Hey All, My kitty has a sore on one of his paws. It's a dry spot that's like a little crater that goes into the pad. Almost reminds me of a human plantar wart. See in the pic below how it has raised edges around? I gently scraped at it, thinking that he might have picked up a sliver or thorn...

Every time I have company, he runs under the bed and hides. It's very frustrating. Many of these people are cat owners, and would like to say hello. Any way that I can encourage him to be a better host? tyvm

Ok... I think I figured it out! At night I play with my kitty using his favorite toy:  a squirrel's tail on a string. I drag it along side the bed, and he pounces on it from under the bed. He loves Loves LOVES this game! So, after about a year, he finally got his paws on this toy. He dragged...

@MoochNNoodles  thanks for your comments. You may be right; I picked him up and gave him some special attention, and he settled right down. At my old place he had a cat door, and could go outside during the day. Now he's locked in all day. I'll have to figure something out. @AyeshaJae  My kitty...

So I come home from work today, and Mr. Fluffytail is waiting for me on the steps outside, as usual. I sat down for a moment to scratch his head and say hello, and along comes my neighbor, walking her two dogs. The first dog was not really much of a concern; a little Yorkie or something...

I'm not sure if it's what I'm feeding him, but his mane is really thick and furry. He looks like a little lion! Maybe it's because it's November and his winter coat is fully in.

tyvm... maybe some of both.

Since the day he met her, my cat HATES my friend. I don't know why, and it's driving me crazy. Every time he hears her, he runs for cover!  I am a younger man with just one cat; she an older woman with a half-dozen cats. Does he smell her cats? Is she encroaching on his territory? wth? He...
