Bird netting tore quickly once the big cat started sitting on it like a hammock. My husband switched to chicken wire. He stapled it on. Be sure to cover the railing part, too.

I know every cat is different, but I need to know if there's a light at the end of the tunnel. My husband and I are a little stressed. Please share your experiences with integrating a new kitten into a household that already has cats, how long it took for the resident cat to accept the kitten...

Long story short, I missed my cat's passing by an hour and half at the most. Because of work. I could have called out sick the night before, I would not have suffered repercussions, but it would have been last minute and I had assumed she'd last till 2 pm the next day at least. I was prepared to...

Haha, what a sweet kitty. Ragdolls are known for not being very active, are they? My snowshoe is kind of lazy. He was a little tubby when we lived in a condo. We moved to a bigger house, and he spends most of his time sleeping above the closet. He uses the 6 foot cat tree to climb up. He's...

I'd try FreshPet. Cheaper than raw. We figured out that our tabby probably got his loose stool from eating his brother's prescription dry food. Go figure

Thank you. I asked the vet about treatment options. She said the cancer was so advanced that all her organs were abnormal, and chemo would probably just shock her system. It's everywhere. The vet advised that I could bring her back for a humane passing, and sent her home with anti nausea...

It sounds like your cat and your roommate's cat are already bonded. Your roommate's insistence is very frustrating. Also kind of selfish. Some cats need cat companions. Are you able to get a second cat once you move out? Cats can rebond with new cats. If you're going to rehome the cat, do it...

When we first got our tabby, he had the most obnoxious, LOUD, loooooong meow/yowl. I wanted to give him back, haha. He would have been great at cat opera. He really held that grating note. Our snowshoe has a sweet, chirrupy meow/trill and he's fairly bossy and chatty. I also happen to be a...

My 9 year old cat was diagnosed with lymphoma 2 weeks ago. If the vet's estimate is correct, she has maybe 2 weeks left. If need be, we will help her along, and my question will be moot. But we're not at that point yet, so I want to know for the sake of my own being prepared. I want to know...

Is there a high animal protein, low carb, reasonably low fat dry food you'd recommend? Is freeze dried raw food decent?

If she has fleas, she almost certainly has worms. Worms can cause loose stool. We fixed our fleas by using a Seresto collar for the cat who wears collars and Revolution for our nudist kitty. The blood/discharge is very concerning, however. Maybe it came from having too much loose stool? I hope...

We last had them on Blue Wilderness (for dry). We got them Blue Carnivora today, I think it's new? Haven't seen it before. For wet they get Whole Hearted. I got them a couple cases of the gravy based morsels that was lower protein and lower calorie, it just didn't seem to fill them up. Any...

We were looking at cat foods today and noticed that the grain free Whole Hearted brand had fewer calories and less protein than the Blue Wilderness brand, which had more protein and more calories. Which would be better for overall cat health and weight control? I know that high protein is...

What a CUTIE! When my oldest was a kitten, she used to run around in her litter box, chasing shadows. Maybe she's playing, maybe your litter works so well she can't even smell her own stuff unless she sticks her nose right in! If you're worried about her inhaling clay, paper litter works very...
