Re: cat books for the novice

Gee I think I would like the streetcat book. My nephew needs a base to understanding his cats so he can talk to them on their level. One of his cats is deaf and is shy with it. What I tell him is small compared to what he needs to know. I don't think he can come online to come here. His mother(my si...

Re: cat books for the novice

Oh well, no gift ideas for my nephew. He is 12 and loves cats. Owns 2 of his own. His mother is a dog person. I just wanted to give him something that would last thru his life. Thank you Jan for your suggestion, I will tell him about that web site.

Re: Comet has cut on his paw pad

Anything you put on that paw will be licked away. It will heal on its own if it doesn't get infected. Which it won't if Comet takes care of it.

Re: Cat gone off dry food

If he was my cat I would think the teeth cleaning hurt him in some way. weather it is emotional or physical.
Some cat owners say it is better a cat doesn't eat dry food or hard things anyway. Most of the ingredients are not what a cat eat naturally.
Maybe in time he will eat the dry food.

I am not sure if it is the right thing to do. But with my Meuzette she lived a long time on Purinas ONE Kitten food. But she had a jaw problem too so chewing was difficult.

Re: Cat Grass ?

My cats have grass from outside as well. We grow it in the winter for tummies.
Catnip plant is growing outside but I can't keep it over winter so it is dryed stuff for them then. Catnip is good for tummies too.

Don't you think it is fasenating that cats love the home made toys the best to play with. I look around the valley of bought toys.

Oh yeah I forgot about the nueting thing. The coats in our cats today are prettier and shinnier. I was conserned about the bone structure. My last cat didn't get neutered until he was a full year old plus a few months. Maybe that is why he is big and bulky in stature. I thought it was the vitamins. ...

I was looking through one of my old cat books. The pictures of cats are from the fifties. I noticed the cats looked bigger boned and larger than the cats I seen recently.
Do you think cats bodies have changed over the years?

you have to stratagize at my house. Get Cowboy first for you won't be able to catch him if he knows you have that drop stuff. I hate Frontline.
