Our vet told us we'd only need to cut them if they grew in such a curved manner that they grew back into the paw.  Our cats are indoor cats but are avid scratchers of their posts, and we find little claw "scales" that they've shed while scratching.  However, I have been thinking of slipping the...

To help with our cat's chlamydia, in addition to antibiotics, we were given a tube of tetracycline eye ointment.  Not only is this incredibly difficult to administer, but Loa (our cat) gets terrified and hides from us afterward.  It is so stressful for not only the cat but us as well.  Any advice!?!

I've been feeding my girls Merricks for a little while.  Unfortunately, the girls like a limited selection of flavours (Turducken, Thanksgiving day dinner, and Grammy's Pot Pie).  Really, they only eat Thanksgiving Day Dinner and Grammy's Pot Pie with mild/feigned interest.  Turducken is their...

This reply threw me for a bit of a loop at first because my name is Jason! 

People who feed dry food, and I am not saying you fall into this category, tend to - in my observations - leave a bowl out all the time and the cat sort of grazes and has no set meal times and there for is never really hungry.  Cats who are fed wet food usually get it for small windows of time...

It arrived!!!  

I crave variety so to peg it down to one single sandwich is pretty hard.  I'd have to say my top three sandwiches are, in no particular order: Bacon, avocado, and tomato A GOOD club sandwich A home made vegetable panini with lots of grilled veggies (red pepper, zucchini, asparagus...

I have two DSHs and have not found a satisfying method for grooming them.  We first tried this glove that has small rubber "bristles".  It didn't seem like it did too much.  I then got a FURminator and it seems almost counter productive.  It does remove a lot of hair (maybe too much?) but it...

This is not a problem behavior, in fact we find it adorable, but I am just curious about what it all means. Trivia, while mousing, will run around the house with one of her toy mouses in her mouth and meow loudly. And not just an ordinary meow, but a long warble like meow. What is she...

Well other than that one incident she has had clear eyes all weekend. Maybe her tear ducts just got some gak in it? I know she has had no shortage of energy, and is eating and pooping fine.

Yes, we're sticking with the L-lysine until at least the tube is done.  

Downton Tabby Estate?

Before turning on, or leaving, the dryer or leaving the fridge; my we always do a cat count as both love to explore those spots.  

Ha!!! My wife's uncle collects little jars of sand from all over the world.  I always thought that that was pretty neat and could see myself doing something similar. I don't actually collect anything, largely because I don't know what I'd do with a collection.  Set it out somewhere?  Keep it...

Today, Trivia has a couple of watery eyes.  She had Chlamydia (was swabbed and tested) and received a round of doxycycline.  After a few days her symptoms cleared up.  After a week we got Loa, who shared quarters with Trivia at the shelter and who we knew had a URI.  We kept he isolated for a...

We leave all the doors in our house open, except for the laundry room and the closets.  Our two little girls have managed, by way of playing around, locked them selves for a day in the office (not so bad, they have a litter box in there but no food or water), and once Trivia locked her self in...

The weirdest thing though is ever since we got Loa, Trivia sometimes wanders around meowing loudly.  The best my wife and I can figure is she is calling to Loa.  *shrug*  The furry little buggers are mysteries!

I initially put a belled collar on Trivia, but I started to think it might annoy her.  It also often got in the way when I scratched her chin, which she loves!  However, I worry about them escaping one day.  I suppose I could get them micro-chipped.
