    Kitten only wants to eat adult cat's food.

    I've sent an email but so far no reply. Getting a dedicated kitten food just to be safe.

    Kitten only wants to eat adult cat's food.

    I have my cat (7 years) on wysong epigen 90. My kitten (4 months) gets the wysong kitten food but she refuses to eat more than a few bites. They both also get a wet meal each day but financially we can't do all wet. Is epigen 90 okay to feed a kitten or should I keep insisting the kitten eat...

    Fished a kitten out of our pool last Monday. Need some advice.

    Question time! Jiji, or as we lovingly call her "the certifiable issue" is now able to vertically jump over 45" to clear the new baby gate. (I spent 45$ and it kept her contained less than 2 weeks) :gaah: Thankfully at the moment she kind of 'forgets' she can do that and will just jump at the...

    Harness training continues but I had to post this picture. First time falling asleep in my arms 💜💜💜 She has her second round of kitten shots today and will be doing some socializing before and after. I had several appointments today that all got cancelled so hers is my only one left.

    Fished a kitten out of our pool last Monday. Need some advice.

    Just another quick update. Installed a new MUCH taller baby gate today. Jiji hasn't got a chance to clear it for a good bit. Still waiting to see if Luna will jump in and out okay. In other news harness training is well underway. She didn't love it at first but after a few hours she settled in...

    Jiji is making it very hard to keep her contained these days. She's been breaking over the top of the baby gate with increasing frequency in spite of attempts to fortify against escape. At 10 weeks and only 2lbs I really don't want her around the whole house. Plus my pit/husky mix seems to get...

    Jiji continues to make it very hard to keep her contained. The baby gate continues to get more plexiglass and duct tape and cardboard but she continues to find ways out. Still I really want her to grow before she's able to come and go as she pleases. She's 10 weeks old today and just made it...

    Tomorrow she will be 10 weeks old and she JUST broke 2lbs today so she's definitely on the smaller end of the spectrum but full of crazy energy!

    Jiji broke containment today. Found her in the living room with Odin standing over her licking her and giving the other two dogs some side looks. Seemed more protective than anything. We made the decision last weekend to give Jiji till she is closer to 12 weeks before continuing introductions...

    Fished a kitten out of our pool last Monday. Need some advice.

    Fun update! Jiji came out with me today and helped with errands. We went to PetSmart, Petco, Hobby Lobby, and Lowe's. Anyone who wanted to, got to pet her and she did great. Hopefully soon she will be big enough to start harness training. (I live in Oklahoma and all cats are harnessed trained in...

    I had Jiji out with Odin again last night. My husband wasn't around to help wrangle the tiny terror so it wasn't quite as smooth. Odin did okay but Jiji kept jumping up on the edge of the couch to swat at Odin's paws which was not ideal. Odin took it well enough but jumped every time she did it...

    Help with kitten/dog interaction!

    We had a nice session tonight with Odin and Jiji. I sat with Odin on the couch while my husband monitored the kitten. I pet Odin and scrolled on my phone. If he tried to get up to go towards Jiji I pulled his collar and said no. He only tried that about 3 times. Then if he started staring I'd...

    Luna was roughly the same age as Jiji so he's been around tiny kittens but it's been a very long time. Jiji thankfully has no fear. Now we just need to get Odin more relaxed! Here's a picture of Odin and Luna from 7 years ago.

    Not really. He's never been a chaser so much as a bounce around and play kinda guy. And when he's following Jiji I think he's PROBABLY just trying to catch up and play cause he kinda does slappy feet like he would with a puppy but even playing with such a size difference is scary. I don't like...
