    is your male kitten supposed to calm down after neutering?

    I have one boy that still plays that game and he’s neutered. One of my girls is usually tolerant, the other one will slap him away in a hurry.

    Kitten Misbehaviour

    You can try running them through PVC pipe or thick plastic tubing. A little bitter apple spray to discourage interest is also helpful. Provide lots of things that are ok to chew.

    How to help a nearly blind cat find the litter box

    I’ve never used it, but maybe someone can comment on Cat Attract litter and whether that may be of help.

    How to help a nearly blind cat find the litter box

    I don’t know if her vision is the issue. I have a cat who has been blind the entire 3 years I’ve had her and finding the litter boxes has not been an issue. It may be a mobility issue because of her age - getting in and out of the box.

    Post Enucleation/Kitten Stitches

    I’m glad the vet believes it is ok. My girl had both of her eyes removed but they were healed before she came to live with me. Thank you for taking this baby in.

    Cat peeing everywhere, not using litterbox

    Is he neutered?

    My British shorthair (f) getting covered in pee after using the litter tray.

    How many boxes do you have? Does she jump out of the box just after she pees - maybe she isn’t finished?

    Traveling

    i use a sitter when I travel. She comes twice a day. I also get pictures and a “report card”. Find someone you are comfortable with. Your vet may have a tech that provides this kind of service.

    Advice for introducing anxious new cat to elderly dog?

    Sometimes a cat doesn’t recognize a small dog as a different species and acts as though they are meeting another cat. Be sure you keep the cat’s nails clipped so the cat doesn’t accidentally hurt the dog and make the situation worse. Provide the cat with high spaces and you may need to keep a...

    A blind cat. a new home, and cat family to meet

    I’m glad she has a place she can relax and access safely. It’s hard to wait for progress on their timetable.

    A blind cat. a new home, and cat family to meet

    Thank you for helping her. When I adopted Helen and Jack (Jack had one eye, Helen none) I kept them in their own room for about a month. It helped Helen that she had her sibling with her I’m sure. I tried to block off behind shelves where she could get stuck. I also removed any objects for...

    Introduction. HELPPPP!!!

    Have you tried swapping areas? Sometimes they need a chance to smell the other cat without them being in the same space.

    Anyone Here Free Feed Wet Food?

    I leave wet out after “meal time” so I guess I free feed it. I usually travel often and one of my cats would be nervous eating while the sitter is there so I just got into the habit all the time. It’s never been a problem.

    Is Eye Removal Surgery Necessary?

    I also have one with both eyes removed and one with one eye removed. Their surgery was prior to my adopting them but here’s a picture of them recently.

    Going from three servings to two while on vacation

    I feed three wet meals a day but also have a pet sitter only twice a day when I travel. I have the sitter feed larger portions each time to compensate but I don’t have one that monopolizes the wet food.

    Vacation- which option is best

    My cats (at the moment I have multiple but have also traveled when I only had one) do better at home. My sitter comes twice a day and I do usually feed them three times a day when I’m home. I just have the sitter increase the quantity of the feeding when they are only fed twice a day.

    Older male kitten too rough with new kitten?

    That’s a really big size difference between nine months and nine weeks. Maybe you could try a heavy duty play session with him before you have them together to lessen his intensity. I wouldn’t go right from the play session to the together time in case he’s still wired, but maybe a half hour later.

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

    I have left mine for three weeks but I have multiple cats so they are not completely alone. I have a sitter come twice a day. She stays about 45 minutes each time. She turns on the radio for her morning visit so there are voices, music during the day. Usually my out of town trips are limited to...

    Cat & Car Rides

    I hear your concerns about leaving her home overnight but I would have concerns that the cat might get out of the trailer at a camping site.
