Cats and Dogs Can Live Together in Peace

Monday, May 20, 2013 by Jenny Dean

Guest Post by Becky Wilcox

Sometimes merging two households becomes a great deal more complicated when one of the parties has a dog and the other has a cat. This is just one of many challenges and adjustments that people make when they move in together, and their beloved pets have to make adjustments as well.

Sometimes two dogs will not like each when introduced to the concept of sharing their living quarters and sometimes two cats will never seem to get along. In the best circumstances, the pets will quickly adapt and learn to like each other, playing together and not displaying any jealousy or aggressiveness when food is presented. Sometimes two pets will tolerate each other, they negotiate a truce over some issues and establish boundaries over the first few weeks that they are together. And, sadly, sometimes pets have such strong personalities or quirks that they never accept another pet in the home and the pet parents are faced with finding a different home for one of them.
It can be more complicated when introducing a new pet of a different species to a home that has been dominated by another, especially if both pets are mature and have developed their own expectations of what is “normal” to them. We wrote about tips for bringing home a new kitten in our post, “What to Expect When You Bring a New Kitten Home,” with good information for bringing home a kitten and helping them adapt to their new surroundings. It also has tips for helping two cats get acquainted. But that post assumes you are a cat person and that there is no dog present.

If you are bringing a cat or new kitten to a home that has been dominated by a dog, or introducing a new dog to a home that has been ruled by one or more cats, there are other adjustments and methods that may help. Steps to introduce a dog to a cat that worked for us:

  • Create a safe room for the cat, with litter box, water and food bowl easily accessible and keep the cat in the room at least one night.
  • Take bedding from the cat and place it next to the dog’s sleeping area, and take bedding from the dog and place it next to the cat’s sleeping area.
  • While the dog is safely inside a crate, allow the cat to enter the room and walk about freely for about an hour.
  • Take the door for a long walk and place the cat in a crate so when the dog returns it can investigate safely.
  • With the dog on the leash, have him sit in the same room as the cat in the crate and open the crate door to allow the cat to walk about. Praise the dog for remaining calm.

In my personal experience, we had a cat that ruled the home and was “imposed upon” by introducing a small dog when I took in a roommate. My cat was not very friendly toward the dog and it took about two months for them to build a truce and accept each other. They began to play together and became friends. But the first couple of days were stressful for everyone and I was not sure that co-habitation was going to work – thankfully no one was attacked or hurt, just wary of each other. What we discovered is that the dog needed to have a safe place for retreat, so we installed a dog door to allow the dog outside in our backyard. We turned to the internet to find the best dog door, and now that the dog can come and go as he needs, each pet can enjoy some privacy during the day.
 

A Fun Whale-Shaped Scratcher for Your Cat's Play Area

Thursday, April 4, 2013 by Jenny Dean

Large Black Whale Cat ScratcherCats will just love this item. The Large Black Whale Cat Scratcher is exactly what it sounds like – a product shaped like a giant whale that can be used like a cat scratching pole. Since it is shaped like a whale, your cat can actually recline on it while scratching. This is one of those discount cat toys that gives you a two-for-one deal. You get a reclining bed for your cat, along with a scratching post.

This scratcher features a design on the sides of it that resembles an Orca whale, helping to make your cat's surroundings a little more fun one toy at a time. On the top of the product is a cardboard cat scratcher including a honeycomb design to better benefit your cat. In addition to the look and uses of the pad for scratching, the overall shape of it allows your cat to conveniently recline at any time. The scratcher does not require much room for storage either as it it is only 22” in length and can be placed anywhere around the house without disturbing the flow while still being able to be used by larger cats.

To get your cat accustomed to the Large Black Whale Cat Scratcher, the product comes with organic catnip to attract your cat to it. This toy is a real problem-solver, distracting your wily cat from scratching at your furniture because he has his own furniture, which provides more entertainment than your typical cat scratcher, now.
 

 

A Great Cat Carrier at a Great Price - The Marchioro Clipper Cayman 1 Beige/Green

Saturday, March 30, 2013 by Jenny Dean

Marchioro Clipper Cayman 1 Beige/Green Cat Pet CarrierThe Marchioro Clipper Cayman 1 Beige/Green is a great buy for any pet lovers looking for a dog or cat carrier. While this item is sold as a dog carrier, it can be used easily for cats as well. In fact, many of those who have reviewed the product have used it for such. They even go so far as to compare its comfort to some cozy cat furniture out there.

This particular item is the beige/green carrier, which has a great look for any cat. Its color is not constricted to the typical pinks or blues based on gender you will often find for cats. This is also the smaller of the Marchioro Clipper Cayman designs so while it has been made for smaller dogs, it's great for different sizes of cats. According to one reviewer, her 15 pound cat is able to fit into the carrier easily and even sleep in it as if it were a bed! If you're looking for beds for cats that can double as a travel carrier, this is the right product for you.

In addition to its coziness and size, the Marchioro Clipper Cayman 1 is accepted for airline travel so you won't have to stress as much if you want to take your cat on vacation with you!

One reviewer of this product in particular has nothing but good things to say about having to take her cats to the vet using it. Its design allows for it to be taken apart while the cat is actually in it. She discusses how she is able to set the carrier with her cat in it on a table and then slowly take it apart, leaving only the base. This simple deconstruction process actually helps to calm her cat from its normally agitated state while visiting the vet. Keeping her in the base of the carrier provides a sort of familiarity that is typically lacked on such visits!

Next time you're looking to purchase some discount cat toys, consider spending that money on this product instead especially since it is apparently being phased out. It's a great investment.
 

 

A Sleek and Modern Take on Cat Beds

Friday, March 29, 2013 by Jenny Dean

PEI POD PET BED MINT The Pei Pod Pet Bed is an absolutely deluxe design for the cat who loves to lounge in luxury. These beds for cats come in the shape of the egg and are a pastel mint color. The product is made of high-density polyethylene and is recyclable. So not only will you be investing in a bed that is durable and easily cleaned, you will also be doing your part to stay environmentally conscious. It is also easily to clean the entire pod, requiring only a wet cloth and some soap of your choosing. This is one of the few cat products out there that requires little maintenance and is rather basic but will fulfill your little friend's needs.

This egg pet bed comes with a cute yellow cushion with a white polka dot pattern to add a bit of funk to the look of it. This cushion can be washed in a machine without problem as long as the gentle cycle option is used and the pillow is air dried rather than machine dried. Like the bed itself, the pillow is also recyclable. Cats up to 18 pounds, as well as small dogs, can fit into the Pei Pod Pet Bed. Its overall design makes this bed one piece of unique cat furniture that serves its function well without being too gaudy.

The company providing this product reminds users not to place the bed on any elevated surface. This bed is designed to be placed on the floor due to its shape, so do not purchase it if you're looking for cat perches instead.
 

 

 

Looking for a Cat Carrier That Can Double as Furniture?

Monday, March 18, 2013 by Jenny Dean

MARCHIORO CLIPPER CAYMAN 2 BRN

Marchioro Clipper Cayman Pet Carrier once again provides a great design for carriers. This is the Marchioro Clipper Cayman 2 in brown. This product is 21 x 14 x 13 inches and weighs only 2 pounds, making it great for airline travel. For those looking for carriers comparable to beds for cats, this is a great buy. It has been designed for optimum space, leaving room for multiple cats, pillows, cushioning, and anything else you'd like to put in there.

Since this carrier was made for dogs, this medium size can fit quite a few cats in it. If you've got a big cat, this is also a great fit. Even the smaller version can fit a 15 pound cat in it comfortably. A great way to get your cat comfortable with this new piece of unique cat furniture is to leave it out in the room with cushioning in it. This will allow your buddy to come and go as he pleases and become more accustomed to the carrier before being taken to the vet in it. Since going to the vet can be a frustrating and scary experience for your lovely ball of fluff, it's good to ease him or her into the situation. Being shoved into a box and taken to an unfamiliar place would be frightening for anyone.

In addition to being able to double as cozy cat furniture, this model is incredibly easy to take apart and re-assemble. If you don't have much space in your living arrangements, you can disassemble the carrier, store it, and re-assemble it when necessary. Its harder outer shell is also great because it does not easily warp or become bent, ensuring that it will last years to come.
 

 

What to Expect When You Bring New Kitten Home

Sunday, March 17, 2013 by Jenny Dean

A Ragdoll Kitten Care Guide: Bringing Your Ragdoll Kitten HomeIt's extremely exciting to find yourself bringing home a new friend and member of the family. Unfortunately, this kind of change can be very nerve-wracking for the kitten, as well as other pets you might have in your home. Make sure you have plenty of cat toys for your new friend, although he or she may show no interest in them in the beginning. This is completely normal because stress can affect cats (and even us) in different ways. Likewise, your furry friend may not want to eat at first due to this anxiety. Have no worries! Just make sure you do keep cat food and some water out for him when he starts to feel comfortable enough to eat and drink. The important thing is that he drinks enough water. If he doesn't eat for the first day, that's ok. If this goes on for an extended period of time, however, call up your vet and explain the situation. It doesn't hurt to check in. Keeping some cat snacks on hand can also prove to be helpful.

If you do have other cats, you'll want to take the kitten and put all of his stuff (litter box, food, bed) in one smaller room for the first day or so, but make sure that the litter box is as far as possible away from the food. This will allow your new cat and old friend to get used to each other under the door. They will play with each others' paws without having the ability to hurt one another. This will also play into their natural curiosity as you have them thinking, "who's this behind that door? I must know!"

The problem with introducing your cats is that they can be quite hostile toward each other so you really need to keep an eye on them when they're around each other or things could get messy real quick! It is recommended that you do put a bed for your new kitten in a small enclosed area so that he feels he has his own private space. Kittens are easily overwhelmed, so giving him the option to retire to a calm, dark area will keep him from feeling on edge.

For more advice on choosing the right food and furniture, check out any cats book on the subject. When you bring home a new kitten, make sure you have provided essentials like a litter box and food and water. Besides that, speak calmly and soothingly to your new pal to warm him up. Don't be too worried if he's a bit aloof at first; just do what you can to ease his fears!
 

Finding the Perfect Cat Window Perch

Saturday, March 16, 2013 by Jenny Dean

Has anyone ever met a cat who didn't like window perches? For a long time, cat window perches have been available to give your lovely pet visual access to what's going on outside. Cats are very curious creatures, and buying a perch can provide them hours of entertainment as they sit mesmerized by birds flying from tree to tree and children playing in yards. This is incredibly helpful if you have an indoor cat. You want your buddy to be safe inside, but you don't want to deprive him of all the good things nature has to offer.

K&H cat window perch Many of the perches available also double as a cat window bed. This is great because instead of buying a perch and a cat bed, you can spend money on one that can be used as both. K&H offers a few different types of these 2-for-1 deals in various colors to best match your living space - like the K&H Kitty Sill Deluxe Bolster Cat Bed, 14-Inch by 24-Inch, Tan Kitty Print . Even if you don't buy a model specifically made to function as a bed as well, it's likely that if your perch is carpeted, you'll catch your cat napping on it. It may not seem like the most comfortable spot to us, but it must have something going for it if our cats insist on sleeping there!

SmartCat Multi-Level Cat Climber Some cat climbing trees can also serve as window perches. Many of them feature designs with carpeted shelves at one foot intervals. If you set these trees next to the window, your cat will actually be able to lounge on a lower shelf or even climb up for a better view. SmartCat has a multi-level climber that is sure to catch your cat's attention - SmartCat Multi-Level Cat Climber .

Help! I'm Exhausted! How Do I Stop My Cat From Waking Me Up at 6:30 a.m. Every Morning?

Monday, February 18, 2013 by Ragdoll Cat Stories

Ragdoll CatMopsie is my 10 1/2 year old rescue kitty. She's such a sweetie! I have had cats most of my life, but this is the first ragdoll that has owned me, for truly that is what happens when you acquire a cat.

My question, and I hope someone has an answer, is: how do I break her of waking me 6:30 a.m. every morning?? Evidently her previous ownee was an early riser and Mopsie was fed promptly in the wee hours. I don't mind so much on weekdays, but sometimes on the weekends I stay up later and need to sleep!

Don't tell me to go to bed earlier. My husband is the other Love of my life and he is a night owl. I try to stay up with him as late as I can so we can have quality time together.

I have tried ignoring her, but although she normally has a meek voice she can be quite vocal if she wants something. And the other morning I made the mistake in my sleep of sticking my foot out from under the covers. She nipped my toe to awaken me, which I did with a start! Another waking habit she has is to paw at the door. It doesn't matter if I leave it ajar for her to come and go as she pleases, she does it anyway, sometimes shutting the door in the process.

Please give me some suggestions. I am afraid I am losing my sanity with my lack of sleep. This has been going on now for 5 months, ever since we took her in and I am sllep-deprived.

Thank you in advance for any help you or your readers might give me...

Let's face it: cats can cause some odor and stain issues.

While it easy to manage keeping your place clean with one cat, when you have multiple cats, it becomes more of a problem. The Fizzion spray can be used even to remove odors from the beds for cats that you have in your house. When these items aren't cleaned regularly, they will cause your house to stink. While you won't catch your cat cleaning up the place, he still wants a home that is stink-free.

The Fizzion spray comes with a bottle and a Fizzion tablet. You will fill the bottle with warm water and then place the tablet in it. After waiting 30 seconds, you'll be able to remove stains and odors from everywhere, including your cat playpens, beds, and climbing trees for up to 18 months after you've mixed the solution. That's 18 months of not having to worry about your couch, bed, or house in general smelling of cat urine or having stains everywhere. For its price, you really can't beat the Fizzion Pet Stain & Odor Remover.
