old will only eat Fancy Feast classic (pate style - will only lick gravy off the shredded or chunked kinds). She will always vomit if given the flavor Cod, Sole and Shrimp. Must be something in that flavor that doesn't agree with her.
My 19 1/2 year old didn't meow for at least the first 10 years. She did chirp when looking out the yard through a glass door. She just started meowing one day and I was so surprised. It definitely seems like an attempt at communication because before she decided to meow she used to touch my face...
Can catnip be bad for cats at all? I was under the impression it is completely fine and enjoyable to the cats. The woman from a rescue organization that I adopted 3 semi-ferals from is very opposed. She acted like I made a newbie mistake when I told her I misted the cat tree and scratching posts...
What is the reasoning for watering down wet food? I'm just an average cat owner (my oldest is 19 and doing well) and never thought to read up on cats since they seemed just fine until I adopted 3 semi-ferals last week.
Yes, she has several spots open to come out easily. The lady from the organization I got them from is more worried then I am. The ceiling doesn't extend beyond the room and there are no exits to the outside. The cat has just been chilling all day. At one point she was near enough to watch her...
