I have a semi-indoor cat. I want to make her an outdoor one so I don't
have to worry about her escaping through any of the many exits(patio
doors, conservatory, etc). I live in a cat-friendly neighbourhood but
my cat six months old has only been out on a liesh thrice a week on

I'm Mike, in a little place called Chalybeate Ky, near Mammoth Cave.
Although I do pay the mortgage here, there is a band of feline outlaws that
live here that won't let me forget who really runs the place.

My vet just sent out a notice about dental care and teeth cleaning. Do you
guys ever have your cat's teeth cleaned? I would imagine they can get
cavities just like us, no?
I've dropped a bundle on my teeth. I suppose I should have Isis' teeth

Quite often (and increasingly), when we are in a room with the cat
cubs shut out, Elijah scratches at the door until he's let in. Calling,
"Elijah! NO!" used to work for a few minutes, now it works for a second or
two. He never does it while there's anyone on the other side to ...

we have two cats which are about 1½ years old now, both with totally

I'm having a difficult time getting a clear cut answer out of my vet
as to what exactly is wrong with my cat, and what I should do.  Maybe

give me a clear cut answer.  So can you tell me bluntly what's up?

I need some feedback.  I took my cat to the vet last week for his check-up.
He is a very cute black and white--Romeo.   And he is a lover!  The vet
wants him back to clean his teeth.  Do you think that it's worth putting him
under sedation to do this??   What are others thoughts? ...

I have 2 cats who are both coming up on 15 years old.  The Vet has
