So today, my cat peed on my bed, twice! The first time, luckily, I had a mattress protector on my duvet, but after i removed it to soak in the tub, she peed again! She is not usually like this. The first time she peed on my bed was when we first got her, but after a long while, she didn't pee...
For cat owners who use harnesses, do you always keep it on or do you take it off when you don't need it anymore?
I just started putting a harness on my cat. At first she wasn't reacting well to it, but it was probably my fault for not approaching the situation properly.
The next couple of...
How would I feed olive oil to my cat? I read a couple articles saying it was good for them. Do I mix it in their food? What if she eats dry food? or can give it to plain?
My cat is long-haired, and grooms herself often, so would olive oil help the hair pass through her system so she can poop...
So, I stupidly bought a 13lbs bag of dry cat food for my one cat, thinking I'd be saving money by getting more for my dollar, without even thinking about how long it will stay fresh! Doh!
How long would the food last in the bag?
We have one big air-tight tupperware container for her food...
Lately my cat has been fascinated by going to the basement. We keep the door closed, but she is always hovering around, trying to open the door with her paws repeatedly, sometimes to the point of whining. As much as I would love to make her happy, we cannot allow her in there because of how...
Anyone ever experience their cat jumping from the second floor to the first floor from the stairwell? Our cat always sticks her head through the railing and we're worried she will jump! Plus she would be landing on a set of stairs, so the floor isn't leveled. She should be aware of the stairs as...
I've had my cat for about 6 months now. Her previous owner said she used to rest her head on his arm when they slept. But then his wife started to shoo her off the bed. We let her sleep/lie on our beds whenever she wants, but when we try to cuddle or get on the bed, she either moves to another...
This may be a dumb question, but I am a little confused. The vet says we should clip their claws every 4-6 weeks to keep them from curling into their paws. But I have a friend whose cat is 9 years old, she never clips her claws. She also only takes her cat the to vet once a year, sometimes once...
So I'm pretty busy with my school work every day, but I try to set aside some time to play with my cat so she can get some exercise and is not just sitting around all day.
I have a meter stick that I hold, and have a piece of string tied on one end that I tease her with and she chases it around...
My cat likes scratching the carpet in the hallway, which is fine by me because it's old anyway, but sometimes I hear her chewing, and I see her putting the pieces of carpet in her mouth. Every time I turn around, she stops and acts all innocent. Then when I go over to her, I see a piece of...
Sometimes when I am eating, my cat follows me and watches. She tries to come really close and smells it. I sometimes want to share my food with her since I feel bad she eats the same things every day.
I've read many lists of human foods that are poisonous to cats, so I am aware of what not to...
Is spraying vinegar on my mattress enough to repel my cat from peeing on my bed again? Should I spray it every day just to be safe? If the smell is gone to me, I am assuming the cat's strong sense of smell can detect it even if I can't.
I don't have any of that Nature's Miracle stuff, so I am...
Does it sound like meowing? Do they sound similar or very different that it is easy to tell when a cat is crying and when it is meowing? I've never heard my cat cry before, just meow, but I'm new at this cat owner thing and am not sure if I would be able to tell the difference.
I think my cat peed on my bed and this is the second time I noticed!
The first time was when I first got her two weeks ago and we contained her in my room. I felt she was distracting during the night, climbing on things and I always kept an eye open to observe her. So one night I slept in my...
Sometimes, she enjoys it and I can hear her purr. But after a while, she tries to grab it, brings it to her mouth and chews on the brush, so I stop and put it away. I'm afraid she'll chew the plastic off and swallow it.
Sometimes, I can't brush her fur for long because she tries to play with...
This may be a silly question. I'm still trying to figure out my cat/cats in general.
Sometimes she lets me pet her for a while, and then all of a sudden she tries to hit me, so I stop and just wait until she wants attention.
Sometimes her eyes look like she is frowning - like people, but I...
Hi, I am a first-time cat owner and was just wondering what you (more experienced) cat owners think of my cat's diet. My cat is about one and a half years old and we feed her what her previous owners would feed her.
Iams Premium Protection for adults (1/3 cup in the morning and another in the...
Hi, I have had my cat for two weeks now. She is about one and a half years old. For the first couple of days she was just adjusting and quiet. But lately I have noticed she gets really hyper and starts running around really fast from one room to the next, and back and forth! Sometimes part of...
Sometimes if I am at home all day and know she went to do her business in her litter box, I want to clean it right away. But it is clumping litter and I know it needs time to harden or else there are these tiny clumps around her urine clumps.
I know every litter is different, but in general...
