We recently rented a house that was just finished being remodeled.  The
hardwood floors are uncovered and there is a beautiful smooth tiling through
the rest of the house, including the utility room.  We decided to keep the
litter box in there and also to feed them in that same room ...

My 4-year old male cat has a mysterious habit.  Every once in a while
he'll start meowing incessantly as he carries this long furry cat toy
throughout the house.  The cat toy is one of those whip kind of toys,
resembling a fuzzy 3' piece of material attached to a stick like a

Well, just got back from the vet, 10pm on a Saturday night.  Meep was
chokeing, or something like it, so I called, and went.  Guess that's why
I pay through the nose for this vet (they're REALLY expensive - £80 for
the visit + shot) - quick service, and a wonderful vet.  I'm ...

Your advice on trapping and neutering the tomcat is on the right
track. It feels almost right. The one thing that bothers me is that

Just hope some cat lovers out there can give me any insight as to what
to do, or what to expect from this situation:
We got "Boz" from the shelter in March.  He's a long-haired neutered
male, that was 1 year old when we got him.  When he first got home, he

Just a query to everyone regarding how widely this is available in your
country. Here, the distributors will only distribute it through vets. What's
the situation in your country - can you get it in pet shops?

I have to pill one of my cats twice a day, two-halves of two different pills
each time. (I plan to look into flavored liquids etc. that Phil has
mentioned, but have not done it yet. My regular pharmacy does not have these
things, I have at least checked that.) Most times, she really ...

I set the food dish and nanny cam in the Pet Porter and tied a cord to
the gate, which I then fed through the crack in the bathroom door.
That way I could observe when the cat entered the porter and pull the
gate shut from outside the room.  It took some patience, but it

It is hard to believe, but our sweet Amaretto is now 14 as of Friday.
He has had diabetes for almost 7 years. His blood sugar is stable and
the vet says his fructosamene test is right on line! We home test his
blood sugar twice a day and do a curve on him at home once a mont.,

My fat cat Buddha has been on a canned-food only
diet, with gradual, small reductions in the amount I feed her when she hits
a plateau. She is losing weight slowly and safely.
However, this cat is a real character, and very expressive, and she

My 8 year old male cat was blocked when I woke up this morning. A trip to
the emergency vet later, we got an estimate of between $1250 and $1650 to
unblock him (with anesthesia), catheterize him, 2 overnights in the
hospital, antibiotics, and an analysis of his urine to determine ...

Everything seemed fine, until a little after dinner Missy cat ran
under the bed and won't come out.  She growls at my other cat, Mr
Spock (normal), but she is also growling at me, which she's never done
before.  It's a low long growl like I've never heard from her before.

Hi Folks, I adopted a two year old male this Monday (yesterday) and he
is a friendly outgoing cat. He was fine all day yesterday and very
active, even tho I had him quarantined to my room. About two hours
after he came home, I introduced him to my dog...the two hit it right

My cat has a little dark brown bump where his eyelid is.  It's not near the
tearduct and doesn't cause any pain.   It's very hard to see, as it's
practically buried in his fur.
Has anyone ever heard of this before?
