    Vacation plans?

    We're taking a week long trip in a couple weeks to FL, my friend is going on a cruise and headed down a few days early, said we should come with. Kind of short notice but it's always nice to get away, we rented a house with a pool for all of us and I've got a beach front hotel for a couple days...

    Is my cat a main coon?

    Domestic long hair, cats aren't generally breeds, mixes of breeds would be even less likely, purebred cats are a very new thing and very rare compared to domestics. So cats are described by their coat length, color and pattern.

    Opinion poll about indoor vs outdoor cats, behaviorally speaking

    Most people I know with cats they let outside, they do it because they can't be bothered to deal with their cat, it yowls or it pees inappropriately, if you toss it outside obviously you don't have to deal with any misbehaviors because now they are out killing wildlife and peeing in other...

    Bengal tabby mix?

    Probably not, your kitty looks like a domestic calico striped tabby. Bengals have rosettes so pattern and appearance wise there's nothing I see that screams Bengal. Being crazy, active, loud, liking water, etc are all pretty normal cat traits especially if she's young

    Question about a newly adopted bengal.

    This is a kitten yes? It's best to start all new pets in a confined area but especially very young ones, a large space can be overwhelming at first and they haven't got much bladder control at that age, you want them close to a potty area while they get the hang of it and slowly expand. So...

    Ragamese?

    Pretty boy! Unless you bought him from a breeder with a pedigee, he's a domestic, most cats aren't any breed at all just randomly bred.

    Gentle Giants cat food

    Yes they were/are? a "retail rescue", always full of litters of rare giant breeds, very unsavory reputation for a long time.

    Neighbors are not supposed to have dogs, but they do. How would you respond?

    Seems pretty hypocritical to be upset about a dog getting loose when your cat was also loose? Nothing happened, everything is fine, move on and be more careful and hopefully your neighbor will as well.

    8 month old pregnant kitten (really small!)/Vomiting

    Great advice above, I would also use this time before she gives birth to get your male fixed, they can still impregnate for awhile after a neuter as well.

    Is my cat part bengal???

    Classic tabby like your kitty is the oldest tabby pattern in existence, it's been around thousand of years before Bengals were ever created and it was bred into them. The spotted belly is a tabby trait and everything else sounds pretty normal for a cat of any background. I don't see any Bengal...

    Rag doll/ Ragamuffin mix

    Because they couldn't get 3-4x the price that way, it's retail rescue and there are a lot of those types. Both breeders and rescues can be shady and unethical, people have to really do their research.

    Our Toy Aussie

    So what is a "toy aussie" made of? I know Miniature American Shepherds is what they have decided on to legitimatize the mini-Aussie trend and separate from the standard size but no breed actually comes in toy to my knowledge, do you know what breed mix she is? If they have a lot of chihuahua...

    I think my cat is transferring chiggers to me

    It really could be a reaction to almost anything, she could be rubbing against a plant your skin reacts to, it appearing as spots doesn't mean something is biting you imo. I don't know that a vet would be an expert on bugs and I wouldn't give that much credence tbh. I had a friend who was...

    Help! Feeling guilty and it’s triggering, my anxiety and depression

    Do you have a place for him to go? A quieter home might help his issues on one hand but generally it's pretty difficult to find a unicorn no pet quiet home, especially one that wants to take on a pet with behavioral or medical issues. Is he peeing places currently? A puppy is a lot of stress...

    Maine coon kitten

    It'd be pretty hard to judge a couple weeks difference on a kitten from pics so I wouldn't worry about it any, why buy from a byb with all those red flags though?

    Is my kitty pregnant?

    Make sure her and the kittens all get fixed, or the cycle will continue. No one wants to end a pregnancy but finding a forever home for a cat is hard and thousands are put down yearly for lack of homes already.

    Does anyone have dogs?

    I've only had dogs since I moved out on my own, none as a kid, we adopted three shelter specials over the years after getting a house, all adult pit bull mixes. We also fostered several dogs of various breeds for rescues and friends. Currently have one senior bulldog/pit mix left and a Presa...
