    What is causing Nikita's fur issue?

    I did find some music on YouTube Claimed to be cat calming, it seemed to help when I left it playing when I went to work

    What is causing Nikita's fur issue?

    My vet and I have been trying to figure out what is going on with Nikita's fur. She's been losing during only on her legs and it's concerning. Strictly indoors, no fleas or ticks, not sure about allergies since things are pretty much the same as always. He gave her a steroid shot for itching to...

    New cat scratch tree....hard to part with...

    I found some sisal rope on Amazon that can be out to me by Monday, 10 bucks. I'm going to try that first, I assume I will have to take the tree apart, unwind the old rope and put the new rope on. I'm a little anxious about it staying in place though but it doesn't appear these are glued or...

    New cat scratch tree....hard to part with...

    I'm thankful for everyone's response, I didn't know you could just buy a new post though rope alone. Still, ice put together all my cat furniture except the tree in question, and inspecting it I'm not seeing where it connects top wise. On the bottom, yes, also there's an artisan signature but...

    New cat scratch tree....hard to part with...

    It's hard to tell with the shredded and frayed ends. Though, are you suggesting taking the old rope off entirely and wrapping new sisal rope around the post itself?

    New cat scratch tree....hard to part with...

    So I have this cat scratch tree that I don't remember or know the manufacturer of. When I brought Prince home nearly 6 years ago, I brought the cat tree too along with another scratching post I call the tower. Both, I would say is incredible in quality because they've lasted 6 years with Prince...

    Is Nikita becoming a clingy eater?

    So when she got hungry again, she did go to the food bowl on her own. Still, I'm wondering if I should bring out that automated feeder and schedule it for a feeding when I'm still at work. This vomiting is a rare occurance for Nikita but if she isn't eating in the morning before I go to...

    Is Nikita becoming a clingy eater?

    This is a curious question and I'm not sure whether they're put it under health or behavior. Nikita has always been a little bit clingy and I think anxious because while she and Prince are always the best friends she always seems to be nervous when she hears him move, I think because of the Bell...

    Need some urgent advice for catching and caring for a stray kitten...

    AHH I wanted to give an update, but I hadn't gotten around to it. My coworker had his heart set on the little kitten and shortly after posting this thread, he was able to convince his parents to let him at least bring the kitten in. He managed to be able to pick the kitten up and take it...

    Need some urgent advice for catching and caring for a stray kitten...

    Haha, thanks. Yeah I'm really wanting to save this kitten. There is a rescue group in the area called HART, that maybe I can get them to help somehow or get advice from, but certainly, just gotta get this kitten in a better environment first

    Need some urgent advice for catching and caring for a stray kitten...

    Yeah I was having that same thought with whether or not the kitten might have illnesses or problems. With the Vets closing on the weekend, I'd have to wait until Monday-which I already have Nikita scheduled for a new appointment with a new veterinarian....

    Need some urgent advice for catching and caring for a stray kitten...

    I am a little nervous about how Prince and Nikita will react at first. I know that since I got her, Nikita has literally NEVER hissed, not even at Prince. She came from a foster home where there were other animals and people around. Prince, if you remember, was young when I got him-5...

    Need some urgent advice for catching and caring for a stray kitten...

    For sure, especially if he's able to convince his parents to take the cat in. They may be more accepting of it if someone else has done the "hard work". I know he really wants to take the kitten in, even has given it a name. I'm actually thinking the closet might be better than the...

    Need some urgent advice for catching and caring for a stray kitten...

    Yeah I'm thinking the net would be easiest. I can put some catnip spray in there and the can of food, and maybe a couple cat toys. I think we're a bit concerned he might rush out the minute we try to close the zipper. I know my coworker might not like it, but I'm thinking we may end up having...

    Need some urgent advice for catching and caring for a stray kitten...

    So I work at a place that is predominantly outside and we had a mother cat with kittens on the property at one point. Animal control came and took the cats, but missed one small little kitten. My coworker has been trying to socialize it and care for it, hoping to be able to get it comfortable...
