Soo, from the onset, when you first bring a pet home...
suppose that pet raises up on you, what do you do

What is the normal temp of a kitten?  The little fellow I just found feels
very warm to me.  He's not coughing or wheezing and his eyes look pretty
clear.  If there is a fever, what do you think is the most likely cause.
He'll be going to the vet as soon as I get a recommendation ...

I have a bowl of dry cat food in our backyard, for our "outside" cats,
and it is often over-run by flies; is there any way to get rid of 'em
(the flies) ?
Thanks,

I went with my g/f to see a whole bunch of kittens (from three mom's, all
same residence!) and decided on this little feller:

Kami is always with me, even when she's not.  I've had only a couple of
people have allergy symptoms when they were around me after I had been
with the cat.  Has anyone else had this experience.
What made me think of this was a recent episode.  Since I'm back out in

Hi- My sweet little Calico, Cali is getting along better with Randi, etc.
but she has the WEIRDEST habit!!  She has slept with me every night since I
adopted her about a month ago, but she lays on my pillow around my head and
licks my hair!!!  Like ALOT!  I keep pushing her away ...

There has to be some material cats can use for indoor climbing
besides carpet or Sissel rope. Maybe something that also can be
attached to a 2 x 4. Maybe some sort of plastic grating (yes, of
course it will have to be safe). Next time I go to the hardware

My PSS cat Ana had surgery yesterday, she swallowed a piece of plastic (see
Scary episode and the update).
She is on Bupronex for pain, which she received 3 doses at 0.2 ml today.
She weighs 10 lbs.  I am concerned about how her liver is processing this,

And Mary took me in.
She showed a genuine interest in my cat Ruprecht, and we talked about
Ruprechts diet ~ she was a lawyer in my court room, and a doctor in my
sick room (laughter does good like medicine)

How do cats typically react to harnesses. Never thought about it, but have
seen posts about here. Do they try to run away, walk in circles, run from
side to side..I can't imagine them walking in a straight line like a
dog..Just wondering now that the weather is getting warmer, I ...

I was walking Tiger around the neighborhood a couple nights ago. He
loves this - and until a year or so ago we couldn't find a leash he
would endure. He would spit and fight and finally hide any time we
tried to get a collar on him.

My cat Ana started throwing up two days ago.  Yesterday, I wasn't home much
of the day, but when I came home, she seemed fine.  Soon after I gave her
her evening dose of medicine, she threw up twice, clear liquid.  This
morning, there was more liquid vomit and she seemed ...

Ana is now home from the vet.  When I called this morning to check on her,
she wasn't eating, but I was told she was OK to go home this afternoon.  I
came to pick her up, and the desk person told me the doctor wants her to
stay over the weekend.  I wasn't happy about this, and I ...

I saw a commercial once on TV -- digitally edited safari footage that
showed a tiny cat stalking and hunting a big game animal.  It was an
ad for some kind of cat food I think, with a tag line to the effect
