    Live Crickets For Cat?

    Indoor Cat Wants Out!

    I have a 1.5 year old neutered male cat that lives indoors 99% of the time. I "walk" him on a harness for around 15 minutes every night and allow him access to the courtyard when we are home on weekends.

    Advice For Training Cat To Use Cat Door?

    Does anyone have any advice for training a cat that has the attention span of a goldfish to use a cat door? Pebble is still young (almost 1) but I'm not having much luck. We installed the cat door a week ago and I've been leaving it taped open. He's fine going through it when it's open but I'm...

    Kitten won't eat chicken necks

    How can I get my almost 6 month old kitten to eat chicken necks? I'd really like to give them to him a couple of times a week to help clean his teeth, but whenever I put one in his bowl he just licks it. Any advice?

    Feeling anxious/guilty about leaving kitten alone!

    Hi all, I'm new here and have a 12.5 week old kitten and one of the issues I'm facing is that he has to spend 10 hours a day alone whilst me and my partner are at work. On top of this my partner does not want him sleeping with us at night. Essentially he's alone 10 hours a day and then shut out...
