    Determining the age and condition of a stray cat

    Thanks! His surgery all went well. He doesn't seem to be in any pain whatsoever. hes sleeping curled up on the armchair next to me right now. He started eating the second I brought him inside. He headed straight for where his bowls are. He is acting a bit different. He was really unsure of this...

    Does he have feline herpes, or something else?

    I'd imagine they would have asked if he was feeling better before having me bring him in if they were looking at his charts. I should have probably said something... but hopefully it's not a big problem. He has improved some amount though just like you said about your Persian. His symptoms sound...

    I did post this in the health section... 30 views... no replies...pertaining to his herpes symptoms and him getting neutered today. Ed was very sick when I found him. His symptoms include sneezing (sometimes clear but sometimes white snots that get stuck in his whiskers and it's interesting)...

    Does he have feline herpes, or something else?

    Hello! My cat, Ed, is 11 months old. When I found him at a friends house in a rural area the vet said he was roughly 9 months old. He was very sick when I found him. His symptoms include sneezing (sometimes clear but sometimes white snots that get stuck in his whiskers and it's interesting) also...

    Determining the age and condition of a stray cat

    they didn't give me any antivirals. i feel like he will improve more quickly than you said Flowerbelle did because he didn't have so many problems. His eyes aren't even very bad to begin with. Thats some love and dedication medicating her 11 times a day for 7 months! I'm glad she got better. At...

    Also, as I might have mentioned, I'm a college student living away from home. At home I have two cats already, Mittens and Ebony, females, neutered, 13 going on 14 years old. My mom got them from a local shelter for me and my brother on Christmas Eve when I was 7 and he was 4. They were the last...

    Determining the age and condition of a stray cat

    Today was his appointment. I decided to begin harness training with him today as well because he tore up my arm so bad when I put him in his carrier that I'd like to end that chapter of his life and get him on a leash. I just let him wear the harness around the apartment for a few hours. He...

    Determining the age and condition of a stray cat

    Hey everyone! I just thought I'd update on Ed since I disappeared for a while. He hasn't been scratching himself since I got him the Advantage. I take it that this means his flea problem is taken care of. I have some pictures I'm going to attach to the end of this. I think he's grown and filled...

    Determining the age and condition of a stray cat

    I got him Frontline Plus.... and the doc also gave me a pill for him. I forget what it was called. It was $3 though. Since I put the Frontline on him he's scratching and biting himself a lot. I think his fleas are trying to flee.... So as long as I vacuum with a flea collar or some flea powder...

    Determining the age and condition of a stray cat

    This cat, is awesome. I don't know how long he was living in the wild, but he is sooo friendly. He lets me rub his tummy! and touch his paws! We had loud music cranking from the record player tonight and he just stared at the speakers a little spooked and eventually fell asleep in front of them...
