I know I've heard that cats with like arthritis will refuse to use a litterbox along with cats who have been declawed. Any paw discomfort I guess makes the litter uncomfortable? Nothing wrong with pee pads!

yup that's a peeing posture

i had a roommate with a dog who was elderly and couldn't hold it anymore, so the roommate set down training pads for the dog to go on when she was at work.

comes across like she got picked as a target/meme, responded badly, and now every random cat comic from her will have someone randomly insult her and you're left wondering what catagory of hater they belong to.

Good to know! There's no risk of running into coconut in this coconut hating household, but i like knowing what i should dive-roll off the couch to get the cat out of, and what i should get up normally and take away

of course checking with a vet is best but with some quick checking it seems like small amounts of coconut is fine but too much will cause digestive issues and other problems because it's fatty

tried to come up with a coherent comment and all i dug up was "....roumd........" sorry your cat made me lose my mind.

defeats the purpose of pride to hide it. i wonder what organizers plan to do?

She embodies how i felt as a kid wearing a slightly itchy shirt.

I had one cat who didn't like the harness but once he associated it with outside time, he'd run over and get excited when he saw us get it out.

I dunno but I didn't have one for a while and then i did and the temperature difference is noticable. You can also swap out the glass pane for a screen in the summer.

Such a photogenic kitty!

Tough to remember, but I was loud and nonviolent, based on what i know about myself. If you see a kitten bite another kitten too hard, they yell out. I try to go "OW" when I'm training a young one not to bite, and then move away (fun time is now over). A mama cat will bat a kitten's ears for misbehaving, but I don't do that. I mostly suspect I didn't react how her instincts said I should (i didn't hunt and play with it and then eat it). Combined with the loud noise, it wasn't something worth trying again. Could've just been a coincidence, because it's not like training them out of biting where there's a clear progression to gentler biting and then licking and then a little pause when my hand is where she would normally bite it.
