My kitten will be 4 weeks old this Sunday. Her two siblings eat the kitten food very well by themselves; however, my kitty only wants mommy or the bottle. The problem with mommy is she doesn’t want to feed them nearly as often as before.

This is my first cat (from a kitten) and these are my first (and last) litter (3) of kittens. This particular kitten goes to her new home in just two weeks.

She will use a litter box, but is not interested in solid food.

Any advice?

Yes mommy cats is scheduled for a spay. And she is no longer nursing them at all . Mommy ignores the kittens now.

My kitten, who is about to be a year old in August started to display some odd behavior this morning. I was at my computer and she started racing around my room in a panic. The next thing I knew, there were six piles of runny,loose poo. The door to my bedroom was wide open and the door to the bathroom, where the litter box is was wide open as well. Then. As I was making my bed, I found a wet spot. Turns out she peed on my bed. She hasn’t ever had any other bathroom problems before. What could this be? Should I call the vet? Any advice is very much appreciated. Thank you.

Hi all

I have a 3 month old kitten who is VERY good at using her litter box… However i wish to train her to use the garden instead, especially when we are at home and the back door is open - any tips or tricks?

Our 12yr old female cat urinates all over the house. Usualy in the same few spots.
She hardly ever uses the litter box, and this has been going on for quite some time now.
The cat is an inside/outside cat
It is not a super friendly cat.
What do I need to provide for the cat in the room to make it feel comfortable?
Will it ever urinate in the litter box?

How can I teach my new cat to be an outside cat?

I have a boy cat that’s already about 5 years old who is an outside cat. It works out great because I don’t have a litter box. I’m thinking of getting another 6 month old boy cat. Both cats have not been neutered so should I be ready for fights too?
ALRIGHT!!! I’LL GET THEM NEUTERED SO YOU GUYS CAN GET OFF MY BACK. LOL ONE DAY CATS ARE GONNA BE EXTINCT IF WE KEEP GETTING THEM FIXED - GEESH!

I was using Tidy Cat multiple cats, but I noticed the last batch I bought (I go through about 80 pounds of litter a month) - they changed the formula. It’s more course and doesn’t control odor as well. Now (since the litter changed), one of my four cats is peeing outside the litter box. Any suggestions for a finer clumping litter that controls odor better?
