i know it sound quite funny though, that my cat when i adopt him(> 12 mth), he always pee in his sandbox, now( 1 year already) since he mingle/interact with other cats in my neighbourhood, he pee all over my yard by lifting his tail up...hm,i thinking that when he sees his so called friends doing it(other cats), he follows or is it a natural mature thing where all male cats when after quite sometimes they pee like that..
i heard this thing called territory where they marking something new with their own smells.. nyway,is it too late for me to neutered my cat which is 1 year old? afterwards,can he stop squirting around my yard..

halo~~this is my cat the name is Bunga...3-5 months old...^^...say halo~~

thats normally what happened if your cat is not neuter. not territory, but they are spraying their male smell everywhere. a horny male or on heat male will always do this.

u need to neuter them, so they won't turn on with sex no sex means no spraying.

it is not too late to neuter your cat... my oldest male cat going for neuter at his age of 4 years old.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009 TO ALL CATS



"The Pink Room"

pink room?what does that mean?does that mean this room for girls oni?

thats mean the room is for fur-kids... btw, that is my cats room.

like if u have children (daughter or son), of course your want their room to be fancy for kids right

thanks for the tips and brief explanation..make sense though, coz last nite i was spying on my cat outside (he's in the cage) and never stop meowing..sometimes in high tone..and i spot another cat visitor..and suddenly my cat is hyper-active and cannot duduk diam wandering in the cage so as to release him..funny thing bila paws dia jolok2 kuar dari cage,as if please...

Well, I just bought long hair cat today, white in color, sebelum nih pernah ade seekor, tp mati (raya Haji) sebab xjaga dgn betul. Dah lame teringin nak ada kucing bulu kembang nih, especially my mum. Byk bela sebelum nih sume kucing biase jek (senang nak jaga). So I just want to ask ppl in here, expertise² how to take care this type of cat properly. Regarding food, i just saw IAMS (will try the brand) also good to give other than Frieskies and Whiskas. If i change the food, for example currently give Friskies, bila dh habis package nih, tukar bagi Whiskas, and so on. Is it OK to cat? And for supplement, like vitamin, what easy and good type to give? Drinking water, air paip or air masak is better because my previous cat prefer air paip rather than air masak. Then, how to clean and maintain his mouth? I saw his teeth like have a little yellow in color, other things, which is better, fish base dry food or chicken and meat?is it ok to send for health check once a month?...and if u all have any other tips from ur side about taking care of ur own cat and maintain their health, do share with me...(^____^)

Good luck in your process of neutering your cat

its very stressful for them when the mating season come.

Any1 knw formula to DIY own spray to kill flea?
Cause planning to kill all the fleas in entire house but no money buy so many frontline

First of all, congratulation for having a new cat and welcome to cat lovers home

ya agree that short hair is far easy to take care than the long hair cats.

Food.
Iams is among the cheapest premium food. you can also try Science Plan, royal canin. This 3 brands are easy to get in the petshop. of course there are also other premium brands, but not all shop selling it. Whiskas and Frieskies is not premium nor super premium cat food. it is among the low quality because the ingredients are more towards grains and corn but less meat.

Super premium = like Orijen, Innova Evo = Expensive = 100% meat 0% grains, which means the best among all.

Premium = like iams, science plan, royal canin = average price but royal canin still expensive = more meat less grains.

Low quality = whiskas, friskies, smarthear, manja, etc. = cheap as can be found in supermarket = more grains & corn, very less meat.

Yes you can change your cat food, but do it by mixing the old food with the new brand food. example if you cat is currently eating PRODUCT A, but you feel like changing to PRODUCT B, now you need to mix 80% Product A with 20% Product B. Slowly decrease the Product A day by day, until its completely PRODUCT B. Actually you can find this on the cat food packet, i think i saw this manual on friskies and whiskas pack.

In my opinion, it is better for you to feed your cat atleast premium food. If he is a kitten, then buy kitten food. This is up to your budget.

More about food, please check out this website:
common questions about feeding your cat

feeding your cat the right way

Good nutrition for your cat

---

Supplement, vitamin, etc.
First of all, ignore all of this. What you need to do is visit veterinary. Do medical checkup again parasites, vaccine, and deworm your cat. If you already feeding good food at least premium type... you can skip all this supplement, vitamin, etc.

My point is, rather than you spend too much on supplement & vitamin, might as well you go buy expensive food right.

---

Drink/water.
Prefer filter water or air masak. please "air paip" please.

---

Cleaning mouth
The yellow yellow thingy is TAR. you need to wash this by using cat tooth brush and cat tooth paste (can be found at petshop). or else, during bath, get a piece of small towel, and slowly rub the towl on your cat teeth.

If you cat is suffering from bleeding gums, or reddish blood color gums, and very bad tar on teeth, you need to do scaling at the veterinary. YES! it is expensive. so better take early action on mouth and teeth of your cat. because most cats owner ignore this part.

You can refer to this website:
how to cure cat bad breath

beside the mouth, you must also clean the ears. refer to this website = cleaning cats ears

and lastly nail care, click here http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=Post...&qpid=22631564= trimming your cats claws

---

Fish, chicken, and meat.
The best is Chicken, then meat, and the worst is fish.

you can feed them raw chicken or meat. also you can half boil the chicken and meat for them. but never put any "perisa". just empty water for boiling will do. Not too cock, medium cook is alright

If you want to feed fish, try to avoid tuna. All fish must be boil till it 100% cook.

---

Veterinary visit.
One time a month is SO GOOD. you cat will be like paris hilton and britney spears if you can afford why not. Your cat will be smiling every month eheheh.
Again, rather than spending money on TOO MUCH visit to the vet, why not buying expensive cat food?
It is best to visit the vet every 3 months. you can also deworm your cat every 3 months.

---

Neuter/Spay/Kembiri
It is best to neuter you cat at early age, to avoid mating season, loud vocal sound, stress, and spraying. Check out this website = neuter spay your cats

---

Attention and toys
Beside caring for the best of your cat, you need to give them attention. toys is a must for indoor cats. You might not want your cat to end up commit suicide because of bored, and moody.

---

Last but not least, you can refer to The Cat Zine for more guide lines and tips.

I think u need to frequently vacuum and mop your house floor with clorox. but please make sure your cat is not around when u doing this. they might end up licking the clorox .. mix it with some water before mop.

carpet? you need to send this to the dobi for cleaning.

when you want to kill fleas in the house, you need to kill fleas on your pets too... no point cleaning the house but not your pets. fleas is a smart parasite, they will run and jump to your cat to safe for life.

wah...really thanks for that info...really helpful, thank u so much...
(^___^)

No problem nanti snaps gambar kucing tu ye

right.....

El, i really like your idea on the cat's relax place like in the pink wall where gabby and etc relax.
