    Breed of my cat

    Yeah she is a domestic short hair just I always wondered about what her breed could be because she is so small. Also I have a part Himalayan so that also peaked my interest in finding out she she was.

    Breed of my cat

    OK so I adopted Mischief when she was 3 months at a animal aid shelter in town. She is 4 now going on 5. I have never had the money to check her genetic background but I think I have figured it out just by reading up on the breeds. I know she is not full breed, she is mixed, but when I read this...

    Both a Behavior and health question

    I've used one of those before on her when we brought a puppy into the household and she didn't react well then. It didn't do much to help and we ended up having to give up the puppy cause both him and Shadow fought viciously (this was right at the beginning of her illness)

    Both a Behavior and health question

    This question is based on both my cat's health and her aggression... My 5 year old is ill, she has lymphoma. She was diagnosed about a year ago and so far she has been doing great. She is over weight, 20lbs so she is large... My other cat is 3 and she is the size of a kitten, only 5 lbs. My...

    Being VERY clingy

    She is indoor, we always keep our cats indoor and we fix them right away. I seriously can't think of anything that has changed in the house...even small things. We haven't moved any furniture, bought anything new. We live a very quiet, boring life. Nothing ever changes. She is a very very...

    Being VERY clingy

    I love the fact she is more cuddly and friendly but she has gotten very clingy...I forgot to mention she always wakes me up throughout the night for attention. She walks across me or nudges me till I wake up and then wants to be petted and then lets me go back to sleep for another hour till she...

    Being VERY clingy

    My one cat Mischief has been very clingy to me for the past month now and it's actually getting on my nerves. It is completely out of the ordinary for her. Her usual attitude is "don't touch me unless I come to you to be touched" and even if she comes to you she ducks out of your reach. She...

    Overweight Cat

    ok well since alot of you seem to have a good reaction with the treat ball I will try it with Shadow. Doesn't hurt to try and right now I need to try everything I can to get her to loose this weight. I'm sorry to hear your cat had a seizure before it's always hard when they go through things...

    Overweight Cat

    I know about treat balls I had one for my puppy I had until he started to want to become Alpha in the house and started to viciously attack Shadow, so we had to give him up for adoption. Since he was a miniature Dachshund it was a small treat ball and I tried it on Shadow a few times and she had...

    Had to rescue cat from evil paper bag

    I don't think I have had a cat yet that has not managed to get 'attacked' by the evil bags. One thing I don't understand is why our kitties think that backing up is going to get them out of everything
