Reader requests more cat-focused content

Updated Dec 8, 2024

Dear Cathy,

Each week, I read your column and rarely find postings about cats. Your column is mainly about dogs. I love dogs, but I have a cat and would like you to post more information about cat behavior, medical information, problems, etc.

– Gloria, New York

Dear Gloria,

Over the last few months, I have answered dog and cat questions fairly evenly. But thanks for keeping me on my toes and making sure I don’t play favorites. You don’t have to wait for someone else to ask a question about cats though. This is a question-based column, so let me know your questions or concerns about cats or any other pets, and I will be happy to respond.
