I posted a question about purring regarding my Duke, who was a kitten only a few months old. He also would not purr whatsoever. I was told to listen closely to his neck, etc., and could never hear him. However, he is now five months old and has been purring very loudly for a while now.
It took...
I think that bluekat had a good point:"I'm sure some homes would not have pet cats, if they were not allowed to declaw them."
I would personally rather have a shredded couch than to let someone yank out my cat's claws, but I also understand that some would not be cat owners if declawing were...
Duke is so big now!He looks like a real cat. He has a toy kitty that looks just like him, and he loves it- he attacks it and sleeps with it. He is sooo precious. He makes his mama happy!
It has been a little crazy around my house lately with two 6-mo. old kittens, and four 9 week old kitties. This is not to mention the dog, turtle, and three fish, as well as the stray black kitten that wandered up a few days ago. Feeding these animals are expensive!
As I am currently living at...
My four kittens fought over food quite frequently just weeks ago. They were born to a very sick stray who was not feeding them well, and they were all very underweight. When we found them, they were old enough for solid food....but they appearantly didn't think they were going to get enough...
Duke has definitely not been purring. I always felt his neck, head, etc. to see if he was, and listened to him, put my ear to him, petted him as I held him up to my ear. His ears went back. He did not like his Mama bugging him.
Appearantly he heard about me posting about him, and decided to...
Good points. I have put Dukie up to my ear and listened, but he could be stopping when he gets there! And my four kittens all had distemper when I got them, so I gave them medicine three times a day then. Duke had the worst personality to begin with, but he is so much more docile now.
Anything...
Hello again.
I have four new baby kitties, all litter mates and each about 6 or 7 weeks old now. They all think I'm their mother and hop in my lap and purr a lot- all except for one, my runt Duke. He doesn't like to be "petted" but plays a lot. Is this just a personality thing or does he hate...
Thank you for the advice about leaving them together until twelve weeks- but why? We will most likely get rid of Lucie and Major, although they are gorgeous, and keep Max and Duke, so that no new offspring will result!
I wish that there were a humane society in my area. The closest is a few...
Hi Anna! My fiancee and sister are both terribly allergic to cats, and we have two in the house now, and four outside.
Both can cope easily, however, because both take shots for their allergies. They began taking them at once a week, and now take them only about once a month. They are pretty...
We can't find the remaining two kitties that stayed with their mommy anywhere. The mommy cat is still around and seems very sad. I feel terrible that we couldn't catch the other two, but they were always the most wild ones and the most sick; they weren't healing like the others. Most likely they...
Alright, I SOMEWHAT agree with the Tommy Lee thing. The whole "I beat my wife" stuff is pretty much a turnoff, though. I bet he wouldn't like cats! (Also a turnoff). The wholesome guys must love cats, although sometimes, they are dog people.
I still cannot believe that you have failed to notice the most attractive twenty-something year old on the planet: Josh Hartnett!
Go watch "Pearl Harbor" people! Wow! He beats that ugly old Ben Affleck any day.
Hartnett is second only to my fiancee, whose picture I am most likely not going to...
