    Two Pet Water Fountains Compared

    i've had the fresh flow since january and love it...more importantly, my two little friends love it! it's simple to assemble, easy to refill (i just pour water into the bowl section - don't bother with the reseviour unless i'm gone for days), and clean up only takes 10 minutes. just make sure...

    Petcetera Store Brand Food

    it doesn't say that actually. the info i posted is the extent of whats on the can pretty much. i'll continue using it and mix in some other wet food brands (SD, Nutro, Solid Gold, Merricks) as i have been. these two seem to like a wide selection...

    Petcetera Store Brand Food

    so, is there anything i should be concerned about with these foods? i mean, it seems like really good quality stuff for fairly cheap...i'm wondering if i'm missing something here or if it is indeed a quality cat food for a value price?

    Extra Jumbo Litter Box

    Rubbermaid makes a big container with a hinged lid that would work well for the cat and you to clean it.

    Petcetera Store Brand Food

    does anyone here have any experience with this food? i think Petcetera is only in Canada. they have many varieties of canned food containing a high % of actual fish. i've been feeding my two cats this and they seem to prefer it over other brands (merrick, science diet, nutro) that i feed...

    Ziv's car problem

    i was experiencing the same issue with ChumChum. on our last car ride both cats were out of the carrier. while ChumChum still complained a little, it was definitely improved over the frenzy she would get in while caged up. once they got used to it they both basically found a seat and stayed...

    What is a good Cat Food?

    not sure where in ontario you are but right now at SuperPet stores there's a sale on Merrick canned food. buy 4 cans get 2 free. it's $1.69 per can so that works out to $1.13/can. not bad considering it is quality food. i stocked up big time cause my two buddies love this stuff!

    Shaving Long Hair for the Summer?

    i'll talk to the groomer and see if they can do a shortening rather than a shaving. based on Luciano's reaction i might take it a step further and just get him shaved in a few months when it's really hot. it's only april and he's already obviously bothered!

    Shaving Long Hair for the Summer?

    My long haired black cat, Luciano, has been spending more time resting fully extended on the (cooler) tiled floors in my house rather than on the carpeted areas or his cat tree. Also spends more time in the basement and first floor rather than the second floor where the rest of us spend the...

    Wants me every second

    i went through the same thing with ChumChum...and that's how i ended up with Luciano! she's still affectionate with us, but also keeps busy playing games with her brother.

    Feeding the Munchkins!

    since you're in ontario i'll guess the food you're vet suggested is either Medi-Cal or Science Diet. Medi-cal is good stuff but i can't for the life of me figure out why they recommend Science Diet. it has ingredients comparable to grocery stroe grade cat food. [i must admit to blindly...

    Cracking the door a bit

    i kept mine seperate for a week but after the first day i would let them see each other every day. at first there was a lot of hissing on the original cats part. after about the fourth day that tailed off and i let them be together in the new cats room. once the open hostility started i...
