Hi, I haven't posted here in awhile, but I am in need of some advice from the wise posters here. My cat, Penelope, has had a warm head and ears since early August. She was acting a little "off" as well - not finishing her dinner in 5 minutes (she can be piggy! lol). But she was finishing her...

Aww Daniel. I know how you feel. And my eldest is much younger. But it IS best to look into this now, as others are saying. I have something in my will as well (like Rosie) in case I leave before them. But I also have already decided on cremation should the day come. For me, the hardest...

My Penelope does this too. I always say to her, "am I THAT dirty?"

Is it possible she is either: 1. Hungry 2. Bored and wanting attention? I find that if my cats are not adequately doted upon the night before, there will be pre-alarm clock issues. Especially with my youngest. Also, if a cat is hungry, they will do just about anything to see that their...

TheZookeper -- I will continue to keep you and your family in my thoughts. I'm so glad you are safe. Thanks to all who have posted some links for donation sites.

A family with a gorgeous cat was interviewed yesterday. The refugee place at the stadium apparently is well-equipped for cats and dogs. They were very impressed with the fact they didn't need to bring anything to the spot for their pet, although of course they did. I'd like to donate though if...

Congratulations!!!!! The job sounds amazing, please keep us posted on how you like it!

Sending vibes for all of those in San Diego in our community. I have family there and I'm so worried. Please stay safe.

she's not eating like usual - but is eating. I just brought out a bowl and more water to the porch where we are all sitting and she had a few nibbles. She's sleeping now. I wonder if the dosage is just too high for her. She had been on Clavamox before several years ago and nothing had happened...

I think we may do that - we're getting out the phone book now. She is drinking water again right now, and she has been going to the bathroom (no. 2) without any problems. Its been entirely normal.

What complications led to your cats death? Mine is acting really really weird now that she is on the UTI medicine and appears to be sicker (as I posted in a new thread) I am so sorry about the loss of your baby!

I determined from reading many threads here last week that Penelope has a UTI. She was taken to the vet, it was confirmed, and she was prescribed Clavamox 125mg twice daily. Note - no urine sample was able to be obtained so diagnosis purely on symptoms. While her UTI symptoms have improved...

Oh my are they being bad Penelope has ripped curtains in her day LOL. When we first moved to the new home a few months ago, they were both climbing the screens (well more Maverick) and he eventually ripped one. Not sure what gets into them sometimes. I wonder if there is a way to get them to...

Milo is the cutest!! I wish I could scoop him up and give him some scritches!! I shall await more pics of this little darling.

Now I am all caught up on the new member of Sophie and Rosie's family! He is adorable!! I hope in time they all become good friends, I suspect those little ladies are just seeing if they can fuss their way into having Jack go bye byes LOL

Ooh I just saw this thread, and realized Sophie and Rosie have a new friend!! (*hasn't been around as much obviously LOL*) He's so cute!! And so tiny compared to them!! More pics more pics!!

My one cat hates a dirty litterbox and poops outside of it on occasion to remind us of this. So we now have two, one on each floor. Maybe try adding another box as was suggested above, but also try keeping the boxes clean daily and see if that is the problem? Another issue to consider is the...

I bought the feliaway plugins in lieu of a spray. I never had the spraying problems with a cat though, I bought it due to anxiety issues with moving, and they seemed to adjust fine to the new home. Now I don't know if the Feliaway worked or they are just not stressed cats, but maybe if you try...

I agree with Bonnie. My Penelope acted "off" after the spaying for a bit. And she also was sickly around the time of that surgery and I recall with medication she was even more "off." Extra snuggles and affection and hopefully she will be her old self soon.

She sounds very smart, and I agree with the post above, I think she may sense another human is coming and is concerned!! Give her lots of love and hopefully she will get the message, and become a little more quiet for you! LOL - as I type this mine is howling to be let out on the screened in...
