Cat Health > Kitty with rhino virus

Quagmire Giggity giggity- goo!     Purred: Wed Jun 20, '12 10:33am PST  So it appears Quagmire has caught the rhino virus, and the vet gave him some Lysine chews. Problem is, and as unbelievable as it sounds, he doesn't like treats. How am I supposed to get him to eat these? I guess we can try to squish it and mix it in his food, but I have a feeling that might fail, seeing as he is very smart. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become friends [notify]

Behavior & Training > Aggressive cat sibling

Quagmire Giggity giggity- goo!     Purred: Tue May 15, '12 5:38pm PST  Hi! We adopted Quagmire about 2 weeks ago, and the process of introducing him to our other cat, Munchkin, seemed to have gone well, or so we thought. Munchkin is territorial, but so are most cats. They seemed to be getting along, until we came back home tonight. Quagmire has a scratch under his right eye. I know that he and Munchkin play rough, but we thought that if they don't get hurt, then it was nothing to worry about. Munchkin will sometimes hiss, but it's nothing like when they first met, like the first 12 hours. But now we're freaking out a little bit. Are we overreacting? He doesn't look traumatized, since he still runs around and plays with his cat sister, but we don't want him to get more hurt. - A worried kitty mom & dad my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become friends [notify]

Behavior & Training > Water & sink obsession

Quagmire Giggity giggity- goo!     Purred: Tue May 1, '12 8:03am PST  Cats love running water. They don't like being bathed, but they're attracted to movement. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become friends [notify]

Raw Food Diet > Whiskers

Quagmire Giggity giggity- goo!     Purred: Tue May 1, '12 7:50am PST  Whiskers are kind of like eyelashes, and hair in general... Sometimes it falls, but it'll grow back eventually shortly after. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become friends [notify]

Cat Health > Outdoor Cats? Why?

Quagmire Giggity giggity- goo!     Purred: Mon Apr 30, '12 9:22pm PST  I am considering a harness though. But that's the most I'll ever do. Don't want my babies to run off. So many lost cats here. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become friends [notify]

Cat Health > Outdoor Cats? Why?

Quagmire Giggity giggity- goo!     Purred: Mon Apr 30, '12 9:20pm PST  I live on the third floor of an apartment building in the city. With all the lost cat signs around, it's just making me want to keep my cats indoors. If I lived in the country and had a house, maybe they'd be indoor/outdoor, but in such a big city, nope, I don't feel safe with that. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become friends [notify]

Behavior & Training > Oh no! Old cat hates new cat!

Quagmire Giggity giggity- goo!     Purred: Mon Apr 30, '12 9:15pm PST  I was told older cats are fussier and not as accepting as younger cats. That's all I can say... I adopted Quagmire on Saturday. He's a 6-month old kitten, and my resident kitty is roughly 13 months old. The hissing and growling lasted less than 24 hours, and there was barely any fighting - it looked more like playing to me. Munchkin (resident cat) was a bit pissed off and did most of the hissing, but she's now bugging Quaggy to play with her, so it looks like she's accepted him into her territory. The younger the cats, the better, from what almost every cat owner has told me. Good luck! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become friends [notify]
