    Need To Change From Pretty Litter-help

    hi! I have two cats, three boxes. They really seem to like using the pretty litter (it’s been a few months) but I need to change for the following reasons: 1. IT TRACKS EVERYWHERE. Mats, putting it in a tub, whatever I do...crystals everywhere. Crystals in my bed!!!! Yikes. 2. It’s really...

    Send Cats Away To “reset”?

    hi! I have two cats...LW is the boy, aged around 6, and a girl cat (LH) who is 7. Both have been fixed at an early age. I had LW for almost a year before getting LH. LH was a street cat, but very affectionate towards me. LW was rescued as a tiny baby. LW is a pretty confident cat...very...

    Lady Harriet, "Too Cute", missing kittens?

    Hi all…my boyfriend and I have had this debate and I wanted some input.   Lady Harriet (LH) was a rescue from the streets (by an adoption agency).  She had a litter when they found her, and would take other kittens under her care as well.  Eventually the kittens got adopted out and I adopted...

    Cat toothpaste

    So, my Lady Harriet had her teeth cleaned recently, even though she only about 1.7 years old. She was on the streets before coming to me (with a litter) so I am not surprised she had gignivitus and such. Anyway, the vet has asked me to start brushing her teeth, I know she doesn't care for I...

    Always hungry?

    So, some of you know that Lady Harriet had a serious health problem a little while ago---she wouldn't eat or drink--and it was from an infection.  Now that things are back to normal, a few issues are coming up. 1. She pukes up many wet foods, or doesn't like them.  I've found that her absolute...

    Newman's Own

    Hi all, So since she was sick, LH is a realllllly picky eater.  One of the only things she will actually gobble down is newman's own chicken/salmon flavor.  LW also enjoys it, so that's a plus.   Is there a cheaper alternative out there?  Has anyone had a cat who really likes newman's own...

    Scared and Nervous

    Hello all, You may remember the saga of Lady Harriet...she had a blockage (they think, but they never went inside her to look) but after staying at the hospital she got hydrated, passed, and was better. Everything was going well.  Now she isn't feeling well again.  She vomited the food that...

    LW's accident in my car...help with smell

    Hi Folks, So when I was taking LW to the vet yesterday I had to slam on breaks (my fault, I spaced out) and he peed himself/complained.   I used the nature's miracle on the car and the carrier and it has helped, but I can still detect it faintly.  I am not sure if perhaps I just need to drench...

    Lady Harriet and her "kill"

    So, Lady Harriet was on the streets as a younger cat and had a litter.  That's the background. She randomly picks up a mouse/bird/fish toy (it looks like a combo of all three creatures...I have attached it to the da bird stick) and she will drag the whole thing around, making really really odd...

    collars?

    So my kitties are indoor only and I have them wear collars.  I like to know where they are and the bells keep them from ambushing any unsuspecting souls.   Is it bad/mean to do this?  They are safety collars, and I take them off for a day here and there so they can groom that part of their...

    Lord Wilson (begal?) & Lady Harriet.

    Hi....so both of my kitties were rescued.  Some people say LW looks like he is part bengal (and he is strangely long in the torso by the way).  I'll put in a kitten photo and a more recent one, and then a photo of little Lady Harriet.  Any feedback on their possible roots is most welcome! Let...

    Lord Wheezy- my cat snores/snorts

    Lord Wilson makes the STRANGEST sounds.  He snores a lot and he makes very odd wheezy sounds.  I've two vets examine him about this and they have said there is nothing wrong with him, and that is probably left over from the URI he had as a tiny kitten.   Does anyone else have a snorlax kitty...

    returning to wet/dry diet, suggestions?

    Hi folks.  First, I am dead set on having both my cats on a wet/dry diet (if possible).  Please do not spend time trying to convince me they should only eat wet food.  Thanks.  So, I have two cats, Lord Wilson and Lady Harriet.  Lord Wilson eats dry food, generally whenever he feels (brand...

    You know he's a keeper...

    So, my boyfriend did not grow up with pets (his parents were both cops and they could not devote the time to properly caring for animals). When we met I did not have any pets because my apartment did not allow them.   Then, when I moved, I got Lord Wilson (at about 7-9 weeks old).  My boyfriend...

    Mom wants to adopt pregnant cat

    Hi folks, My mom lost the family kitty in the fall/winter (she was 16 years old and did well, despite having some real IBS).  She was pondering what she wanted to do about getting another cat (she has bouts of extensive traveling, so she is waiting for a time when she will be home for a while)...

    The "romance" of Lord Wilson/Lady Harriet

    Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the situation/dynamic that is developing between LH and LW. Both are fixed, btw.  Lord Wilson is just about a year, Lady Harriet is 1.5 years.  I adopted LW and August and I got LH around memorial day.  LW is social, but does not really...

    The saga of Lady Harriet---long

    Hello everyone.  I am new to the site, but let me dive right in and hear some of your thoughts.   So, I adopted a kitten back in August (he was rescued by an individual) named Lord Wilson (LW) and he is just about a year old.  He is a happy butt face, built-for-comfort cat.  He would have...
