First I want to say that I have taken the cat to the vet. Bloodwork was done and returned normal. Cat is still eating plenty and acting himself for the most part. I have a 13 year old cat, Sable, who is really starting to worry me. He used to weigh 16 pounds at one point. Currently, he is 11...

I'm diving in head-long into breaking my cat(s) of spraying/peeing around the house. However, one of my big hurdles is that I'm starting to find places where he/they have peed/sprayed that I didn't realize were a target. I have hardwood floors, and some of the areas now have soaked up urine so...

I'm still dealing with issues with my youngest cat spraying. I had a question because of something that a behaviorist told me once. She said that they will sometimes spray when they cannot get somewhere, like in frustration or something. He does spray the doors that are closed where he wants...

Dear cat food companies, If I had my way, I would pass a law that requires you to list on the label in BOLD letters that your food contains fish. I have been looking for a new food for my 3 boys, and because of cystitis with one of them, I cannot use foods with fish for any length of time...

I am so frustrated and upset.. ready to just curl into a ball and give up.  Long story short: I've been fighting at least one cat, maybe 2, spraying around the house and occasionally peeing on things. Recently, I got a new bedroom suit and mattress set. I found out I had a high allergic...

Saturday, I had a lady named Ingrid from Fundamentally Feline come to my house to give me advice on the 3 boys and the struggles I've been having. Her insights were very eye opening!  First, she said that I was not feeding them enough. She advocates free-feeding canned food and giving dry in...

I'm almost at my wits end here.  My youngest cat, Calvin (neutered, just over 1 year old) is spraying all over the house. I've had to toss out several things that have been ruined from it. I'm constantly cleaning behind him (yes, enzymatic cleaners) and have Feliway diffusers through the house...

My 3 guys all have a URI. They are each affected differently. Bowie had runny, goopy eyes but they are clearing up with drops. Calvin, you wouldn't know is sick aside from a bit of sneezing.  Sable on the other hand.. poor guy is so wheezy and gurgly. They all got an antibiotic shot last...

Calvin has stopped spraying in almost every place. In just the past day or so, he has taken to spraying at the door going in to the garage again. As far as places go for him to spray, I am not too upset with this. I would like to curb all the spraying, however.  Does anyone know if there is a...

My saga continues between my 3 cats. Bowie, who is 9, is a very nervous cat, who does not stand up for himself. He needs some confidence building. I had one shelf I put up, but Calvin the bratty teenage kitten is regularly kicking him off the shelf and stealing it. When Bowie gets down and goes...

Side note: the "behavior" in this post is likely more dependent on my behavior as opposed to the cats. There is some work to be done with the cats, but I think much of it is on me. I'll try to keep this kind of short since I don't want to turn this into a therapy session.  I suffer from...

So, my kitten Calvin has taken to spraying sometimes. Mostly on the bookcase in my bedroom. I put tinfoil down along the base where he sprays, and he's still sprayed it. He also got a shot in at the bedframe railing the other day. Whenever he sprays, I clean it with Nature's Miracle as quickly...

Bowie is going to be 9 this month, so I'm looking to switch him over to a senior food. I currently feed everyone Wellness - Bowie and Sable get Complete Health, and Calvin gets the kitten. Wellness doesn't have a senior focused canned food, so I'm looking at others.  Top of my list is Blue...

Because the stress my cats have given me lately wasn't enough, now Bowie has to be having issues.  Saturday, everything seemed fine. He ate without a problem and seemed fine. Sunday, he didn't eat breakfast, then didn't eat dinner. Spent all day sleeping on a heat mat I got for them. He ate a...

Does anyone know if the multi cat refills work in the original diffusers? I have 3 diffusers and want to try the multi cat refill, but didn't know if I needed to get another diffuser. Sometimes I see a new shaped one, but other times I see the original "dome" shaped one.  If they fit the old...

In August, I adopted a new kitten. While I had been toying with the idea off and on for a while, bringing him home at that moment was a bit of an impulse. I knew there would need to be some adjustments with my two existing cats, but 2 months later I'm starting to worry about my older cat. Bowie...
