My three year old female cat is Gaga over nuts.  Sunflower seeds, peanuts,

small amount. It is like she knows when I open the jar or ...

There's been an abandoned kitten running around my back garden for a
couple of days now, and despite numerous attempts to catch it, the wee

hide in the garden too)

I have two cats one is a three year old female and the other is a male about
8 months.  At first they didn't get a long and the female hissed at him.

But right after that they bonded, groomed, slept together, etc.

   Anybody got a leather suite and cat?  We are thinking of getting one
but!  At the moment the chair arm and back are used as a launch pad to reach
the window sill.  What happens on a leather one when the rear claws are

With regard to letting cats out:  All the cats I know go outside, they

Last night I stopped off at the supermarket and bought a can of cat
food, or so I thought.  It was late and it was own label stuff so I
didn't recognise it, he doesn't usually get this brand but I had no
choice.

As I posted in an eariler thread, I'm going to get a cat. I'm a college
student living alone and I think a cat would be a nice pal.
I want one with blue eyes, I was wondering what breeds have blue eyes?
I liked the Persians, but I hear they are heavy upkeep. I was thinking

I'm moving soon and I've been stressing about my two cats. One is an
older female that is 90% an indoor cat (she occassionally hangs out on
the deck). I'm not so worried about her. But the other is a young male
cat I adopted about a year and a half ago. He was a stray and living

I live in an apartment and am looking for a cat to keep me company. I'd
like to know which breed is the smartest. I've searched Google to no
avail, though it seems Persians or Abyssinians seem to be the most

Our 18 month old female cat (kitten) was hospitalized with renal
failure 17 days ago.  We suspect lily toxic poisoning but we are not
