    My kitten sucks his tail

    One of my two new kittens sucks his tail a lot. I tried offering him a bottle but he doesn't want it. Should I just not worry about it, or will he hurt his tail? Sophie

    I'm Back!

    Hello Everyone, I haven't been here in a couple of months, as losing my cats in September was so painful. A couple of weeks ago I adopted two kittens. Today they had their first vet visit. They are 11 weeks old. My vet is a holistic vet, and wants them on a raw diet. They've just gotten dry...

    R.I.P. Georgie

    It's kind of funny with how hard I tried to get rid of giardia in my cats, and I ended up losing Georgie to something totally different - Feline Infectious Peritonitis. He was only a year and a half old and I am devastated. The vet made a clay imprint of his paw for me. His sister Susan is still...

    Immune Booster for Cats

If I feed them George's food (high calorie), Susan gets diarrhea. I tried...

    Shave and a Haircut...

    It's really not where I live, and my cats are acting uncomfortable. Also there has been a lot of barfing up hairballs lately. So I have decided to get George and Susan lion cuts for the summer. We go in Friday morning. Susan gets very anxious and sometimes poops in her carrier which makes me...

    Brush/Comb

    Does anyone have any suggestions for a brand of brush/comb to use with long haired cats who tend to fuss about being brushed? So far I have the most success with a glove that has kind of bristles so I can brush the cats while patting them. But that doesn't work on more stubborn tangles and...

    Advice on Feeding Practice

    My two cats need to have two different kinds of food. They will eat out of each other's bowls if I'm not watching. They don't like to be separated. I'd just like to hear from anyone who has found a way to get cats who live together to eat separate foods. It might be that I just have to guard...

    Torbie?

    Susan is a pure bred Maine Coon, but I'm wondering if her coloring could be called torbie? Sophie

    Greetings from a newbie!

    Hello everyone! I'm new here. I look forward to making friends with other cat enthusiasts. I have two Maine Coons, George and Susan, who are 13 months old. They are the loves of my life. They have had a lot of health problems since I rescued them at 4 weeks from a breeder who was shut down due...
