This is really really long.  I'm sorry.  If anyone else has ideas, I'll
listen.  I'm really trying to put off going the drug route, but I'm
don't know what else to do.
Candace,

This is about the cat in the thread, 'fearful mother-to-be'.
I'm beginning to wonder if the cat really is pregnant.  She
has been in a bedroom for 8 days now, and I still haven't
seen her walking around; so I can't see whether her belly

3 years ago Walter (sig.other) trapped 3 kittens where he works. They
had not been handled by humans until then. The vet said they were about
10 wks old.
We had all of them for 3 weeks as they got their shots, worming, etc. We

We had Louis happily using all our cat boxes, and not peeing on doors.
My son's girlfriend has come to live with us, and he made one spray on
the original site (front closet door), but otherwise calmed down.
Then my mother-in-law came to visit, and we went from a 3-person

My 4 y.o. Buddha has a very slight case of gingivitis on his 2 back
molars.  Vet says he'll need his teeth cleaned within the next 6 months
to the tune of $150-200 with general anesthesia.  Would love to avoid
the danger of putting a small animal under (and wouldn't mind a ...

Harriet, one of our two store cats, is spending the night (at least) in
the hospital.  Last week I noticed that she was going back & forth
between litterboxes, and it would take several tries over a couple of
hours before she produced anything (solid).  She also pooped twice

Thanks for all the input on my previous post. I did take Pepper to the vet
and they put her on the Hill's z/d - low allergen.
But....I noticed today that my other cat has diarrhea also. This happened six
months ago (both had it) and that is when the vet put them on panacure (for

Earlier this summer, I had a problem of misplaced aggression with my 2
cats, Sukey and Riley. I posted here about it, got good advice for
reintroducing, and seemed to have solved the problem. After
reintroduction, we had a month of normal, peaceful life.

My cat is 14 months old.  Just this week he has started to lick his crotch
region more than usual.  From there it got worse and he now claws in that
area, as if he has an itch.  He was neutered near birth, and this is the
first time I have ever even seen his penis.  I can't tell ...

I just read on the ASGPL newsgroup that Noon Cat Nick, who has posted here,
lost one of his cats, Bijou, on Thursday.  I am sitting here
crying because in the last 4-1/2 years that I lost 3 cats (and a husband),
Nick has always been there with an encouraging word and

Does anyone recommend a good book on cat behavior? I'd like to send one
to the person who has the cat that has reverted to semi-feral status.
She needs to know more about how they think, how to feel comfortable
with a terrified cat, etc.

My cats generally are pretty picky eaters, but they both love those
Temptations, at least the ones in the yellow bag. I think they're
chicken flavored. It goes beyond love with Espy. He has me trained and
gets this look if I don't provide them several times a day. His eyes

My cat suddenly started going to the bathroom all over my house. At first I
though it was because I wasn't home as often and she was trying to tell me
that she missed me, but even when I am home she does it. Not just pee
either. I'm at a loss, I don't know what to do. I don't ...

...anyone who can "out" me.  Who am I, what's my address, any other
goodies or deep, dark secrets about *me.*
See, I want it to be ALL ABOUT ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you privately email me with the correct info, I will send you a nice
