Pet Horoscopes - ARIES: (3/21-4/20): Aries cats are always bursting with energy. They love attention, petting and cuddling and are never shy. In fact, it may be hard to keep up with these hyperactive animals. Quick tempered, they are not the type to back down from a fight. They are easily embarrassed, so don't scold them in public. Reward good behavior with a special snack. Never give your cat "people food." Strong flavored and spicy treats are their favorite. The most difficult aspect of keeping an Aries cat is to get them to obey you. They may be difficult to housebreak. Firmness, a schedule, and repetition is what is needed.

She has a variety of physical needs. She also has a psychological and emotional life that bears consideration throughout the life span. Every cat is different but here are some basic guidelines for a healthy and happy feline life.Basic Physical Needs Cats need good food, clean water, and a clean litter box. It sounds simple but when you consider complex health needs and the preferences of each cat, it's good to consider the following. Healthcare Cats need regular veterinary visits to keep up with their vaccination schedule and to monitor their overall health. Most vaccinations are on a yearly schedule and are crucial for helping to prevent serious diseases. A monthly flea and tick treatment is very important for skin health and allergy prevention even if your house is impeccably clean. Enrolling your cat in a healthcare plan will help lower these costs as well as costs during illness or an emergency. The Best Cat Diet A diet that best meets your cat's nutritional needs will help prevent illness and disease and behavioral problems. Cats ingest water best through the intestine so moist food is much better for them than kibble. Even if fresh water is always available as it should be, your cat can develop urinary tract problems and bladder obstruction on a purely kibble diet. Your cat's teeth and gums aren't helped by kibble, either. Regular brushing and a healthy diet are best for the teeth and gums. The best diet for cats is a raw formula specifically formulated for cats. Cats in the wild hunt animals and their diet is made up primarily of whole animal protein including all the fluids therein. The raw meat is perfectly safe for the cat's digestive system but does require proper handling and room in the freezer at home.

Gallery 1 Gallery 2 Gallery 3 Focus On Cat HealthWhat to Give a Cat as a LaxativeWhat to Give a Cat as a Laxative -- powered by eHow.com As Old as He Feels – Caring for Your Elderly CatThey say old age creeps up on a person like a thief in the night. This is especially true of your cat. Cats seemingly race through adolescence and adulthood, and suddenly at around 8 years of age, they are entering their golden years. As our cats age, they may have specific needs or problems that must be addressed. The aging process brings about a gradual decline in a cat's physical and sometimes mental abilities. Becoming aware of these issues allows you to provide the best possible care.Not all cats age at the same rate. A cat's biological age depends upon genetic background, the quality of his diet, his general state of health, and the quality of his living conditions. Research estimates that old age for cats begins somewhere between the 8th and 9th birthday. This is the equivalent of about 55 human years. Ideally, caring for the geriatric cat should focus on preventive measures. Whenever possible, it is better to prevent a problem from occurring, rather than to wait for a problem to develop. Detecting diseases in the early stages greatly improves the outcome. Different cats have specific risk factors that influence the diagnostic approach to geriatric medicine. Characteristics of the breed, genetics, environment, and lifestyle of your cat may put him or her at greater risk of developing a particular disease or other age-related changes. Continue Reading The Ten Most Common Cat Tumor SymptomsIt's difficult to watch your suffer from cancer, and even harder to choose a course of therapy, like cat chemotherapy or radiation, to try to improve the situation. However, for older cats, many veterinarians recommend against treatments like chemotherapy, as they can be less effective. Age Is an Important Factor for ChemotherapyWhen he was a kitten, you never had to worry about recovery time. One minute your kitten had a cold, the next she was bouncing off the walls. Recovery time is increased with age, and it takes longer for your cat to heal. As a result of the cancer, your cat may have suffered damage to his or her immune system. Before setting on a course of chemotherapy, understand that the procedure includes pumping chemicals into your cat's system, causing sickening side effects. Your cat may not be able to recover from the drugs themselves. Consider Other Options for Older Cats Continue Reading Yellow Kitten VomitAlthough it's not unusual for most cats to vomit at certain times throughout their lives, any time you notice a kitten vomit it's important to be aware of the fact that there may be a problem with your cat. Because of the fact that kittens are generally much more fragile than adult cats in terms of their overall health and ability to deal with outside issues and concerns, even diseases and conditions that might be minor in other cats will prompt kittens to suffer from major episodes. Read on for a brief guide to the potential causes and treatments when you notice your kitten vomiting up a yellow substance.Feline Distemper In many cases, when a kitten vomits up a yellowish substance it is a sign of a very serious and often fatal condition called feline distemper. Known officially as feline panleukopenia, this disease is common among young cats and is typically quite serious. It can be passed from a mother cat to her kittens through milk and other natural hormones and chemicals. It is also highly contagious and can easily spread from kitten to kitten in a litter as well. Although there is a vaccine against this condition, if it is not given in time and your cat is in an area where he may be exposed to other cats, he is at high risk for contracting this condition. In addition to yellowish vomit, there are many other signs that you should be aware of if your pet has distemper. Watch out for the following symptoms: •Fever •Diarrhea, oftentimes tinged with blood •Hardening of skin texture •Paleness of gums, tongue, lips and nose •Lack of appetite •Refusal to drink water •Lethargy •Comatose state Other Issues Regarding Yellow Vomit Continue Reading Treating Cat Seizures With PhenobarbitalPhenobarbital is the number one choice of anti-convulsants for recurrent and uncontrolled feline seizures (such as in epilepsy). It functions as a muscle relaxant and a depressant, thus effectively quelling seizures and helping to stabilize the cat.Cat Epilepsy vs. Cat Seizures Seizures are a symptom, and usually caused by a disease other than epilepsy. A cat that has a seizure may not necessarily have epilepsy. Feline seizures can range from unusual mood swings to violent physical convulsions, and often will have an underlying cause. Cancer, metabolic diseases, inflammatory disease or trauma may cause them. Many times, recurrent seizures and fits will vanish after another disorder has been treated. Epilepsy is the disease described as recurrent and uncontrolled seizures that have no apparent cause. There are two types of epilepsy: idiopathic (primary) epilepsy, and symptomatic (secondary) epilepsy. The first applies to "classic" epilepsy - seizures with no known cause. Trying to prove primary epilepsy is difficult, as cats are more susceptible to seizures when infected with a disease than other animals. More often than not, the epilepsy is the second, more common type of epilepsy that happens when the recurrent seizures become identified as the manifestation of an underlying problem. As seizures (epileptic or not) are usually caused by a nervous system malfunction, a series of tests are required to properly diagnose the condition. Once diagnosed, phenobarbital may be prescribed to ease the convulsions, while additional medication may be needed to treat the actual disorder causing the seizures. Phenobarbital for Cats Phenobarbital is the most widely used barbiturate (nervous system depressant) worldwide. It comes in three forms: tablet, liquid and injection. For cats, injection is the most common method of administration, followed by liquid medication. Phenobarbital has an extraordinarily long half-life, so for many cats, a daily dosage is not required. This is particularly true after several weeks of medication, and the phenobarbital has built up in the cat's system. Phenobarbital Side Effects Continue Reading Focus On Cat BreedsHow To Care for Himalayan CatsCaring for Himalayan cats is similar to the care for most feline breeds. However, there are a few unique factors to consider if you are planning to make a Himalayan cat part of your family.1. Himalayan cats are actually a subcategory of the Persian breed. Persian cats were bred with Siamese cats to acquire their beautiful coloring. Himalayans have the characteristic flat faces and long fur of the Persian breed. Their bodies are well-muscled and lean, despite the puffy appearance. 2. Himalayans tend to have gentle and sweet temperaments and make good pets for many different kinds of families. They tend to have relaxed natures, but also to be playful and active. As a breed, they are affectionate and sweet, if a bit fickle. 3. As with all cat breeds, it is important to provide good basic care for your pet. Your Himalayan should always have fresh water available, be fed healthy food and have access to a clean litter box. Of course, your kitty also needs love, affection and entertainment. 4. A Himalayan's long fur does require some extra care. First, remember that your cat may be sensitive to overly warm weather since he has a very warm coat; make sure you do not leave him ina home without air-conditioning during hot summer months. Alternately, some people get their Persian cats shaved during warm weather, often leaving the ruff and tail untrimmed in a style known as a "lion cut." 5. In addition, a Himalayan cat's fur requires special attention when it comes to grooming. While short-haired cat owners can get away with only an occasional brushing, your Himalayan will need grooming daily. Use a soft brush to remove knots from the cat's fur and to remove excess fur.

Siamese is the most familiar (specifically, a Siamese without points), but Oriental can also refer to Japanese Bobtail, Burmese, and Balinese to name a few. Oriental cats are either longhaired or shorthaired and come in nearly 300 varieties of colors and markings. Longhairs do not require much brushing of the coat and it does not tend to mat making it one of the lower maintenance longhaired breeds. However, longhair varies are known to have problems with fleas so it is important to introduce baths early on in case a flea bath becomes necessary. Shorthairs have a coat that lies close to the skin and is described as silky.
