    Preggers !

    I just found out that I'm expecting. My family is having a fit. They're saying that I have to get rid of Reggae and it's breaking my heart. I'm not due until August so I have a ways to go yet. But Reggae is still young and very active and needs a lot of attention. Am I going to be able to offer...

    Water Sprayer

    I sacrificed my dining room table for 2 months (almost) for the sake of teaching Reggae to stay off it. That didn't work. She found how to walk around the sticky paws and even began to play with it. She doesn't respond to my rants about move, get down, no! She just sits there and looks at me...

    Reggae's acting funny

    Yesterday morning she got her 2nd distempter shot and rabies shot. She was acting sleepy and not very playful, but I thought that would be normal for the remainder of yesterday - (BTW she also got a cast off for a dislocated tibia). But then again this morning she wasn't playful at all, she...

    Reggae's cast came off today!

    I took her to the vet this morning to get her little cast off. Her leg looks so funny It's smaller than the other one and it looks all stiff. The doctor said that it'll fatten up and become stronger as she uses it more. But I'm so happy my baby has her leg back. She has a bald spot where the...

    Bubbles for the cat?

    I found these in the cat toy section. Catnip laced bubbles that you blow. They harden just a little so the cat can bat at them. I thought this would be so cute I was wrong in a big big way! Reggae hated them. She balled up in and started hissing at the bubbles. She was so upset. I just...

    litter crystals

    Who has tried this? I love it. It's these little crystal balls and you only change them 1x per month. They absorb and neutralize the smell of urine, and you just scoop out the #2's. Reggae and I love this litter

    Is it inevitable that she'll resent me for the spay?

    I am going to get Reggae spayed within the next couple of months. I'm going to try to wait until she's a little older. But my question is, Is she going to hate me for it? I don't want her to turn on me b/c of this spay. Is there anything I can do to make this procedure any easier on her when...

    Can a kitty be trained not to get in your face?

    I love Reggae to death but I hate those rough sandpaper licks, her cold wet nose in my face or the feel of something that close to my face sniffing. Sorry. I just don't. I love hugs and for her to sit in my lap. Can she be trained not to get in my face? Last night as I was sitting, when she got...

    Dislocated Tibula

    Reggae fell on Sunday and dislocated her tibula and has a cast on her entire tiny leg. The doc said that it will take 2-3 weeks to heal. I feel absolutely horrible (it's partly my fault, I startled her, not intentionally but all the same). She moving around and playing as normal, but I am...

    Disatisfied with old vet, love new vet

    the first vet I took Reggae to I hated. It was so far out and the staff was clueless and not very personable with my kitty and I. 1 time was enough for me. So I switched and now I'm very happy with my new vet. I'm one of those consumers who likes to voice satisfaction/disatisfaction. Would it be...

    What's so bad about fish for cats anyway?

    I thought that fish & milk are cat's favorite foods I know that's not true, that milk can upset a cat's digestive system, but why isn't fish nutritionally sound for kitties?

    How often do you clean your kitty's ears?

    I'm a new cat owner, and I know that keeping their ears clean is important. 1st question - is this something I should be doing myself or should I only trust a groomer or vet to clean her ears? and 2nd question- how often should I be cleaning her ears?

    How often do you offer canned food?

    I offer dry food all day long and canned once a week for my kitten. I'm curious to see what everyone else does. I am concerned about dental health so that's why I only do it once a week. But she loves it so much I wish I could give it to her more often. I haven't figured out how to brush her...

    Authority (brand)

    Do any of you have experience with this brand of kitty food? I saw it in PetSmart the other day. I looked at the ingredients, and it looks good, no by-products. I bought a few cans for my baby and she loved it! (I don't know that's because it's her first experience with wet food or what ) But I...

    Bad Gas!!! Pewwwwww

    Reggae is 10 weeks old and has the worst smelling gas. I've only had her for a week, but I've been noticing this gas only for a few days. I'm using the same food that they were using in the pet shop. I don't know if it's the quality of the food, or if her passing gas is just normal. Can someone...

    Pooping on futon!!! Help me.

    I am so sad. I love Reggae but I'm hating the fact that she has this strange attraction to my futon and loves to poop on it! Now, while I am away at work, I close the bedroom door, the computer room door and the bathroom door. She has free range of the living dining and kitchen area. The...
