    Do glow in the dark collars work? I’m thinking of buying my mom’s indoor/outdoor cat one so he shows up better. He currently has reflective collars, I bought him a multipack.

    Yesterday we had a 5.1 earthquake and several aftershocks. He freaked out so bad and ran away. Hours later I finally got him back. It is the next morning and he is still hiding, big dilated eyes, slinking around. I at least got him to eat his lickable treat this morning. He may have munched on...

    Cheap outdoor cat house ideas?

    So 1 not my cat! But my mom’s senior reformed feral has been pushed out of the house by her obnoxious high prey drive cocker spaniel/Maltese dogs. They chase him and corner him. He used to outside to pee/hang out a few hours but slept inside most of the day. So now he won’t come in the house...

    Have greenies dental treats helped your cat?

    So last month I bought greenie dental treats but the amount for my 15.5 pound cat seems huge (14 per day!) He isn’t fat but may have a bit of a dad bod. I don’t want to commit to greenies unless they work. So have they improved the dental health of your cat?

    Cat gently nipping my hand while I’m on my tablet of phone

    Jackie (4 years old, neutered) recently started doing this. He is on my lap/stomach while I’m in the lazy boy. I’m texting or reading on my tablet or phone (while sometimes I am occasionally petting him) & then he very gently nips my hand. It doesn’t hurt at all. It seems to be an asking for...

    Litter box for long cat?

    Can anyone recommend a talll sided litter box for my 19 inch long cat? (19 inches do not include his tail.) Currently he has a “large” litter box and a storage tub but I think he would prefer an entrance or a staircase. He is a litter kicker so it needs tall sides or a lid. Ideally his litter...

    Can someone recommend a good baby proof cabinet lock?

    So I took away Jackie’s dry food except for a little tiny daily bit. I have been storing his dry food in the cabinet. He has learned a new trick of opening the cabinet and sticking his head in to steal some dry food. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’m kinda impressed and annoyed. Anyhow the cabinet doesn’t have...

    Can someone recommend a cat broth good for urinary health?

    My boy has never drank enough water, I was thinking a broth might help his daily intake of water. Does anyone have any idea of brand that is low in ash or ash free? He just was diagnosed with bladder crystals.

    My cat needs to switch to mostly dry or all dry

    My cat is used to 4/5’s of his diet being wet. If he pigs out on dry food, he gets the runs. He has bladder crystals and needs the dry food (he is way to picky to get him on the healthy wet food.) Any idea how I transition him to dry food from 4 meals of 1.5 oz a day?

    Can you recommend a CBD oil for a stressed out cat?

    Jackie has a UTI probably from stress (I’m waiting for the lab results.) The vet thinks it is probably stress and honestly my cat is an easily stressed cat. So if someone is giving their cat CBD and it works, I would love to hear what brand they use. I think CBD oil would be better than...
