Dang Greg is majestic. Beautiful coat pattern and well-groomed!

Kiss me, Scarlet!

My cat chirps while rolling over to greet me when I come home or open my bedroom door in the morning. It's so cute I have to pet him, for us it means "Welcome Home! Pets Plz!"

Same problem another poster had recently when the kitten is separated from the litter too young. 12 weeks is the ideal time - mom and siblings will have taught the little one when their play has gotten too out of hand. Be gentle, but firm and authoritative in your "no"s and briefly remove...

Did you change anything about your appearance and/or scent? New haircut? Shampoo/Perfume? I have seen cats not recognize owners on even small, weird things, and some cats see past some changes others can't. You say the cat is healthy, but have you taken her to a vet since she started acting...

You can't punish a cat because it doesn't have the social motivation of a dog or person. They don't get the why. Case in point. One time when sleeping in my parent's basement, my alarm went off and I woke up to seeing my cat trying to climb up inside the dropdown ceiling. In my grogginess and...

LOL I think this is pretty common. Cats love exploring. You can find tools to keep them shut tho in any big box store - just get the same things they use to keep babies out. Just be happy yours hasn't learned how to turn on the sink yet...mine has...guess how i found out... :thud:

He's very good at picking up when I'm stressed - and always does the same thing. Normally, he demands in the lap completely or on my head/shoulders. But when I'm stressed he just always rests his upper body on my and looks right into my eyes and purrs.

Sam licks the bold spot on the top of my head...no hair equals no protection, but my scalp is still obviously very sensitive to the sandpaper! He licks my HAIR when I'm awake, but my bald spot to get me awake. But he likes to pretend he didn't do anything. The instant I stir he jumps off the bed...

When you're going crazy because your apartment's a mess as you try to move, you've been sick for 3 days, and your going crazy because your boss is texting you at 8PM because he can't be bothered to search for an email, then, when you send it to him, he texts you again to ask that you forward it...

Cats are territorial. That means, when they aren't in their own territory, they assume they are in someone else's. Cats also have more sensitive hearing and smell than we do, and are very quick to notice small movements that we see, but don't register. My guess is he is seeing/smelling/hearing...

Maybe the bustle gives them something to focus on besides each other? It's like kids at school. Even kids that hate each other will tolerate the other's presence if they are on a field trip or class party. But leaving them alone with nothing to do guarantees a fight. Maybe if they are given...

You could place stuff on the floor that he doesn't like so he can't get to the wall. They sell pads that deter cats, but for this much space, you may want to see if you could come up with a home remedy. Trick would be to create a tactile feeling he doesn't like and place it around the perimeter.

that is persistent! You have either got to make that balcony safe or break the whining. But to break the meowing, you might have to take away the balcony time for a while. Cats don't continue what doesn't work. If he is meowing for that long he believes THAT is what gets him out, not the...

Thanks, jcat. I didn't realize they made monitor mounts. I didn't get the one you listed but it set me going in the right direction.

I agree with Letta, that cat was taken away from the litter very young. What you are experiencing isn't active aggression, but play. At 9 weeks, your kitten hasn't even quite finished developing his vision! (they don't open their eyes for the first week, and their eyes don't fully develop until...

As susanm9006 said, definitely get it checked with a vet at this age. If there are no health problems, and he is going in your bedroom, maybe get his litterbox close (not in - i couldn't stand my cat's litterbox in my bedroom!) to your room? I'm guessing he is going in your room because he...

You really might want to go with it. My cat loves watching me play games on my computer. When he first started doing this, he was fascinated by it. He would go up to the monitor, watch the things moving on the screen, then look behind the monitor, repeat like 5x. He was so amazed that the...

I know you've probably read this a lot...but it really does depend on the cat! Some tips though: Get a male. If there are only two cats, opposite genders tend to do better. Get a grown cat whose personality is established and is known to not be dominant or aggressive - this has multiple...

Depends on the cat. Sam (in my profile pic), has moved with me twice, but he is super friendly and loves exploring and new people. My previous cat, Belle, hated moving, but also was never much of a people cat to begin with. Since your cat doesn't like the other cat currently living with it, but...
