I would bet that he will gradually get use to the litter box - hard to say what life was like before you took him in. I have 3 cats and occasionally one will...
hi, i'm new to the list but thought i'd share my experience... i had a male, around 3-5 years old then, that i adopted after he was abandoned at an apt....
hi! I was searching for an online group where I could discuss cat behavior and found this one! I just adopted a 5 year old long haired boy named Bodhi from the...
Give him some time to adjust. I have 3 cats (and 2 litter boxes) and when the one female feels harrassed by the kitten, she pees right next to the box - and...
hi all - I guess this list is pretty quiet! Caroline, thanks for your response. I have decided to give my new cat some time to adjust. I got him a second box...
again, give him time. I've not heard of a cat poopin' outside the box - since they are so clean. Maybe he thinks he's outside and can just go anywhere. If...
He's got lots of little spots he likes to sleep, so moving the bed is no big deal. Yeah, I guess I have to give him time... It just upsets me. Thanks for your...
... I'm new to this list too , and I think you are right that it's not so active. Have you tried putting him gently in the box and moving his paws in a...
hi! Thanks for the response! Yes, I really wanted to get an older cat. I have a soft spot for them. I'm sorry to hear about your stray, the peer. Have you ever...
... I haven't heard of that, but I'll check it out. I'm willing to try anything! He's ok right now ... it seems like some stressful event sets him off (this...
Hi Charlee and everyone, I am about at my wits end. My cat peed on my bed yesterday, right up by the pillows and also pooped in the bedroom. I just dont' know...
Andrea ... it looks like you and I are the only people on this list !!! My problem child Winkie ... yes, he has peed on my bed SO MANY TIMES. When we first...
Andrea - i volunteer for the cat behavior department at the SF/SPCA and I have some information I can send you about inappropriate litter box/elimination...
... Can you send them to me too? If you've been reading my replies, you have seen that my problems with peeing are far from over!!! Thanks!! Charlee...
What have you done to deodorize the bed and the other places the cat has peed. There are enzymatic products at the pet store that remove the small so the cat...
... the cat has ... Can you recommend a specific brand? I tried something called "Dumb Cat" that was enzyme based, and it didn't work at all ... just masked...
Andrea, Please don't give up on your adoptee! I have had the same problems with a couple different cats that I acquired as strays. Did you rule out physical...

I can't remember the name and I'm emailing from work, so can't get to the bottle. I went to PETCO and asked one of the clerks who knew what she was talking...
Andrea, I found another list that seems to be large and active. I'm cutting and pasting this info I found there ... I don't think the person who posted would...
Hi, I'm new to the group. I have 5 cats. My 5th I got 2 weeks ago from rescue and is 5 year old tabby, himmi mix. She was spayed 2 weeks before I got her....
This list is not at all active, as you can see by the date of the last post, which was mine!!! So don't be discouraged if you don't get any replys. There is...
I would say give her more time. My first cat had been abandoned at 3 weeks old and after even 6 weeks with the woman I got him from, he was skittish and ran...
RE: [CatBehavioristIsabel] hiding catThat's good to hear. Most of my cats are rescues and my bengal took more time to adapt. I guess the older they are the...
Hi, it sounds like you might want to give her a little more time with a room to herself. She may be scared of the other cats and that may be why she didn't...
I have been living for 2 years now in an apartment complex that has a lot of stray cats and cats that were left homeless. A lot of people around here do feed...
Karen, first i would find out if your town shelter or SPCA offers a feral spay/neuter & return service. Here in SF, you can rent traps, trap cats, get them...
We have a feral male cat (Carlos) that is about 7-8 months old; this cat was neutered about one month ago. He's a bit agressive but we've never had a problem...
... to play ... I had a female cat, spayed. Then took in a male stray, neutered. They seemed to get along fine. Then one day I came home, walked in the...
