As I opened a bottle of diet coke, my cat came up started sniffing the bottle, so I stuck it under his nose and squeezed the bottle so the smell of diet coke went up his nose. He ran off and I havent seen him since.

Am I cruel?

I want to put my cat box in a hallway closet, so it's out of sight. There aren't clothes in the closet, but I still don't want it to smell. I scoop the litter daily, and change the litter weekly (one cat), however I'm sure that it will start to smell a bit eventually...
What kind of stick-on or free standing air fresheners would work best on that kind of odour? Or do you have any home made freshening ideas?
Thanks for your answers!!

this started about a month ago, he was neutered about 10 years ago and we have never had this happen before, he keeps getting very randy and trying it on with all the family, or anything else that moves, he has been attacked by the local cats and if we move too fast whilst he is feeling this way he flings himself at you with claws out (its getting quite scary)!. The vet thinks it may be that there are other cats in season, but we have lived in the same place for years, and there is no evidence of cats being in season. I am moving abroad in a few months and really need to sort this out before we go as he is getting himself exhausted and I am worried it will make him ill. Any ideas would be most welcome!!

My boyfriend and I recently moved in together into a new house. He has a cat that is about 4 years old and I have a cat who is about 17 years old but in very good condition. We moved them in about two days apart. They have both been living in our house for about 2 months now. My cat chases the 4 year old cat around anytime she comes out from hiding. The four year old used to put up a fight but now she is very afraid of my cat. She stays on our bed all day long because my cat cannot jump up there because she is older. She wakes me up every morning to walk her down to her litter box because she's so scard of my cat. It is becoming a hassle and getting very annoying. She has even peed on my comforter because she was so afraid to get off the bed. My cat, the 17 year old, will not leave the 4 year old alone. She chases her, jumps on her and hisses at her. This cannot keep happening but I do not know what to do to get them to get along. Any suggestions?

I have 3 female indoor cats, and normally during the night, they start "waking up" while we are sleeping, and they start playing with the reptiles we have in cages, and start playing with things in the house , they're bored, but i have no idea what to do to keep them busy during the night...

I need to get her shots & GOD KNOWS I NEED TO HAVE HER FIXED. No more cat in heat for me. My ex-wife was more fun.
I'm looking for some type of discounted services. I can pay some but not the hundreds most Vet's quote. I'm not gonna abandon her but she needs help & I need some help to do that. Gotta be some cat savvy people out there. I'm just a dumb dog guy. I live in the St. Louis MO. area

Okay, I have a mom cat and two kittens (both males approx. 4 mo old). Anyway, this stray older male cat started coming around (most likely for the mom). I keep her inside now, but the stray male follows the kittens around. He'll walk with them or lay down in the same area with them.

Is this normal? Why is he doing this?

I adopted three kittens (which grew up as ferals). The mother cat gave birth to them in our porch. These cats look out for each other. They wait for each other before eating. They protect each other and clean each other. When they were young, one of the cats got stuck in a cement block while playing. After hearing cries of distress, one of the other cats examined the situation, and came over to help. After some quick thinking, he went around the back of the block, pushed his sister out from behind, then pulled her out from the front, by the nape of her neck. Afterwards, he licked her face and kissed her, while the other cat looked on. Since we adopted them the mother had two kittens. The father cat always waits for the others to eat, before eating, and watches over the kittens and their mother, while they're eating and playing. Is this unusual cat behavior, or do all cats do this?

The idiot cat scratched me on my head and it's bleeding. Should I tell? Should I get them to look at it? It's my sister's cat but it stays with me.

Does anyone have any ideas on what can be done done with stray cats? Over the last few week we have been getting more and more of them hiding under our porch. They are under there because it is cold out and they are being protected from the wind. We are NOT feeding them, but I woke up this morning and there were 7 of them! I have called many places and they all say that either I can trap them myself and when I bring them in, they will put them down because they will not make good house pets, or they will get them fixed but release them back in the same area. Any ideas on who I can call or what to do? Thanks!

I knwot his is a weird question, but in the Arm & HAmmer multi-cat litter commercial, there is this beautiful reddish-brown cat in it. It's short haired. I have never seen a cat this color and I wanted to know if maybe someone knew waht kind of cat it was.

The food comes back up looking pretty much the same as it did going down.
A friend suggested maybe reflux.??
Liberty (the cat) is a VERY picky eater- she doesn't like treats or most wet food.
She is overweight , but otherwise is given a clean bill of health by vet. She was abandoned so we don't have any early history on her.

Does anyone know what you can do for a Shih Tzu that has a disorder of knawing on thier paws to where it creates sores and bleeds? He eats a good Lamb and Rice food. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks.
