Cat Tales

Some of the custom avatar images are missing and the script that makes them cant find them so it is showing that annoying code box. I would assume this should be fixed shortly. The site was down for a couple days due to some technical difficulties and when it came back online it had some hiccups, and this was one of them.

Cat Behavior

You could get one of those ultrasonic contraptions that makes a high pitch sound or you could go with a cheap solution of cayenne pepper on the ground, once they step on it they will lick their paws and should teach them to not go back to that location. Good luck with that, i dont like the smell either.

Cat Health

I have been working in the cat bathing industry for 15 years, if you cant get your cat to a local groomer then this is the method that i recommend doing, in these steps: Step 1: Place Cat in Bath Step 2: Rinse Cat Step 3: Shampoo your cat all over, watch the eyes though! Step 4: Rinse the cat well, dont leave any suds on the cat, this could lead to dry skin. Step 5: Dry your cat off good. Step 6: Your Done! Congrats you have just successfully washed you cat! Repeat steps 1-6 for any other cats in your household. I would recommend washing your cat every couple months or so, unless they get into something where you need to wash them right then and there. Go to a local pet store and get a gentle cat shampoo, they make many that are easy on the eyes and skin, look for one of these. Good luck!Source Link: Shampooing Your Cat
