Our 13 year old, large but overweight cat has increased her water intake and
consequent urine production of late.  She is healthy and in good spirits and
other than that, no different than ever (other than the inevitable slowing
down that comes with age.)  Haven't called the vet ...

I always had a cat from as far back as I can remember, till I went to
university. After that I had no pets for many years, then I had a dog for 18
years. I had to put the dog down recently, and my present situation will not
allow me to properly care for a dog.

I just got two male kittens only 10 wks old,  and they are very vocal
with each other.  I hear them make the usual cat purrs and meows, but I
also have heard them making a rolling chirpping sound or something close
to that. I would appreciate any feedback on this type of noise,  and

so after all of 19 hours of having my littermaid at home, this thing
is going back to the store.  don't buy one of these.  what a piece of
sh.t.  mine is already broken.  you see, when you first get this thing
home, you will think it is so cool because it does all this scooping

I was wondering what your experiences with automatic (self-cleaning)
litterboxes was. Which one do you think is the best?
I have two cats and the Littermaid Mega lasted five months before totally
dying. Anyone have any luck with the expensive LitterRobot?

I  have 2 x 8 y/o cats (brothers)
One has developed a strange behaviour:
When I stroke him on his back he gets a compulsive need to lick his body.
It is so bad that the instant I touch his middle to rear spine he goes ape

I have a cat who loves to be outdoors.  I have a neighbor who says my cat
gets on his truck and ruins the finish.  Never mind the fact that there
are other cats in the neighborhood and that the neighbor has a garage, but
chooses not to park his truck in it.

I used to love feeding birds. But Bert has been known to bring home
bird pieces...yeah, he goes out.
Anyone figured out how to feed birds safely with cats?

Hello.. I do hope someone can help me.. my cats anus seems to
get wider everytime he poops, i dont know if he's straining to hard
and it gets stuck that way or its a health problem. There is another
male cat in the house and im wondering if theres some 'hankypanky"

Last year I got two kittens, both from the same litter and both males.
They were very close to each other and were always together.
About three months after I got them, one of them got run over while I
was out as the person I was living with let him out. Naturally I was

My parent's cat is a bit thick. He continually does supremely stupid things
that endanger his life and health. For example, he has a tendency to jump on
stove, and I am worried about him burning his paws (he actually has burnt
his paws more than once). He continually 'calls' the ...

I have two cats. One is a female and a normal weight. One is a neutered male
and is getting tubby. He seems to eat about 3 times the recommended amount
of cat food he should be eating. I feed them both dry and wet cat food. The
female seems to prefer the wet food, whilst the male ...

Just curious.. I asked a question the other day and it seems I can't
step a foot right. I thought I was pretty good to my cats.
I spent thousands on an enclosure so they can play outside safely and
not harm birds.

FWIW, my cat is very happy that I bought her an electrically warmed pet bed.
If your place gets cool in the winter and you've got a heat-seeking cat

a heat-seeking cat because he's a seasonal lap cat; ...
