Cats - July 2007

Some jerk dumped 5 kittens on my property and the humane society wont help me cuz they're full, they wont even help me spay and neuter them. All the pet rescue places wont help me spay or neuter. I live 30 miles from Washington State so I called over there and they wont help me b/c I dont live in Washington. What in the hell am I supposed to do!! I took these poor kittens out of a box in 102 degree heat, I've been feeding them, I let them in my house, I box trained them, yet NO ONE will help me spay/neuter them!! Like its my fault some jerk dumped them on my property!!!! AGGGHHHHH!!! Its so frustrating!!!!!

We brought a kitten home that is only about 8 weeks old. When we tried to introduce the kitten to my sister's cat, they didn't get along at all. My sister's cat hissed at the 8 week old kitten and we want them to get along so we wont have to get rid of the kitten. Please help me to get these two along.

I have a 2.5 year old indoor, female (fixed) cat. She is an attention whore (to put it lightly). She demands the attention of myself and my boyfriend. She whines incessantly and follows us all over the house. She head-butts us in an effort to get us to pet her, as if petting her 8 hours of the day isn't enough. She keeps us awake all night with her meowing, crawling over our heads, and scratching the closet door open. Kicking her out of the room is no help as she rams into the door repeatedly while crying.

What can I do to stop her need for constant attention?

A little while ago my cousin said my kitten will be going in heat soon, but she's only 5 months old. All I want to know is if a kitten can go in heat, at 5 months old, and if so, what would be the signs of her going into heat

do not go to heaven. I would hope that heaven is just not filled with people, but also with landscapes, mountains, rivers, oceans, and all of the animals we love. I think it would be a boring place without our dearly departed animals, don't you?

I am thinking of getting my five yr old cat declawed. How old is too old to get this done? How much does it cost? Is it really that BAD of a thing to do?

I had to get my yr old cat declawed as I am moving into an apartment that requires it. He's avoiding me, does this stop after some time and he heals up?

Our 12yr old female cat urinates all over the house. Usualy in the same few spots.
She hardly ever uses the litter box, and this has been going on for quite some time now.
The cat is an inside/outside cat
It is not a super friendly cat.
What do I need to provide for the cat in the room to make it feel comfortable?
Will it ever urinate in the litter box?

Sometimes I'll be playing with my new kitten, and he'll attack my arm and start scratching and biting it, and it wasn't to bad before, just playful, but now he's biting harder and really scratching, how do I get him to be gentler?

Does anyone have tall kitty condo's? I am looking into a 3-tier bed one for my 2 cats. I want to know how cats respond to them and if anyone's cats rejected them.

Problem is, my kitties are stubborn and don't always play with the toys I think are cool. They usually prefer to play with my things. They do like to sit on furniture that is forbidden so I am wanting something they are allowed to climb on.

My cat always wants to drink from my glass and I let her. Is this dangerous or is it okay?
I read cat's spit is different from ours and it might be bad for us.

I've tried:
Laying him on his back and staring at hime until he looks away.
Spraying him with water.
Yelling "ouch" very loudly.
Yelling at him.
Putting him on a time-out in another room.
Trying to avert his attention to a toy when he is trying to attack me but he just goes after my arm instead.
He doesn't do this to my fiance...please someone tell me a way to stop this.
The latest bite required a band-aid with antbiotic because it started swelling up. He is leaving scratches and bites all over my legs, and he even bruises me when he attacks really hard. My fiance has tried reprimanding him also.
Please help!

Details: He ate half a tab of 75m/g of effexor XR. Most of it was on the floor.
I put half a cap of 3%hydrogen peroxide down his throat in hope that he would vomit. He didn't
He's been to the vet twice today. They gave him a pill that should make him better. They also put fluids on his coat to try to relax him. His pupils have been dialated since 10:30pm it's now 3:45 pm the next day. Has anyone had anything like this happen?? IS the hydrogen peroxide and effexor XR and toxic mixture? I only want positive feedback. Please do not call me a bad mother because accidents do happen.

If I have a cold and she snuggles with me and I give her kisses and pet her will she catch my cold? Can cats catch colds from humans?

I have a sweet cat named raegan, and she has been with us since last summer, we found her digging in the pinestraw in front of our house. at first we weren't sure if she was friendly, but after she saw us standing there, she came right up to us and started we could tell she was begging for attention. We gave her some food, and she went on her way. we thought that that would be the last time we would see her, but we were wrong, she came back the next day. she has stuck around ever since. we believe she had an owner for some part of her life because she hasn't had kittens, which means she has been spayed. The only thing we are unsure about is her age. is there anyone that can help me find the easiest way to determain her age without going to a vet?? Thanks so much!!!

Our cat urines all over the place, normally in the same few spots.
We want to kind of lock her up in the laundry room in the basement. It is a good size room.
The floor is cement though and we want to make it at least comfortable for the Cat. What kind of amenities should we provide.
This is an older cat about 12 yrs.
Is there anything we can do to stop her urinating problem?
Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated...Thanks!
