By licking, or "bathing" themselves, they pick up loose fur, then retch.

You found a thin brown shiny long rectangle type thing on your floor that looks like some sort of feces any help on what it is?

If you have cats, it is a furball. Pick it up and throw it away. Take a white (not colored) cloth and gently scrub it with a mixture of white vinegar and water. Most times that will do it. If there is a stain, use carpet cleaner. To help limit the frequency of you cat brining up furballs, be sure to brush your cats often and vacuum.


Why are cats on every shirt at the mall?

Personally, I think it all stems from the fact that cats are NOT Justin Bieber fans. Not that long ago, if you went to your local mall, you would find racks and racks of shirts with Justin Bieber's face on them. Girls were snapping them up right and left. When cats around the world saw this, they begin to gag, coughing up large amounts of furballs. To stem this yog-fest, cats decided they could reign supreme over Justin Bieber. After all, they had already taken over the internet. How hard could it be to rule the fashion empire? Cats slowly began sneaking into the malls at night, replacing the Bieber shirts with cute cat shirts that they created. It started so slowly that people didn't realize it. But it has caught on. . . just like the cats had planned. Now, people are buying up the cat shirts, so everyone is producing them. What will be the next step in global feline domination?


Are dogs afraid of cats?

It varies a bit. There are some dogs who are quite frightened by felines, some who don't mind them at all, and others who want to pick on these furballs. I'm guessing some dogs can be scared of a cat if it had a bad experience with them when it was a puppy. I used to have a dog that some days it would seem frightened by the sight of a feline, some days not really caring about kitties, and other days chasing them around. Basically, it depends on what your dog thinks about them, it's a personal thing, not something that runs between all breeds of dogs, well, that's my opinion at least. C:
