Cats - September 2006

We don't want to let the cat out until it is spayed, but we do want it to be an outdoor cat? What is the minimum age for fixing a female cat?

For example, when you touch your cat, does he/she meow?

Also her behavior has changed. She will nudge me, run and jump on the tv, nightstand, etc. to wake me up in the mornings. Then she goes back to bed after I get up. She is 4 yrs old. Nothing has changed in the household that might be upsetting to her.

We have a orange tabby cat. For some reason at night when I go up to bed he like plays hockey with his two paws at the back of my feet and he lightly bits your ankles.
Any one know why he does this?

outside now. Will that be ok since he's been an inside cat for 2 years now? I don't know why he's started acting this way, but I'm not tolerating it.

I named him Little JJ. I was wondering how long does it take for a kitten to know what their names are?

He is throwing another party when I told him he can't! Except the party isn't as wild as last time...

He thinks he'll be COOL if he throws parties all the time! And he always wants to be with his friends! I know that happens when he is his age, and I don't want to make him depressed by never letting him do parties and grounding him... how do I support his idea and keep it under countrol at the same time!!!??? What are some ideas for parties that are not crazy and won't get him in to mischief? How many cats should we invite, and what type of food and beverages??? I don't want this to be crazy, but I do want it to be fun for my cat! HELP PLEASE?

We first thought that she may have worms, so we got her worm medication after we gave it to her I noticed blood in her crap. I figured maybe it was the worms dying I didn't know. It's been like 3 weeks or so & her crap is the same runny is this like the norm for kittens or what God I hope not! Can you give cats imodium or something?

We put her on new food yesterday and discovered she peed on our carpet again today. We are thinking of confining her to a room when we are at work. Once her crystals are dissolved we can try letting her roam the house to see if she still pisses on the carpet.

I'm wondering how you should decide, I know if you don't spade or neuter a cat they can be more of a hassle, but I also know that they have a chance of getting cute little fuzzy kittens and it won't cost me a fourtune.

Help me decide?

My cat was looking out the window and it was dark out. No one was around and I was sleeping. Then all of a sudden I heard my cat meow so loud, I thought someone had stepped on her. By the time I got to her, no one was outside that I saw and no one was in the house (Thank God). One question remains, why did she do that?

My boyfriend has a labrador which pooped on the floor and when I spanked him my boyfriend got verbally abusive. When I came home the next day I found that he buried my two cats in the backyard up to their necks and ran over their heads with the lawn mower. I want to break up with him but if I do I wont have anywhere to live. What should I do?

my one year old indoor cat Shelley sometimes acts wierd like he is unsure or scared of objects in my flat.

today he kept creeping up to a towel and reaching out to touch it with his paws but when he touched it and it moved slightly he jumped away from it. then he does it again.

he does the same to lots of different objects.

is this normal cat behaviour?
why does he do it?

My fiancee and I just welcomed a new kitten into our home about two weeks ago. We received him from a repitable pet store in town. His date of birth is 5/27/06. Now my question is pretty plain and simple, but...when ever we shower, run the faucet, leave the toilet open, he almost immediately goes to it and drinks. I make sure his bowl is both full and fresh everyday, does anyone know as to why he does this. Also, we have a fairly soft blanket in the bedroom, that if he comes in contact with it, he immediately drops down, and start "nursing" on it, kneading away as well. I have heard this may mean that he was taken away from his mother too soon, but i figured I'd ask seeings how I had another question. Thanks in advance!!

anyone heard or experienced any detrimental effects on cats when feeding Friskies only?

2006-09-26 09:04:47 · 12 answers · asked by Phoebhart 6

According to her vet, our female calico is 10 lbs. I was surprised she weighed that much and asked the vet if it was OK. The vet said she should be 8 lbs or so; those extra 2 lbs don't sound like much but they're a lot on her little frame!

The real question is: how much should a cat her size really be eating? We were just refilling her bowl whenever it turned up empty (yeah...bad idea). Over the past few days I have been giving her 1/4 cup of dry Iams cat food in the morning and one in the evening (plus 2 treats in the morning). She seems fine with it and doesn't cry for more food.

Should I cut this down even more or does this sound right for a female cat? Thanks in advance guys!
