    How To Stop Fixating Behavior|cat Introduction

    I've made a post about introducing my two cats before, but I don't need the same help as I did before. I think our current issue is Piper's fixation on Cherry. So a little background: I've had Cherry since 2011 when she was 7 months old. She's now 7 and was only with other cats when she was at...

    The Mega Pawsitive Fundraiser

    Well, I'm happy that both Cherry and Piper have made my boyfriend a fan of cats. He always thought Cherry was funny and loving, but she would only really be like that with me. But now that we have Piper, she's been so attached to my BF. At night I watch her snuggle up to him and try to get him...

    Need Food Recommendations For Both Cats

    I'll have to see what Wal-Mart carries. I usually buy my food off amazon in bulk. And I definitely don't think I'll do Science Diet. I remember not hearing a lot of good things about them. :/ And I guess the Friskies = junk food makes sense for why Cherry loves it. She's such a junk food...

    Need Food Recommendations For Both Cats

    So I'm trying to figure out some different foods for both of my girls. Cherry: Since I've had her she's had stomach issues. When I first got her she had coccidia and horrible diarrhea. That was treated, but she's still always had soft stools and was really gassy (she could kill with those...

    Swollen Lymph Nodes?

    It's not cancer! Most likely it is an infection so we're going in to pick up some antibiotics today.

    Swollen Lymph Nodes?

    Well today was her check up. One lymph node went back to normal but the other one stayed large and hardened a bit. The vet was concerned by this and I ended up having the vet aspirate the lymph node and send out a sample. We should find out the results by Saturday. Fingers crossed it doesn't...

    Cat Has Chronic Diarrhea

    When I brought Cherry home from the shelter she had coccidia (which looks like grains of rice in their poop). It caused her to have horrible diarrhea. After treatment, it got better but she didn't go back to have solid stools and was super gassy. A few years ago I switched her to a grain free...

    Swollen Lymph Nodes?

    A few days ago I noticed Piper had two lumps on her jaw. I assumed they were her lymph nodes because of the location and brought her into the vet yesterday. The vet said she was perfectly healthy and she wasn't sure what it could be. She recommended we wait two weeks and see what happens. If...

    Keeping Her From Eating Plants

    Not sure what your windows look like, but at my apartment we have huge windows and I've seen some of our neighbors have made shelves halfway up the windows and have plants growing there. That could be a consideration. Or even just put up a shelf on a wall that gets some sun. That's what we've...

    New Cat Being Aggressive Toward Other Cat

    So we've kept them separate without doing any meetings for the past few days. They both seem to have calmed down a lot. Piper's personality is still developing and it's been nice having that develop while she isn't focused on beating Cherry up. They've both also been checking eachother out under...

    Hello!

    And now they have one more tank lol. The deal with my boyfriend was if I get another cat he gets two more fish tanks. I was hoping it would keep him in check but he decided he was ok with another cat.

    Hello!

    Hello, I'm oceanmist. My boyfriend and I have two cats, Cherry and Piper. I adopted Cherry back in 2011 when she was 7 months old. She has been quite the handful throughout the years. Her antics include a paper stealing phase, a toys-in-the-toilet/dog bowl phase, and currently a laser pointer...

    New Cat Being Aggressive Toward Other Cat

    We recently adopted a second cat, Piper. She is 2 years old and we were told she was good with the other cats at the shelter once her kittens were older. Our current cat, Cherry, is 7 years old and has been an only cat for 6 years. Before that she was in a shelter that let the cats interact in a...
