I've been using the Breeze litterbox (with another box underneath) and pine pellets for my litter system. I love it for the price and the lack of "litter smell." However, as my cat has grown (got him as a kitten) I'm encountering some issues. He pooped over the side the other day. Today I...
Hello everyone!
I'm fostering two 4 week old (tiny!) kittens for my local SPCA. I'm looking for any suggestions you can give me for teaching them how to use a litter box; they have not used it yet, and I have had them for about 3 days. I have a low, shallow container with the pine pellet litter...
Sometimes my kitten (6 months ish) will bite at my legs, through the covers, when I'm in bed. This happens sometimes when I'm lying in bed on the computer before bed. In those cases, I usually end up trying to get him to stop before remembering it's probably better to redirect to a toy and I...
Does anyone use one of those additives you can put in water to help a cat's teeth? What are your thoughts on this? Is it really safe for them to be ingesting? What kind do you use, and has it been beneficial? Thanks!
My new kitten (about 5-6 months old I think) is pretty mouthy. When playing, being pet, etc even sometimes just walking up to me. It doesn't seem to be aggressive at all; he's actually pretty "gentle" about it most times which makes me think he is showing inhibitiion. I've been trying various...
Does anyone else here struggle with their mental health?
I struggle a lot with pretty bad anxiety and on and off again depression (thankfully that's not as severe as the anxiety). The anxiety has probably been much of my life, through more severe in recent years. The depression has been...
I recently adopted a kitten that I was previously fostering. The shelter uses kiln dried pine pellets for litter so that is what I have been using so far. I bought the Breeze litter box and use the pellets in that so the sawdust from the wet pellets can fall through. t
While there are aspects...
My former foster kitten was neutered and I was finally about to fill out the adoption contract and make him officially mine as of Tuesday! :redheartpump:
A "ferocious" yawn
One of his favorite places to snooze.
I have a foster kitten (approx. 14 weeks old, I think, now) who I will be officially adopting after his neuter tomorrow. :) I was wondering though, do I need to do anything to attempt (emphasis on the attempt, lol) to keep him from doing a lot of running and/or jumping/climbing after? I've read...
I grew up with dogs, not cats, so I never really imagined myself owning one. However, I have always loved all sorts of animals. I started volunteering at my local SPCA last fall, and then got interested in fostering. Since I'm gone all day at work, I knew I couldn't foster any puppies, but...
I'm "foster failing" and keeping a kitten that I've been fostering. His adoption will be official next week after they neuter him. This shelter does have its own vet staff for both shelter animals and its low cost vaccine clinic for the public. I can (and probably will) take him back there for...
