    Boogie plays aggressively

    Hello Fellow Feline Fanciers: I have 2 cats Purry (3 1/2 yo female - 6 lbs) and Boogie (1 yo male - 10 lbs). They are both spayed and neutered. Boogie is larger and uses his size and speed to chase Purry and cause her to growl and sometimes cry out when he jumps on her and bites her. This...

    Purry has learned to use the cat door!

    Hi Everyone: I just want to brag a little. Purry is 3 1/2 years, female, spayed. She lives with her 1 year old brother Boogie (Maine Coon Cross). Purry is 6 lbs, Boogie is 12 lbs. We had a catio installed in May. Boogie started using it almost immediately (he is an indoor kitty). Purry...

    6 Month Old New Kitty Boogie Plays Hard with 2 1/2 yo Purry

    Hi ArtNJ: Really appreciate the post. The smaller cat has a mild degree of stress. She is still using the box and not hiding all day, and not re-directing aggression. She is more desperate to go outside and looks for every opportunity to run out the door! I will not allow this. (I walk...

    6 Month Old New Kitty Boogie Plays Hard with 2 1/2 yo Purry

    Today I’m at my wit’s end. Boogie (6 mo) clawed Purry’s eyelid when they were playing. A trip to the vet and a $250 bill. I have to keep them in separate rooms. This is not tenable for them or for me. Passing from room to room is difficult with a cat wanting in/out at all times. Boogie is...

    6 Month Old New Kitty Boogie Plays Hard with 2 1/2 yo Purry

    Hi. Thanks for the great info! I know you have a lot of experience and I appreciate it. I’m going to separate them in the same room. I was just giving Purry time in the room. Also I’m going to try to play Boogie out — by playing with him lots. I have hope.

    6 Month Old New Kitty Boogie Plays Hard with 2 1/2 yo Purry

    Hi All: I am wondering if I could get some advice from you. My 2 1/2 yo kitty is a rescue from a golf course. I walk her daily on a harness and leash, but she always wants to be outside, something I’m not going to let her do on her own. We have had her 8 months. A month ago I adopted Boogie...

    4 Month Old Kitten Boogie

    Hi All: Just adopted Boogie and am trying to find food he likes. The foster mom was feeding him Blue Buffalo Healthy Gourmet Kitten Chicken (wet); and Blue Buffalo Kitten Chicken (dry). Boogie does not really like the wet food and just nibbles it, leaves most of it. He is lukewarm on the dry...

    Choosing a New Kitten

    The kitten’s background is sketchy. I’m thinking he was from off the street, since he was so skinny. I liked the post about making the wire closet racks into a temporary gate. I’ll see how it goes and may try that. Thanks for your advice.

    Choosing a New Kitten

    Hello all: I have the pleasure of being very close to adopting a 6 1/2 mo old male kitten. I have Purry a 2 1/2 yo spayed female at home. I’m hoping the new kitten will be a playmate for Purry who has much energy and playfulness. He is from an animal rescue organization and is in foster care...

    Purry is chewing on everything

    Hi: Purry, my 2 yo dsh (spayed) is chewing on everything. She chews on computer cords. This week she chewed and swallowed part of the cat dancer toy, before I was quick enough to grab it from her mouth. She chews on the chain link fence (trying to send us a signal she wants out). She is an...

    Purry is vomiting

    Thanks my hooman cat friends. We first thought she was eating grass, as she goes outside only on a leash. We stopped her from eating grass (she cat-swears at us when we say “no grass!”). In the original vet visit we told the vet she vomited after eating grass. Now we know it’s not the grass...

    Purry is vomiting

    Hi Everyone: I adopted a 2 yo spayed female that I found on the local golf course. Purry has been with us 2 months. She is a beautiful, happy kitty. I was feeding her a variety of Fancy Feast pate flavours. Recently she has been vomiting. She vomited 6 times since Sept 17. I took her to...

    Golf Course Kitty is a stray?

    Yes she will be an indoor kitty fur-ever more….and she does not like it. Too bad, sorry Purry. I don’t know if she has been spayed, I doubt it, since she has no chip or tattoo. It is possible she could be pregnant now. Hope not. The vet will tell me when she sees her in August.. Thanks for...

    Golf Course Kitty is a stray?

    Yes, I have done what I can to find her owners. She has a vet appointment in August (soonest they could see her). I never thought that vets would not want to deal with ferals. Of course they are human and have their reasons. Hard as it may be for me to understand why they wouldn’t want to...

    Golf Course Kitty is a stray?

    And here is her beautiful self….Purry Yes; pictures and vet records. However, as you say without a chip or tattoo it is unlikely anyone is coming for her. How long do I have to wait to officially call her mine? She has a vet appointment with my vet for August. Is there a law? I am in...
