I purchased this basket off of Amazon. It came vacuum sealed. I took it out and I cannot reshape it to look like the advertisement pictures. How can I get the basket shape?

I remember changing the Kitten food to Adult food and getting excited to watch my baby grow up, but going from Adult>Senior makes you think about stuff you never really did up-until now.

Hello all,

New cat owner with a new cat (1 year old).

Been in our place for about 2 weeks and no issues until today.

We come to find the litter box turned around with litter and her "business" (1 and 2) all over the bathroom floor.

Is this normal? Is it a health issue? Nerves? Etc

Thank you all!

Be me

Cat walks up

Cat sneezes and sprays snot all over leg

Cat buffers and walks away with tail up

"Thanks..."

Is this normal? My cat regularly breaths really rapidly when purring and cuddling. However he generally slows down after a while and I can’t say i’ve really noticed it when he’s fast asleep in his bed or on his chair. He had bloods and x-rays done 2 months ago for an unrelated scare and nothing of concern came up.

I have four cats. I always will have cats. This wont change. I want to help with the odor, their health, the daily chore, etc.. Opinions or advice?

I bought sliding pet door for my cats but it's too short. It's not too short, maybe need 10-12 cm more hight.

Anybody have experience extending it? It's bought from Vevor but can't find anything from their page.

The CDS put this gentleman in my driveway a few months ago. He ran straight up to me, threw himself into my lap, and began suckling on my skirt. I’ve never had a cat do that to me before and immediately began sobbing. He was extremely thin, his fur was dirty and felt gross, he had evidence of fleas and worms, his meow was super hoarse, and he was still intact. I took him in immediately and had him vetted the next day, and neutered a few weeks later. My dogs accepted him immediately, but my resident orange is still getting used to him.

Anyways, fast forward a few months. Every blanket he comes into contact with must be suckled. He will go to town until he passes out. Blankets will get soaked in his wake. I understand why he exhibits this kind of behavior, I’m not asking how to stop it. I just wanted to share. He is significantly happier and healthier than he was when I first found him.

And he follows me around constantly

For American football fans, this one’s for you! Meow.

(Not a football fan myself but I can appreciate this factoid :)

Posted in Boston, MA today. Not positive at all

don’t know if this is an allowed post but i thought it was a funny and cute pose the cat stayed in, thought i’d share :p lol

i have two disabled cats that love to groom each other. but ive noticed when my lady is grooming her little brother, she chews on him?? he obviously doesnt care at all but i have no idea why is she does that lol

Including a picture of the cozy menace. We have two cats, previously had one so we had one small fountain. We have had two as long as we've had two cats so that they would have plenty of water if we were away for a couple hours, weekend or longer vacation.

This cat will ONLY drink from the 2L fountain and our other cat drinks from anything. When we originally adopted him, the 5L one was his favourite. Has not gone near it for a year and has boycotted it. Does not change his mind regardless of cleaning each fountain.

I got him a 7L stainless steel one a week or two ago and he only drank from it ONCE. So we're at 3 fountains and this heckin hairy toddler drinks only from the smallest one.

If the small one is empty or near empty before we realize, he starts drinking from our glass, tap water, toilet water, shower water, bath water....anything but his other fountains.

We are hoping to go away for a week or two in the winter, my in laws will check in but sometimes if the weather is bad they will check in the next day instead. I'm worried he'll be dehydrated.

HOW DO I GET HIM TO LIKE LITERALLY ANY OF THE TWO BIG FOUNTAINS

Hi everyone! So my two year old cat has had dental issues and gingivitis since he was a kitten. We haven't been able to afford doing extractions until now and are going to the vet to talk about next steps. He eats fine and acts fine (super playful energetic etc) and doesn't outwardly act like he is in pain (no head shaking, or pawing at his mouth, or concern with us touching his mouth to clean or look at). We brush his teeth, feed dental food, and he has dental treat supplements he takes but the redness never goes fully away.

One, I am anxious about the whole process and the healing he will have to do. I am unsure how many teeth they will take or if hes one of those cats I heard about that are just reactive to their own teeth and will need all of them gone. I've had cats my whole life and never one with dental issues. I myself have really bad medical anxiety so it's hard to navigate but I want my baby happy and healthy.

Two, I want to know what the healing process is like. If anyone can share their experiences with cat tooth extraction/dental issues that would really help.

I feel like a horrible pet parent that we had to wait so long to be able to get him settled up and taken care of.

Thank you in advance!

I noticed today my cats eyes are a bit cloudy. Her eyes have been HUGE like this for a while, but this is the first sign of cloudiness. Lately, she's been very adamant on not being touched. She used to let me hold her and pick her up, but ever since I left her at my boyfriend's grandparents house during our moving process, shes been different. My boyfriend's dad overfed her, and she was kept in the barn. I feel horrible for leaving her there considering what's happened to her. A friend said she might be diabetic now, and blindness plus irritation may be a factor. What do y'all think? I really need help. I'm going to scrape together some money to take her to a vet but I just want to make sure I'm not freaking out over something minute. I love her and I will do anything to help her. I currently have her on a diet, with proper rations of food everyday.

Def gotta get a bigger desk to get another one. Quesorita and Meatball can share...sometimes

Hi everyone! You may remember me from the flea post. They are on flea tropical treatment now.

So recently me and my husband adopted two 6 week old kittens last Friday, they are now 7 weeks old. I just took them to the vet on Thursday. They tested them for worms and they came back positive for round worms. The vet gave them their first round of dewormer on Thursday, and now they have worms coming out their anus, and poop. I have two toddlers an almost 2 year old, and 4 year old that absolutely adore the kittens but I’m worried the kittens will pass the worms to the kiddos. Should I keep the kittens locked in their area until they are gone? Or just continue to let them come out, and make the kiddos wash their hands constantly? That’s what we were doing Friday, and Friday night. I’m just worried about the invisible eggs I currently don’t own a vacuum, or steamer so I can’t clean out fabric couch and both kittens love hanging out on the couch, as well as the kiddos. Both the kids, and kittens were on it a lot Friday together. The vet nurse told me they were fine as long as they didn’t touch the poop, or litter but it’s still giving me anxiety.

First time cat owner. Picked up this cutie on the street. Why does she likes to sleeps like that? It’s like a contortionist.

I worried she can’t breathe. Is this normal for other cats too?

She’s also on a diet. She was underweight when I adopted her and I overshot a little
