Cat Chat Feline Forum

I am so pleased to report that I am now at the stage where this cat comes meowing over to me every morning and evening and trots along with me to his food bowl. It's not my first attempt but I was finally able to successfully scratch his head tonight. He still gets flighty and backs away but I went ...

My advice would be to take your time with this cat. If you do relocate don't do it with stress/force. If she comes out for feeding you may be able to get her to walk into a carrier to eat and close the door if you wish to move her. Remain calm at all times, move slowly, don't show any fear, don't st...

I'd love some advice about my cat Max. Him and Storm used to both live outside simply because Storm had been wild and was released here and Max when let outside would sleep in her outdoor bed and didn't want to be in.

No sign of him. It has been 6 days now. We went away overnight and the food was gone but I believe this was probably my cat who followed me out to feed him thismorning. I have continued to leave food out daily since his disappearance but it usually remains not eaten or only partially and he used to ...

I need to know for future reference if I could of done something different. I have been feeding a semi-formal for a month and a half. He got to the point he was waiting for his food every day. He even started sleeping sometimes in the kennel I gave him. He meowed at me the day before i trapped him (...
