My cat Zeke (almost 2 years old) is obsessed with our phone that we keep on the kitchen countertop. He pushes the receiver off the hook when he's trying to get attention or wants food so the phone makes that loud busy signal noise. He "answers" the phone whenever it rings by throwing it off the...

I really need some help with my picky eaters. I have two 1-year old males who currently eat a mix of Wellness Indoor Health Dry and Natural Balance Original Ultra Dry. I also give them a small amount of wet food 2-3 times per day. Toby refuses to eat anything except Fancy Feast Florentine or...

Here are some new pics of my 2 boys, Toby and Zeke Toby is now 1 year/4 months and Zeke is 11 months.

Toby's not a very vocal cat, so he has to come up with creative ways to let me know when his bowl is empty or he wants some canned food. I keep fruit on the counter top (apples, oranges, etc.), so he sits up there and knocks a piece of fruit onto the floor. If that doesn't get my attention...

My 7 month old kitten has been having some diarrhea off an on since we got him a few weeks ago and we're trying to figure out the cause. Canned food seems to bother him so we've been sticking with only dry. He did sneak some of the other cat's wet food a couple times in the last week. He's been...

I adopted a 7 month old kitten (Zeke) a couple weeks ago and kept him apart from my 1 year old cat (Toby) for a week. I did a slow introduction over that time, letting them see each other only through seperate cages, smell each other's scents on towels, going in each other's rooms when the other...

Here are some pictures of my new little guy Zeke. I just got him Saturday through a rescue group. He's about 6 or 7 months old and was found hanging around a restaurant and begging for scraps. He's a very friendly little boy! He's quite thin, but has been eating a lot since he got home. I'm...

I would like to start taking Toby outside on a leash when the weather is good. I bought a harness, but it's the figure-8 kind and I thought I remember someone on here mentioning cats can slip out of that type when they're scared. Does anyone have any suggestions of a harness that the cat can't...

Do you always free feed a kitten until a year old? My kitten is just over 9 months and weighs almost 11 pounds now. He's solid but already has a little pot belly. Should I keep letting him eat as much as he wants? He's currently eating Wellness Kitten Dry and Pro Plan Canned. He eats very...

I had the TV on today and there was a Friskies commericial with a tabby cat running around it in. Toby went right up to the TV and put his front paws on the entertainment center and watched very intently. At one point, he reached out with a paw and touched the TV screen. Our TV isn't even very...

I lost my beloved best friend BJ two months ago today. This is the first Christmas in 19 years that he won't be here. Rest in peace BJ I miss you!

I was experimenting with the film grain feature on my camera and asked Toby to make his scariest face... Here's what I got Okay, he was actually yawing as I took the pic and it went off just before he completely closed his mouth Here is him looking more "normal"

The local shelter that I adopted Toby from had a "Feline Navidad" event last week to promote the cats and kittens since they have so many more cats than dogs currently at the shelter. I'm happy to report 78 cats and kittens found new homes last week! Of course more keep coming in all the time...

Here are a few new pics of Toby. He's 8 1/2 months now. I got him a little over a month ago and he has grown so much since then. He is getting so big! Close up At the water bowl

Right now my 8 month old kitten is eating a mixture of Iams Kitten and Science Diet Kitten. (Both dry) I found a store near me that sells natural, grain free and raw foods but I never heard of any of these brands before and wondered if anyone has any suggestions for a better food than what he's...

I got my kitten from a shelter about a month ago and he came home with fleas. He scratches his neck occasionally and someone in the house got a few flea bites. I don't think they're too bad because I don't feel any scabs on his neck. I ordered Frontline Plus today. Should I give him a bath...

My 8 month old has been knawing at the corners of my coffee table and on one of my cactus plants. Is this teething or a behavior problem? Any suggestions on what to do? Should I get him a rawhide bone or something? I don't remember my other cats doing this as kittens.

Toby has a little furry mouse toy I got him and he's always carrying it around. He brought it into my room the other day and dropped it so I went out in the hallway and threw it down the stairs and he ran down and got it and brought it back up, dropped it and waited for me to throw it again. He...

Here are some new pics of my baby boy, a 7 month old I adopted about a week ago

Hi. I have a small ledge in the hallway on the second floor of my house that drops down to the first floor. The ledge is over four feet off the ground and I've seen my new 7 month old kitty looking up at it a few times. If he jumps up there and overshoots, there's nothing to stop him from...
