He understands the idea of hunting, he is just too fat to be stealthy. And lazy. Endlessly lazy.

Thanks, but we don't want her to be an indoor cat. She is miserable inside, will refuse to eat and just be generally depressed. She will stay in for longer times during the winter, but she always ends up back outside

So my dear, wonderful Jade has decided that if Sparky won't go outside and learn to hunt, she will bring the hunt inside to him. In the last 8 months since it started she has brought in: 2 live but injured field mice that were both caught and released 4 crickets 2 got eaten 2 got played with...

Thank you both! What kind of corrective behavior should I be aware of? Jade is mama cat to sparky, I kinda hoped she would take on a mother role to Pumpkin, but I think she has decided she is done baby raising. Sparky is a staunch supporter of the "outside is a cold and lonely place and we...

We adopted a 10 week old kitten, Pumpkin Spice. We have had her about 3 days now. She seems to mostly be adjusting well. Eating drinking and using the litter box. Our 3 year old cat Jade (queen of the castle) has no interest in her one way or another. Our 1 year old Sparky initially did not...

Well, I think it's 2 weeks post op. Her incision is well healed, and her heat cycle only lasted a few more days. She still loves going outside and was very excited to go out for the first time. She has also still been more affectionate then before surgery, but less then right after. She will...

I have 2 cats. Jade (mama) and Sparky (offspring). Jade is 2 days post spay. When we got her back from the clinic, they informed me she is in heat. (Sparky is fixed and Jade is staying indoors for the next at least 8 days while she heals so some Tom doesn't hurt her) first part of my question is...

So after the last few days worrying about my male being mean to the kittens it looks like it's mama I need to be worried about. This is her third litter, and she hasn't been spending much time in the room with her babies. If one of us go Into the room she will go in there and check on them. But...

So mama was a barn cat before we got her, and has always been almost silent when giving birth. This time was no different. Sometime last night she gave birth to 4 kittens in my son's closet. We only knew because she woke us up because her food bowl was empty, and we noticed she was no longer...

Since he got fixed he has become increasingly less aggressive with her. He used to fight with her constantly and was going so far as to restrict her access to her own food and water. Now he seems to not really care one way or the other about her, and generally leaves her alone. He has also...

We finally got our male cat fixed and I am getting our very pregnant female fixed 10 weeks after she gives birth (per our vets advice). My question is, there is a very real possibility that she will give birth while we are not home, as we run a business. I know before he was fixed I was told I...

She was a barn cat before we got her, and so she tends to hide when she gives birth. With the last litter I only knew she was delivering bc I woke up to go pee and heard her kittens cry. Also, why should I limit her to 4 placentas? I have never heard this before and didn't stop her last time?!

Jade is an escape artist of the worst kind. She jumped out the door and got herself pregnant again. She has been disappearing for days at a time, im half tempted to put a gopro on her and see where she goes. Lol. I'm actually concerned about 2 things. 1) we have an intact male. He is a product...

You guys have been amazimg on helping me so I'm here again. Sparky is a mostly white cat so I'm never sure what is normal and what isn't. My son noticed tonight that he has pink around his eye. Any ideas? If it's pink eye can it be treated at home? Pic attached

I have not been able to yet but they are both getting done in January

Thank you so much! I was worried he was getting sick! He has lots of access to food and water, so that's no issue. As for the nursing I wasn't sure if comfort nursing was something she would do, given his age.

So jade finally kicked sparky (formerly inky) off the boob. He is 4 months old now. We just noticed today that both of them slept all day, neither of them are much and jade is letting sparky "nurse". I also noticed sparky looking thin, but maybe a little longer body, I don't know if he is...

I am horrible about keeping up on this. He is from a litter of 8, but we rehomed his siblings. The biting has gotten a little better. He will still do it on occasion but has learned that if we move him away from us then biting is not ok and he has to stop. I have tried the put whatever body part...

I have mama cat jade and her 12 week old baby boy inky. Inky is a biter, and I have no idea how to stop it. I have sprayed him with water, moved him away, locked him in another room for a few minutes, and numerous other things. We can just be sitting on the couch watching tv and he will jump up...

No? I did not know I needed to? We didn't with her first litter either and they were fine.
