You have heard all the cat myths. Do cats have nine lives? You have watched your cat do quirky things. Why does your cat follow you to the bathroom? We live with these tiny predators, yet we do not truly know them. What do they really need to eat? How do their minds work? Cats are still an enigma. How do you keep your cat fit and healthy? If it is related to cats, I will relate it to you! Together we will explore all aspects of the “cat-o-sphere” and learn everything we can about cats from all kinds of cats-perts and me, Dr. Kat! Let’s laugh and learn and make cat lives better together on Nine Lives with Dr. Kat.

New cat
Sadly I have to announce that I lost my tortie to cancer. Started in the mammary gland and spread to lungs. After a few weeks I adopted a cute female orange and white tabby kitten.
She’s 9 months and I’ve had her for almost a month.
She still doesn’t recognize her name and I use it all the time. She also attacks my feet at night.
She sneezes a lot and when I mentioned it to the vet she asked what the temp is in my house and said that @ 74 degrees she should be fine.
However she has the body size of a 6 month old. Should I do something different?
How can I get her to leave my feet alone and do I need to reward her for doing the things I want including responding to her name?
I haven’t had a kitten before. Kim was already an adult.
