we have been trying to socialize a feral kitten we brought into our home a little over 4 weeks ago. so far i think we have made a lot of progress. it's slow, but steady. when we first brought him in he freaked out. was climbing the walls for a day. settled down and was extremely skittish. he...

our rosie is very much our little girl's cat. she is 5, was 4 when we got him - he looooves her, so much. he goes to say hello to her every morning as soon as she gets up, gets loves and snuggles from her. when she sits on the ground her is always right next to her. he lets her put doll clothes...

it always amazes me how my cats can turn themselves into pretzels while still looking cozy as can be! she got spayed the day before yesterday and still she can all but fold herself in half and make it look comfortable!

we are dropping them at the clinic tonight and then we have a spay and a neuter tomorrow. pick them up on weds. much appreciated, i always get nervous about this stuff...

we were feeding these two guys in our alleyway all summer, they have had little to no socialization, and we are the only humans that have ever had anything to do with them. they are so different in temperament it is hard to believe that not only are they from the same litter but they have had...

we have just brought a feral stray that we have been feeding all summer into our home. it has been about a week, and everything seems to be going well, but over the past 2 days she has started getting a little growly at our big cats. we started her out in the mudroom, shut off from the other...

we managed to catch one of our stray kittens today to take her in for testing but we couldn't get her brother. he is much harder to handle, we can only touch him when eating. we tried to grab him and he took off, got him cornered in our yard and then he was gone what is the best way to get...

we've got two stray kittens who have been hanging out in our yard, their owners abandoned mama and babies when they moved and we have been feeding them for the past few weeks. we are taking them in today to get tested for feline leukemia... if they are negative we will be bringing them into our...

our neighbors suck and have not fixed their little tortie... she had kittens at the beginning of the summer and they have sort of migrated into our yard and i feed them. so we have a few questions: if i am feeding them (and i am not sure they are, the reason i put food out for them in the first...

the pet store where we usually get our taste of the wild has pulled all taste of the wild and indigo moon products due to the usage of ethoxyquin (which may cause cancer) there really isn't anywhere else around here to buy it, and i am rather concerned about carcinogens, so i am at a loss. as...

both of my younger cats have this habit of nibbling on your hand when you are petting them. they are happy, purring, the one will actually grab my hand with both his paws and bring it to his mouth so he can lick and chew on me. they both are big groomers, and will lick whomever as long as they...

can you please share some of your tried and true tricks to get a picky eater to scarf down their wet food? i could really use some suggestions... treats and things to sprinkle on the food if they are turning their noses up at the second half of the same can they ate happily earlier that day i...

for your cats to lose a bit of weight when switched from a grainy food to a grain free? (i'm not sure if i should put this here or in nutrition!) i have noticed that both of our little guys have lost a little weight since we have switched them - gradually - from natural balance ultra dry to...

our little guy puked last night. just a little puddle of liquid. woke up to him throwing up again this morning, and found another puddle next to him, which was FULL of hair. a flat mat about 1 1/2 inches long and at least an inch wide (it sort of pooled out on the baby jammies he threw up on)...

i don't really know if this is the right place to put this, but i have to talk about this somewhere where people aren't just going to think i am crazy. last may we adopted 2 8 week old kittens from one of the local spca's. one kitten had a bunch of different health issues, he rallied, was doing...

do you know a good place to order homeopathic remedies for your kitties? i am most interested in ordering some nosodes and some basic homeopathics to have around in case we need them. i am really trying to find the nosode for FIP - we lost a kitty to it in the end of november - since we still...

he may have FIP, is being treated and we are doing all we can to pull him through, but if the worst happens i am worried about how it will affect his brother - who is his littermate, we adopted them together - and am wondering if there is anything i can do to help rosie (the sick kitties...

he had an allergic reaction to flea bites a few weeks ago and last week he started to lose weight, lost his appetite and was lethargic and mopey. he hasn't been himself for a little over a week. he went to the vet, she suspects dry FIP from his bloodwork and presentation. he has always been...

our most allergic kitten either ate or came into contact with something two days ago that seems to have set his allergies off and he is scratching and licking at himself far far more than he ever has before. he has actually scratched a little patch of skin bare. he has food issues, and was...

by one of our baby kittens! alright, they aren't really babies anymore - they are 7 months old - but they are still the babies. our rosie seems to have fallen in love with her, she is very gentle and sweet with the kittens and loves to pet them. the cats sleep in our bedroom every night, in...
