    Kitten Aggression

    Well thank you! I know he definitely hasn't been taught to play rough, or to play with hands, that's a definite no-no. He actually loves to carry things in his mouth which is absolutely adorable, so we play by me throwing things and him playing with them, picking them up, and then not bringing...

    Kitten Aggression

    Howdy guys! So my kitten Cooper is almost a year old, he's probably about 10 months at the moment. I wanted to get your opinion on behavior since it's been so long since I've been around or raised a kitten. So when he's in his room (yes, he has his own bedroom with a queen bed, litterbox...

    New Kitten, Grief, and Wanting Advice

    For me personally, I definitely need the stress relief that my previous baby brought me. I found that whenever I had a bad day or was stressed about anything at all, I could find him and he would calm me down. Work is very hectic and stressful, so when I'm home I like the quiet and peace, so...

    New Kitten, Grief, and Wanting Advice

    Oh wow, so you definitely went through a similar situation. Sorry for your loss. So I've had him for about 5, going on 6 months now. He's around 8 months old. I feel like the good home/bad home thing goes both ways - he could end up in a bad home or he could go somewhere where he is loved just...

    New Kitten, Grief, and Wanting Advice

    So I have an issue I would love some advice on if you guys don't mind. I'm currently struggling with what the right thing to do is and and if there even is a "right" thing, maybe it all just comes down to preference and how you're feeling. *Also if this is the wrong thread please let me know...

    Paw Drinking

    So I bought him a huge dog bowl for this reason - I noticed he wasn't drinking the water in his room (out of a regular sized cat bowl) but he was drinking the dog's water out of her huge bowl. So no problem with whisker touching! I could change his water more out of his dog bowl upstairs and try...

    Paw Drinking

    Howdy guys! So I adopted my kitten, Cooper, about 4-5 months ago and JUST noticed that he doesn't drink water like normal cats... he dips his paw into the bowl and then licks the water off. I've seen him do this before, but the more that I think about it, I've never seen him drink water...

    Peeing on the Bed?

    Just an update - so after covering the bed with enzymatic cleaner he's still peed on the bed twice, BUT that was after I added his sheets and comforter back. So I'm guessing I need the clean his sheets more thoroughly or he's mistaking the sheets for 'litter', because with no sheets on the bed...

    Awesome to know! Thanks! All I know so far about raw food for kittens is you feed them based on their expected weight, not how much they weigh now. Other than that I'm unsure about kitten raw food, gotta do some more looking.

    Where do you get your liver, gizzards, and hearts from? I've just checked the larger grocery stores so far and haven't found any who sell them, I seem to remember them seeing them though... Haven't had a chance to check the smaller places just yet.

    General Cat Care

    That's amazing! I'll start doing that, seems easy enough AND natural, which I love. I'm looking into raw food right now - I don't have a blender or a grinder at the moment though and can't afford one (this year has been tight), so I'm looking into no-bone options but from what I've read so far...

    General Cat Care

    Oh absolutely! Yeah I've been using that exact same brand and flavor of toothpaste and he absolutely LOVES it, so I'm thinking it would be super easy to get him into brushing. Absolute side note - but does anyone have any cool tricks that they've taught their cat? I'm wanting to teach him so...

    General Cat Care

    So just adopted a 6 month old kitten and was looking for advice and tips on health/nutrition, supplements, things to start early. I’ve started him on toothpaste, thankfully he loves it and licks it off my finger – do you guys also actually brush their teeth or do you think him licking it is...

    cat doesn’t clean bum

    So I'm not the only one! Phew! My 6 month old kitten never cleans his butt and I was beginning to worry. Actually just the other day he had a little bit of diarrhea, when he tried to cover it with litter in the litterbox he stepped in it and got it all over his back feet, then proceeded to walk...

    Peeing on the Bed?

    Yes! So his room is upstairs and he has his own full bed. He's peed on it 3x now, 2x about a week ago and I washed all the sheets but forgot to spray the mattress, this third time was last night. I'm guessing he's just marking his territory? Then again is peeing on the bed still considered...

    Peeing on the Bed?

    So I just adopted my kitten, Cooper, about a month ago. I've noticed he's been peeing on his bed on/off - any suggestions or insight into why he's doing this? Coop's room did belong to my previous cat, who was very sick before he died and did have bouts of diarrhea and wasn't cleaning himself...
