Cat Anxiety After Tornado
My son and I have an almost 2 yr old that we've had since we rescued her from a box when she was barely weaned. She's always been the perfect mix of personalities-independent streak some days, then cuddly the next. She's completely indoors, and we've never really limited her access to us. When we do...

Cat over grooming Resulting in Bald Spot
My cat always liked grooming/cleaning herself. Just a few weeks ago, I noticed a bald spot slightly above her right leg with a scab. I took her to the vet who said it was due to stress and that she was overgrooming that one spot resulting in the hair loss and scab.

What to do with an aggressive feral cat
I’ve fed a feral for a year twice a day on my porch. He has a warm mat and a cat house on porch wall. He’s been aggressive towards me recently - hissing and posturing when I come out the door in to the porch. This is scaring me - should I take away the mat or stop feeding him?

Neutered male cat mounting female kitten
We have just adopted a 6-month old female kitten and find that our neutered 2-year old male is attacking her, biting her neck, and attempting to mount her. Is this normal "neutered male cat" behavior?
