I think I’ve found a new species of animal. I found it outside this morning and I think it belongs to the cat family. It’s smaller than a typical house cat, but has a long tail and its ears are kind of pointy. It seems to really like climbing trees like my housecat, Angel Tiddle Toes, does.

I offered it some cat food, and it did nibble it, but I saw it later this morning with an acorn! Angel Tiddle Toes won’t touch acorns, so I think it must be a different breed of cat.

Has anyone else seen this type of animal, or should I call the local TV stations? Do you think I could make some money from finding this new species?

Hi all, I have a controversial issue to ask you folks.

I was born and raised up in another country which is far more different than the U.S.A thus before you animal fans throwing negative comments about my action please read my post thoroughly and carefuly.

I was born in a small town in Egypt where almost every family keeping at least 1~2 cats for hunting rats. My grandparents treated them good and as a child I love my two house cats very much.

However, at my town there’s problems, we have feral (wild) cats roaming almost everywhere, these cats are very wild in terms of temperament and will attack human and our chicken. Not only they create huge feces and lice problem, but also these beasts attacked my beloved house cats and caused one of my cats lost its legs, and caused our female house cat pregnant for every mating season.

my town people always view them as vermin, and exterminating effort is strong ever. These feral cats are very resilient and hunting them involved even children such as me. I once killed a ferocious feral cats by burry it.

The problem now lies here, after 20 years spent at my hometown, I settle in Seattle and working at a Hi-tech company, but after I told my colleagues about my childhood stories, almost every1 of them looked at me as if I was some animal abuser… they now somehow kept distance from me (maybe due to my ethnicity?) But heck, I love cats, and still own a 5 year old tabby.

It seems that whenever people heard the word "cat", the only image poped up in their mind is their beloved childhood docile one, not realizing there’s another form of cat—- feral, which is a beast, ferocious and full of aggression.

What’s your opinions of my childhood action? I thought I did a grand job helping clear the feral problem and protect my house cats.
forgot to mention something, as someone advocate trap-Neuter-Return, I know it sounds very humane. However, back in the 80′s I doubt there’s any Vet in Egypt (I even doubt its existence nowadays…), and our house cats are semi free roaming ones, getting pregnant is somewhat inevitable.

One more thing to give away, my grandma simply threw the kitten born to the female cat into dumpsters since we can’t afford more than 2 cats… I don’t think her action was very cruel, coz almost everyone else is doing this. I suppose I might have to keep this part a secret since my colleagues would never accept such practice.
I might have to add more info into this:

My town was rather poor in terms of American’s standard, and even the house cats were not kept as pets. They were working animals targeting rid of rodents which is a MAJOR nuisance at our town.

My grandparents couldn’t even afford additional foods providing for cats, and they have to rely on their own to feed themselves, mostly by eating house rats and sand rats, and that’s why they must be free roaming.

The feral (wild) cats are in very close proximity to human dwelling, living under dumpsters ready to hissing&scratching at anyone getting close to them. feces, fleas and not to mention the constant fighting they have, either amongst themselves, or with other house cats. My house male cat was bitten very deeply by a feral at the leg and led to a very bad infection eventually his whole leg was mummified (No vet), and eventually replaced by another cat.

If you ever lived under that circumstance, you would probably understand why.

My 4 year old daughter got scratched last night by my house cat while I was using the bathroom. Now there is two scratches on her face. One is on the forehead and the other goes from her nose and under her eye. They are already scabbing up. I washed it when it first happened and put neosporin on it. Will these scratches leave scars? They are not that deep. I would say slightly deep. Please only help me if you are a dermatologist! Thank You!

Whenever my cat goes in heat, she always urinates around the house. Not to mention she goes into heat about 2 to 3 times a month. I cant really afford to go get her neutered/spayed right now. She’s a house cat and never goes outside. Why does she piss everywhere? any solutions?

Don’t get me wrong, this isn’t really a serious question. Me and my buddy were discussing counting calories when up jumped the cat, and we began joking about the cat counting her calories as well.

But now, just for kicks, I’m actually curious. How many calories per day does the average house cat need per day? This is an indoor cat of average size and weight, good health, and female. She’s a tortoise-shell cat, if that makes any difference at all.
Okay, guys, thanks but I’d appreciate a number.
In Kcals. ……….

I’ve been feeding a stray cat that comes around my house for a little while. He seems pretty friendly but always freezes and looks kind of scared when he hears a noise somewhere in the neighborhood. I was wondering if there is any way to tell from his behavior if he is feral or if he was born a house cat and someone just abandoned him.

well i have a house cat, we have had him for 3 years now, we got him when he was a kitten. there were 4 kittens in the litter, we took two of them, we found out about 6 months after we got them that the other two kittens in the litter had died from leukemia. Well the othercat we had (princess) was always really energetic, but she never gained a whole lot of weight, and was always pretty skinny, we just figured it was because she was so active. well about a year after we got her, she got real sick, she hardly moved or walked around ,she wwouldn’teat or drink, and she was breathing a little funny. one day she hid under the couch(which was normal for her) but it was a long time and finally my dad lifted the couch up and she was laying under there real stiff, we thought she was dead, but she wwasn’t we took her to the vet the next evening, and we had to put her to sleep.

well shortly after that we had our other cat fuzzy tested for it, sure enough he was a carrier, but it hadn’t affected him yet. well hes always been kinda lazt but he still got some exercise. well yesterday, he hardly moved at all. he stayed in one area pretty much all day. he was breathing alot (46 respirations a minute) and I dont think he ate or drank much (if anything) yesterday or today, he has been the same today, althogh he did go upstair to my bedroom this morning, and it doesnt look like hes breathing as hard. but i couldnt get him to drink anything this morning. I am so worried about him! last night i cried myself to sleep because I dont want him to die. i am so scared he will have to be put down also. ever since princess was put down I have become so attached to fuzzy and loved having him sleep with me, i just dont think I can take it if he dies. do you think theres any chance he will get better?
please dont lie
sorry its so long but i really need help
we got the kittens from family friends, there were outdoor kittens before we got them

I’m randomingly thinking of adopting a parrot or macaw because they are pretty but I own a cat and was wondering if these loud birds can defend themselves against a house cat or should I get rid of my cat before adopting a parrot or macaw?
