    It's A Beautiful Day! - The Positive Thread 2019

    It's a really nice day today. The cats enjoyed some fresh air this morning. It was in the 60's. And later it will rain and thunder. I love rainy days in the summer. Another good thing... I have a new computer arriving today. I'm very excited. Can't wait to set it up and try my games on it.

    Playing Or Fighting

    Yea, sometimes I get concerned when Jazzy pounces on Nyke. But he keeps coming back like he's enjoying the attention.

    Eating Garbage

    I've had her for about two months now. She just started going through the trash only a few days ago. She was at the vet last week. Everything is Okay. My new container arrives today. So that will help out.

    Playing Or Fighting

    They are really doing well. Every once in a while I see a swat and hear a hiss. They are just setting boundaries. It's usually over food or play time. Or me time. Lol! I'll work on getting some pictures.

    Eating Garbage

    I live in an apartment and when my tall kitchen trash fills up, I empty it and put the bag to the side cause there's no where else until I can go to the dump. So my cat starts tearing open the bag for disposed of food. Today she ate a biscuit. I hope she will be Okay. That stuff can't be...

    Playing Or Fighting

    Thank you for your replies. It's been really helpful. I gave them time together for a couple more days and watched them. They are pretty much relaxed. When Nyke hisses it is definitely cat speak. It's happening less today. They are getting closer and starting to do their own thing. I even...

    Playing Or Fighting

    I am slowly socializing my cats after having them separated for almost two months. Jazzy is the youngest and newest. She seems very playful. Nyke is the resident cat and a few years older. I'm not sure if he's playing or being aggressive. They chase one another equally. Like hide behind...

    My Cat Hisses At The Newcomer

    I've had Jazzy now for just over two weeks. I introduced her slowly with smells first, then sight through a gate and eventually a face to face. My new cat seemed Okay. But she tried to attack him. So I put them up again. A few days later they were in the same space. She jumped the gate...

    Thinking Of Adopting

    Took her to the vet. She didn't have a chip. They examined her and ran tests. Everything came back negative. She's in perfect health. We gave her vaccines and a de-worming. I need to get her fixed. I have that appointment set up for Tuesday. Nyke is calming down some. It's just going to...

    Thinking Of Adopting

    Strangest thing happened. Right after I decided to adopt, I found a cat in a big city nearby. I don't like driving in that city so I called my mom to see if she would drive. She had the oddest request. She wanted to know if I had an extra cat carrier. I said no and asked why? She told me...

    Thinking Of Adopting

    I've been thinking that my cat might like a play mate. I believe I can handle two cats. I found a kitten close by that I might try to adopt. I'm just not sure how well my 5 year old cat will react. He never did well when I tried to bring a dog in to the home. Of course the dog was pretty...

    Escape Artist

    I had Nyke for 3 years as an indoor cat and one day he became very interested in the outdoors. I used to try to walk him on the leash but it never went very well. He seemed happy, he just flopped down a lot. So now he tries to escape any chance he gets. What I've done is set up the bedroom...

    Cat Boundaries - My Affectionate Old Cat Won't Stop Trying To Sit On My Keyboard

    That's my little TV for my PS4 that I hardly play. I figure when I want it I'll work something out. Lol!

    Cat Boundaries - My Affectionate Old Cat Won't Stop Trying To Sit On My Keyboard

    I was actually having the same problem with my cat. I didn't really know what to do. I'm glad I found this post. I tried creating a space for him on my desk next to me. He loves it there. I think it solved the problem. He comes to say hi and get a head rub and then he heads for his new bed.

    My Cat Got Angry

    Yes, I still don't know what to do about the computer/keyboard. Sometimes I try to wait him out and other times I get up. I think I will start getting up every time though.

    My Cat Got Angry

    I've been mindful of his triggers and careful about what I do around him. That seems to be helping. Normally he's a really sweet cat.

    My Cat Got Angry

    I hadn't thought of that. He could need a more thorough exam. The more I think about it the more I want to try to work with him. Thanks for sharing.

    My Cat Got Angry

    Thanks! Those sound like good approaches. I think his aggression is getting worse though. He was in my computer chair like he does from time to time. I talked softly to him and tried to pick him. I said we're going to the sofa and he tried to bite me. He's never done that before. I just...
