Such strange timing! After I posted this thread yesterday, we noticed a major breakthrough: Poppy was hovering by a closed door, so when I opened it, she side-stepped out of it's way and bumped right into Nikki. She looked around, saw Nikki, and merely wandered off. It was like she said "oops...

We have 2 cats. Both female, both spayed. Our older girl, Nikki (short for Nikita) is about 6 years old, and was our first cat. Our youngster, Poppy, is about 5 years old, and came along about a year after Nikki joined us. They got along from day 8 (Poppy was 9 weeks old, and isolated for a week...

My longhaired girl is 4 years old, and I just noticed tonight that she's got a balding spot above her right eye, basically where her "eyebrows" are. It doesn't seem to bother her, but it bothers *me*. It looks a bit inflamed too. Is this something that's pretty normal for cats (I know the fur is...

We have 2 cats and a dog. All of them have exhibited a change in behaviour. It's like I've been basted in chicken juice or something, they all want to be near me/ on me/ petted by me. Especially the cats, who have up until now been affectionate, but not anywhere near this loving. Our older...

Our female cat LOOOVES Lysol! For some reason that makes no lick of sense to anyone but her, she loves to roll around in the spot where we've sprayed Lysol (mostly after cleaning up dog up-chuck). We've tried to stop her on many occasions, but she'll just wait until our backs are turned and go...

I guess I should have mentioned this, but forgot... we don't have a bedroom door. We live on the 3rd floor of a house, and the only 2 rooms we have up there with doors are the bathroom & laundry room... I guess we could confine them to the laundry room, but I can't imagine they'd be very happy!

I'm 8 1/2 months pregnant with my first baby. My hubby and I are planning on having the baby's crib near our bed, simply because we don't have that much room to put it elsewhere. We also have 2 cats, who love to sleep pretty much anywhere soft. I'm worried that once the baby comes, our bigger...

Oh, twist my rubber arm... Ok. More pictures, as requested! With her favourite toy, which she rarely gets anymore because she gets SO possessive of it she growls so loud she sounds like a tiger and scares me! I've never met such a social cat! She's hard to photograph 'cause she's always...

My husband runs a store, and when he counts the till at the end of the day, our little girl Poppy *always* has something to say about it! Can't quite figure out why. Any ideas?... http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v6...Poppy_0001.flv (sorry about the camera work... I ain't no cinematographer...

Ok. I'm NEARLY past the 6 week pregnancy mark (significant for me, since I miscarried at 6 weeks about 5 months ago), and I'm cautiously optimistic that everything will be fine. I am experiencing some things this time around that weren't an issue the last time, and I'm looking for advice/ input...

I got the official blood test results from my dr.'s appointment yesterday: positive! I'm sooo excited! Although I still don't "feel" pregnant, I'm enjoying the ride so far!

Guess what??? I did a home pregnancy test last night, and it came back positive!!! I am over the moon and stars right now!!! When I showed the test results to my husband, he immediately got up and gave me a big hug. Then he sat down, hugged me around my waist, and kissed my belly. He's really...

Ok. Hopefully the second time's the charm I was 6 weeks pregnant in July, but I miscarried. Besides being emotionally very hard to take, I suffered some physical pain. I had severe cramping, lower back pain and bleeding. I'm 90% sure I'm pregnant again, and although I haven't taken any home...
