Received this with other stuff in my mailbox today:
Eliminate ear mites... All it takes is a few drops of Wesson corn oil in
your cat's ear. Massage it in, then clean with a cotton ball. Repeat daily
for 3 days. The oil soothes the cat's skin, smothers the mites, and

Getting my cat's attention is our favorite trick. In the archives, I
see one mention of Nerf balls being used to play fetch. Has anyone
else messed around with Nerf balls as a toy or method to get your
cat's attention? Any experiences with Nerf balls or other Nerf

As you may recall - my husband and I adopted kitkat 2 weeks ago.  He
was rescued from a abusive home.  He is doing really well - basically
roams the house - but will still not come into the family room if we
are in there. He will only allow me to pet him or play with him in his

One of my cats, MAGI, was diagnosed by the vet today as having a
"slight heart murmur".
She was there to be checked over as she was in the end phases of
having a 'cat cold'.

My cat likes to lick my hair. When I'm lying in bed, he curls up against my
head and starts licking my hair - like he's grooming it. I've seen cats do
this to other cats, but this is the first interspecies grooming incident
I've heard of. What is the meaning of this? Is he being ...

Any tips for a constipated elderly cat, he has gone off the liquid
paraffin drops. He wont drink milk.

Is Science Diet better than all other brands? There were some catty posts
regarding that. Don't want to start another fight..Cat has not been eating
well, so I bought Nutro Gourmet dry - hopefully he'll like that.
He just ignored Iams Original - it might as well have been sand.

After Icarus' bout with a UTI, I decided to change to a food that all the
cats can eat. Does anyone know of a relatively decent dry food at a good
price which actually has meat in it? I checked out Maxximum which has
chicken in it along with the normal ingredients that a lot of ...

Okay so Oscar was a stray that my clinic took in 4 weeks ago, and now he has
been at our new house for a week.
During his stay at the vet, he has had THREE fecal flotations done, all of
which came up negative.

Friday night she was in a lot of pain, purring *really* loudly and
trembling, and then crying in the middle of the night, even giving her the
pain pills every 6 hours.  So we picked up some stronger pain medication
yesterday morning, Buprenorphine HCI, which is given sublingually ...

I am pleased to report that I was able to give my cat two tape worm pills,
without it being a traumatic experience for either of us!  Never had a cat,
until three years ago when I got this guy.

Which is sort of strange.  The only other "people" food Meep will even
consider touching is parmesan cheese (and tuna.  But not chicken or any
other meat).  And now peanut butter.  To the point that a few minutes
after offering a taste, she was caught stalking the remains of the

I have a male cat, Speedy, about 4 1/2 years old. He deveoped a flea
bite allergy about 1 1/2 years ago. The sratching and overgrooming left
bald areas on his legs and under his tail.
Vet gave Speedy an injection of a steroid for the itching and said to

I'm a wreck, I'm a total wreck!  My hands are shaking so badly that when I
was getting a saucer down to give Bandit some mineral oil in tuna water, as
per doctor's instructions for the constipation, I dropped it - shattered
it - and cut up my finger all to h*ll!

I don't mean all the hair.
Is there a commercial cat bed that helps remove loose cat hair?
Do you know of a home made device?
What is the most likely fabric, mat, pillow, or whatever resting place
