    How long is too long to leave a cat on its own?

    There are a lot of factors to answering this question, but I wanted to get a general consensus anyway. I will be taking a 4 to 6 week backpacking trip, and I plan on leaving my cat at my apartment on his own and to have a friend check in on him daily. My cat sees this person a few times a year...

    Can Change In Food Trigger Cat Hostility?

    I've had my 1 year old cat for about three weeks and have been giving it the same dry cat food the SPCA was giving it before I got him. I found a sweet deal on cat food at a local pet store and I'm beginning to transition him to the new food by going 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and eventually full change...
