    Our sweet beloved Tikka

    Very eloquently put Di and Bob! ♡♡♡ I know your pain....and i feel we all know your pain. I lost a very special cat, less than 2 years old to a rare cancer, last September. He was a substantial loss to us and his littermate brother. I'm still grieving and have yet to honor him here. However...

    Air Purifiers and Litter Dust

    I made the switch to kiln dried wood pellets and a litter system. I know this may not be everyones cup of tea but it solved the dust problem. I was able to transition a lifetime clumping using 14 year young cat over to it at the time i tried this system for myself. He accepted it with some...

    Resident cat stalking and attacking new kitten

    I adopted a kitten to a 2 yr old cat that lost his littermate brother. I've never seen two cats that were more bonded. The above video i used for the process. What i also incorporated was a cat tent i had for years into the mix. I wanted them exposed to one another all day once they were good...

    Shelter cat is broken and super depressed

    A friend of mine adopted a cat that no one wanted. It stayed in it's open carrier for weeks... only leaving it to eat and use the litter. She kept the cat in a spare room as she had both other cats and dogs. Every single day, multiple times a day she'd go in and visit the cat. She talked...

    What do you think about my transitioning strategy?

    That is awesome!!! I've recently become VERY interested in making my own cat food but have no idea where to start. I'm fearful of throwing off any levels and the more i read, the more confused i get. ;) Can you make different size batches to see what a cat likes? I have 2 kitties (one is 6...

    Probiotic Questions

    That makes total sense not to stop with the probiotics for him. I'd be doing the same thing. I'm still going to try them for myself as I'm also in search of something that works for me. I've tried a handful but haven't found the right one yet. Thank you again. :)

    What do you think about my transitioning strategy?

    Did your strategy work? Is your kitty eating soft food? Mine went off soft when he lost his sibling. I'm not knowledgeable enough to make my own cat food for him so i went on a hunt online on how to break the dry food only habit. After two months of no soft food, he's finally eating it again. I...

    Probiotic Questions

    Thank you sooo much for sharing what you use and how much!! I actually have a tiny stirrer like that. Is your kitty still on this probiotic? If you take him off do his stools get loose again? I was thinking of seeing how he does without them as he's been on them a couple of weeks with nice...

    Probiotic Questions

    Thank you and good point. I just wanted to get the best probiotic i can for him and the label does say it's for cats as well. Thanks for sharing what you use as well, I'll add that to my arsenal. :) I'll give him another couple of weeks before seeing how he does without them. They say all good...

    Newbie here....hello!!

    Hello everyone!!! I've had cats my entire life and being a little over a half century old, I learn something new about them the older I get. I lived on a farm yrs ago and saved nearly 50 cats that got dumped (literally) onto my property. They all deserved a 2nd chance at happiness and health and...
