hello
Just adopted an 8 month old male tabby. Neutered and vaccinated already. He is very playful but still likes to bite, problem is he is quite big already. Can anybody share with me if your cat has a biting issue and how to stop it or how long it will take for kitty to grow out of it ?
my brothers kids want to play with the cat, but its a problem if he bites ..

i recently adopted a 5 week old kitten (already have a 1year+ big boy kitty at home) so I checked on the internet and ppl say 1 litterbox per cat right? I supplied two boxes..and my kitten poos in the litter box, no problem ... but she pees on newspaper/plastic bag/under the sink. Any suggestions ? The litter box is also in the bathroom, so under the distance between under the sink and the litter box is not even 2 meters apart..

here are my kitties.

my kitten (adopted when she was 6 weeks, now she is 11 weeks) has this strange habit of eating bread. Normal ah ?

We feed her 3 times a day, mixture of wet and dry. I'm sure we are feeding her enough. But is there is bread on the table, even if it is still in the plastic she will tear the plastic until she can get the bread...

My other cat doesnt do that at all, I thought cats dont eat carbs . ...

i thought cats know if it is good for them or not ? put the bread on top of the fridge so she cannot reach now.
yesterday she ate half my muffin when i wasnt looking *sigh* even orange juice left on the table she try and drink. maybe just want to taste ?

i feed her 3-4 times a day. last visit to the vet he said no problem with her. dewormed and 1st vaccination given, 2nd one due next week.
she hungry or just greedy and kaypo ?

lol
that pic is funny

things my kitten tried to eat which i never seen any of my other cats eat before. if we are eating it or leave food somewhere she can reach she will try to eat it.
- bread
- muffin
- ice cream
- juice
- watermelon
- miso soup
- sweet potato
- seaweed (the kind you put into soup)
- cornflakes
- butter
- honey
..... sometimes i think she acts more like a dog. yesterday she picked up a piece of paper and carried if all over the house in her mouth. when my other cat wants to come near and see what she is holding she growled like a dog >.<

maybe because she is picked up from the drain ? but my older cat also adopted from the lrt station and he only will eat canned food/kibble, chicken and wheatgrass.

my cat just like to dip his paw in and chase the fish around..and drink aquarium water. i put 3 water bowls in different parts of the house but he still likes the aquarium water. maybe cos smells like fish >.<

haha i was worried that my cat is weird or something ... but now it looks like not only my cat likes to try different food.
my kitten will carry things around the house in her mouth, but hasn't learnt to fetch

but my big cat knows how to jump onto the stool and shake hands for a treat. like a miniature lion in the circus!

took my cat to the vet today for 2nd vaccination.. the vet said .. my cat .. has the teeth of a 3-4 month old. .. but the body of a 7 month old.

i think my kitty needs to go on a diet.

Hi there

I have a couple of kitties that I'd like to put up for adoption.
Breaks my heart but there is a 90% chance that I will have to move overseas in January next year so I thought it is better that I take time now to find them a home than to last minute simply give to anyone.

Both house cats, 14 month old male (neutered) and 4 month old female (was fostering her for someone after she got attacked but couldn't find her a home once she was better so ended up staying with me)
Both vaccinated and dewormed (now just need the yearly booster). No fleas or mites. Quite manja (my big boy knows how to wake me up in the morning when my alarm rings) and little one still very playful. Best if adopted together, as they have become good friends.


If anyone else know of a person who will care for 2 cats can you please help ?
I'll give the cage and all their toys and litter boxes as well.
Just need to take care and love my kitties.

Appreciate if anyone could help me look for potential homes. I really want to make sure they will be taken care of.

Some photos of my little critters:

question --- does anyone know the best age to spay a cat ?

thanks
My kitten is about 4.5 months old. Pick up from the road, so can't be 100% sure.
(Vet said she has the teeth of 4 month old but the body of a 6 month old ... )

Ready to spay? She suddenly becoming quite "noisy", I read that it could be because she is coming on heat, so best to spay before it happens

thanks all
will probably make appointment to get her spayed this weekend
do you know if there is any need to board her ?
also, i already have another cat at home (neutered male). Maybe its a silly questions, but after getting her spayed is there any need to separate them until the wound heals ?

I checked with Animal Medical centre (Jalan Tun Razak) and they said have to board for minimum one night... RM300 for spaying ......
Is this a normal price ? or is this vet just very expensive ?

thanks
I've been trying to contact them but maybe i've got the phone number wrong ? 03-40243446 but seems like it is going to a fax machine or something ...
My cat is a DSH. Rescued from longkang by some kids after being attacked by another cat. She is 5 months old now !

Before and after .. She is a bit chubby now

Got hold of Mr Krishnan on his hp, thanks very much !
My cat is scheduled to be spayed this weekend, hopefully everything will be okay

is that the one at animal medical centre ? Im not sure, but that place is quite expensive ...
You can have a look at gpet http://g-pet.com/s-boarding.html
the boarding kennel is quite nice

if you have a look at the pet store thread there are some people advertising for boarding. or you can try pet epicure (they have a fb page, so just google them). better to book early because the places are quite limited.

could try what i did for my kitten when she was sick .. i crush it up and mix it into wet food . cos she is quite greedy she ate everything without a problem. some cats are more picky, but it is worth a try

maybe your cat doesn't know how to use the post ?
I had to "teach" my cats .. when they jump on the sofa and try to scratch say "no" then move the cat to the post and hold his paws and show him he is supposed to scratch there.
My bf read that his you have to show your cat how to use it (sendiri scratch the post with your own nails in front of the cat) .. i don't know if it works (he tried it) but my cats use the post most of the time now

i got a few milo boxes from carrefour and taped them together and cut some holes out to make a maze .. my cats love it but my big kitty is kind of fat it was destroyed quite fast. but he still like to sleep in it.
