I noticed Nipsy (3 yo long hair) pulling himself across the wood floor
with his front legs and I started to panic thinking that his rear legs
were paralyzed. I was already mentally driving to the emergency vet.
Then as I got up, so did he, and proceeded to walk across the floor

We are all in quest of true happiness.  In this world, the idea of
true/perfect happiness is not feasible because this world is
inevitably doomed to total annihilation.  True happiness is found only
in dwelling upon Paradise, and enjoying its blessings.  However, none

I have two indoors, active cats (ages 2 and 4 years) and am considering
adopting a third one. Has anyone tried integrating a deaf cat into a
household that already has cats? I am wondering if a deaf cat would be
disadvantaged in terms of being "hit upon" by the residents. The two ...

Has anyone heard of a Cat that like to play in his litter box?
At first it seemed as if the cat would play in the box everytime I
cleaned it. A few weeks ago I notice he would do this if it was not
clean, he would toss some litter around then lay down and reapeat the

I wonder why a neutered cat with a bit of arthritis in his rear leg
loves to stay out all night long in freezing weather.  What goes on
out there?  I live in an old surburban neighborhood in Philadelphia.
There is a high wall at the bottom of my garden separating it from a

I am planning on moving to the UK in about a year's time with my three
cats. The issue is that I live in Israel - a country not participating
in the PETS scheme which makes it possible for animals to bypass the
six month quarantine period. I spoke with a PETS representative and

Several questions, all help and advice gratefully received!
My 2nd 15yr old cat (George) was diagnosed last week with kidney
disease. Was taken in for dental op and I asked for blood/urine tests
to be done (just in case as other cat had been diagnosed incidentally)

I have a cat that's been on chemo and her kidney levels had been fine until
very recently.
They found an infection and suspect it's the culprit, but it has raised her
BUN level to 38 (normal range 14-36) and her Creatinine level to 3.3 (normal

The vet was just here to pick up my 17.5 year old Orange tabby, Daffy (so
named because he walked like Daffy Duck.)  Unfortunately, in recent
months, he had totally stopped using the litter box, for pooping and for
pishing.  I'm disabled and my mother is elderly, so we can't clean ...

OK, this is the health and behavior newsgroup, but these are pictures of the
only time Da Boyz behave!  Some of these are absolutely priceless!  (Click

We have an obviously well fed, friendly cat sitting directly outside
our sliding glass door wanting to come in. The problem is that he is
not our cat. We have 7 cats already and our house is full to the
maximum.

I just started using the litter crystals, and am looking for some
advice. While I am loving them overall, I've noticed a strange thing
happening which never used to happen with my previous litter. (Which
is Feline Pine.)

I have had my lovely tom cat from a kitten and he is now 3 years old.  I
have never owned a tom cat before and he is just so adoreable, but there is
a behaviour that he does religiously every single morning and wondered why
he does it.

Our cat Maxwell (aka:  Maximus or Maximillion) hasn't been with us all
that long. My friend offered him to us because one of her roommates
was not treating Max very well and she gave the cat to us because she
couldn't be home all the time to supervise.
