How is it possible that my cat has no fleas on him, and he is not scratching, and what do I need to do in order to get rid of the fleas from my apartment?

Hi all, I have recently started finding small white sesame things on the bed, where my kitty sleeps during the day. I have made a few internet searches and it appears that he could have tapeworms??? I did not see any signs of fleas on him, and I did put a strong anti parasite medication on him...

I am shortly going to be flying from NYC to Italy, where I'll visit my family for about three weeks. I have in the past left my baby with trusted people he loves, but for a series of circumstances none of them will be in town/available when I am gone, and I don't feel like leaving him with a...

Not really a suggestion, but: my old cat used to go crazy over yogurt starter, and he would steal the little packets to lick off its contents when they were half empty. Does anyone know if those are safe for cats? He never seemed to have any issues with them, except that he was annoyed when he...

Hi all, I'm trying to leash-train my 14 months cat. The reason behind my decision is not so much that I want to walk my cat, but that I live in an apartment that doesn't get much sunlight, and I am worried that my cat's health would suffer from lack of exposure to natural light (if my fear is...

Thanks! Is the distribution of white still called a tuxedo? Or what's the name for it if it applies to colours other than black? Why Find us, Stefanz? I looked it up, but I'm not familiar enough with it to understand what features in the cat you might be referring to...

My cat has a strange love for Japanese cuisine - and I don't just mean sashimi. He steals shiitake and kombu when I make dashi, he is crazy about any type of seaweed, he unsurprisingly loves onigiri, and loves pretty much any sweet - dorayaki, mochi, pocky and green tea wafers, you name it -...

Hi all, I'm the delighted human of a 14-month old domestic shorthair that I got from a cat shelter. When asked in conversation "what breed is he?" I usually say that he's an adorable little ******* that fell from space, but people seem to find my answer somewhat unsatisfying and I find having...
