I am new to the group and cat ownership. I found a feral cat sat. about 4-5mos old. She is a tortie, very dark one I mean the colors. Her first vet visit is...
Hello ~ ~ I have a 9 month old neutered male orange kitty whom I adopted from my local shelter when he was 3 months. At the time I adopted him, I had two other...
Hi Debbie! You told us that the "problem" kitty was neutered, but you did not say whether the other two males are intact or not? It's important, because cats...
Yes, Linda, the other two are neutered as well. They were neutered before I brought orantekitty home. His initial behaviors were stunning. He blended right...
I had another thought last evening. It occurred to me, that since this kitten was picked up as a stray but was in obviously good shape, perhaps the kitten was...
If it were me and she were my cat, especially since she is just a kitten, I would keep her indoors. Maybe that is what she is telling you is she likes it...
Hi Deb, and All, ... I was about to say that :-). I think cats and other pets can be more "needy" if they've first experienced human kindness, but then lost ...
Hi, I'm new here and desperate. We've had Alley (calico for 14 yrs) and Boo (gray for 5 yrs), both females. They get along fine. Boo is definitely different,...

Hi There! ... Boo is a "pariah cat" in your group now, for some reason we may not ever be able to guess. Some of the things you're doing -- setting aside a...
Hi Maine, ... THIS is usually a signal that the stress (in this case, of being constantly on guard against "ambush") has created a physical urinary tract...
Hi Linda, Thanks for all the tips in both emails. We have a cat tree, but that seems to be Ernie's domain. The vet did find crystals in Boo's urine yesterday...
Hi Marilyn, You are welcome, if they can help Boo and company! I'm glad to hear that you had a vet exam for Boo. I kind of get the impression that Ernie's...
Hi Linda, Thanks for the tip on checking the tree, the way Ernie goes up it, I'd better do it quick. The medicine is helping Boo, she's moving around in the ...

Hi, My girlfriend has three cats. Her cat Bill is the one she's had the longest. Lately Bill has begun to pee on the floor instead of using the catboxes. My...
Hi, I have 1 male cat and he has stopped using the litter box. He had stopped one time before and now he won't start back. He is also terrified to walk on the...
Can you put the litter box on some thing higher? One solution that we use is to put the cat in a cage with food, water, and the litter box, but with no...
Background: I have two cats one male and one female. Both are fixed. I adopted my female when she turned 1 and my male when he was 16 weeks old. The female...
Hi all, Here's the long story in short. Two and a half years ago I adopted 2 little feral girls about 8 weeks old. A friend found the mamma and litter in a...
