Hmm; not quite sure what to do about this, so would appreciate any suggestions. :) Unfortunately, the two girls have never been too keen on being brushed, either with a standard soft brush, or with the ZoomGroo; they'll tolerate it for a few seconds, then spar and squirm away (nothing nasty...

A question inspired by one of mine, Rîna, this morning deciding it would be a good idea to park herself on the floor right in front of me, just as I was moving past, carrying a tray containing a bowl of milk-saturated cornflakes. needless to say, bowl upended; milk and cornflakes all over the...

Hmm; not certain whether this idea will work as I intend, but I can't think of another elegant solution. Basically, I'm starting to have real trouble with at least one of the kittens bringing little visitors into the house through the microchip cat-flap. To be blunt, Rîna is becoming an...

Just curious as to whether anybody has had experience with this, particularly observing cats who have been raised exclusively by blind owners. This is something a friend and I were discussing a while ago, and in particular, whether cats raised from kittenhood by totally blind owners (with no...

Probably no hope of stopping this, but I'm wondering if anybody else has had this trouble. Unfortunately, it seems Rîna has developed a new fascination: finding the most disgusting things she can get her silly little paws on from the garden (large, squashy leavs; worms; wriggly things; mashed...

Curious to know whether somebody has encountered this, as I can't find anything exactly that matches this situation. My understanding always has been that there is absolutely no such thing as play-hissing/play-snarling; a hissing or snarling cat means they are not happy. The problem is that...

Wondering if anybody may have suggestions as to what's going on, as this exact situation appears not to be covered in any of TCS litter-problems articles. I'm having severe litter-pan problems with one (possibly both, although I've caught only one doing it) of my new, fourteen-week-old female...

Just curious as to whether anybody else has encountered this, as, thus far, nothing appears to be having any effect: indeed, I suspect the problem is growing worse.. As some who read Crossing the Bridge may be aware, my little girl, Kîa, vanished without trace four months ago: Farewell, my...

Hoping somebody may have an idea. :) Quite simply, I'm looking for an I.D. tag (or holder) that attaches length-wise along a collar (i.e., by threading the collar length-wise through the holder), and is made of a soft, flexible material with an insert to hold a tag. Reason: our local council...

Probably not the perfect place to post this, but as it relates to my planning for two new kittens… Having lost my poor little girl two months ago under tragic circumstances (Farewell, my little one; Kîa: 2012-10-21…2015-04-21), I'm determined this time to ensure (as much reasonably as is...

This is something that everybody hopes never they will have to write. Never should it have to be written so soon. It had been many years since the death of my last cat in late '98. But being at last on my own and with no other responsibilities, I decided in early December 2012, that it was...

Just wondering as to whether anybody else has had happen something like this? For some completely inexplicable reason, Kîa seems to be becoming increasingly irrationally frightened of her monthly flea/worm treatment (Advocate: applied to the back of the neck). She was perfectly fine with it...

Just wondering as to whether anybody has had any experience with the following cat products: i.Life Cat Trees & Scratching Posts | Wayfair Australia In particular, I'm looking at the 185cm tree (I'd have preferred the 244cm, but unfortunately, unless I want a nice big hole in the ceiling, it's...

Just curious as to whether anybody has any idea how to get around this one. After having problems with the default editor, both with Firefox and the dreaded Internet Exploder, I've switched to the BBCode Editor. All is tremendously better and more stable, save for one small problem. I cannot...

All right; a little problem for which I'm hoping there might be a suggestion or two. My two, Kîa and Nimrod (pictures stil pending; waiting for delivery of a new camera ;) ), have a little quirk. Basically, at just over two years of age, they'll no longer eat wet food, of any kind. when I got...

I've pretty-much given up, but perhaps somebody here might have some ideas? Very simply, I'm looking for cat-toys designed specifically to be played with simultaneously by two cats. My two (brother and sister) get along tremendously well, and seem to have a particular fascination with grabbing...

Greetings all, :) I had intended to wait until I had some pictures to post with this. Unfortunately, I don't have a working camera at present, and some kitten pictures we took have never found their way here from my sister's phone. Ah well… :) I'll try to get some up as soon as possible...
