Thank you for keeping her inside! It's really normal with skittish cats to have some set-backs when you get home. Think of building trust with this scaredy-cat like a trust bank that you have with her. She was outside so she probably came to your home running on a negative trust bank for all...

Egyptian Maus have really high energy. She should settle a bit after spaying. Do you have mental stimulation set up for her also? Like food puzzles? What about something like the flopping fish she can use to get her wrestle energy out. Cats, when playing often play for 5 to 10 minutes, then...

Sounds like she has a chronic urinary issue. Did you talk to the vet about FIC? Feline Idiopathic Cystitis | VCA Animal Hospitals

The angle right here, makes it hard to know what the cat playing reacted like. So the floofy cat moves forward, ears are up, body relaxed. This is certainly play. But we can see the original cat has her ears pinned back though she is looking forward. She is not comfortable with what is...

I leave the carrier out all the time and then I just pet and talk to them while we are there. I didn't find gabapentin did anything for Ghost and he can't tell me if it made him feel better.

Usually the term cat TV also includes bird watching through windows etc.

Hope all goes well at your appointments!

Some cats get sleepy and some cats get hyper. Nothing are normal. It's great to know how your cats react so you can use it appropriately for them. For you for example you'll want to play with your cat first.

Common issue does not mean normal. Please don't mistake the two. 1% of the time is it behavioural only. Usually what happens after a UTI is called litterbox aversion. The cat worries the litter box is what makes the painful urination. So doing what Rubysmama suggested above should determine...

Since she just got spayed her hormones won't be completely gone either. It's possible she does this when she's uncomfortable (such as in heat) and the surgery made her uncomfortable (stiches healing) so she pees on your bed when uncomfortable. What kind of litter are you using?

To teach a kitten to clean themselves, use a dampened toothbrush and stroke them with it.

I've never heard of anyone mentioning both are bad! As long as you are playing with your cat with a wand toy or something too it should be fine.

Cats need movement and engagement. As long as laser pointers or watching through a window aren't the only things, it's fine. Cats don't catch every prey when they are outdoors either. Some people online started saying laser pointers were bad and cat tv was good. But their reason for lasers...

Canned tuna is not nutritionally complete for a cat. You can get canned cat food that is tuna from brands like Fancy Feast. If you're just adding some tuna on top it should be okay. It should be safe from bird flu but there are no guarantees on anything with all the recalls these days.

Start with a qtip when she's tired and work up to a toothbrush.

If claws are out it's swatting. If there's growling or hissing it's swatting. Boxing happens when a cat is curious or playful. So you would see that kind of body language from them.

Boxing can be a normal part of play. That's like swatting but with no claws. If you visit my media, there's a video of Magnus boxing at Calcifer during introductions. Swatting is a sign of aggression and it should be attempted to intervene before it happens. Hissing is communication and...

Oh good to know she's back to normal! Oh dear. Sometimes they can catch a cold from being at the vet. Hopefully that resolves soon.

Well it was not usual but occasionally when an owner does something on instinct, it works for their cats and that's what happened for you! It can ge important for an older cat to have time to observe a new addition. It can be hard to explain the difference in cat body language between observing...
