Hey all! So I have a new cat. Shes much older than my other two at 10 years old, and since she didn't grow up with me we both have habits to get used to. One of her bad habits is biting. Whenever I let her, about 9 times out of 10, she bites me. At first I thought it was because she was...

I will be leaving in about 4 months.

Hey all! So I have the amazing opportunity to go to China for 15 months, and I am freaking out about what to do with my cats. Should i take them with me? The thought of leaving them for a year kills me, but I'm not sure that taking them on a 35 hour flight is the best option either. I know Nora...

I'm allowing the cats to spend quite a bit of time together. Freya and Zelda are fairly indifferent towards Nora, but she's still skittish towards them. She crept up on Freya while she was sleeping to sniff at her, and freaked when she was caught. Freya was mostly just confused. Also, she came...

Still want to keep you guys updated on her progress! Nora is doing great. She has become quite affectionate with me. I did discover quite by accident that she does NOT like her paws being touched. She was next to me while I was laying down, and I just sort of let my hand rest and it touched her...

Update: She has progressed with me a bit. She still keeps herself generally confined to the corner of the room, but she played with a wand toy with me, and in the morning when my alarm went off she jumped on the bed meowing and headhunting me.

Unfortubately, they're not. She belonged to my boyfriends sister, who got her from a shelter. His sister never got really attached to her, and she ended up moving to a place that doesn't allow animals, which is how I got her. Which I'm sure is adding to the fear, being moved from shelter to new...

Thanks for replying! I'm just anxious because my other two are the only other cats I've ever owned, so I'm a little unsure how to handle the fear/aggression towards me!

Hello all! It's been quiet in my house, so it's been awhile since I posted. I unexpectedly agreed to take in a new cat, and I'm looking for advice. Shes an older cat, at 10 years, while mine are both about 2 years old. I just got her today, but I'm worried she won't mesh with the household. Not...

Hi! I'm in the apartment now... with just 2 cats. It ended up not being an issue because my parents and I decided that my dog should live with him. I'm a college student who works part time, and without roommates he would be alone too much for it to be fair to him. The landlord has been great...

I went to a restaurant tonight, and hunkered down among the cars was a small, shivering stray cat. I went to the nearest store to get it some food. It ate the food, but was too skittish to let me touch it. I ended up giving up, but can't stop thinking about it. I'm thinking of going back to see...

I typically get an oral treatment from my vet, it works great!

So I just moved into an apartment a few weeks ago. Haven't had any problems with fleas in over a year. I noticed Freya had been scratching a bit lately, but haven't actually seen anything on her. Buy just now I was sitting on my couch, looked down, and saw a flea on my arm. I've had a flea...

Freya decided to do something she Has NEVER done before- she bolted out the front door as I was coming in, which I only notices because my door hit something as it closed. I drop all my things and fling open the door, certain I'm going to have to corner this monster, only to find her crouched...

I recently moved to a second floor apartment with a balcony. The cats have recently been showing interest in the balcony, but I'm too freaked to let them out on it. One of my co-workers has criticized me for not letting my cats outside, but I just worry about what can happen. But her pestering...

Nomi like nom nom or baby nom noms, lol. And we terminated the pregnancy; she did really well with it.

We terminated.
