BUMP!

My Spud has a fat little belly that's developed only in the last week (I've only had her for 8 days)

I think at the pet shelter she was a bit underfed but now this pot belly looks like it's on the verge of getting out of hand. What do you guys think? Is it just kitten chub?

she must really like you. cats hardly show their stomachs, and if they show it to you, it means they want to be your friend. (that's what i've read).

Asalamu Alaikum,

They say the greatest sign of trust is when a cat will expose their tummy to you, and let you rub him there.

My old cat never let me.

Fi AmanAllah

Okay so my cat is named Spud officially but I call her....Kittybutt. Yea I know, it's weird....her name should have been Gassybutt though cuz she's super gassy... . So I heard it's recommended to give cats plain boiled rice with plain boiled chicken once in a while (no salt or anything added)...apparently nobody mentioned not to give it to a 4 month old kitten! I gave her a tiny bit last night at dinner time just to "try it out" and this morning she threw all of it up...poor baby, thank God I was here and hadn't left for class yet. She's also got the sneezes pretty bad .

Okay so.. she loves play-biting/scratching people, a nasty habit I'm trying to break. Whenever she does it I loudly say "NO!" and ignore her for a couple of minutes. Does anyone know if this or any other methods work? I hate it when she bites and scratches my hands...and today she bit my nose while I was lying down .
