Got a 24 by 16 inch carrier today with a top door.
We have 2.5 weeks to get Cal comfortable in it and hopefully get him INTO it before the vet. We've been taking him with a harness and leash but the vet is on a busy road and I worry.
Calcifer is strong as heck and I was used to Nobel's 17...
Ita a good idea to check in with a vet if this is new. Some medical issues cause constipation and poop stuck to the bum is frequently a sign of unheslthy poops!
Yes my wife and I are studio Ghibli fans! We had the name in consideration for Magnus but ultimately decided against it after a couple days. Cal isnt grumpy like Calcifer but he does like food!
Its okay re:Rc and the toy. Its a great start so dont be discouraged. :) even if just a few minutes...
No offense at all! We're all on the dame team here: Team Keep Our Cats Healthy and Happy!
Since research on cat food is so behind, of course the area is rampant with opinions and we can each only do our best by our cats.
That must have been so hard and scary 💕 Of course you are worried about...
Heat kills cynaide compounds. That's why things like nut shells can be used as litter too.
There's dangers with any litter. Clay is also toxic to lick off their feet...some cats are just able to tolerate it better. 🙃
I agree its always important to look up legitimate studies on all ingredients in your cats food and care products.
However, I don't take stock in social media propaganda campaigns or manipulation of data. Both man made and naturally found ingredients can be dangerous at times and in certain...
Yes so definitely causing upset! Sorry to ask but there are many posters who conflate play with aggression (and easily so since they can be similar!).
It's hard, but its likely that they arent ready for that step yet.
How do their gated interactions go? What activities do you have them "do"...
Yes, I'm aware of the claims of that group. One of the main "cases" they were quoting was a dog, whose vet thought the dog had a tumor and the owner was unable to pay for a scan.
Here's our discussion on it here: Problems with Purina Pro Plan??
Obviously, you should do what you feel is best...
Yes, especially as you don't have a gate yet, it's very important to keep mixing their smells and getting the mixed smell (not the two separate smells) around the house.
Even now, I do this by brushing all my cats with the same brush daily.
Even if he's laying down and batting at the toy...
It can really take a long time. But both of my former outdoor cats are also chatty. Meow about this and meow about that. Sometimes meow for me to come look outside with them.
The button training for them helped lower the meowing. They can ask for food, pets, play...but it does take up some...
Attack? Or play? Was she puffed up and/or growling? Because a butt wiggle is play, even if the cat on the receiving end is nervous. Be cautious and mindful about the words you begin to use to speak about NC, as they will change your perception of her.
If she's starting to bite a few times and...
Sorry I misunderstood that part. :)
So, not together and the point remains...he doesn't make rules for your house. He makes rules for his apartment.
Your cats live there. Their home should be their safe place :)
