How do you stop cats who do not have access to the outdoors from scratching wooden doors and frames please - they are adult cats - long term pets - average age 4 years old - multiple cats - all cats are related to each other - have litter trays, all very healthy and vet checked - previously had a garden - now in accomodation without access to a garden ? Realise that they need to scratch to renew and exercise their claws !

My two kittens: 4 month old tabby and tuxedo....

Tabby: Meows excessively... he'll be in a room and just meow like he's trying to find something (not food, water, petting or litter because he meows after getting all that). He also meows before going #2 in the litter
Tuxedo: Only meows when hungry or when my puppy jumps on top of him

Tabby: Runs and hides when I call him
Tuxedo: Runs to me when I call him

Tabby: Does not play with toys that much
Tuxedo: Loves toys and loves his new toy: laser pointer

Tabby: Hates dogs and hisses and claws at them
Tuxedo: Rough-houses with my Chihuahuas... and jumps them to start play

Is the tabby abnormal or is the tuxedo?

Also I still dont understand something...are cats afraid of the dark? I have 2 6wk old kittens, male(orange and white tabby) and female(mostly black calico w/ white underneath and all paws tipped white) Everytime they are sleeping and the light goes out and I go to my bed in my room they freak out and start meowing until the light goes back on or until they locate my bed and jump in it...ALSO I still havent named them..I want like a duo name since they are brother and sister but have no clue what yet...both of them are EXTREMELY playful and the tabby is very adventurous and the calico just follows her brother lol any help is appreciated thanks ;-)

I just want a simple fish! Gold fish are dirty I hear. I heard betta's are cleaner but I went on the website and they seem tough to maintain. How much does one small betta cost? Life expentancy? Food expense? Necessities?

I have a chichuacha... a very spoilt one. To begin with, he always likes to sleep on my pillow. He eats only the best food, a dog food is a total no for him. He does what he wants and never listens to me. The worst thing is that if I try to teach him some manners so to say (without any hitting or smth like that), he gets back at me by peeing all over the bed or carpet. What to do? It's annoying already.

one is male about a year old, nutered. the other is female about three years old spayed. the male cat sniffs and "paws" or "scrathes" at everything before he will sit by it or lay on it

The cheetah is the world's fastest land animal, the most unique and specialized member of the cat family.It can reach speeds up to 70mph but unlike other cats it is not aggressive.It uses it's speed to escape large predators but cannot fight them to protect its young.

My dog is a Jack Russell and he likes to lick my face. Is he doing this as a sign of affection, a greeting or to dominate?
