    How Do You Deal With Feline Pica?

    Angel is my seven year old Turkish Angora female. For some reason known only to her, she likes to lick the porcelain around the bathtub drain. After I take a bath I have to stop her from jumping in the bathtub before I clean the tub. I'm very careful not to use strong chemicals in the house...

    Rocky Versus Everybody!!!!

    I am having problems with my youngest one, six month old Rocky. He came from a cat rescue group here in St. Louis, and I got the impression that he was sent from one foster home to another. He always did have an "in your face" personality, but now that he's gotten bigger it's becoming a...

    We're Back!

    Hi, guys! I hope everyone had a safe and merry xmas! Me and the kids have settled into our new apartment. It's not perfect, but it's a heck of a lot better than where we were before. Angel has fully recovered from her feline acne, Ruby is still as fat and cranky as ever (it's just her...

    Funny Furry Faces

    What kind of funny facial expressions do your furkids use? While we were living at my mother's house one evening I held Angel in my arms and walked into my mother's bedroom. Angel was relaxed and alert, and before I knew it she looked around the room, hissed, and then threw her head back...

    From Loving Furball To Maniac & Back Again

    My cats and I lived at my mother's house for about two weeks while my apartment was being made ready. During that time I noticed that my girl Angel became increasingly hostile towards me. She would growl ferociously every time I picked her up, and was extremely irritable towards everybody. She...

    Voodoo Barbie Is In The House

    Just wanted you guys to know that me and my cats escaped the little hellhole on the prairie on Saturday, October 4th. My ex-friend started yelling and screaming that she was sick and tired of me living there (mind you, the gas service was still cut off, and the lights were next). Her son had to...

    I Am Sitting Here At Work Giggling Uncontrollably

    It's a good thing I'm alone in the office. I have chronicled my recent troubles with my ex-friend and landlord elsewhere on this board, so I see no reason to re-hash the gory details here. I want you all to know that this morning I received a phone call from a very nice gentleman who owns...

    Unsolved Mysteries (Long!)

    I rent the second floor of a so-called "friend's" house. She doesn't like cats, and acts extremely fearful around them, even though the one time she was around my cats they ignored her, for the most part. I noticed my friend was acting more stressed out than usual when her mother became ill...

    Kitten Vs Headphones

    I have FINALLY found something that my kitten Rocky is afraid of. Stereo headphones. I was sitting on my bed with the headphones on, and he was walking by. He looked me up and down, and when he saw this thing on my head his ears went back and he started backing up out of the room. I got up...

    Portable A/C Inspectors Find Work

    My cat Angel has the longest hair of my three cats--she's a Turkish Angora and her hair is fairly long and silky, but it never matts. She suffered the most during the recent heat wave here in the MidWest, but she didn't want to go near the portable A/C at first because she didn't like the noise...

    The League of Conniving Felines

    My kids seem to think that they should be fed EVERY morning at 6AM, no matter what. Last Saturday Rocky and Angel kept jumping up on my bed, and Ruby was walking around yelling out "Now! Now!" so I got up and threw them all out of my bedroom. I closed the door, opened a window and turned on my...

    No A/C--How Do You Cope?

    Is anyone else suffering from the heat out there? I live in the Midwest, and the A/C unit I ordered was late in arriving because of the holiday. I put a large spray bottle in the refrigerator, and when it was cool I misted the airspace above the cats. Rocky enjoyed it. Angel stayed put until...

    The Box Lasts Longer Than The Computer

    Over five years ago I constructed a huge kitty condo out of five Dell computer boxes for my cats. I cut various holes in the boxes, glued carpet squares in each compartment, and hung toys at various spots. I moved last year, and the cardboard kitty condo came with us. The movers were kutzes...

    Hi There!

    I'm completely new to this board! I live with two older cats and one little pipsqueak. Angel is a beautiful six year old tuxedo Turkish Angora; five year old Ruby is a five year old domestic shorthair who was raised in a barn (literally!) but prefers the pampered city life. Our newest addition...
