hi and welcome to you and your kitten. its great here and I hope you enjoy yourself and i can't wait to see pics of Urmah. and i also agree with attempting to capture the mother cat. i had the same deal with a litter of kittens born in my backyard in a neighbor's old unused car and a family...
I was trimming Daphne's claws today when i noticed something on her front right paw. sure enough, it was red and looked almost scabby around the left edge of the middle paw pad. this has happened twice before in Daphne's six years, and each time the vet gave me medicine for it. i can't remember...
i do the same thing with Daphne but she's a lot older - 6, 7 years on march 24 - and it makes me cry thinking about it. she's been the best friend when no one was around, and i'd die without her... and I'll go on like that until i realize she's got a ton of life left and I'm enjoying every...
aww thats so sweet! i too have to say that Daphne has played a big roll in my life. Generally, she doesn't like to be held or handled for too too long. But there was a time when she allowed me to hug her tight and use her as a pillow for half an hour and cry on her after me and my parents had a...
I sometimes try and copy Daphne's sounds, but the only time she ever makes noise is when she knows its dinnertime and she's hasn't been fed yet, or when she's locked in or out of a room while I have my snake out, so im not really saying much at all. lol. plus im not very good at copying the...
I am so sorry. its so sad and i will pray for you and Tedi. I believe that he is in total happiness now. i can tell you loved him very much and cared about him. you are in my prayers and i hope you can find some peace knowing he is happy now and that you did the right thing.

1. The oldest-living cat was a 31-year-old Burmesenames Kataleena Lady. She lived in Melbourne, Australia. She was born on march 11, 1977 and died sometime in 2008.
2. It is scienticifically proven that owning a cat is good for human health. It decreases the risk of high blood pressure and...
i absolutely agree with keeping them separated. as much as i love my sweetheart, i would never allow her to do anything harmfull to peanut (who is a corn snake, btw). just want to know what to do to keep her from crying and trying to re-enter the room. food only sometimes works, and she has no...
yes i picked up a laser pointer for chubby Daphne today and she loves it. she's going crazy for it, and its a big step for her because she usually doesn't like toys too much. im really hoping for the best because this is like the first toy not containing catnip that Daphne is interested in!!
When I got my kitty, she was a rescued kitten born from a feral mom. She's my best friend in the world, and is loving and caring - but normally only toward me. She's super shy around other people, and hides from guests. It took her around 4 years to become a true family cat that everyone could...
1. In Middle ages, people thought that cats had fangs and were venomous. People thought that they were the cause of all things bad; ranging from stale beer to sicknesses and diseases.
2. If you touch a cat's whiskers, it will squint the eye on that side. The whiskers act like little fingers, so...
you should really try the old towel trick. it's used between dogs and cats when they aren't getting along to releave some of the stress and gently ease them into getting to know each other. put the two cats in two separate rooms. give them each a small hand towel. Have them roll on it, sleep on...
thank you so much for all the advice! i really appreciate it and im very confident the vet and all the advice will help. i'll definetly have something to work with while I work on getting her a "game plan"!!

Something ive learned from experience is that if your cat is urinating in the wrong places, it helps if his/her best friend in cleaning and changing the litter box. Their scent is left behind, and the cat can detect it and is more comfortable using the litter box. Also, a special brand of cat...
thank you very much... I haven't tried a lazer pointer, but that's deffinetly a great idea. ive seen them at the local pet shop near where i live so i will definetly get one for her. thanks!!
i hope eveything goes well with Katie and that there is nothing seriously wrong. I'll be praying for you. it sounds like Katie means a lot to you and you must love her very much. best wishes, thoughts, hopes, and prayers - D.
