My poor ruffy either got attacked by another cat or got his leg slightly caught on something but he has a small hole like wound on the side of his back leg... But he is a good boy and lets me clean it up with some antiseptic stuff that I got from one of the vets I work at, so hopefully it will heal up in a few days!
He is good in the way that if I'm cleaning a wound and it hurts or annoyed him he doesn't bite, he will either hold my hand in his mouth but not biting down to show he isn't liking it or he licks my hand roughly.

ehm, ive got a problem here.. above are photo's of my two cats, Emmalee(the gray & white one. shes a little bigger since that photo was taken.), and Destiny(Dezzy for short cx, the calico.).
weve had emmalee for about 1 and a half years, ever since she was a kitten. emmalee developed some aggressive behavior and now the vet has prescribed her prozac. we figured out that her problem might be that she is just a very scared cat, and a little of feline hyperesthesia(twitching of the skin.). recently(within the last few weeks) we found little dezzy outside of my grandparents house. she was ridden with fleas and ticks(one was on her neck, about the size of a baby grape.) we ironically had a carrier from emmalee in the car and we brought her to the emergency vet. they diagnosed her with an upper respiratory infection, lung worms(very uncommon for my area.., and whip worms, and no leukemia! now, emmalee has had a history of peeing on my bed, the carpet, the couch, the tub, and our living chair.. we're hoping this kitten might calm her because before all of her peeing behaviors someone has visited our house, she doesn't like anyone except my mother and i.
today is a few days after the vet said dezzy could interact with emmalee without giving her the same infection she had so we introduced them. at first emmalee was very nice, just sniffing her. then she hopped on top of her and began biting her. like i said, emmalee has been aggressive with us(and still is) and we are scared to leave them alone so dezzy remains in the bathroom(where she's been 2 and a half weeks). any advice for socializing these too? i dont want either of them getting hurt!

here's my kitty, luna! she's a devon rex/shorthair mix (we got her from a breeder since my mum is extremely allergic), and she's about one year old now :3
Luna is a crazy little muffin - she runs around everywhere and loves flopping over for no apparent reason whatsoever.
I don't know if this is a normal thing since this is my first cat, but Luna twitches her tail
all the time - while we're talking to her, while she's staring out the window, when she's excited.... she's got a very expressive tail lol

Today i went the the shelter and there was a cat who kept rubbing its head on me.
What does it mean and what is the cat trying to tell you?
Thanks
It's a smell thing, both to make you smell like it and so it can sit and smell you. It's going 'yes, you are mine' c: Can also be a friendly saying hi thing.
You cannot eat love, nor buy a horse with it, nor warm your halls on a cold night

@fuzzy,
oh my! your not the only one, my cat emmalee used to pee everywhere(in my bed too..).
have you used fizzion? its a product that extracts the scent of urine/poo so the
cats aren't tempted to use that area again.
it honestly REALLY helped me, my cat has now peed inappropriately maybe.. one time in five months?
thats good considering she used to do it multiple time sin a week.
