Why did you give your cats the names you did?
Julie6962 asked:
Mine are name Waylon and Willie. They are brothers and we were thinking about a famous male duo that we liked. They’re named after Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson and we were thinking of the song “Mamas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys”.

Please someone help my little family! ?
Autumn R asked:
I just got an 11 month old bengal cat, Iro, about a week ago. He still scared but he’s starting to feel comfortable with me, not my husband. He is terrified of him. My husband feeds him and tries to play with him but nothing. He never hissed at him but he did try to swat him. What is the best for him not fear and feel comfortable with my husband? Mind you, he is not neutered. I love this cat, I know he can be a good and just needs time but what can I do to make my cat like my husband and not is scared all the time.

Cat pees everywhere?
hawkstar92 asked:
I have a male (neutered), 5+ year old Bengal cat. He just started at the end of 2007 ****** everywhere! On coats, in boxes, on papers or files from file cabinets, on marble floors, even right next to his kitty litter box! I have an older cat and a younger cat also in the house-both neutered males whose get along fine with the Bengal. The kitty litter boxes are cleaned at least once every 2 days, have never been moved or changed (no new boxes), and there are at least 1.5 for each cat. In the time I’ve owned him (almost all of his life), he’s had UTI at least 3 times- but the vet says now he doesn’t have it. He has gone right in front of my relatives, but never in front of me or in my room. I’ve tried the spray bottle method, but it doesn’t work. Is there any way to stop my cat? (I’ve also tried scaring him away from the places he’s already peed in (he’s scared of everything) but it doesn’t work.)
Yes, he has been declawed since I got him neutered, which was the moment he was old enough to have it done. All three of my cats have been declawed and neutered and can roam around the house as they please. He has never shown interest in the outdoors, and he runs when I open the front door. Almost anything will scare him. He defiantly is a one person cat, but every relative that comes to my house is a relative he has known since I first got him. He is a cat that would rather run than go check things out; unless I’m there. I know he’s allergic to sea food, so he’s on a strict diet that hasn’t been changed. I’m pretty sure he’s not jealous; out of the three he probably gets the most attention. All my cats find water fascinating- until they have to touch it. He hates water the most and yowls like he’s dying during a bath. Would bathing him after I know he’s gone where he’s not supposed to stop his ******?

Is all clumping cat litter potentially harmful to cats?
leona8522 asked:
So, I heard cats can sometimes ingest clumping cat litter and this can cause impactions in their lungs. Is this true for all clumping cat litter or only non-natural clumping cat litter like scoop away? Like does the world’s best cat litter pose this same risk to cats or not since its made of corn?

Why does everyone complain about their cats?
Hedicat asked:
I’ve heard nurmous complaints about their kittens and cats.
Most of you probably work all day and expect your indoor cats to be perfectly wonderful when you get home, well, that is not the case.
These are animals that are left indoors all day and get soooo bored.
Most of your complaints are because of this.
A lot of cats do many things in the house because they need to be outdoors. THEY ARE BORD.
Get a cage, or fenced area and get them out.
Sorry for all you apartment owners, but this is the reason for most of your complaints.
P.S. Some cats cannot live indoors.
There is a difference between complaining about things that are just natural for cats to do, and asking concerned cat questions as I have.
