Thanks! I checked for all the things mentioned and it all looks all right. No more throwing up. Maybe she licked the plates I left in the sink last night. (Yes, I put them in the dishwasher like a good girl) She ate my only plant a few months ago (non-poisonous of course) and never goes...

Parker, my 2 year old, just vomitted. I read the posts in this section that seemed to be on a similar topic but nothing seemed similar to how she is. She's never had a problem eating fast and I don't think it's a food allergy. I rotate foods so they'll (I have 11 month old as well)not get...

Parker has trouble winning the dominance game because her former owner declawed her. The only reason she half way wins now is because Fred is still small and Parker has 10 or so pounds on him. I think most of this is Fred going through puberty. He talks all the time to himself (sometimes I...

I know the ear drops helped Parker. She's eating again and doesn't hiss a Fred quite so much, but it still is not the sibling type play as before. I really think it is Fred getting all "manly" that is the cause of the current problem. He's not exactly doing the mating move, but I guess it's...

I haven't posted in a while because everything has been going great. About two weeks ago, I went on vacation for 4 days leaving my "kids" behind. A neighbor looked in on them every day. When I came home, they seemed to be fine (no apparent resentment of me). However, I've been noticing that...

You can read my posts about Fred. I was feeding Fred the same thing as my 1 1/2 year old cat Parker. I don't know if it was this or something else that caused him to have some bathroom problems (he would meow while using the litter box as well). Is the kitten showing any other signs of...

I let Fred out of isolation after 2 days of no accidents in the bathroom and seemingly normally bowel movements. I have both Fred and Parker on dry kitten food and I have put a litter box in the upstairs bathroom. Everything has been fine since I put the litterbox upstairs. Fred can find it...

O.K. New issues with my 10 week old kitten Fred that I would love some of your input on... On Friday, I notice Fred was going to the litter box a lot more and sometimes meowing. This continued through the weekend and I noticed that when he went to the litter box, he was producing very little...

Maybe he's just settling in now after 2 or 3 weeks. He is now due for his second worming treatment. I'll take him this week. I'm thinking now it might be an early sign of territory marking too. He seems to want to go in his box often when I'm in the same room or nearby and especially after I...

I've had Fred for about 3 weeks now and he's about 10 or 11 weeks old. In the past two days, his behavior has changed a bit. He seems to be in the litter box an awful lot and he talks when he is in there. He hasn't been doing this all along. It's time for his second worm treatment -- could...

It took my two about a week to start playing together (and that seemed short to other cat owners). Parker, the older first cat, ran away from Fred but watched him constantly. She would hiss at him when he tried to play. Now they play a lot and she even grooms him (he's just a kitten). She...

OK, Fred has been doing pretty well for the most part. He's about 10 or so weeks old and he's adjusting well. He's only had 2 accidents peeing on my bedspread. I've washed it, but maybe it now has his smell. I've noticed that he doesn't always cover up his stuff after he's through using the...

I'm an attorney that specializes in employment law and I don't think you could win the ADA case unless you could show a true disability -- but who knows, you're in California.

You have a cat named Fred as well? My staff thinks that is the funniest name for a cat.

Thank you guys for all your ideas. I turned the heat up a bit when I left given the current cold snap we're having (after it was 90 just last week). Maybe the change in tempature caused the cold (or whatever) to begin with. Kris
