fast, shallow breathing by
Rick Vigorous
I have a 4 1/2 month old female kitten that's been with me for six weeks.
Aside from coming home with a tapeworm, which has now been eliminated, she
seems the picture of health. Enormous appetite, weed-like growth, and
possessed of astonishing energy and strength (she'll jump 5 feet straight
up to...

Astroturf mats by
John Doe
Years ago, the local megastore had three or four different types,
but unfortunately they have stopped selling any of them here.
Astroturf doormats work great for the cat litter box area. They
work great for cat sleeping mats too, with some cover like a
towel, because they are breezy and...

POLL - Is it OK to breed your cat? by
KellyH
I have been labeled an extremist and a lunatic because I do not think it is
OK for someone to breed their cat. I'm wondering who else feels this way.
BTW - this is not a breeder, it's just someone with a regular old moggy who
wants kittens that are just as sweet and special as their...

CHLORPHENIRAMINE (Chlortrimeton) for Cats? by
Mowzer
My cat Noodles has asthma an allergies to various things.
She gets steroid shots at long intervals, and I take the

We've got two tabbies, Spirit and Angel, each is about 3 years of age.
They both eat the same food but Angel has an on-again, off-again
sensitivity to the above food. Sometimes she'll go two weeks without

Need to know if a cat has had kittens by
MacCandace
How can I tell for
sure? What should I do?
I'm sure a vet could tell. Is she trying to get out desperately. Usually, if
they have kittens, they don't want to be away from them very long. How long
have you had her inside?

Toilet training ?? by
moi
I've
never seen the need for litter boxes.
I wish - mine come in from outside to use theirs! :o(
I will admit we adopted them when they were 5 years old and they had never
been allowed outside before. Five years later and they still dash in and
dive in the box. At least my neighbours can't...

Cat Drowned In Pool by

Just came home from work and decided to go in the pool and found one of my cats
floating in the water. A heartbreaking and horrifying sight. She was a stray I
took in 6 or seven years ago and getting up there in age and having a little

I was just wondering but is de-clawing cats particular to the US? I live in

idea but I have never heard of anyone here who has ever come across...

I've had him since he was 2 weeks old. He's a big, long hair, never
had health issues other than weight. We had to move him out of the

Another freaking cat crisis in my 'hood. Of all the zillions of

previously so I won't bore everyone)--literally 9 regulars, 3 semi-

the most part)--tonight while...

Pros and Cons of Maine Coons by

I'm thinking of purchasing a Maine Coon and would appreciate any tips
on care, grooming, indoors vs outdoors, etc., as well as caveats. The

comparisons between the two in terms of personality, habits, and the
like. For example, my...
