It's that time of year! 🎃 I love Halloween and I think Salem must be a fan of classic horror flicks. :lol: I keep a shower curtain on my bed when I am not in it as we have had a pee problem in the past. Salem is better now, but why risk it, right? Anyways, when I am in bed I keep the curtain...
I have had my 3 year old DLH, Salem since she was 4 ½ weeks old. She is “different” to the point where she might be considered special needs just because of her behavioral problems, but she has some physical issues as well that need continued maintenance. Anyways, this post really isn’t about...
I can't find my little one's food anywhere in store or online. Every flavor and size bag of dry Crave is gone. It is weird because even the Crave brand wet food is gone. But, the Crave brand wet and dry dog food is fully stocked. I buy Salem the adult chicken Crave brand dry cat food. (Yes, I...
At lot has happened in the last few months and I kept thinking I should post on here for some advice, but was either busy or just too stressed to type it out. This post will probably be pretty long, sorry.
So . . . A few months ago Salem, my 2 year old, peed in her play cubes. It was the...
I have been using a soft carrier for my 2 year old, Salem. But, she has grown way bigger than I could have ever predicted. Plus she is overweight (working on that). The carrier that we have is only rated for 12 lbs and Salem is now 18 lbs. She is not just overweight either. Salem is really...
I need help from dog lovers located in and around Virginia. My little sister has a sweet German shepherd- boxer cross that needs to re homed asap. Her name is Alice and she is an amazing dog who is great with other dogs and little kids. Alice is 5 years old and my sister took her in 3 years...
Salem, my 2 year old domestic long hair, is getting really bad about claw trimming. I have had her since she was 4 1/2 weeks old and this has been steadily getting worse and worse. I live alone and Salem will not let anyone else near her. So, I am on my own with this. I have to flip her onto...
I am planning to take Salem, my almost 2 year old "kitten", to the vet during their vaccine clinic day this Friday. I have planned it out the best I can, but I am really nervous. So, I guess I am here asking for some last minute advice or maybe just a little encouragement. I adopted Salem...
I need some advice from the dog lovers on this site. My parents have a 5ish year old spayed female named Flurry. I think she is a corgi - terrier mix. A family member that Flurry was very attached to just died of cancer. My family is grieving and people are stressing out planning the...
My little one, Salem is about 19 months(?)old and was born on May 13th, 2018. So, last winter she still had her kitten coat. This winter . . . WOW! :jawdrop: I thought after she got her adult coat this past summer, that that was pretty much it. Salem spends all her time warm, inside (don't...
So, I just had a crazy kitty mom moment. :biggrin: Salem loves to snuggle in bed with me and watch movies on my laptop. I mean she actually watches the movies. She loves computer animated, brightly colored movies and her favorite seems to be Finding Nemo 🐟. Anyways, I was watching a Marvel...
I am more than a little frustrated with the new site. Every other thing I click on leads me to an error try again later message. :frustrated:I can't read new post and this is the third time I am trying to post this. :crash: I am not receiving any of my email notifications even though I made...
I am not sure if this is the right place to post this. It could fit in a few different places.
I know this was a bit long, but I though some people here might find this interesting. Sorry, some of the pictures are not of the best quality. Most were taken more than 15 years ago by teenage me...
My senior (RIP 2018) Reeses, had such bad teeth by the time she came into my care that there was little I could do. I want to give my 17 month old kitten, Salem the best start to life as possible. She is the first cat that I am raising on my own from kittenhood. I have been brushing her...
I woke up this morning to find Salem holding her right eye half shut. The eye is a little watery, but no real discharge. She has probably been rubbing it all night because some of the hair just around the border of her eye is thinned. It looks like she is wearing white eye liner. The iris...
I have a few questions about cat grooming and cat grooming products. My 14 month old's (domestic medium hair, female) coat seems to be oily or greasy. A few months ago her coat was clean, fluffy and silky. Now, the greasiness started to develop as it got warmer here and as she went through...
I am not sure if this is the right spot for this post. It is a mix of topics. So, today is a special day for me. One year ago today, on June 15th, I both adopted my Salem and lost Reeses. I most definitely don't recommend adopting the same day you bury a fur baby, especially when the one you...
I have had many cats in my life and most of them treated bugs like a delicacy that must be savored. I grew up with a cat that would only eat crickets, but not their back legs. So, we would often find little piles of back legs in his favorite sleeping spots. I have had cats that would catch a...
My little one is growing up so fast! :bawling: Salem will be a year old on May 13th and I thought it would be kind of fun to share a little about her and get some suggestions for her birthday gifts. I can't spend a lot with my tight budget. But, it's her first birthday and I want to spoil her...
My parents are moving in the next month and have two outdoor cats that they are taking with them. They plan to keep the cats confined to an enclosed outdoor porch area at the new house. How long should the cats be confined before they can be let loose on the new property? Are there any...
