    Should I Adopt A Second Cat

    Bruce is now with us for more that a year and he will be 2yo in June. He is still a bundle of energy and demands constant attention for both me and my hubby when we are home. He goes into mischief mode if he doesn't get it too. The thing is we both work full time and that makes Bruce spend lots...

    Bruce Still Doesn't Sleep Through The Night

    I feel like I have a baby... Bruce still wakes us up at least once per night. At random times, sometimes at 2, or at 4 or 5 am. And he pounces on our legs. We will then shoo him out of the bedroom and close the door. He will go play by himself until it's time for his feeding around 6am. Then...

    Bird Feeders

    My post about window shelves, led me to bird feeders. I had one in my window for about two months and not one single bird came to eat on it. I had the right kind of feed, for wild birds, for my area, but I don't know if they did not find it, or if my appartment is too high up (I live on a 5th...

    How Do You Play With Your Cat?

    As Bruce is killing us slowly with lack of sleep, I need to find new aways to keep this boy tired. So, how do you play with your cats? Do you chase them around? Run around a very small appartment with a feather thingy for him to chase? Do you do it everyday at the same time? or as you see the...

    6 Months On, Still No Sleep.

    Well Bruce is now over 1yo and we still can't sleep an entire night through. Is like having a kid! He will turn in with us, sleep until 2am, or 4am, then wakes up and pounce on our legs. One of the humans will get up and lead him out of the room, and out he will go. He will then entertain...

    Do We Make Our Cats Crazy?!

    I am worried changing Bruce's routine with the automatic feeder made him not want to eat his food. That got me thinking... Do we make them crazy and picky with our constant worrying?! I have friends who have healthy, strong cats they don't worry about constantly. They never complain of their...

    I Think I Broke My Perfect Feeding Cat :(

    As I mentioned here last week I brought an automatic feeder for Bruce, in order to try to sleep in the mornings, without him waking us to give him his wet food. Well, the first day went ok, and he ate from the new feeder without a problem. Then Saturday he didn't touch is early evening meal...

    My Very Demanding Cat

    Hi all! Long time no post! :) I'm trying to reach a conclusion if we spoiled Bruce rotten or if is just in his nature to be a very demanding cat. Bruce is now 11 months old and driving us crazy half the time. I though my last cat was a hard case! Well, I was wrong! At least Zoya let me sleep...

    It's been three months and we're still having the same problems with Bruce. His high energy level, with our work schedulle results in him sleeping very short nights and waking us up at 5 each morning.  We tried several diferent tatics and nothing works. I'm taking him to the vet on Saturday...

    Do your cats react to your anxiety?

    I'm just curious, as I don't remember Zoya's behavior changing with my moods.  Bruce was kind of skidish yesterday, refusing to being held and not coming for pets. He would play and was in intense mode even. He still followed me everywhere but was kind of electric. As there have been some...

    Teenager not eating much

    Hi all! Bruce has been with us for more than two months now and the only thing we haven't figured out is the sleeping thing, but we're handling it. Overall I think we got the perfect cat!  He is not a big boy, and is not very food driven. His weight ranges from 3.300 to 3.600, from the 3 or 4...

    We had to put Bruce out of the bedroom tonight!

    The Bruce adventures continue and for the third consecutive night Mr. Bruce woke my husband up at 5ish. He is kind of cute. He brings his favourite mouse and puts it next to my husband and gently wakes him up with his paw.  He's a master on playing fetch, since he learnt it last week. My...

    Bruce, the bored mischievous kitten

    Hi all, Here I am again reporting on my very mischievous  kitten. Yesterday he jumped from our dresser to the drappery and brought everything down with him. Didn't get hurt by pure luck. He is now fascinated with the drappery. The living room is good for climbing, the bedroom ones are good for...
