Maddie and Alli are growing like crazy. Holly is definitely feeling left out. She seems to be eating a lot less. I hope the poor thing adjusts pretty soon. The kitties both let her go right up to them and they even let her lick them. We try to make her feel loved and we give her extra...
Last week we went to adopt a new kitty and wound up adopting two! They are sisters and both are all black.

Unfortunately Jack doesn't take too well to being sequestered. He'll chew on the door frame, as we found out right after we moved into our brand new house. He's lucky he's still alive! As for Holly, she has a tower feeder to make things easier on us. That's why I was hoping there was a...
Jack the cat can't seem to keep out of our dog's food. I keep a small bowl on top of the food, but that's a lousy solution. Does anyone make a covered bowl that only opens when Fido is in close proximity? Something that can be activated by a small transmitter on the dog's collar. Jack is on...
Every so often my cat swells up in different areas of his body. Every vet I've taken him to is at a loss. He's been on the venison and green pea allergy diet for a year now, but the problem still persists. Areas of swelling include the head, chest and all four feet, though only one at a time...
Hair, hair, hair!!! Everywhere, cat hair! How do I get it out of my polar fleece vests? Surely there must be some products out there designed to deal specifically with this issue. Lint rollers and brushes don't do the job. Cat owners must know what really works. I'd appreciate any ideas...
We haven't used any carpet freshener yet. This is a brand new apartment we moved into seven months ago since we've sold one house and are getting ready to sell another house. Once we do that we'll be building a new house. Kitty should have been over any trauma from the move by now. He did...
Now the right side of poor kitty's face is all swollen, just like his feet were. He doesn't seem to be in any pain though. Like his feet, I expect the swelling to only last a day or so. He's still active and interacts with us, so that's a good sign. As for allergies, the vet put him on a...
Thanks to all who answered. We're in the process of finding a dermatologist but the one who was recommended is out until June. Kitty is getting better, but we still have to keep the doughnut on him. Kitty is an indoor cat who has no contact with other animals. Ringworms were also discounted...
Our cat has had some health problems recently and the vet is at a loss. The first symptom was excessive scratching that caused open wounds. Additionally, several times a paw was swollen to two/three times its normal size. Kitty is on a new diet for allergies. Mold was considered, but scab...
