I have two 3 year old males who seem rather bored in my condo apt.
They can't go outside and
ignore all the Petco toys I bought them.  Do cats need entertainment?
If so, what?

I've heard that the best age to get a new cat would be about 6 months old
rather than a kitten because the cats personality will be known by then &
you'll know exactly what your getting.  Is this true?  We like the idea of a
small kitten but hate to find out later we made a bad ...

non-stop. He lets it in, feeds it strips of ham (which it ravenously

On behalf of a very fussy guy who's getting 2 kittens, what is the most

Recently my  husband was deployed and I believe that our cat misses him. She
has become more of a loving cat. She will come and curl up with me more now

but never said what to do about the rough edges. He's tearing up my down
comforter!!!! HELP.

My cat is fussy eater,but when it's something she likes, she has no problems.

My 14 year-old cat has been diagnosed with progressive degenerative
arthritis, and the vet has given me Metacam (NSAID) to use.  Apparently,
