My cats Molly and Lucy have just experienced a christmas tree. Its their first christmas this year! They have tried climbing up the tree,they have climbed in the tree and played with the ornaments!

My Cat Porky has decided to join them. This is the first year I have seen him play in the tree! Its his 4th christmas!
My cat Pepper who died in January loved taking naps in the tree! She loved sitting in the tree!

If she was alive today she would be playing in the tree!

♥♥Mrs SSG B♥♥ asked:


I was just reading some material on feline heartworm that my vet gave me for our new kitten. In it they say there is no approved treatment for heartworm. How do they test for it?

my car always attacks me?

Filed under: Cats — Tags: , , — frank @ 12:31 pm

Josh J asked:


I have a Bengal cat, i guess its somewhat wild
anyways, out of no where it will attack me, jump at me, grab me with its claws and bite into me, its about 4 years old
if i don’t listen to her and wont open the widow to let her jump outside she’ll meow, and if i still don’t listen shell attack me
ive gotten mad sometimes and grabbed her by her neck and thrown her. and she just runs back up and attacks me again. we have full out fights
example. today i was sitting on my laptop. she went to the window, meowed. looked at me.. i looked away.. she meowed for 5 more minutes and i didn’t want to open the window because it was cold.. so she walks up to me and jumps at my upper arm and grasp it with her claws and bites me.. i grabbed her and threw her on the ground.. she jumped back up and my beck, i caught her in mid air by her neck and held her down with both hands until she got calm.
is it because shes a Bengal or is she mentally insane?
I dont abusive her, i protect myself
and she loves me, most of the time. sleeps in my lap.. and follows me around
but out of no where she’ll go insane
ive had her since a kitten
shes almost always been like this
sit on my lap.. be all nice purrr. while purring out of no where make a weird noise.. and start biting, while purring :S

ill try the water

What should I do with my cats after flea treatment?

Filed under: Cats — Tags: , , — frank @ 11:16 pm

cohrsman asked:


I have fleas in my house and on my cats. I went to the vet and got the advantage drops for the cats. I have also sprayed my house, used a flea fogger, and have been vacuuming everything and cleaning the crap outta my house. Since both cats and the house have been treated should I continue to keep my cats quarantined in the bathroom or should I let them out. I’m thinking it’s probably ok to let them out now since the pesticide has had time to settle. Also, I think the advantage stuff on the cats is supposed to kill any fleas that jump on. I’m thinking it’s a good idea to let the cats run around so the remaining fleas that continue to hatch will jump on the cats and die. Advise?

How should I introduce my puppy to adult cats?

snowprincess1313 asked:


I have a 5.5 month old samoyed puppy. She is fairly well trained, although a bit stubborn, and plays very well with other dogs. She also loves all people. Next week we are going to a friend’s house for spring break (only staying one night) and they have two cats. One is a neutered male somewhere between 2 and 6 years old (I’m not sure), and the other is an unspayed female between 1 and 5 years old.
The only time my puppy has seen cats was at the vets office, when she saw them in crates recovering from operations. She barked and growled at them then, so I don’t know how she’ll respond to seeing a normal, alert cat. She does have a hunting instinct toward small animals (she’s killed a few mice in the backyard) but she is still friendly toward very small dogs. The cats have never lived with dogs. Can you please give me some tips on introducing the puppy to the cats? Thanks in advance.
I’d rather not keep them seperated because I eventually plan on getting a cat. Otherwise, thanks for the answers so far!

How can I socialize my cat with other cats?

Filed under: Cats — Tags: , , — frank @ 7:08 am

Sakaki asked:


My cat is fine with people and dogs, but she is terrified of other cats, she will growl and hiss at them. How do I help her get over this? I take her for walks on a harness, so could it be that she thinks she’s a dog, and not a cat?

Is a tortie (tortoiseshell) cat an actual specific breed? Or just a coloring?

Filed under: Cats — Tags: , , — frank @ 1:28 am

lily asked:


I only ask this because I have never seen torties on a breed chart at the vet’s or in animal shelters. If torties are just a color pattern of a certain breed, which one is it?

I personally think my tortie looks to be a combination of a Siamese and a Korat.
I also ask this as my shorthaired tortie has a longhaired completely black kitten.
