Felines are a very special species. Knowing about their unique needs can help you to work with your veterinarian to provide the very best in care.

Whether your interest is feeding, grooming, common health concerns, travel, or cat behavior, you will find something in here for you!

We have engaged deeply committed veterinarian writers from across North America to provide concise, practical summaries.

The Site Sections to the left take you to the three main sections of the library of articles: Cat Health Topics will lead you to articles about cat diseases, while the Caring for Cats link will lead you to interesting articles about caring for your cat at home. You and Your Cat explores the relationship between cats and people, and how we interact. The Feature Articles in the column on the right will change regularly to reflect seasonal content, stories, and news.

If you have suggestions or feedback, select the "Contact Us" button at the bottom of each page. This will take you to a form. Please send us your valuable comments. We would also love to receive stories about special cats in your life. Send us your favorite cat photos too- we'd love to share them!

Please have a look about and come back to visit often. We will be updating the material on this site regularly.
