    Calming treats for BOTH cats?

    As I previously posted, we have an adult female who’s is generally pretty docile but for whatever reason she corners my adult male who is generally pretty irritable and the hiss-fest and growling and stare-down ensues. No physical fighting other than a bat or two. Should both cats get calming...

    Problems with cleaning

    Hi, those outside cats are causing a lot of stress for your indoor kitties. The enzymatic cleaner is for addressing stains and odor, and needs to be used on every area/spot. A good blacklight (check the customer reviews), which can show a lot since it will also show old spots, can be helpful so...

    Problems with cleaning

    Thank you very much for the info. I will try implement some of these methods. Not sure I can stop neighbour cats coming though, I think we have to move to a different place. My cats didn't have this behaviour when we were living in an apartment and all they had was balcony. There were other cats...

    Reintroduction with cats - moving forward

    Hello, we are in the midst of a reintroduction of our cats after a redirected aggression incident. We are at a point now where we've got a wire gate up and we let them see each other for about 30-45 minutes in the evening during mealtime. However, the aggressor cat won't stop STARING. We feed...

    15 week kitten and 6yr old cat…confused!

    ...to hide, or did he stand his ground? If he stood his ground it was testing boundaries. Just keep doing as you are. You might go to a Tractor Supply or a farm supply store and see if they have some calming treats for cats. give some to George and see if it helps calm him. This WILL straighten out!

    Featured Cat is restless and wont stop meowing

    I think all of us have gone through this at one time or another, after burying numerous little ones who were killed outside and now my cats getting leukemia from being around ferals and strays, All my cats except for my outside strays are strictly indoors. Nothing is worth the heartache of...

    is there hope for my cat to blend in? am i doing this right?

    It takes awhile for senior cats to get used to a new addition. But if they are just hissing they're just saying, "hey! Back off!" One month is very early days in the introduction process. Try taking a dry washcloth and pet each of the resident cats with it and then pet the kitten with it...

    Grieving cat

    I'm so sorry for your loss. Yes, cats can grieve friends even if they were bullies. Nobel grieved Lily very hard. She bullied him. Lots of extra attention, high reward treats. I kept a closer eye on his eating and litter habits. I also used cat calming music and Feliway.

    First post, Any advice or suggestions are most welcome!

    So one of the biggest issues is not having something for them to do during intros. She's charging it as in she's growling and is proofed up or she is hopping at/body checking the door and slamming her feet underneath? I would try spending as much of the day as possible doing gated...

    What to do....

    Yeah, you have not had a good start! 3 weeks is nothing in a cats mind, you will have to take it one day at a time. If you look at that vet visit through her eyes, she was taken from everything she knew to a strange place, and then a stranger came in and tried to grab her. She was terrified...

    Worries about new cat

    I gave treats after a door crack encounter session where I played some of the recommended sounds and it seemed to help them tolerate each other for longer. My resident cat is still hissing/growling and tried to swat the new comer through the door but there seems to be some progress. I’m also...

    Two questions for the same kitty

    Cats will do that when they are upset. You might try two litterboxes for a while too, maybe with a different litter. some cats like number one in one box and number two in another! i really think this will resolve in time. You might try supervising a few more frequent visits with the other cats...

    New cat unaccepted

    It sounds like N wasn't ready for face to face meetings.. we can do all the right things, but we still need to go at the slowest cats pace. :) I'd recommend backing it up. There's no reason why N can't take some time in say your room for a couple hours while the kitten gets out with your male...

    Gabapentin for cat?

    Yikes, sorry to hear it went so badly, particularly since (IMO, anyway) that stuff's not the easiest to administer. (Of course not all cats spit it back at their people like Edwina did!) Those onesie things are not easy; our cats have needed that, too. You could try something like Composure...

    Question about fixing behavior.

    I'm going to present the idea of moving the box in the kitchen and see if she'll go for it, however I'm pretty sure it's the act of walking from one end of the house to the other that Mia avoids. If I pick her up and carry her into the cat room, she'll go in whatever box I put her in. Sometimes...

    Cat prolapse rectum

    FortiFlora is not the greatest probiotic, but for many cats it is a non-medicinal appetite stimulant. I use Calming Care which is a very close product to it and my cats will at least start to eat anything that it is sprinkled on. You might give FF a try to see if he wants to eat. Any Good Tips...

    Calming pills?

    Hi, what else is going on that you might be able to change for him? There are treats like Pet Naturals Calming, and there's Cat Music as well. Can you give him his own room away from other animals or people that are contributing to his stress? Are you feeding him wet food? This might help...

    Foster cat keeps peeing in bed, I'm desperate for more ideas to try 😭

    Yea the main thing it contains is L-tryptophan. There's other treats and stuff with this, specifically for calming cats. I read some promising studies about it, making cats less insecure in new environments etc. I guess if it doesn't have any horrible side-effects, it may be worth a try? Or...

    Keeping cats calm during new roof

    First off, you have a beautiful home, and a beautiful cat-family! I think I remember your post about the dog attack. Have any of the cats had any lasting issues with that? I had a roofing/repair project going on over our heads for several weeks 10 years or so ago, so I feel your pain. My...
