Making Sure Cats Get Enough Water
Yes, and dry food is very convenient for most cat owners. The cats intestines must draw water from the rest of the body, outside of the intestine, in order to digest the dry food. This is really counter productive for feeding your cat. I had three senior cats...
Organizing Your Spice Cabinet
This looks much more organized! I have the same type of narrow cabinet as Jess does. I like the metal rack you installed below. I also had purchased two lazy Susans. One for my shelf with most of my spices. I alphabetize them so I can find them easier. Thanks...

Removing Candle Wax from a Kitten's Fur?
Have you tried using a fine comb and gently working on small sections of fur at a time? Hold the fur and skin towards her body so it doesn't pull so much. Do small sections and let let her go until the next day. Try again.
Finding Assistance After a House Fire?
I would contact your local ''Community Information and Referral'' phone number. They have a huge database of local social service organizations names and phone numbers. Have a pen and large paper handy. Sometimes you can google ''411 near me'', for information...

Athena (Tabby Domestic Shorthaired Cat)
Thank you for your sweet comment! Athena and Lucy are my girls! Did you happen to see Lucys post on this contest, too? She also has her Wonder Woman costume on. ;)
Stoping a Cat from Scratching Its Wound?
The best thing I've found is a soft e-collar that fits around the cats neck. This one is very soft fabric so the cat can move about freely, without a huge plastic cone around their head. I bought mine on Amazon, for my Lucy when I administer her subcutaneous...
Neutered Cat Spraying in the House?
I agree with the previous commenter. He is feeling that his territory is being threatened because of the new situation and the other cats. He's spraying to tell the other cats that is his territory. He will continue spraying until he feels less threatened. I...
Making Litter Box Cleaning Easier
I buy the super strong Purring 4 gallon pet trash bags on Amazons Subscribe & Save Option. They are heavier (advertised as superior Strength and they are right!) They wont leave a trail of cat litter and poop behind you when you walk out to the trash bin. Also...
Freeze a Hot Water Bottle To Cool Down
I suggest cleaning the hummingbird feeder out with soapy water and a scrub brush. The scum stays on the inside of the glass and affects the sugar water. Thanks for looking out for the hummingbirds.
Treating Cat's Crusty Eye and Chin?
It definitely looks like feline acne. Basically it's just like when we get blackheads. Try and keep it clean first of all. My vet recommended an antiseptic wipe called Pet MD Chlorhexidine Wipes with Ketoconazole and Aloe for Cats and Dogs, 50 Count Amazons...
Dishwasher Leaves Dishes Smelly?
Have you cleaned out the filter at the bottom of the dishwasher? Food collects on the stainless steel cover that lays over the drain. That as well as the medium sized cylinder gets all gunked up. Once a month, I take both pieces out and drizzle some Dawn over...
Pick Up Leftover Outside Pet Food
14 days ago, I came down to my fresh coffee, and started hearing noises INSIDE my wall, directly BEHIND my refrigerator. I heard the noise flutter, peck, peck, peck, fly, and walk around inside the rafters between my first and second floors. Our maintenance...
Teaching Your Cat to Walk on a Leash
I suggest finding one you like on Amazon. The sellers highly suggest that you measure your cat around the neck and tummy. Check each product for detailed instructions. If you try and acquaint your cat progressively and he or she doesn't seem to enjoy it, you...
Reuse Ziploc Bags for Dog Waste
They must find it offensive to come face to face and pick up their own dog's waste. Whatever comes out of the dog is the owners responsibility too.
Grilled Tuna and Cheddar Sandwiches
I love hot tuna melts with cheese; this sounds delectable! Maybe with some tasty potato chips on the side! Thanks for this die hard tuna recipe!
Feed Your Pet in the Carrier
As another post stated, I also leave my two cat carriers out and open in the living room at all times for an emergency. Also, this way they are used to them, use them as a den during colder months.
Homemade Deep Litter Box
Many cat behavior experts recommend the one box for each cat, plus one. If your other cats are being bullied while using the litter box, they may resort to eliminating elsewhere, where there is or isn't a box. The one for each cat, plus one evens the playing...

Walking Your Cat With a Leash
Yes, cats living indoors is much safer and much healthier for a cat. It's worth it for the peace of mind. I tried taking Lucy out several years ago, but she enjoyed the grass SO MUCH, we didn't get very far. Loud car noises spooked her, after that, so we stopped...
