So I know this may upset some people, but I'm trying to do my best with the situation, so please be kind. I have a cat that is obsessed with being on my lap. I've owned him since 1.5 months old, and he is 9 now. I can't take it anymore. Between struggling with health issues, stress, and very...
Hello! We had a death in the family, and their pet birds need a home. I have considered taking these parakeets in. I have experience with birds, but not with cats and birds. I have two cats. They are 7 and 8 years old. Would I be able to have parakeets with these cats? I obviously wouldn't let...
Hello,
I have a 3 year old who won't stop breaking everything. I don't have many decorations out because of this, but he is still finding things to knock over. He knocks over cups with and without lids, he knocks over candles, pans, etc. Anything he can, he will. He's breaking everything! There...
I haven't put a Christmas tree up for 4 years because of my cat. My first two did ok, but I'm not convinced this new one will. He will probably eat it. I also now have a flocked tree. The one with snow. It's non toxic, but if they eat too much it can clog their intestines because it's saw dust...
My cat is a little too dependent on me. I can not sit down without him being on me. It's impossible to get him to leave me alone. No matter how many times I set him down, he comes back immediately. He uses all of his strength to stay on me. When he sees me he cries. I have other cats. They do...
I love house plants, but very few do my cats ignore. They either eat them, or they chew on them, killing the leaves. Do you know of any houseplants that my cats will just leave alone? Thank you!
I'm ready to pull my hair out. I have three cats. I feed them twice a day. They all eat in separate places so I know they eat. In the past, my vet said they were fed enough, and they all have very healthy weights. When I go to feed them, they lose their minds! They trip me, I almost step on...
For years our cats have just sat next to us and 'begged'. However, recently they have become EXTREMELY brave. They will just walk right up to your plate and steal food quickly. No matter how many times I push them away they try to do it again! lol. I have three cats and two of them started to...
I have a two year old who has lived with us since he was two months old. He gets along with the other cats in the house. Twice this month he has looked at one of the other cats we have and acts like he doesn't recognize him. He watches terrified from the other side of room. His tail puffs up...
I think my 1 year old cat is bored. Do you guys think these toys would help? I would rotate them. Have you guys had good luck with stuff like this, or do they get bored with them fast?
My cats like to sleep on our spare bed. I'm trying to figure out what type of blanket would be the best. I have some fuzzy ones, but they like to knead them and the hair sticks to them bad. Do you think a quilt would be good? Or do you know of any other good options?
My 1 year old male cat constantly knocks our cups over. I have stopped him and told him no, but he seems to be getting worse. I'm constantly cleaning water up. Sometimes he acts like he is trying to see under the cup. There isn't anything there, and the cups are not clear. Any tips? He's driving...
One of my cats is CRAZY about veggies! He loves spinach (his favorite), kale, romaine, brussel sprout leaves, carrots, and broccoli. My other two cats will NOT eat them, lol. Do you have a cat that likes vegetables? Here is a picture of him. His name is Rudy. He used to love opening these veggie...
My 5 year old female cat is getting spots on her iris. The black line around the iris has a big spot under it making it look thicker. Is this normal? The picture makes it look reddish, but it's all more brown including the area around the outside. They are similar colors in the light. I don't...
My 10 month old kitten just started crying at the door when we go to sleep. Why is he doing this? My other male cat used to do this all the time. I assumed it was because he was sad because he never leaves my side during the day. However, my kitten is pretty independent. What is causing this?
There was a litter of kittens near my mom's house. I took one of the kittens at 2 months of age. He is now 10 months old. He is a good pet cat. My mom has considered taking in another one of the kittens. She has been feeding them all these months. When they see her coming they come running and...
My kitten loves to pick on my dog! My dog LOVES it. My other cats want nothing to do with his play, but the dog would take it all day. The kitten gets pretty rough too, and my dog is still so gentle with him. The kitten is 8 months now, and my dog is a 6 year old lab/beagle. I love that they...
My 7.5 month old male kitten is very healthy, neutured, and eats a little under a 1/2 cup of Iams kitten food a day. He weighs only 5.7lbs. Does this just mean that he is a small cat and always will be? I have had him for 5.5 months. He has always been under the average. What size can I expect...
I am looking at buying a new cat tree. I want something that will last for a while. What material holds up the best? Carpet, fabric, etc....... Or do you have any specific suggestions of some high quality cat trees you like? I live in the US. Thank you!
Our house is pretty 'cat proof'. It's very uncluttered and there are very few decorations that the cats can reach. My kitten however has broken a plate, a picture frame, and almost one other item just today. I don't think I can 'cat proof' my house any further! How do I keep him off things such...
