    kitten still trying to nurse.

    Hi guys, I was hoping someone could give me some advise. One of my foster kittens is still trying to nurse. This is really cute, but waking up by having a kitten nibbling my chin or nose isn't the best way to start the day. On top of this I'm worried that if I can't break him of the habit...

    Foster Kittens - what pictures?

    I don't know how many of you, if any, remember me, but I used to come on here alot. I had some not so great things happen and one of them was my cat got out and ran away. This was when I just moved back home (college is cheaper). I haven't given up hope yet, even though its been three weeks...

    shots- lasting effects?

    Hi guys I'm a bit worried, but as you all know, I'm a worry wart sometimes. I just took in spirit to get her shots yesterday and since then she has been sleeping or sleepy. At first this didn't seem to odd, but everytime I go to pet her, she cries out when I pet her left shoulder (I'm thinking...

    Just another "Awww" moment

    Cats can be so full of trouble that I often get asked by mine mean so much to me. When I'm asked this, I tell them that it's the "Awww moments" as well as a few other things..... Well Last night Spirit gave me another one of these. I was laying in bed with my arms around my stuffed cat (yes I...

    Post-Spray, what should I be looking for?

    I'm sure some of you have noticed I'm a bit of a worry wart when it comes to my cats. This is the first female I've had that was sprayed (that wasn't already fixed) since I was 4 and after reading the list of things to look for, well, I'm alittle worried not everything is as it should be. The...

    Heat coming sooner and sooner?

    Well today we finally got spirit sprayed (and chipped of course). She is around 5 months old. Now when I got her from the shelter, both the shelter and the vet I was seeing at the time told me that I should wait till she was 6 months old, but some places would do it at 5 and a half. Heh well...

    The usual deterrents just aren't working...

    I think most of you know this already, but just to give alittle background. Spirit was found at 7 weeks old (I'm told by the shelter) on the side of the road. This means that she didn't have the time with the mother to learn what means no (I think). When I first got her, it didn't seem to be a...

    Oh that Theif!

    Spirit is just as her namesake says, full of spirit. When I was staying at my uncles I would wake up to find my watch, or a necklace gone, only to find it a day or two later under a bed, or couch. I swear we should have called her crow . Well this morning I woke up to find my room mate asking...

    Spirit

    Before I left I wrote about my new kitten Spirit. She's now 5 months old and such a troublemaker! But its hard to stay mad when she curls up on your shoulder and purrs. These aren't the best pictures, but they sure are better then I had before! I love her coloring myself...

    Finally back

    Well I'm finally home after being gone for 3 months helping the family up in WA with a death. Spirit can't believe she has a whole room to run in! I'm sorry I never updated the pictures I said I would (I'm doing that next!) but I was a bit busy and didn't have much time to play on the...

To me, the most important part of a cat is the bond that is shared, to me, my cat is my best friend. That said, I am going to do my best to keep this new cat inside...(all...

    a question

    to say I'm still hurting is a understatement. I just got to the point where everything doesn't make me break down. But I have two people offer to give me kittens. I turned them down for a couple of reasons, I always felt its good to find your own cat, and well, its to soon. That said, in about...

    about a month until my trip

    Is there anything I should be working on to make things easier on Mai Sai and the room mate before I go? I would like to be able to move his food and little box out of our rooms so my room mate doesn't have to come in here to clean it. (I'll be gone for about 2-3 weeks). But this isn't...
