Dear all, I am writing mostly to get my emotions off of my chest. A year and a half ago, I moved to the United States to pursue the dream I had since I was a little kid to explore my American identity (born in the States and moved to France when I was very young). The best way to finally do...

Hey everyone. This will have to be a summer project, because I have 0 time to build this! Right now what happens is that she goes to the bathroom in the evening and I scold Salmon whenever he even moves to go see what she's doing. She's been pooping more often with this policing, even though...

Thank you for the detailed response! Reading about it makes it sound complicated, but I think I can do it... I just need to make the time for it.

It doesn't exist, apart from one project from a few years ago that would amount to 300 bucks anyway. Thanks a lot! I didn't think something like that would be possible. I'll look into it illico presto. Did the cat(s) who wasn't allowed in that box naturally use the other one(s) available?

That would be a good idea... I wonder if that exists.

Hi, there I'm back with my cat's "bullying" issues. The main problem he poses is that every time he hears or sees his sister go to the bathroom, he rushes to check it out and bother her while she goes. She hates it and either stops what she's doing or hesitates to go in the first place. The...

Her mats are really big but the vet hasn’t said anything. I’ll make sure that my mom will ask about that too on her appointment. I already told her that I think the vet should trim her if he thinks it’s okay. He just did her butt because she gets dirty there. She has other options on the ground...

She’s back at it...

I read on one of the websites you attached that since the cat drinks and urinates so much, it masks a kidney issue because it’s healthy with hyperthyroidism. But as soon as you manage that, kidney issues pop up. Apparently she had some issues and they changed the kibble and now the tests turned...

Well you’re right but I felt that they all under diagnosed our cats and we could have prevented certain things sometimes. Pelote has an appointment on the 2nd. Hopefully he agrees to get other blood tests done. We had another cat a few years back who popped up at my mom’s house and had...

Here she is! Pelote, which means ball (of yarn) in French. She was just enjoying scratches. She went out again at 6 am but came back in this time and stayed in the warmth.

I’ll call today to get another appointment and ask another blood test (without saying I was on the internet haha). She was seen by two different vets already (insert eye roll)... It’s kind of a rural area here, they are not keen on looking for “big” diagnoses right away which has always pissed...

Hey, all! I'm at my mom's for the holidays and posting because we're worried about our older cat. She is 17 and a half, usually fed dry but has been eating wet lately. Everything is amazing on the blood test. My mom brought her in for something she had and I don't remember what but she had...

Oh wow my topic got pretty popular--thanks, peeps! I vacuum a lot (I try to do so every day but school gets a little in the way right now, although I'm sure everybody is just as busy) and use wet/damp clothes on surfaces. But the fur is in the air so it's basically like dust... It just lands...

So no magic tricks or smart supplies I'm missing out on, huh... I already vacuum and use wet cloths for surfaces. I never thought of the lint roller other than on linen, though, that's interesting.
