    Cat stress over-grooming

    A little backstory might be helpful. I have two cats one is a boy who is 5 years old and one is a girl who is 4 years old. The boy does not like almost anyone except for my wife and I. The girl likes everyone. He is definitely the alpha cat. My wife and I have a son who will be 2 years old next...

    My 2 cats play and 1 gets too rough

    I have 2 cats. The girl is 3 and the boy is 4. They are very chill cats. The boy is very affectionate with me, but stays away from many others especially my and my wife’s 16 month old boy. The girl loves people and likes to play more, but isn’t a huge player. I don’t know if all of that was...

    Automatic litter box recommendations

    I have been thinking about buying an automatic litter box for my 2 cats who are an American Short Hair and other Russian Blue Mix. The problem is I need one that is battery powered because the litter box is nowhere near an outlet. I read battery powered ones exist, but I haven’t found any. Any...

    Not a significant problem…just question

    One of my 2 cats likes to roll around on counters. I don’t mind it except she frequently gets very close to the edge and there has been 1 or 2 times where she has kind of plopped off and landed more on her belly than feet. Since seeing that I keep an eye on her and make sure she doesn’t fall off...

    Wife is pregnant cat meows in the morning

    One of my 2 cats meows a lot outside my wife and my bedroom door every morning and occasionally at night. Before my wife was pregnant if it was up to me I would just let her in and let her sleep with us, but my wife has never wanted her on the bed especially when we are sleeping. Now my wife is...

    Cat licking furniture

    Hi! I have noticed for awhile but haven’t thought much about one of my cats periodically licking furniture. He “usually” licks a chair he likes to sit in. It’s not common, but he does do it. He “usually” does it at the same time he cleans himself. I have read about pica. I have a 2nd cat and he...

    Limiting meal time for weight loss

    I have 2 cats and one is fat. The vet said his blood work looks good, but prescribed him low calorie food. He’s lost some weight. It’s a little harder managing his weight since getting another cat because I give them their own bowls, but they eat out of each other’s. I read about limiting meals...

    Cat grooms other cat

    I’m just curious what people think about this. I don’t see any reason to worry about anything and this is probably a good thing. My wife and I have 2 cats. One is a 2 year-old boy and the other is a 1 year-old girl. They aren’t biologically related at all. We had the boy for over a year before...
