Every few years this becomes a problem again, and I finally narrowed down the cause. My cat (for the most part) never urinated outside of her litter box until the last few years (there is no medical cause for this, she has seen the vet multiple times). She used to be very independent and not...

So my cat recently has started peeing in corners on the carpet. This seems to be a fairly new behavior, she has not done this the last 4-5 years to my knowledge. She has already been checked at the vet (twice) a few months apart and they have confirmed that she's in good health and does not have...

Hi all. Been a while since I've posted... My kitty has an on-going cough that will not go away. It seemed to start back in the summer, and has been a reoccurring thing since then. I never noticed her doing this in the past, so I took her to the vet. Three separate vets have said she's fine, and...

So weird lol. I've noticed if I do anything involving olive oil, my cat goes nuts and wants in on the action. Last time, I used some on my hair as an oil treatment and kitty was suddenly very interested in nuzzling my hair. Then today, I made sweet potato fries (coated in olive oil) and I guess...

Has anyone been able to introduce their cat to a dog that isn't used to being around cats? I'm currently dating someone who has a boxer dog. At this stage there's no guarantee it'll go anywhere, but we have talked about the future somewhat, which makes me a little worried about transitioning my...

I'm at my wit's end with my Himalayan. I comb and brush my kitty daily, but this darn undercoat keeps getting messed up! I think it actually gets worse when she bathes herself, because the licking gets the coat tangled up into little tufts. And if I don't get them out within a few hours of...

First off, my cat is SUCH a picky eater so it's probably just that, but I wanted to ask just in case.. Today and yesterday she's suddenly started refusing her Friskies Shreds that I just bought in a multipack. This is the one wet food that she will eat. Just wondering if anyone else's cat has...

When my kitty goes to the bathroom, she *sometimes* leaves behind a sparkly, salt-like substance in her urine. Initially, I freaked out and took her to the vet, along with a sample I'd scooped from the box to show them. They did a urinalysis and said she was fine, crystals were within a normal...

Is anyone being extra cruel this year and planning on dressing up kitty in a Halloween costume? Or am I the only one?

Alright help me out here. One vet said I should have her put under for a dental cleaning because the vet thought she had a little bit of gingivitis, but another (different) vet took a look and said she was fine. I don't want her put under for anything unless it's a life or death situation...

I thought this was cute for a while, but it's getting pretty creepy actually. Ever since I went back to school, my cat likes to sit on the window sill directly across from my bed and intensely stare at me while I'm sleeping. She's sitting in the window, but instead of looking outside and...

I feel so bad. I've just got my poor kitty nicely settled in here (aka all the boxes are finally unpacked) and now I'm going to be moving again in about 16 weeks! I just moved here 3 months ago from another state, and now due to a way better job offer, it looks like we'll be moving right back...

I used to work from home full time, and this allowed me to spend a LOT of time with Captain Cuddles. Unfortunately for her, I went back to school this year so now I'm gone 2 days a week for about 12 hours straight. Next year, I'll also be taking a new (not from home) job so I'll be gone every...

I've been searching on google but can't seem to find any cat-specific info... basically, I just moved to TX and there's BIG freaky bugs here! My condo is brand new and appears air tight, so I have no idea how this thing even got inside without knocking at the front door! My kitty was sitting in...

My cat's been kind of lethargic today, and I noticed her making little sneezes. She also keeps shutting her right eye and kind of keeping it half closed, but if she hears a noise or wakes up for food she can fully open it with no problem. She's just kind of blinking it/keeping it half shut more...

I just ordered one that looks like a large potted plant, but is really a litter box! I'm pretty excited haha, despite the fact that this thing was like $60  I have a good amount of space but I'm just so tired of looking at the kitty litter, it's depressing almost. I think it'll double as a...

So gross. My cat LOVES dirty towels, but not just the lightly used ones... only the ones that had been used daily and then thrown in the laundry pile and sat there waiting to be washed a week longer than they should. Every time I empty out the hamper to separate all my loads for laundry day, my...

The ones with meaty bits or fish in the pouch? I bought them for Captain Cuddles to try but she won't eat more than a teaspoon, and I dont want the rest of the pouch to go to waste. (Clearly this will end up being a treat and not a meal, like everything else with a wet texture I've tried -_-) I...

It drives me NUTS... She does it so loudly (literally snapping the plastic back and forth) that you can hear it outside my house with the doors shut! It's not a bathroom issue, she goes normally and regularly but she just loves clawing the crap out of the edges of her litter tray. She doesn't...

I'm transitioning my kitty to wet/grain free, and it's seriously the battle of a lifetime! I've stopped free feeding, but she won't touch any brand of grain-free dry.. I've had a little bit of luck with the Wellness Core dry, but only when mixed with her old Purina. She still picks out most of...
