Cats - January 2007

My cat vomits most mornings between 630am and 8am, before she has eaten. She is otherwise healthy, and has a sleek coat, bright eyes and a good appetite. Though she is elderly at about 12 years. Her diet is sachets of cat food (I do vary the brand), and she wont eat buiscuits.
I would appreciate any advice you could give.

she just gets too much sometimes, she claws at my drapes, tearing them down. knocks everything off my nightstand, claws at my clothes. sits and meows all night. ive tried wearing her out by playing before bedtime, but she's still so hyperactive, running up and down the hall knocking her food and water bowl over. i really hate getting cross at her, but need to show her some discipline. how can i do this? i'd be really grateful for some tips

I have a cockerspaniel and she's 14 years old. She's always sleeping and she only gets up to eat or drink water and goes to the bathroom. Not at all lively. She can't climb up the stairs anymore but she does jump on the couch after walking back and forth gaining strenght to jump. How much life does she have left? 1 or 2 years more you think?

I have bought two types of battey powered automatic feeders - a round one with 5 sections that turns automatically, and a Le Bistro unit with a digital timer and automatic dispenser. She has figured out how to get food out of both of these. Are there any feeders that are cat tampering proof? Is there a way to cure my cat of overeating? Thank you!

I've stuffed a fish carcass with kale but she only ate the carcass. Help! I don't want her eating meat like other cats. She's too good for that.

ok to make a long story short we got my cat ladybug form the humane society in mid sept........

apparently THEY tested for all those things in august when she first got there and tested negative for all of them

she is STRICTLY an inside cat since we first got her

we feed her only her purina cat food and maybe once a month she gets canned food. she doesn't interact with any other animals.

she does not go into the trash and eat trash

although my husband has caught her one time sniffing around the toilet and he thinks she might have drank out of the toilet...but if she did drink that one time she wouldn't get worms from that one time....right?????

i am really worried about her i know she doesn't have heart worms cause we used to have a cat who had the same thing with the same symptoms and she got cleaned with two dr visits and a shot

but what would've caused her to get worms???
like does it take a long time for the worms to actually develop??
and that is why she tested negative

My well mannered 3 year old Burmese female just started urinating on my clothes laying around and occasionally on my bed clothes. She has a litter box and has always used it exclusively until recently. I don't know why she started this behavior nor can I figure out how to stop her. It happens every few days.

I know from reading old quastions that cats can sense when a women is pregnant. But have you ever heard of a cat wanting to be in the bathroom when you are. Like wanting to sit on your lap while your going to the bathroom. Is that becuase they can sense the change or because now that im 34 weeks im in there all the time or becuase shes been through one heat cycle already. and please no smart remarks.

Any personal experiences will help. I really, really want a cat, but am very allergic. I'm currently doing research. Are you, or have you ever been in my position? Any people with cat allergies that now successfully own a cat? What are your secrets/ tips that might help me?

I am very interested in getting a Ragdoll kitten. I noticed that some places recommend that you get them a companion cat if you are away from the house for long periods of time. I am wondering what consists as a "long period of time"?

I work a normal 8am to 5pm job (leave the house about 7:30am and get home at 5:00pm). My boyfriend works construction so he is very busy in the summer months (works 6am to about 3pm; the hours vary every day) but is usually home all day or most of the day in the winter months. We are usually home on the weekends other than maybe leaving to go out to eat.

Will the kitten be okay w/o a companion in this situation? Or do we need to get another cat? We are just not sure we can afford to buy 2 Ragdoll kittens at once. I suppose a cat from the humane society is always an option, if needed?! Thanks.

He also prefers the adult weight loss/hairball care chow to his own kitten chow (both Iams brand). He won't let his big sis eat, and she's such a submissive cat that she just lets him. Part of prob might be he has claws and she doesn't (she came to us that way). He doesn't seem to be using his claws to make her vacate the food bowls, and I've got the bowls at opposite ends of the room. Other than separation can I do anything? They usually get along fine and play-wrestle and sleep together and groom one another, it's just this food thing!

This is my cat's first litter. She is 1 1/2 years old. Other than kittens and future neutering, what am I looking forward to? What do I need to know? I have birthed babies, but no kittens.
