    Kitten who wheezes when she purrs

    I have a 5 month old kitten who came home from the shelter sneezing a lot. The vet said she had picked up a bug from the shelter and that she would get over it. She did, she only seems to sneeze on occasion now. But we noticed this past weekend that when she purrs, sometimes her breathing is...

    Feed my kitten wet and dry food?

    Mags: Thanks for the great info! She started w/wet food and has had no diarrea yet. She hasn't gorged herself so much that she vomits, and she actually does seem to have slowed down a bit. So I'm sure you're right about her figuring out that she doesn't have to gorge as she's the only one and...

    How do I keep my kitten off the kitchen counters?

    Thanks, Heidi! Lots of great suggestions! I'll try the balloons and keep my eyes open for the other product. And I love the smell of citrus, so I'll definitely give that one a shot!

    That's what I figured. I usually gave my previous cat dry food all the time and wet food as a treat. She always seemed to eat in moderation.

    Feed my kitten wet and dry food?

    I have a 4 month old tabby who was eating canned food 2x a day at the shelter I got her from. Both the shelter and the vet said to continue w/the wet, as it's supposedly better for cats than just dry (more realistic to what they would eat in the wild, lo-carb so weight gain isn't a huge problem...

    How do I keep my kitten off the kitchen counters?

    I have a 4 month old brown tabby w/tremendous engergy. She tries to get onto everything, and the kitchen counters are of course the most interesting. My previous cats would get on the counters, but only when I was gone (clever kitty!). I can't remember how I cured my first kitten of getting on...
