As the title suggests, I need advice regarding an automatic Litter box. I'm not new to cats, but I've never had an automatic box, so I'd like suggestions based on the following: cost, ability to hide smell, models to strongly consider, or avoid. I currently keep a non-covered regular box in...

Hey, all! First, I'm not sure if I have the right section (couldn't decide between here and Cat Health), so I'm hoping for the best. I'm wondering if folks have any suggestions for flea prevention. Long story short, my Patches had a reaction (lethargic and loss of appetite) after wearing a...

I'd like to hear opinions on how to determine if a particular cat would like a second cat in the home, or if they wouldn't, or if they wouldn't care either way. Is there any way to get an idea of this? I'm curious to know how my girl would feel about another cat in the house. I already have a...

I don't think I have to be worried, but I wanted to ask on here. Yesterday, at some point while I was at work, Patches got into some Irish Soda bread, and overnight, she had diarrhea. She's eating and acting completely normal, so I don't think there's much cause for concern (although I now...

Hey, all. Recently, I began to think about my cats, and wonder about their lineage. Mostly, this is for my own amusement, but part of me also wonders if knowing more about my current kitty's background could help me to provide her with better healthcare, etc (I know in dogs, for instance...

I have a new (to me) cat. I've had her home for two weeks (yesterday). The only info I have on her is that she's a year and a half old, and that she was an owner surrender in Tennessee (I'm in NY state). I know it's normal for cats to always want to eat, and they don't have a shut off. But, with...

My last cat was a big cuddle bug, especially as he got older. There was a time when he was playful, but I feel like less so than my new little girl (they do say Torties have an extra big personality). She's young, too (a year and a half), and is far more playful/energetic, and curious than a...

Hello, all. For those who haven't seen my other threads around the forum, long story short, I'm not new to cats, but I am new on here. Recently, I lost my cat and now have a new one. Admittedly, my last cat owned me, but this time I'm determined not to let that happen (I know, I know, fat...

Hello. I'm fairly new on here, so I hope I have this in the right section. If not, please feel free to move it. I'm not new to cats, but I do have a new kitty after recently losing my first ever kitty. I've been reading a lot about different cat behaviors, and trying to deter unwanted ones...

Hello, all. I'm John from Upstate NY. I'm not new to cats, but I am new to this site. Unfortunately, I recently lost my cat, Denver, who I was told was a two year old Domestic Long Hair when I adopted him from a local rescue. We had 13 wonderful years together. Although for a few years...

MOD NOTE: This thread was originally started in our Crossing the Bridge forum. Since there's a new kitty in the house, a new thread has been started about her integration. The original thread about losing Denver is here. Thank you all! I do feel it's time. As I said, I just want to be sure...

Hey, all. I recently lost my beloved Denver (I'll post his picture on this thread). I swore up and down, prior to losing him, I'd never get another cat. But, not quite a week later, I already find myself wanting a new cat. I miss Denver dearly, and I know I'll never replace him, but I miss...

Hello. I'm brand new on here, and this is my first thread. I recently lost my cat, and although I hadn't planned to get another, I really miss having a cat in the house, and so many need a home. I just know I'll be getting another, but before I do, I wanted to ask a couple of questions. One on...
