    Need Advice Asap On Saving Kitten With Pneumonia

    Oh no, I'm so sorry. That's such a heartbreaking outcome. It sounds like you tried your absolute best to help her, and even as she was struggling I'm sure your constant presence was a warm comfort to her. Hang in there, take care of yourself, and know you gave little Bitsy a life full of love...

    Stomatitis , Metacam, full mouth extraction

    My cat Luke just had this procedure done a few months ago. It was $1200 for us, but that was also with a discount (happened to need this done during the right month lol) and he was already missing about half his teeth by that point. The procedure itself took around 2 hours and they ended up...

    Does you cat like belly rubs?

    Lucien doesn't like belly rubs (I get warning bites and kicks if I try), but Luke LOVES them. I might be the only one who's allowed to do it though. No one else has tried.

    Monday's Question of the Day - February 8, 2016

    I actually haven't been to any malls out here yet, but when I'd go to the mall in Vegas I'd usually either get Auntie Anne's or a teriyaki chicken plate from Hibachi-san. I'm pretty sad there's no Hibachi-san in Ohio. ;__;

    question

    One of mine does this too. He figured out the fridge is where the food is, so sometimes when I open it he runs over to stick his head in and look for food, the monster. He also is fascinated by flushing toilets, so he tries to follow me in just so he can sit by the toilet as it flushes.  My...

    Question of the Day, Friday, January 29

    I'm almost always on a chromebook, though I'll occasionally use my phone and will rarely use my laptop. (The poor thing's really slow now and needs to rest after a few years of being dragged to college.)

    Kitten won't use scratcher

    Personal experience story time! My cat Luke used his vertical cardboard scratcher maybe twice during the first week I had him, and then proceeded to scratch the carpet all over the house every time and ignore the scratcher entirely. I eventually put a bunch of cardboard refills in all the spots...

    President Obama is is my town

    Obama came to Vegas a lot when I still lived there. He gave a speech at my high school during my senior year and several of my friends attended. I'd love to meet him one-on-one, but I'm way too restless to sit and listen to a speech. (Especially on those bleachers. No thanks.)

    Amazon Prime

    It's really only worth it if you intend to shop on Amazon a lot. That two day shipping is super nice. Prime Video has the worst layout in the world, but it's a pretty nice bonus (especially if you're not already subscribed to a different streaming service). I'd say if you intend to shop there at...

    Are cats unappreciated pets?

    There's no "crazy dog lady" stigma. If I tell someone I love dogs the usual response is "me too!" But telling someone I love cats is more likely to make them think I'm some weird loser who lives by herself and knits cat sweaters in her free time. (That's sweaters with cats on them AND sweaters...

    Question of the Day, Sunday, December 6, 2015

    I spent most of my life in Vegas where the weather was Hot and Terrible Death 95% of the time, so any weather other than that is pretty nice to me. I love how peaceful and beautiful snow is, and how calming the sound of rain is. It's been foggy here the past two days and I love how eerie and...

    What does your cat mean to you?

    Here's Luke! I love both of my cats very much, but Luke is my absolute best friend. I picked him out of the 20 or so cats I saw at the shelter because he wouldn't stop rubbing himself against my legs, and I was the very first person he trusted when my boyfriend and I brought him home. He was...

    Will my cat miss me/feel abandoned? Not sure where to post this.

    As a fellow asthmatic I totally feel for your (soon-to-be) husband. I'm lucky enough that mine's far better now than it used to be and I can live with two cats mostly okay, but man I feel bad for the guy. That's rough. This isn't really gonna help in the short term, but has he gotten allergy...

    First time feral mom

    Absolutely! You just need to give her time and be kind and patient. She's understandably very upset right now because she's trapped in an unfamiliar place and can't get out. Once she realizes she's safe and this is a good place where she won't be hurt, she'll probably go right back to her old...

    Monday's Question of the Day - October 12, 2015

    I got my first cat in February of this year, so less than a month before I turned 23. My dad violently hated cats, so even though I always wanted one I was never able to adopt a kitty until I moved out. Sometimes my friends would ask me to come over and I'd be more excited to pet their cats than...

    Question of the Day, Saturday, October 10th

    Luke absolutely loves the laser pointer. If he even hears me pick it up he runs right over with his eyes wide and waits for me to use it. Lucien is obsessed with this big stuffed white rat filled with catnip. He tried to rip it out of the bag when I first brought it home, and he loves tackling...

    United States for me too. I'm very unoriginal.
