I bought cat treat at Trader Joe's today. It's called "BENCH & FIELD Holistic Natural Feline Treats". I have opened it to see how it smells like and found some salt crystals in there. Sure enough salt was part of ingredient!! Does cat need salt in their diet? Shall I stop feeding them...

We are having very unusually hot weather in Seattle area. We are to hit 100 degrees tomorrow. One thing I have been noticing is that our kitties are tuning down wet food. Leo loves wet, and he sometimes donâ€8482t touch dry. But today, he sniffed and walked away from it. Does this happen to...

My kitties love DaBird and we have 2 of them. I have noticed sometimes little fiberglass sliver from the rod pokes out and hurts my fingers. Do any of you experience this? What is the good solution to prevent this from happening? I was thinking about putting the rod in to small clear tube or...

I have adopted indoor cat from shelter not to long ago. I have 3 shed cats in my yard who come to eat at our patio. Whenever my indoor cat sees them, he meows and wanting to join in and play with them. Once he took off by following one of outdoor kitties. Outdoor kitties are receptive of him...

Do you let future family visit your kitten before they are placed permanently? If family is looking for particular personality of cat, but you didn't see that trait in current litter, what would you do? Let family wait until next time? How would you know each kitten's personality? How soon...

My friend is thinking about adopting a cat who only eats wet food. Is it possible to make him eat dry again? Reason is for the convenience. She wants to feed both wet and dry. When she is out for a day or two, she can leave dry food out for her cat. I guess this cat used to eat dry food. But...

How do you manage raccoon in feral colony? Because I am on vacation until tomorrow, dry food is out in continuous feeder. I logged on to see my cat cam around 7:30pm and raccoon was there checking out cat's feeding area for good 20 min. It looked like he was trying to open cat feeder with his...

Long story short.... I finally let my 4 feral go back in to my back yard. They have been confined in one of the rooms in my house since mid September. My husband is thrilled to have them out finally. Weather is becoming nicer here and I could see the scent of Spring making them anxious. I...

I bought Arm & Hummer High performance litter the other day. (http://www.armhammerpets.com/performance.aspxand ) And I almost threw up by the strong scent of this product. They must have used strong fragrance or something!! It makes me sick to smell this and I would imagine the same for cat...

I love CraigsList! I picked up almost new littermaid for $20!! It came with a lot of extra waste conteiners and parts, too! Oh, and I see Litter Robot for $75 today. Wow. So far, I am not sure if my cats would use it. I will keep it until I am back from my vacation, though. -Kazy

I was playing with my kitties last night and boy kitty successfully ripped smaller feather off "Da Bird". Then, he ate it!!! As soon as I noticed, I tried to get it away from him, but he run to the "safe corner" with it quick and gobbled it fast. So far, he is acting normal and eating normal...

I caught one of my kitties having dingle berry yesterday. Little bit of her poop was stuck on her and she was dragging her butt to get rid of it. My cats are short hair and it doesn't leave mess on their fur, but it does leave mess on the floor!! It doesn't happen often, but when it happens...

We are going away for 5 days at the end of February. We were out for 3 days before and cats were fine. How did everybody manage during holidays? Here is my situation. 4 cats live in my 25 x 25 bedroom. They are family (mom and three 8 months old kittens). I don't worry about food and water...

I visited local humane society's cat shelter last week and notice once thing. Each kitty room had air purifier running. Thus there is no cat litter smell even though at least 3 of them were in the room. Do you use air purifier near cat litter box? Do you think it's worth it? I am seriously...
