Oh, now I feel just great....I had no idea that mothballs could be dangerous for kitties. I would never, never have put them out if I had known. Can't even remember where I first heard to do that. Thanks so much for the info...won't be putting any out there this year, thats for sure!! Lynda

Cynthia, I have used moth balls to kept stray cats from peeing in my flower beds (cat pee kills the flowers!!) and it worked for me...might be worth a try combined with the chicken wire to keep them from coming back and remarking what they consider "their house" until you get the area covered...

Okay, I have a question here...without getting too graphic, I thought when they neutered a cat, they removed the testicles, actually castrating him, not just making him infertile, like a vasectomy does for a guy. So...if they removed the testicles, then shouldn't the hormone that allows him to...

Hi K&J, I'm just taking a wild guess here...many, many moons ago, when I was a kid living at home, my mom had a cat who liked to "do his business" outside. He didn't seem to like kitty litter. After being involved in a few cat fights, my mom decided to keep him inside all the time, which then...

Penney, I'm having sort of the same situation here with my three. Initially, the two older cats, Petunia and Mr. Whiskers, didn't seem bothered by the new one,Pumpkin, and Pumpkin was the only one showing any aggression. It's been a little over a week now and we have been separating and slowly...

One more thing on Softpaws...and I can't believe I forgot to mention this in my first post... They CANNOT be used on cats taht go outside. The reason being, they are pretty defenseless without their claws so they are for full-time indoor cats only. Okay, now I'm done, I think!!...lol! Lynda

One more thing on the Softpaws...they can't be used on kitens under the age of six months. I don't know the reason for this, but that's what the manufacturer says. Lynda

Hi Everybody! Sorry about the delay in responding to the questions about Softpaws...between the new kitty, work, and my kids being on the computer, I haven't had a chance to check back till this morning!! Softpaws are wonderful!! I've been using them for about a year on my two older cats. They...

Hi Everyone! This is my first visit to your site which I've been reading and finding very helpful. Although I've found a lot of posts on introducting a new cat to the household, I still have some questions about out situation. I apologize in advance for the long, long post!! Last night my...
