    Possibly Part Maine Coon?

    Jasper is an orange tabby, and short haired, but he does have an M on his forehead.  At least, my husband says he does.  I kind of see it.  Is it possible he's part Maine Coon?  I never saw his mother, and who knows about the father...

    Good Food for Kittens?

    What kind of food is best to feed my 10 week old kitten? Right now I'm giving him Purina kitten kibble. The vet told me not to give him canned because he has diarrhea and canned can make it worse. I don't have a lot of money to get expensive food.

    I just adopted a 9 week old kitten. Right now he pounces on stuff and bites, and climbs up my leg and chews on me. I've read that this is all normal behavior, and he'll grow out of it. I'm sure hoping so! What I want out of Jasper is a loving, cuddly cat, like my 7 year old, Rista. Is there...

    litter box issue

    I have a 7 year old cat, Rista, and a brand new 9 week old kitten, Jasper. Well, Rista is not happy about Jasper. She hisses and swats at him. She wouldn't use her litter box when it was too near to the door of the room Jasper was in. I had to move it. We let Jasper out of the room so he...

    corona virus

    I have a 7 year old cat, Rista, who through a blood panel has tested positive for corona virus. She hasn't had any health problems from it, and the vet said a cat that's positive is pretty common. However, I just brought a 9 week old kitten, Jasper, home. From what I've read, kittens that...
