Cats - March 2007

My cat is Pregnant and going to have kittens any day. and last night i thought for sure she was having them by this morning. she was acting very strange...very resltess would sit for a min and then get up again and walk around. she was clawing her way under my blankets and cuddling up next to me. purring nonstop if she was being pet or not. and now all day today she didnt have them. but she can not get enough food. she is sitting between her bowl and the dogs bowl and eating one bite from each and eating and eating and eating. she is clawing around the back of her bowl trying to find more food. i dont know if i should refill her bowl because i dont know what is going on. can anyone tell me...is she going to have her kittens soon? or is something wrong? should i keep giving her more food?

I'm afraid of him having the anesthetic at this age or maybe
if they work on his gums the bacteria might get into his bloodstream and cause sepsis. Isn't it better to leave well enough alone, the vet says his teeth are "nasty"

My cat is very pregnant and she is getting ready to give birth within the next week or two. I know that I need to wait a certain amount of time or else she will like neglect the kittens or something. So how long? And is there anything else I should know about cats giving birth?

I am concerned about the pet food that is tainted.....I find several brand names of dog food, but can't find out if Friskies canned cat food is one to be concerned with. Friskes is made by purina but I can't get any information on it. Do you ?

Have you checked you pet food labels? 60 MILLION cans of cat and dog food have been recalled. Cats and dogs are dying appx 7 min. after eating the food and the ones that don't die have quit eaing and it's too soon to tell if they will die too!

Here's the website to check on the products and product numbers:

They are litter mates and they are both getting "fixed". We live in a somewhat large, two bedroom apartment. I'm worried that as they get older they'll try to mark their "territory" and fight all the time.

Any luck with long term training? I've got a short haired tabby who is obviously hyper and persistent. He'll sometimes run right through the shock barrier. Also, as soon as I take the collar off he goes wherever he dam well pleases.

I have two cats, both females: the first I adopted as an adult when my previous cat died, the second is an older cat (13) I've had for a year that I got from a friend who was going to take her to the shelter because of his wife's illness.

The second cat was never fixed, so she still goes into heat. Every time she goes into heat, I find cat pee in various places - my curtains, my clothes, shoes, mail, etc. It stops as soon as she's done.

Is there any psychological way of figuring out who's doing it? Do cats in heat pee more, or more likely to mark territory than they would otherwise?

Could my other cat be rebelling against territory invasion from the cat in heat (who normally stays in my office).

Just trying to find out more about urination habits of cats in heat - it's been decades since I've had a cat that wasn't fixed.

Thanks in advance for any advice!!

I have a 5 week old kitten I found last week. I can't get her to eat dry food no matter what I do. She will eat can food. If I mix the can with the dry, she just picks at it, and if I give her just dry, she'll leave it alone even if I soften it up with water.. I don't know what to do. Should I just leave the dry food out, and when she is hungy enough she'll eat it? I don't want her to starve!

My female cat hates blonde females. Not really a problem until my daughter comes to visit. But she really hisses and gets all bent out of shape anytime a blonde female comes into my house. Not just my daughter but any blonde female. She will agressively nip at their ankles and really shows her dislike.

I have a cat that comes and goes around and inside my house. Unfortunately with two other cats and uncertainty I have not taken this cat to the vet or established his health condition. Yesterday, he showed up with an injury on his tail that appears to be a bite wound from another cat. The closest vet is quoting me more money than I can afford to treat him. He seems ok, but is also more lethargic than usual. He is an older cat. What can I do? The wound still has the weep from him licking it and the actual cuts are starting to take a grey look. Any way I can clean this out? Being an outdoor cat, he is already a little scared but I can pick him up, etc. I know some local humane society or group might help me out for less ... but I'm not going to have the time to do all that this week with work. TIA for any information!

It looked like she was caring for them and feeding them ok, but then i don't know what happened. I check up on the kittens and her and found one dead and I don't know if she smothered it because she acted like it because when she knows she did something bad she'll run or move her ears, just things that she does when she's been bad. Now today I found another one dead. Now there's only 1 left and I don't know whether i should take care of it ourselves and buy all the necessary things. but it's just weird because when the first one died she didn't really abandon her kittens she still was feeding them so i don't know if she killed them. What could it be??? I mean they died the same way, with their mouths open like if they had milk on it or something
