@Linda Simon I would love to add a box - sadly my apartment has very limited space - the second box has arrived but cannot be set up until I get my next litter shipment (of course it has been modif...
@Gail Wentzlaff ,,,His butt itches. He may not have cleaned himself properly and it itches. Or it may be something more serious like worms. Take him to the vet if it is.
@Karen Pickett ,,I have the same problem with my oldest cat, 13 years old. I can't keep throw rugs, mats of any kind or any fabric on the floor because my cat will pee on it. I have 5 cats, includi...
You know the pain involved in declawing a cat ? They remove the knuckle of the poor cat along with the nail. They have so many scratch posts and a clear material that attach to the sides of your co...
In my area, no one will declaw a cat. It's cruel, and as others have said, they don't really recover from that trauma. Try getting your cat used to having nails trimmed and have scratching posts/ma...
Hi there Karen. I'm sorry to hear about this. So, I do think that the lack of litter trays was likely the issue here. Cats really dislike sharing trays, and often pee elsewhere when they ...
@Linda Simon I am sorry for your loss. I had a pair of nine year old bonded littermates. The brother (Luke) became ill and needed to be euthanized. The sister (Daisy...
I have two cats and one cove. I do get the "stink eye" when one has used it and other is in there. I knew I needed a second box (space of where to place the second box is sadly in short...

I have recently seen my cat dragging his butt on the carpet! I thought only dogs did this. What is going on?
We have just gotten two 5 month old little sisters...if you walk towards them they run..if you gently try to touch them they run..if you try and hold one they get crazy..they are so stand offish......
Hi there and thank you for your question. Just dry is ok, yes. It is especially good for those prone to dental disease. If a cat has bladder or kidney issues, however, a wet diet...
Hi there! Most cats don't mind a quick change over. However, if she can be sensitive to things like this, we can gradually transiton by mixing them over a few days, increasing the amount ...
Hi there and thank you for this question. This is a common issue; dogs love the taste of cat poo as it is quite high in protein. I'd get a litter tray with a roof in this situatio...
Hi there! Yesm cats can certainly do this and some cats also lick and nibble and 'groom' us. However, some cats also bite when they no longer wish to be stroked and need space. In...
Hi there and I'm sorry to hear about this. The rule of thumb is that there should be one tray per cat and one extra. This may seem ludicrous, but often cats will 'claim' a tray as their own. Cats...
Hi there and thanks for your post. If he is fighting, biting and breaking skin, this is a real concern. We need to separate the cats for now, as there is a real risk of a nasty infection ...
Hi there, and thanks for this question. If he is known to be a Herpes virus carrier, it is quite possible that this is a flare. As well as steam, it helps to ensure the air is generally w...
