Cats - July 2007

I was visiting friends yesterday, met their 2 cats. I was told one was the 'brother son' of the other. At first I thought, Nephew? But I was told the one cat had mated with his own mother, and the result was the other cat! It looked and acted normal. Is this common? I was a little weirded out, I hope I didn't hurt the kitty's feelings.

We got a 9 week old kitten yesterday, named Cody, and I bought him some dry Kitten Chow. He has yet to eat or drink anything and he hasn't used the litter box. Do you think I should switch to the wet food?

I left my two cats with someone when I was homeless and had no money. I didn't want to take them to a shelter and this guy I left them with had agreed to take them in for some time. I trusted them with him because he had cats of his own and my babies were free to roam and prance around his house and I came to feed them everyday and to change litter.
Abruptly I had to leave the country almost overnight and I left the cats with him. Circumstances were really bad for a while and then two months later, I tried to get in touch with Carlo, the guy who had my cats. However, Carlo is MIA- I can't get hold of him on the cell # I had for him. I would like to know if he still has my babies or if he gave them away. I want to locate them and somehow bring them to me in Asia. Is there any way to recover cats from shelters once they're given away? If I do manage to locate my kitties, how can I bring them back, provided I cannot go and physically bring them on a plane myself?

I just arranged to get another female kitten, but my app 3 month old male kitten just sprayed for the 1st time. Should I get him fixed asap, or should i give him another month? I'm wondering if he'll spray more once the other kitten is around (she's about 8-10 weeks) if I wait. I'm also not sure if I should get him fixed before I even bring her in, or will that make any difference when they're both still young & not sexually mature? Thanks!

They are supposed to be an humane alternative for declawing? She is a strictly indoor cat and I would never consider declawing her, but I would like to save the furniture. I have gotten her a scratching post but she eems to prefer the couch and rug.

I indend to take her to the vet tomorrow; but I want some info for my own benefit. HELP!

My cat weighs 16 pounds. She is a small cat and the vet said that it is crucial that she lose weight. His advice was to just feed her only twice a day, am and pm. She eats a weight management dry food and I measure a bit under 1/4 of a cup each feeding. The vet said that an average house cat eats about a half a cup a day so I should feed her just a hair less.

How long until I see results with her?

I live in a neighborhood that is filled with cayotes and where cats go missing all the time. A giant hill where the cayotes live connects to my backyard and I hear them howl sometimes. My two cats used to be outdoor cats, but then twice in a month a cayote came into my backyard in the middle of the day and would have killed the cats if they hadn't been out in the front yard. For the past year I have only let them out an hour a day and one of them is on a leash during that time (it runs away for hours when it is free). They have a large fenced in deck in the front that the cats can be on all day. The cats are happy when they go outside, but is that happiness worth the risk? I doubt your responses will change anything but your opinions still count.

I have recently adopted two adorable orange tabby kittens--one male and one female. I have heard from many people that orange cats are "crazy." What's the concensus on this?

I just noticed my kitten floating around the bottom of the pool. When I got it out it was barely hanging on to life...it's so small. It is meowing and moving around now but it's in shock and it's full of water. What do I do? How do I get the water out of it's stomach?? Please help I'm so scared for it :(

I went out to feed our german shepard and out of his house came this baby kitten, it is really dirty and covered in ants with green stuff coming out of his eyes, I don't know what to do. I picked it up with a towel and got it out of the fence away from the dog.

I have a 10 year old cat and recently he has been peeing right outside the litter box and I can't figure out why. He has never done this before and I'm not sure what to do. His litter box is always clean and he poops in it but won't pee in it...
