Thank you all for your kindness. It has been a hard few months here with two cats now missing. I am still holding out some hope for Frankie to come back. Brady is never, ever going outside. We all are watching him like a hawk now!

Deesandy, there could be many reasons, but mostly because kitty is sick and needs to get to the vet STAT!



Jennifer - I love your babies!!! They are so sweet!!

Cats stop eating because something is wrong! Get her to a Vet ASAP!

Thanks for the compliments on my babies! They are so different in personalities but I wuv them both the same! They are both very, very spoiled...

Dee, did you mom recently change the kitty's food or did something new come into the house or has the routine changed? These are all things that send my delicate Heidi into a tailspin...I know what to look for in her because I have had her to the vet but I agree with everyone else, go get the kitty checked out by a vet but be sure to note with the vet if anything is new or different.

A new BB poster, Delightawaits, posted this in the BB area...I thought I would post here, it sounds like a great site!!!

By the way, this is OT but I looked at your profile. What a gorgeous cat! You should take a picture and send in to the Infinite Cat Project!
http://www.infinitecat.com/ (I'm not associated wtih them in any way, it's just a cute and fun site for cat people... if it needs to be removed, I trust a mod will properly spank me and do the deed! heh)

Delightawaits was referring to my cat I'm very proud to say. (Thanks, Delight.) Besides being aesthetically attractive, he's got a charming "personality." And he loves to be cradled like a baby and have his tummy rubbed.

HELP!! I got a bag of catnip in the mail with the advantage for our cat. The only cat nip I've used before was inside a toy. You can just let the cat eat it by itself, can't you? I'm going to go and try to find the answer, but I thought I'd ask here. You guys are usually faster than a speeding search engine... LOL! :-)

Nope MGA - have never let my cats eat catnip. Like you said, it has always been inside a toy.

Careful ok?

Especially since you received the catnip in the mail.

I've done both. They play with toys that have it inside, and they've also eaten it raw from the plant. ( A girl I know grows it.)

I've also dusted toys with it on the outside and let them have it.

Don't know if it's right or wrong, but they never got sick.

I actually grew some once on my kitchen window box and came home from work one day to find dirt all over the kitchen floor and not a sprig of catnip to be found. Just some very pooped out cats! They must have played themselves out that day. They were perfectly fine though.

LOL! When I get it fresh, I keep it in the oven.

I don't use it and it's the only thing the kids haven't figured out how to open.

I have a bag of catnip too (rather I HAD)
but they found it one day while I was at work, ripped it open and ate to their hearts content. (And got it all over my carpet!)
It's okay to let them eat it. To this day, they will roll around on the part of the carpet that had that on it months ago!

Eddie gets catnip alot. Our old vet said it helps with his tummy problems. Where we used to live in the country we had alot of catnip growing wild all over. Eddie didn't care for the fresh catnip but we sure had alot of cats that hung around our house!

Is that Eddie in your profile, Serate? I love how he sleeps, LOL. My little Persian girl sleeps "belly up" too. I've heard that's a sign of a very secure cat if they expose their belly while they're sleeping.

Yes Cassie that's my Eddie. He sleeps on his back alot. That pic was when my 12yr nephew and 10yr niece were here. They tuckered him out.

Secure? Yep. He knows he runs the place and is king!
