    Has Anyone Dealt With This?

    I recently trapped a senior cat (10+ years) who had been living between a hospital and parking garage in our inner city. He wasn't doing well. He was severely dehydrated when I picked him up, and also appeared very malnourished. He is FIV+, blind, has a 3/5 heart murmur, is extremely skinny...

    My little kitty's fur has been getting more and more interesting. Does anyone else have a cat that looks like this? I've had torties but none of them looked quite this silly :)

    Tortie Or Torbie?

    Is this little kitty a tortie or a torbie? I understand the difference... But I can't tell if there is tabby in the dark color or not. And her thick light colored undercoat makes it harder for me to tell. Any other color/pattern insights you guys would care to share?

    Almost 8 Weeks Old :)

    Can't believe we've almost had her for 4 weeks already. She's a little terror. Do you think she'll have really short fur? Our other cats have longer hair.

    Cat's Ears?

    This little kitty's ears are folded at the top. It's really hard to get a good picture, but the tips of her ears are really thick and kind of curl forward. Is this normal?

    Found The Best Natural Litter So Far.

    So, with three cats and a small apartment, good litter is a necessity. I have experimented with almost every litter imaginable and have finally settled on a good one. So Phresh, the Petco brand, came out with a grass-seed litter that has the best clumping of any natural litter I've ever used...

    My Cat Is In Love With A Shoe String...

    Our small cat has always loved playing, but things have recently gotten out of hand. She has started an affair with a boot lace. I played with it one time and now she won't stop. She carries it around and wails for us to play with it, even if we just did for a half-hour. When we don't have it...

    Long Haired Calico...what Breed Might Be Mixed In?

    My latte has such long hair and a really thick undercoat. It reminded me of a maine coon my dad used to have when I was little, but she doesn't have the same face. What do you think gave her that long fur?

    Does Anyone Have Cat's With Eosinophilic Granuloma?

    Our white cat was diagnosed with this a while ago and has gone through rounds of pred but she still gets some flares and I don't know the aggravating factor. I was just wondering what other people's experience were.

    Kitty Needs Help With Playtime

    So we adopted a stray cat from outside in March. She underwent surgeries and was rather sleepy, shy, and quiet when we got her. Now I can hardly ever get her to pipe down... This kitty often begs for playtime. We play with our kitties for a decent amount of our evening and sometimes morning. I...

    Meet Cupcake - A Stray Success

    I see so many sad stories about strays that I thought I would post a happy one. We live in a very urban part of town, and one day as we came home from the park, we saw a little white kitty in the hospital parking lot hiding in between some cars. We happened to have some cat food on us (from...

    Introduction Gone Wrong

    I joined this site mostly because of our "new" cat cupcake. She was a stray cat outside that I was feeding in the hospital parking lot next to our apartment. Eventually she got inside (I have absolutely no idea how that happened) and went to the vet. She had a massive flea infestation, skin...

    Long-legged Kitty - What Am I?

    We now have this kitty that has unusually long legs compared to any other cat I've ever owned. I'm guessing she's just a plain old domestic short hair... but the long legs got me :) Does she maybe have something else mixed in there?
