I have non-toxic plants, but even so, I hang them from the ceiling. Even if they aren't deadly to the cat, the cat is still deadly to them.    Oh, and I give little sticks to the cats to chew on. Tree sticks and bully sticks (normally given to dogs). If they have the urge to chew, why not let them?

If your furnace/AC unit is also in your basement, then it's blowing cat litter air throughout your entire house. For me, the trick was filters. Filters everywhere. Get a good furnace filter (replace it regularly, perhaps even more often than they recommend) and get vent filters, too. I bought a...

He's not constipated, as he's been urinating and defecating normally. I'm not stimulating them because they're old enough to go on their own. They're both gaining well, according to the weight chart for kittens I have. They're eating the right amount, too.  Last week was Thanksgiving, so I was...

This is Purrkins. I was fostering him, but today he went to his new home where he'll be an emotional support animal. 

This picture makes me so happy. My 11-year-old sweetheart Hester snuggling the foster kittens. 

I have 8 orphaned kittens at the moment, six that are 8 weeks old and two that are 3 weeks old. Of the two 3-week-olds, one will not stop crying. I can't figure out what's wrong with him. I'm feeding them both constantly, they're both free of parasites and by all accounts very healthy...

Yes, she is flame point

I've been suggesting people adopt them in pairs, but of course not everyone wants to. I'm adopting two and my parents are adopting two. Someone else is adopting one (that person lives with another cat, so that could be good, depending on the other cat), so there's one left that hasn't found a...

I have a litter of orphan kittens that I estimate are about 8 weeks old (they are weaned). I have homes lined up for most of them, so now I'm wondering at what age I should rehome them. I know 8 weeks is the minimum and some people prefer to wait til 12 weeks, or some time in between. My...

I love ginger kitties, too. I just adopted a ginger and a flame point (sisters). Looking at this litter, if they all have the same father, then the gingers are definitely male, because one of the kittens is tortoiseshell. 

Oh geez, the list is endless. Kids' laundry, my online courses, cleaning the yard, cleaning the kitchen, cleaning out the basement, cleaning the whole house, making Halloween costumes, filling out forms, filling out other forms, sending mail, taking a shower. I missed an orthodontist appointment...

I'm not sure if it's the first, but the earliest costume I remember was a princess riding a horse. My mom made it. I never had a store-bought costume. 

Cute! They're looking fit and healthy and don't seem too concerned by your picture-taking, so that's a good sign!

I think kidney disease is common in cats and giving Temptations cat treats is also common, so you will inevitably wind up with a lot of people whose cats get kidney disease after they've been given the Temptations. It doesn't mean the two are connected. I mean, you could probably find enough...

Even the cheapest canned is better than high quality dry for any cat, but particularly an overweight cat. In fact, the only time dry was ever recommended to me was feeding a severely malnourished cat that was having trouble eating, because the dry is the most calorie-dense form of cat food. Even...
