OK, this is possibly a crazy question, because obviously it would be gross for us to share our toothbrushes with someone or have our human children share a toothbrush.... but I mean, these are cats. They share food & water and I've even seen them eat each other's barf (while I'm running crazily...

According to the vets in China, a/c is REALLY bad for cats and dogs. They used to really sternly warn me to not use the a/c, especially after anything like a spay or neuter. Obviously, I think they're all idiots - a/c is not bad for animals, otherwise all the cats and dogs in the American south...

Look up Cerebellar Hypoplasia Cats and Kittens on Facebook. It's a closed group, so you have to request to join, but there's no reason why they wouldn't admit you, since you've got two CH kitties. They've been a wealth of information to me. I'm not sure how old your kittens are, but he will...

Does anyone know of an affordable mousse textured wet cat food? That is, one that is very very smooth? Or do you know what I could add to pate cat food to make it more smooth? I experimented with some and found that whipping egg whites and then mixing with pate worked to give us the texture we...

The eggs can pass in the feces. If they never left a host's body then I don't think they'd be one of the most prevalent intestinal parasites, because the only way to transmit them would be to eat a dead animal while the eggs were still viable. From the research I've done tonight, roundworm eggs...

Thanks. That seems like it kills adult worms then.

Some worm medication only kills adult worms. If she just ingested eggs within the last 12 hours, she wouldn't have adult worms. If it doesn't keep killing them continuously, then it wouldn't do any good. I looked on Revolution's website but I can't find any info on what life stage it kills or...

I just brought home a foster puppy who had some very serious injuries and can't walk much. She's also terrified of humans. I was assured she didn't have worms, but I'm paranoid, so gave her deworming medication anyway. Apparently I'm not paranoid enough, because, just going on the claim from the...

Sorry if this isn't the right place for this... but does anyone know of a forum, website, facebook group, etc. where I can try to find a forever family for a dog? I've always been a cat owner, not a dog owner, so I don't have any experience with dog related groups. But I'm a member of an animal...

He may have been fixed when he was older. I've heard that if they're fixed after they've already started spraying, they're much more likely to continue the behavior even after they're fixed. That could even be why he was put out from his original home. Or, he could have been spraying just...

Ten days isn't that long - cats can remember for years. I had a genius cat that I taught to use a bell on my bedroom door when I was a teenager - ring it to go out. I only showed it to her once and she used it for about a year till I took it down. Years later (seriously,like 10 years later), I...

I feel like you should have put "agitation" or at least "anger" on the list. I don't consider frustration OR aggression to be the same as agitation, but those are the closest things on the list.

I wonder though, are the current Dyson's as good as the one you bought 15 years ago? I'm finding nothing is made to last like it used to be - and it's not just me, I've read lots of articles and seen lots of news stories about it. I mean, my first cell phone that I got in 2002 lasted me until...

Oh, P.S. I just put the litter in a large ziploc style bag. I didn't actually carry as much as I usually put in a litter box, but there's only so much I can fit in my carry-on. I tossed it after the last use as it wasn't needed anymore.

You can buy a portable litterbox on Amazon, and probably Chewy, Walmart and others as well. It folds up so you can put it in your carry-on. I'm not crazy about it - when unfolded mine is still crimped in at the places where it folded. I even used mine to store books and papers and other random...
