    Weight Control Help!

    I may have to resort to that... I do remember seeing around this site a formula to see how many calories should a cat eat?? Given that I will need to recalculate his intake month by month I'd rather have in on hand.

    Weight Control Help!

    I limit their food and feed them at certain times, but they eat so slow that is the same as free feeding. Their bowls always have some food on them. I will check on the grain free food. We went through a rough patch and had to lower a bit the quality of their food. We are feeding them Kirkland...

    Help!!! I do not know what to do! Cats suddenly turned aggressive

    Well, another update. Last night we swapped places between Akodo and Soshi. Right now Soshi has run of the house and Akodo is in our bedroom. We kept the door closed to keep changes at the minimum. We spent a pretty quiet night. We were afraid that Soshi, bieng the shy and skittish of the two...

    Best kitty litter?

    We just use Tidy Cats, but the Performance 24/7 variety. it is very light scented and has a bit of dust, but we transfer from a new box to a bucket when the later is empty, and we do it on the patio so after that we have no dust problems at all. Scooping daily we only need to refill once a week...

    Where to put a litter box in a small house without it stinking up the place

    Ours use a huge covered one without problem. It is in a corner of the den and is pretty ugly, but there are no smells. As everyone has said, scooping daily, lots of water and good food is the key. Our litter is the Tidy Cats performance unscented. It clumps great and has very good odor control...

    Help!!! I do not know what to do! Cats suddenly turned aggressive

    Again that's for all your words and advice. @Anne we know that this could take a long time, but it is disenhearting that is happening after 6 months of perfect co-existence. We don't know when they are really moving forward or when is temporary and both are so cuddly that seems unfair to us to...

    Help!!! I do not know what to do! Cats suddenly turned aggressive

    Looks like I spoke too soon. yesterday we went out some hours and given their behaviour the last few days we let Akodo and Soshi free. we returned to find both with spongy tails, growling and Akodo had a tender spot in one of his hind legs. We found some single line scratched on him, one over...

    Help!!! I do not know what to do! Cats suddenly turned aggressive

    Ok, It's been a couple of days since the last update and thing have been going almost perfect. THey now play with each other, and I would even dare to say that they're more playful than before. Also we've left the bedroom door open these nights and both are back to cudling on our bed. Akodo...

    Help!!! I do not know what to do! Cats suddenly turned aggressive

    Today we kept the door open again, again another small victory, we had non aggressive contact! :D Akodo had taken command of a box fort that we have in a corner and Soshi came to see, they actually touched noses and trilled a bit. A couple of non aggressive swats and some seconds of mock play...

    So you say that it's ok to let them "fight" their issues? I just don't want them to be hurt :(
