What if your male cat keeps jumping on female cat?

This behavior is likely due to your male cat trying to assert dominance or is attempting to mate with the female cat.

Consider neutering the male cat to reduce this behavior and help maintain a harmonious environment between your cats.

Do cats like some people better than others?

It really depends on who the owner is and things like that, But if It likes there owner more than you, you should understand that. It's different with if it has no owner, and depends on the Animal's mood and Yours. Animals can sense your different moods. If you are angry, they might be more afraid than if you were calm. If you annoy the animal then it is not going to like you, and may even be scared of you. If you annoy the Animal and the other person doesn't, the animal will most likely like the person who does NOT annoy it. Animals (more intelligent ones like dogs and cats) CAN recognize different people and may take a liking to one more than the other.

What are the symptoms of a cat in heat?

Virtually all breeds have two oestrus cycles each year. Initially, the vulva swells and within a day there is a clear discharge, which becomes tinged with blood the next day. This discharge increases in intensity and then slowly diminishes, ending after about ten days. During this time the female becomes more alert and urinates frequently, leaving signals of her impending willingness to mate. Ovulation takes place soon after the discharge has stopped. Only now will the female accept mating. Hormonal changes occur regardless of whether a female is pregnant, which is why there is no simple blood or urine tests to confirm impending motherhood.

What can cause blood in the urine of a female cat?

You need to take your cat to the vet immediately. Blood in urine usually means Cystitis (inflammation of the bladder), or some other bladder problem. This condition, much like human bladder infections, is very painful for the cat and in some cases (such as a blockage) can be life-threatening if not treated.

Cats usually develop urinary infections from stress or not drinking enough water and the urine becomes too concentrated. This can occur if the cat is fed only dry food (a cat has evolved to get moisture from its food and so have a low "thirst drive") or overly stressed.

The most important treatment, aside from vet-prescribed pain killers (and antibiotics if an infection is present), is to increase your cat's water intake. Feeding wet food instead of dry, adding a little extra water to the wet food and/or providing a water fountain to entice the cat to drink more water are very good options. Even adding "flavoured water" such as juice from canned fish to food or water will help entice a cat to drink.

What to do for a cat that's in heat?
