Hello Everyone. Jake is 2 year old, he's a very loving and social cat. In the pass couple weeks he's been pooping, but never urinating, in the area right beside his litter box. During this period of time I have changed to a new job, which I am away at work for 8-10 hours a day. Before this I...

I adopted a kitten six months ago, and I have been living alone with Gimli for seven years. I am away from home or working in the home office 7-10 hours a day. For me, I feel it's all worthwhile when I see Gimli and kitten basking together on the window, slow blinking and grooming each other. I...

I have been using this diffuser and it's smaller variant around the house for the last couple years. Neither cats seems to mind them and sleeps on the bed adjacent to one of them regularly (while it's on). When diffusing essential oils I just dilute them with tap water, which are safe to drink...

I think you're describing "love biting". It's mostly about learning to read the signs of when she wants to bite. I like to think my adult cat has learned to read my signs too over the years. Now I just tense up a little bit and he knows not to bit any harder.

Hi! It's hard to say exactly what goes on in a cat's mind. Is Misty baffing(grooming, licking) the kitten? Do they chirrup and purr at each other? Maybe the kitten has triggered the maternal instinct in Misty. If there's no sign of aggression or stress, and both eating enough and using the...

Hi Neo815, I hope I understood your question correctly; you are asking if it is possible for an outdoor cat who has bonded with you and lives at your house to start living in another place with other people. I think yes it is possible for a stray cat, or even a very outdoor cat that is...

For me it took two months before all the hissing and swatting stopped, and another few weeks before they started hanging out.

It'd be no problem to separate them at this point. You can always adjust the amount of time they are together. As long as they each have their own food, water and litter. As long as they aren't overly aggressive and causing physical injury during play time then it's OK to let them go at it a...

Hi mikachoooo, Do you know the circumstances around how she got injured? It sounds like Neko is recovering well physically since she is moving around fine, despite being cautious of her surroundings. It has only been a month so maybe she is still feeling some discomfort form the wounds? It's...

Hi LindahAndOreo, First of all I don't think Oreo "hates" you or your family. Introducing a new cat will almost always mean some adjustment time and needs patience. Four months ago I introduced a kitten to my home with one existing adult cat. It took close to three months before the hissing and...

That's worth a try! Sometimes I do the opposite to get Gimli to come home by shaking the treat jar by the door. It really depends on what interests the cat more though, the toy/treat or whatever he sees outside. I think the only concern in your case is if the kitten manages to jumps from the...

I would just be really careful he's not slipping out the door with you. I have a 5 month old kitten that's been trying to follow my adult cat out, and he's quick too. I caught him several times making a run for the connected neighbors balcony, where all the cats hang out. I have been picking him...

And you as well!

Hi Kindartip, I think it is up to both you and the cat to decide. It sounds like you and your cat are quite attached to each other. The cat will have to adjust to a new environment, although it sounds like she is familiar with your parents already, which will make it easier. Meanwhile, you will...

Thank you everyone, we haven't thought of a name for him yet. The other cat of the house is Gimli, we actually only came up of that name long after he's been living with us, so we're trying to think of something that fit the lore, or wait for other good idea to appear. In any case, we greet the...

Big one is Gimli, 8 years old, there seen hanging out on neighbors balcony, his buddy Thomas, a very composed and wise tuxedo, lives there. The little guy is...little Gimli? We haven't thought of a name for him yet, he was adopted last month and now 5 months old.

Yep, Gimli would get on my lap and sniff the phone. If I have my headset on for a long converasation, he'd sit close to me to make sure I'm not going nuts making random human noises at thin air for an hour.

I adopted him 6 weeks ago, now he's just over 5 months old. He's a supercharged purring motor, with a mini blackhole for stomach ;)
