I think people hate cats for a number of reasons, some stated above like you cannot control a cat, or because some cats cans eem cold and uncaring. Also, I´m sure a bit has to do with how your parents were ie did they raise you to like animals or did they hate cats, maybe they were scratched as...
If I was you, I would not do it. More cats = a higher risk of problems. What if the new cat does scratch furniture, or decides once in awhile to not use the litter box, or if its personality clashes again with yours. It´s not always easy as you know to find new homes for animals..... It sounds...
no mice or rats here. My cat just goes outside and brings the freshly caught mice back into the living room to play with. I open the door, get the broom and just swish the mice back outside.
One of my cats is extremely afraid of the fly swatter. As soon as she sees me get it and hold it in my hand, she runs out of the room and into the bedroom and hides under the bed. I know the reason for this as well, as when it happened I saw.
When she was about 4 years old, I got the swatter...
She is going to understand when you say just the F iin her name perfectly fine. In fact, when my cats were kittens and when I was feeding them i´d take out the food and would always say Food while stressin the Foo like foooooooooood. After a very short time i noticed even when i just saod food...
I think most pet owners do not like favoritism but most pet owners with more than one pet do fall into that trap haha A human cannot help feel more attached to their dog or cat or bird etc....it´s going to happen if one of their pets touches them a certain way, which almost always happens...
Actually I just wanted to leave an update here; it´s pretty amazing but after 3 days she kept the cats together the whole day, and after 7 days the three cats just were back to the way they behaved towards each other 2.5 years ago when they last saw each other. During the week the bedroom cat...
wooden floors, add dust that collects with the hair and it becomes twice as bad haha I don´t really get wired up about the cats shedding, I´m used to it and it´s going to happen whether I like it or not. When I sweep, it seems like 2 hours later i never swept and I need to sweep again, so...
One obvious solution would be to keep your door closed. Another solution would be stop playing with him or petting him when you are outside, just ignore him, and he´ll stop wanting to be with you. My guess is you are maybe giving it treats (or gave it some food once - or more) and now it knows...
Thanks. She let them be together fpr 7 hours today, the older one just stayed in the bedroom like yesterday but laid on the bed. One of the younger ones was in the bedroom the whole day also and just doesn´r seem to care, or is oblivious, of the older cat hissing. She stays away and also laid on...
Thanks. She introduced them last night for 2 hours. The older one hit under the bed and just watched. One of the younger ones did not enter the bedroom, but sat in the kitchen the whole time. The other young one walked around the bedroom and eventually feel asleep there. After 2 hours she put...
I received great advice the last time I asked, so I am asking again for a friend of a friend what is the best way to handle the situation.
She has 3 cats (agea 12,10,11) and lives in a smaller apartment (bedroom, living room, kitchen, entry room). The 3 cats lived together in peace for 9.5...
I have 4 cats, all indoors, and to me there is no favorite number of cats to have. To me, there is no difference between 1 cat or 4 cats, because I am used to it. I also grew up with 3 cats and a dog. The only thing to consider is the more cats you get, the higher chance for bad things to...
I´m on the bottom floor of an apartment building and obviously many birds come around my yard. Usually one bird arrives and attracts everyone else minutes later, and maybe being higher up and not a lot of space (just a ledge and not a yard) it´s obviously not going to atrract many birds at the...
