    Bully Cat

    Make sure you have a path up high for Princess to get away from Jaspurr.  She must have an escape route if they are let near one another.  You can also try using distractions like cat wands to get his eyes off her when they are together.  I would feed them on opposite sides of the door so they...

    *Help! Needing experienced advice introducing new 10 month old Male cat to 3 year old Female!

    Get lots of cat toys and buy what is referred to as a cat wand or feather dangler.  Try to play with them both a few feet apart with the wand so they can see and sort of interact with one another.  Hopefully if you do this long enough with the boy you will wear him out so he's quiet.  Make him...

    Friend of Ferals Award Badge - Apply Here

    Hi, I would like to have a friends of ferals badge please.  I've helped over 100 cats over the past 20 years.  I work with a rescue called friends of ferals so this badge seems fitting.  I live in the country and people dump their unwanted cats in my yard and drive away.  Most of these cats are...

    Constant meowing - new and annoying!

    What I'd do with Jasper is take away his food several hours before bed.  An hour before you go to bed your job starts with him.  Play with him with an interactive toy like GoCat Da Bird Pull Apart Rod and Bird Cat Feather Toy.  Some of these wand toys have replaceable toy ends where you can...

    Constant meowing - new and annoying!

    I am having connection problems  :o( or I would show you my cat.  He's black and white but his sister looks like a blue point Siamese.  Sometimes looks are deceiving.

    Constant meowing - new and annoying!

    Do you know anything about his parents or anything ?  I have a black and white cat that some of his siblings look like pure bred Siamese cats.  Siamese are the most vocal cats there are.  They have to tell you about everything and complain about nothing.  In my opinion I'm thinking your cat may...

    I no longer have the monster

    To get him to use the litter box I would keep taking him to the litter box every 30 minutes (if you have the time) and dig his paws in the litter to dig a hole.  Then let go of him and see what he does.  If he goes give him tons of loving when he's done.  It can't hurt to keep putting his poo in...

    Caring for a Feral Colony

    It is a bad idea to throw raw food on someone else's property when you've been told not to.  If he wanted to give them cat food that would have been another story.  I knew someone who used to let their dogs eat dead animals that died on their farm.  Not knowing it was illegal, I mentioned it to...

    HELP! My cat is peeing outside the litter box.. literally just next to it!?

    Like the others have said crystals cause lots of pain.  I assume it feels like peeing needles and your cat is associating the pain with the litter box.  Did the vet say what kind of crystals they are and give you can cat food ?  Since I was a child I've had 4 male cats get Struvite crystals. ...

    At My Wits End With Kaylee

    It takes about 30 days for a cat to lose hormones after surgery so don't expect much improvement until then.  That being said if there are any spots where Kaylee peed she will be drawn back to it if she can smell it.  First I suggest getting a UV flash light and looking for pee spots.  Then you...

    Worried about multiple changes in environment

    I have moved a few times with pets and here is my input.  I haven't had to rehome during the move but what I would be doing is sleeping on some blankets and towels right now so my scent was on those items.  When you leave the cats at your friend's home leave those items where you think the cats...

    Caring for a Feral Colony

    Bless you for helping these cats.  Like you said about that man who is leaving raw meat out, yes watch for him.  Find out who he is (take a picture from your cell phone if you can) and if he doesn't own a business there try to get a business owner to confront him saying he is trespassing and he...

    Brand-new cat owner looking for advice!!

    Hi, Great suggestions from everyone.  I don't know if your cat is declawed but you might want to look into a cat tree (at least 3' high, taller if you can afford it) that's wrapped in thick twine.  It gives your cat something to get off the ground and gives him a place to scratch other than...

    Hello, I'm new here

    Since I was a child we always had cats and I was the caregiver so I've learned a lot about them.  Over the years I've rescued at least 100 cats, no I don't have that many.  I've even worked a bit with a rescue in my state.  I'm hoping to somehow start a business going to people's homes in...
