So cute! Lily and our eldest cat, Marple, have the same style--Marple likes just ambushing ʻUlu and Radish even when ʻUlu is clearly asking her to play. She pretends to ignore him and then just whaps him out of nowhere haha. Thank you for your reply!

So cute. ʻUlu Bear loves to play and Radish loves to wrestle. They are a match made in heaven! Thank you for your reply!

Really?? That is really cute, haha! ʻUlu always "loses" when they wrestle (he never "wins" against Marple either, but he always instigates wrestling) and I was starting to wonder if it was getting him down, but I'm glad to hear that he's still game even when he can't seem to get the upper paw! I...

Our third cat, ʻUlu, is our most vocal cat. He wails wherever he goes like he's announcing his arrival and it's always fun to try to figure out what he wants when he comes up to you and taps you and wails. (Usually it's food or pets.) He is also very chatty with our other two cats, who aren't...

Oh excellent! I ended up buying some spacers from Home Depot and I was going to give attaching them a go when I had some time...but your method also sounds like a good possibility!

Hmm I forgot that the video is only recording one type of his whines. He does make another kind that sounds more like a monkey hooting softly. Either way, neither of them sound like a standard meow!

We've been scratching our heads about this since we started letting ʻUlu out of his bedroom. He'll wander around making whining "ooo-OOOO, oo-OOOO" sounds, like a cross between a guinea pig and a monkey. He seems to make it pretty much any time he is on the move, whether it is exploring or...

Here comes the wahhmbulance! Did someone dial whine one one??

I think Radish looks a lot like the cat actors who played Church the cat in Pet Semetary! Leo, one of the cat actors: From Pet Sematary's animal handlers answer our questions about casting, training—and, yes, bathing—cats And Radish: Luckily Radish is not undead....I think.

Hmm! What litter?

The mysterious hardware store...of course! Thank you!!

Respectfully, I am looking at this DIY box as a side project that can be improved upon to fit my needs as well as our cats' and was simply wondering if fellow cat owners had any insight or suggestions. All things can be improved upon, which I hope you can agree with!

Oh sorry! Here's the YouTube tutorial: This is when I had just finished the box: (The one on the lower right is the Breeze box we'd been using--I have a large litter pan under it and it's lofted pretty high, but it's a bit more expensive than the Sterilite DIY and I wanted to try something...

So I made a sifting litterbox out of two 32 quart Sterilite containers after watching a YouTube tutorial. It's so much cheaper than buying a commercial sifting litterbox and best of all, all three cats love it! ...in fact, they love it so much that there isn't enough space to hold all of the...

The tips I got were to start them early and play with their paws a lot when they're young so that they get used to having their feet touched. You can link this to positive reinforcement by giving them a treat when they let you touch their paws or after a cut (one paw or even one per toe!). With...

Kitties are so slippery, aren't they! Radish got into ʻUlu's room several times before we were ready to give them unfettered access, too, when I wasn't paying attention. While this is a negative experience, I think it's still too early to know what it will mean for their long-term...

No Bengal experience, but seconding the effectiveness of clicker training. Might be worth a shot!

This is so cute! I'm not an expert, but it sounds to me that Homer just has a strong sense of personal space whereas Kelly does not. Marple is similar--she tolerates the two boys and will smell noses and such, but does not want to touch them or them to touch her. If you really want to rule out...

I was there not too long ago. We did gate intros and everything but overall it took two months for us to feel comfortable with letting our newest third cat roam freely outside of his bedroom. Part of that was because I wanted to be sure that his hormones weren't causing a negative reaction (he...
