I've never noticed or had this problem before and now I feel very stuck. I keep finding black chunks of rubber/plastic in this cat food. It's a brand I had never realized was quite so bad (Nestle's Purina Friskies). I'm almost out of it (thank god) but I need to figure out a different brand...

Sorry for the delay in responses, everyone. Things have been busy here. I keep leopard geckos and welcomed a new baby boy gecko into the family so I've been fussing over him as he settles into his new home while also, of course, fussing over Pecan, Artemis and Callisto. To start this reply off...

I do care. You're making unfair, somewhat hurtful assumptions about me without even knowing my situation. I asked here in hopes of recieving advise or recommendation. It costs $360+ USD where I am just to be seen for an hour by a behaviorist to determine whether treatment is appropriate and an...

Last year I acquired a kitten from a friend. Said cat was born September 17th (so she's nearly a year old now, I got her at 10-11 weeks of age). She's a dilute calico, short-hair. Her entire litter was born with SEVERE fever coat (I had only ever seen fever coat in black cats/primarily black...

That's what I'm thinking. I'm curious to see the outcome of her eyes. Her twin sister has similar eyes, but they have a noticeable reddish-orange hint to them.

I know it can be difficult to determine a cat's adult appearance simply by looks alone, especially at earlier stages. For example- my calico and tortoiseshell were complete opposites as kittens, then flip-flopped as adults. (Calico was very fluffy, ended up short-haired an adult. Tortie was very...

Awesome, thank you. I gave her a bath earlier with just a little bit of the mane and tail and kept her bundled up until her fur was mostly dry, then let her do her own thing once her feet were completely dry. She's doing great now. Still a bit itchy but not as crusty feeling haha.

I brought home my new baby, Pecan on Monday and have been inspecting her and picking at her frequently to make sure that she's clean. Unfortunately, she did come to me with fleas (I discovered quickly at home after inspecting and finding flea dirt). I have some questions about dealing with this...

I've never had a cockroach problem in my home. Even after a started breeding a larger exotic species of cockroach, haha. What ones escape either died or hung around until I found them (dazed, confused) wandering around in odd places. They're a tropical variant though, so they don't do well in...

Hi! I'm new here. Er. I'll put that aside for now. I'm the owner of two 'mutt' cats, as I like to call them. Both were given to us from family/friends as kittens, and in both situations, one or both parents were semi to fully feral. I have a short-haired calico and a long-haired tortoiseshell...
