    Question of the Day - Tuesday, December 29

    Not much of a traveler, but the Marilyn Monroe towers in Canada was the most interesting building I've seen personally. Had to pull over the car to gawk and take pictures.

    Cars! Arrrghhh

    For a moment I read the title as "Cats! Arrrghhh" and was expecting to read about destructive kitties on Christmas day, so I was really confused about the connection with cats and batteries. :lol:

    Any light bulb experts on here? Cant find the right color temperature.

    Where are you located? In the U.S, the most common colors for bulbs are Soft White, Warm White, Bright White and Daylight. Soft White is the most "yellow" (lowest temperature ~3000K) and Daylight is the most "blue" (highest temperature, ~ 6500K). Sunlight changes color throughout the day, so...

    Our new cat doesn't want to leave our bedroom.

    Completely normal. She may just like to hang out in the bedroom. As long as she's eating and using the box normally, nothing to worry about. I work at a cat cafe, and it's not uncommon to have cats who refuse to leave the small "acclimation room" for a couple of months before finally venturing...

    Cat's nose slight discoloration?

    Might just be wet nose. Mine does that too, same part of the nose turned darker brown (he's a brown tabby). It went away after a couple of days.

    Question of the day Wednesday August 19

    Barfing is a very physical activity for the cat. Doing it on rugs or carpet lets them claw into the rug for balance and gain purchase as they heave and barf. Similar to how we instinctively reach out to hold on to a wall or something when we barf into the toilet. Thank you for coming to my TED...

    My cat is suddenly afraid of everything

    Consider having him looked at by the vet too. Sometimes a drastic change in behavior may warrant a vet visit. My cat was a fearful, easily spooked cat, and in his case, the best thing for him is for me to totally ignore the behavior (after having him seen by my vet) and pretend like nothing is...

    I used to use this, but it tracks so badly that I ended up having to switch (again).

    Is it true that low quality wet food is better than high quality dry?

    Wet food is better than dry food, but the best kind of food is the kind your cat would actually eat. It is much more important that they eat.

    You Know Your Tired When...

    Once I was going to take the trash out. My brain was pre-occupied with a problem I've been ruminating on for quite a while. I decided I needed a break, so I figured I'd take the trash out. I took the trash bag, walked to my car, put the trash bag in the trunk, drove all the way to where I...

    Drowning Toys In Water Bowl

    One of the cats I catsit for does that. He's got two water bowls; one to drink from, and the other to dunk his toys in. I think they're secretly sadists and love hearing the drowning screams of fluffy mice.

    Need Help Modifying Behavior! New Cat

    Oh boy. You just described one of my cats with the refusing to be picked up thing. He will flail and claw every object within two miles. You may never be able to clip his nails yourself, or at least it would be years before he overcomes that anxiety. I've had my little one for two years now, and...

    my cat is peeing outside his litter box

    Hello! Sorry to hear about your cat's litterbox issues. The good news is, it's absolutely fixable! We will need a bit more information to see if we can narrow down the reason for his behavior, and I note a brief reason for each question. 1) How old is he? Older cats may have joint problems. If...

    October 3 - Monday's Question of the Day

    I guess I'm the only one who would be wrecked by guilt and can never ever see a pet cat the same way again. :lol3:

    October 3 - Monday's Question of the Day

    Today's question is a little whimsical. It is one of those questions that just randomly popped in my head. What would you do if we discovered that our cats really only love us because of Stockholm Syndrome?

    Kitten keeps crying to go outside

    My inclination is this. It can be an additional source of mental stimulation for him, which is always a good thing. Even a couple of times a week is good, it doesn't have to be every day unless you can make that work. My cat stays indoor because he's not interested in outside, and I live near a...
