    Cat Jumps on Leg, scratches us

    I'm glad to hear the "no" and stomping are working!! For us they didn't work, which is why we used the spray bottle when she attacked us. If other methods of establishing rules work, by all means, use them first. For what it is worth, our cat is not afraid of us, and no other way worked to...

    Pregnant and DESPERATE! Cat urinating on new couch!

    Have you tried Feliway? I've never had cat urination problems, but I have used feliway to help my kitties adjust and it markets itself by helping owners with the exact same problem you have. Feliway is totally safe (and kind of magic) - it's basically synthetic cat pheromones that the cat...

    Calories vs company recommendations

    Okay, so I'm not crazy? I'm just a little flabbergasted that their recommendation is 3x what a cat should eat daily. It seemed a little absurd to me, so I was just wondering if there was something I ought to know that could make up for the discrepancy.

    Calories vs company recommendations

    Hello all - I'm a brand new first time cat owner as of yesterday... a long time in the making. We're on a budget but I want to feed her as well as I can within the budget. We're thinking of doing a wet/dry combination... I'm thinking Orijen as dry food since it's very high quality and when I buy...
