Sorry it’s taken so long for me to respond! I passed on your guys’ advice, and thank you so much for that, because I’ve got great news! They seem to be getting along okay now! No more crazy fights, so we’re all super relieved. Moon loves having a friend and it seems to have calmed him—no recent...

Salt and Pepper! It’s my profile picture, but too cute not to share:

Thank you so much, guys. I’ve been passing along this information and it’s been really helpful. My sister did decide to put them together again, after allowing the new cat (who is now named Mars!) to explore the house with Moon locked away. The new introduction worked alright, but now the...

Thank you so much! That’s all so reassuring. I like the feeding idea, but unfortunately the bottom of the door is wooden, so they can only see each other if they’re standing up tall. It might still be helpful anyway. Here are the videos again—trying YouTube now, lol. The first two are more...

Hello everyone! My sister got a black kitten named Moon a couple months ago. He’s nine months old now, and just so super playful that they thought getting a friend for him might be a smart idea. So they got a new orange and white kitten, who is four months old. They’re about the same size as...

I’m very much struggling with my cats and food. I have them on a half wet food, half dry food diet. Wet food currently consists of Applaus and American Journey—basically whatever they’ll eat that I can find on sale. I don’t think that’s causing any issues—of course, Pepper (my skinnier cat)...

Sorry it’s been so long!! I meant to update you sooner but then things got crazy. Bad news: my cats would not touch the Authority flaked food. They actually like the pate better, which is just... I don’t even know what to say about that. But they don’t love either. At all. Good news: The...

Thank you for your replies, everyone! Sorry I haven’t had a chance to respond—I’ve been super busy with work. I’ve done a ton of research, based off of these responses, and I’ve decided to go with Wysong Epigen Chicken for the dry food. For now, I’m going to try Authority for wet, but of course...

Hello everyone! It’s been a while. So, to jump right in—a few months back, I finally got a job so now I’m paying for all of my cats’ stuff instead of my parents paying for it (I’m almost 20, but due to college and whatnot only got a real job now). So now that I’m making my own money... I figure...

I think it very much depends on your cat. My two (2 year olds) each get one 5.5 oz can in the evening plus their dry food in the mornings. They’re indoor-outdoor though and one of them, at least, is more toward the skinny side than anything. So, how active your cat is would definitely effect it...

Thank you so so much!! I had no idea how to do that... really answers all my questions. Thanks again!

Getting one of my cats to consistently eat wet food has always been a struggle for me, but recently I’ve found some food that both of my cats adore. Neither of them will eat pate-style food anymore, which is a bit annoying because from what I’ve found that’s mostly the most healthy kind :/ That...

Does Tiny go outside at all? I’m wondering if it might be good for her to go outside on a leash or something. It could give her more stimulation and I know that my cats at least love peeing in the grass. Don’t know if that helps at all, and of course it would probably be nearly impossible to...

Pepper got the nickname Froot Loops because I dropped one on the floor the other day and he hurried over and ate it up (why do cats not touch a piece of chicken or meat but want random non-cat-food items like cereal?? Lol). He also gets called Pep, Pepsi, Pepsi-Cola, amd Peppery-pep. I sometimes...

Well, the cats are indoor/outdoor so unfortunately the fleas could be coming in from everywhere. What products do you recommend to treat the house and yard? We’ve got a problem with fire ants outside too so if it would kill them too that wouldn’t hurt XD I actually haven’t currently got a vet I...

I agree with @amethyst—my cats LOVE those ball on track toys and just spinning one ball for them can get them playing with it for ten minutes. I didn’t expect it to be that great—but now it’s the best purchase I’ve ever made for my cats!

Hello! I (or, my cats) are having an absolutely awful time with the fleas here. We live in Tennessee, if that matters. So I’ve tried Advantage and Advecta II, but neither of them have been working very well. They’ll maybe work for about a week or two, then I’ll start to notice lots of fleas...

Sorry to post twice, but I wasn’t sure how to edit my previous answer with another quote. Haha me too actually! My friend has assured me that it’s actually not at all like that though... actually the first time she heard of a rendering plant, she was terrified... then somehow that terror grew...

It wasn’t really so cut and dry as that—she’s just walked me through the general process... and has told me where the meat comes from. Of course, the plant she works at only processes salmon (they used to process chicken though). There’s no... defining point, it’s just her telling me stuff and...

I’ve got a close friend who actually works at a rendering plant, and she rolls her eyes at most of what she hears about the horrors of meat by-products/rendering plants. Meat byproduct is actually a condensed form of protein, very nutrient-rich, actually. It’s very interesting to research; I...
