Cat Chat Feline Forum

thanks so much! i definitely did read about kittens not using clumping litters til theyre 4 months but i also saw that the kitten litter by dr.elsey is clumping and for cats 8 weeks and older which she is does anyone know about this brand or if thats a false statement? im pretty sure its a clay litt...

ok ok so clay litter is ok then? when i found her i assumed id be using clay litter cuz i thought thats just what all cats used lol then i was overwhelmed by all the actual options. what brand do you use if you dont mind me asking? and no the ferret and rabbit dont dig at all. the just goes while gr...

yes ok so i was a little confused about feeding too so please feel free to correct me or offer advice. i decided to give her wet food and dry food so currently she is getting one can of wet food either wellness kitten chicken or different flavors of cat person brand and for dry food she is getting 1...

so usually when im interested in a pet i do my research first and then get the animal but we found a kitten and its my first cat ever and im trying to figure everything out but i am having the hardest time understanding about litter and litterbox maintenance. i know these are probably stupid and bas...

i definitely didnt want to bathe her 3 times in two weeks but things got too messy that just wiping her down wasnt going to cut it :/ then my thought process was that if i can get her to understand baths arent that scary when she's little then when she's older if for some reason she did need a bath ...

Basically i took in a stray kitten but ive never had a cat before. She is 9 weeks now and adjusting pretty well. Everyday she seems to be more and more confident and less things scare her but she is still a pretty timid kitten. Two things i'd like to do with her is 1) get her used to baths and 2) in...

yes! i definitely have experience with sharp little teeth! i could be wrong bc ive never had a cat but in the past ive always had success with teaching them that toys are for playing and hands are for getting pet. so unless thats the wrong way to teach a kitten im not too concerned about it. i was m...

thank you so much i was just trying to look up how to properly take care of a kitten since this is my first one and that was all that was popping up and it made me feel like i was being selfish for wanting her to stay with me.

so basically she was found at 7 weeks old all by herself in a busy bar parking lot on a very hot day. she was terrified when we brought her home but on the second day we gave her a bath and she warmed up to us after that. she had no fleas but ear mites and worms which we got treated and her first va...
