    Cat is over-grooming herself: stress-related perhaps?

    Hello everyone! My gorgeous kitty Rasberry has in the last month or so started to seriously over-groom herself. She cleans herself so much that she is losing hair on her tummy, thighs, and around her tail area. The skin itself does not appear red, dry or irritated, and is not broken. She just...

    How to trap a feral without a trap?

    We are currently relocating a small colony of feral cats (4 in total) and these girls are so smart it's been difficult to trap them. We have managed to trap 3 of them now, and only one remains. Because this has been such a long process (bad weather, cats that get too smart) we've been trapping...

So we did the whole...

    Is it safe to feed my cat Biltong

    I have actually tried to start a new thread now, can't seem to do so, but what I want to ask relates to the cooked ham question... I want to know if it's safe to feed my cat biltong (a South African meat delicacy, 'cured meat' left to dry out, dried using vinegar)? It's almost like beef...

    Adopted a 5 week old kitten

    My kitten was 5 weeks old when she was taken away from her mother. She was also advertised over the web as 'free to a good home'. She seems to be adjusting just fine. What problems can arise from taking them away this early? She was eating and drinking on her own when we got her. She seems...
