Yes, both my cats have been thoroughly run thru every possible test at the Vet, and she found nothing wrong with either of them--so, this issue is emotional in origin with my girl.  Her brother, her litter mate and born the same day, is fine. My girl pees in the boxes in the den or bathroom...

I own a comb already, so The Furminator will be given to someone else...thanks all for the help.  I feel so badly that I hurt my babies--with all good intentions--but I did...sigh.   Now the next job is to start brushing their teeth.  Yeah, I know....good luck on that one, too...LOL! Clipping...

OOOOOOH!  How horrible that I was hurting my kitties and not realizing it.  I get it.  Well, guess that Furminator goes to someone else. May I ask you as a Professional Cat Groomer what you use then for the Maine Coons to groom them?

Both my Maine Coon hairy mixes absolutely HATE the Furminator.  The boy (almost 20 lbs. at 8 months!) hates it so much he even has hissed and acted like he was going to bite me.  He's normally a very sweet boy, but he just absolutely hates the Furminator with a passion.  The girl is a little...

OMG...this is FANTASTIC!!!  I cannot thank you enough for all the ideas and creativity!  I am so grateful that someone would take the time to do this....thank you so very, very much!!!  

Of course I could throw some funky rugs for the cats to scratch--but gee! I hate to do it in the living room.  I know you know what I mean.  Still and all, I have moved the large cardboard scratcher to the front bay window in the kitchen in the hopes it might make a difference.  I doubt it, but...

I sprayed with catnip spray the heck out of all the kitty's things, but they just don't get the cardboard piece.  If my son gets a kitty that likes it I will give it to him or, if not, it is going to a local kitty shelter.  I hate to waste the $50 but what can I do--kitties are spoiled at my...

Great ideas..thanks!

I purchased a $50 huge cardboard horizontal scratcher for my 2 kitties, and will they use it?  No.  They will stand on it, they will lay on it but they will not use it to scratch on. They also seem to have some aversion to sisal.  I bought them a tall cat tree with sisal posts.  They grab the...

There is another group that does TNR, so we would not want to step on their toes. However, I have thought of PetSmart, but would they take us as volunteers if it were just for a day?  

Why does the longer Furminator not work well do you think?  Interesting remark and just wondering. I got my large Furminator which is dark purple on the net, so I am worried it is a reproduction and not the original.  When I go to Petco next time I am bringing it to compare.  It is very well...

I have gathered the sound of running water scares them, unfortunately, it's a necessity when trying to get the soap off. But I never thought of lining the sink with a towel--I definitely will try this one!!!  Much thanks for that!!!!

I know nothing about fish, so I didn't even know about the black gravel.  I definitely will check into that one. However, I have done whatever I could think of to keep him off the plants.  I put chili pepper flakes on top hoping the smell would stop him and it worked...until they lost their...

They are totally white so any dirt shows, and it doesn't help that the girl loves to hide under the bed probably with dust bunnies and the boy...oh, that boy!..just love to jump into the dirt where the indoor plants are; so, the dirt is on his hind legs more than the top of his paws. I just...

One thing I did wrong is to wiggle my fingers at the kitty to play.  Don't do that.  They think this gives them carte blanche to bite!  Cute when they are babies...not so cute when they are huge cats.

I joined a Cat Lovers' Club, but the organizer--a longtime cat lover and super gal--is stuck for ideas as to activities to keep the group going.  Anyone have any ideas for us? So far, we have gone to a Cat Show, but I think only 4 people showed up even tho 9 were supposed to be there. We also...

My 2 kittens HATE the new Furminator (long hair one) I bought on Amazon so much that I am taking it into Petco and checking to see if this one is an original or a reproduction.  They hate it, cry when I brush them with it, and I want to find some other solution. Their hair does not matte at...

I have two solid white kittens, 6 months old, but once they started growing I could tell they are a Maine Coon mix. Their mother is a white short hair cat.  Their hair is typical Maine Coon length, and the  kittens are solid white. I check or clip their nails every week to make sure they are...

Here's what I've done and--to my shock--it seems to be working well.  I quite trying to pick up the boy and cuddle him which he fought.  I just ignored him other than passing by him with an occasional pat on the head like I did the girl (always equal).  Now today I had a scammer send an email...

I'll give it a whirl getting these old bones down to kitty level.  I have been more or less ignoring him since I wrote the initial post.  He does come up to me occasionally for a pet...it's a start.
