My 2 boys (16 months ish) have just started shedding, slowly in the last week or so but more heavily the last few days. I'm keeping up with the little tumbleweeds of hair (Just!) But I'm hoping to hear some opinions on how long it takes for them to shed all that winter fluff? Its such a simple...

I have 4 little kittens living in my spare room. I am fostering them for a local shelter. They were found in a bin at 3-4 weeks so no mum around (unfortunately in the country i live in that is depressingly common.) They were given cooked beef before they came to us (noooooo) so we've had a full...

One of my boys has a possible eye infection. Eye looks slightly pink and its runny but its clear discharge (with 'eye boogers' after naps!) He seems to be himself, eating like a piggy, drinking, playing and getting into trouble. He looks like hes holding his eyes shut slightly but they dont seem...

Has anybody ever had a confident cat take a fright and then become permanently more shy? Neither of my cats have been shy before. Theyre about 9 months ish i think. Last week we had a guy in to install some internet. In a series of unfortunate events, he dropped a box of screws and as he was...

Hiya, I hope this belongs in the 'nutrition' forum, its a food/behaviour question! I have a temporary foster cat in my spare room (well away from my two resident kitties.) She is very, very stressed from the changes. She seemed quite bright and curious when her owner dropped her off as they...

For various reasons, my friend is looking for a new apartment that accepts cats - but he literally has 3 days before his roomie opens the door and kicks kitty out...we're not letting that happen! I said I would foster her for 2-3 weeks while he either rehomes her properly or hopefully finds a...

This is Aristotle and Socrates :) (Ari and Socks for short) Ari is the gangly tabby who looks half octopus: and Socks is the pretty bicolour: I live in Spain and we have a terrible stray/abandoned kitten and puppy problem. I don't know anyone in this area who hasn't found at least one kitten...

My boy is about 7 months, have had him and his brother for around 2 months. They're my first cats in my adult life - we had cats when I was a kid. I don't ever remember those cats 'growling' but I suppose in hindsight big cats growl, why not my little guy! Just now Ari started growling when we...

I'm picking up my 2 boy kittens in 2 hours from being neutered (my poor babies!) and my co-worker just mentioned in passing 'what will you use for litter, shredded paper?' Call me silly but it didn't even occur to me that normal litter would be a problem until she said it, but of course I can't...

Hello! I have probably one of the most lovely 'problems' to have with my kitties. They're about 6 months old, 2 boisterous boys who are very playful but also very cuddly. We've had them about 6 weeks now, i bonded very fast with them and we adore each other...it's lovely really, they follow me...
