Those posts look wonderful. Thor doesn’t seem to care about the furniture so much anymore, it’s just the doors. I don’t think it’s the actual scratching, either. He just wants to be with us. If we’re around, he leaves the furniture alone. Mind you, if he’s hungry he tells us by jumping into...

Thank you. We have decided not to shut Thor in another part of the house, for now. He basically had two issues. One, he was reacting to the time change. Our response was to get up and feed him but that was wrong. He really wasn’t hungry. The other issue was that he just wanted to be with...

We feed the moist at set times. I understand why he is off food but the others are just being contrary. He does not care for dry so we are fine cutting it out but getting them all to eat is the issue. The recommended websites have been really helpful. I have info to take to the store with...

Thank you. That was very interesting reading, lots of good ideas. Thor is only 18 months so we are in for the long haul, so to speak. He’s an incredible personality so we are doing all we can.

Me too. All the cats are on a hunger strike. At this point, I’m only concerned about the sick one. He’s using the litter box again, thank goodness. Nibbling and drinking which is a relief. The info in those websites was fascinating and, I think, usable.

The vet put him on Royal Canin’s SO, both dry and wet. We put out portions that have either just the SO, just their old fave Wellness brand, and a mix. Same with the dry. The sick cat has tentatively nibbled but eaten not more than a tablespoon. The girls won’t touch any of the moist food...

Our 18 month old Thor started peeing outside the box (waaay outside, as in my living room) last week. We got him to the vet of course, rule out the physical before we tackle the behaviour, and sure enough he has cystitis. Poor guy has been in real pain and discomfort. Not eating or drinking...

Thank you. This looks right up Thor’s alley.

Great suggestions and I thank you. This cat! We’ve tried to figure it out and I think it’s four things. 1. He has been like this since the time change. Hopefully his internal clock will adjust. 2. He’s hungry. We’ve been feeding him extra at bedtime. 3. He wants to play and his kitty...

I wonder what the tape would do to my doors. We tried it on the counters. Until recently he would jump up and then lift the door to the appliance garage and hide inside. He likes the cupboards too, if he can get there. And the fridge! . We’ve done all of these suggestions. He doesn’t...

We are recently retired seniors, with three cats and two dogs. The cats are 15, 2 and 18 months. The older girls are settled and seem content. The youngest is the issue. He was a feral kitten, born at our vet’s. Lovely boy and he has grown into a solid (22 pounds!) healthy handsome critter...
