Correction, a home, not a pet...
I have a kitty that needs a home, soon!  :)
Okay, kitty description:
Nice, 4 years old, black long-haired cat, named Mashke (pronounced Mosh-ka).

My cat frequently claws at the stair carpet, fraying it at either side.   He
seems uninterested in anything else we give him to claw at.

be sprayed on the stairs to stop it.

I see a few newsgroups for cats in the list of groups.

I see rec.pets.cats and alt.pets.cats

We have 5 cats--two females who are 19 and 5 and 3 1-year old

I need some expert advice re travelling with my cat.  She is almost five,

I have an F3 female Bengal I am placing for a friend.  The owner is in the
military and had to move and I offered to list her online to see if anyone

I have a cat just about 1 year old and she always hisses at my dog.  But
lately if she is sitting with me and the dog comes by she will hiss at me
for petting her and then put her teeth around me like she wants to bite me.
She never chomps down at all but I want her to know that ...

I posted a few days ago about "My First Kitten".
I still can't come up with anything better than "Kitty" for a name, but
it works for me and it seems to work for her.
I took her to the vet the day I found her, but I'm a major

I adopted a 4 month old cat at the SPCA 3 months ago. The first 2 or 3
weeks I had no idea how to feed a cat. The little fellow had a ferocious
appetite. I then red the feeding instructions on the packages of cat

bad?  Thanks
