Results are in!!
FIV/FELV negative :cheerleader:
Bloodwork is great overall, his albumin levels are just ever so slightly below the reference range (so may be normal for him, but may be worth rechecking down the road)
And no trace of crystals in his urine
Yay!
It wasn’t even a dirty rear, it was a HUGE chunk of poop stuck under his tail and partially still in his butt, and no reaction to it, but you’re right, there’s no way that hasn’t happened in the past and he would have likely gone with no help with it so it’s probably not such a perturbing...
Oh wow. Beautiful cat. He doesn’t look chonk at all. Very lean and healthy. He must be extremely active to eat that much and still look so trim, mine could never! As long as he looks like that I wouldn’t worry about the big food amount honestly, maybe you could slightly reduce so there aren’t as...
Hello there,
How long have you had him and how long have you been feeding him this much food? And when you say he’s constantly gaining weight, how much and how quickly on average? Is he chonky? Kittens and pregnant mommas require a lot of calories, but at 7 months old, he will be well into the...
Basically right after my last post he went poo. A pretty soft one again but he was acting totally normal afterwards so I thought nothing of it besides it’s a stress poop again and maybe that’s enough wet food for today. Then about half an hour ago I went to check in on him again and the room...
Yeah definitely. He was with two other kitties from the same place at the shelter and they both looked like they might be fighting off something too. One of them especially, his third eyelids were quite pronounced, so I never expected him to be 100% healthy which is why I haven’t started intros...
No results back yet so I’m guessing they wont come in till tomorrow.
My poor little man has been a bit shut down since we came home, I think the whole big trip and experience was a little much for him even though he seemed to handle it pretty well at the time. He hasn’t been back in his crate...
Incase it helps….
I have a 12 year old and an (almost) one year old who have been together for just over 4 months now. The youngin’ is super rude sometimes and does sneak attacks on her/chases her, pounces on her, tries to pin her down and bite her neck… she hisses and growls at him, they get...
Literally my life’s motto LOL.
Five years ago I was seeing this dude, it went from zero to one hundred pretty fast, spending a lot of time together, ect. Lots of red flags looking back now but oh well, anyways. I still remember the first night he stayed over. He said “no cats in the bedroom”...
Thank you! He is happily polishing off his whole half can serving of fancy feast right now so that’s a big win. Usually he won’t eat more than 10-20 grams of wet IF he’ll even touch it, the most I’ve ever seen him eat in one go was like 30 grams and that was only once, and this is 40-ish grams...
Well, we are back from the vet. Poor boy had to spend FIVE hours out and about today altogether. He was pretty chill on the way there but was quite squirmy during his exam, as to be expected, and he wouldn’t let them draw blood from his jugular and was apparently bunny kicking when they did so...
As others have said already, if he doesn’t respect your cats, he doesn’t respect you. It really is that plain and simple. Not only that, but, (and I’m sorry if this sounds harsh) but he might not even like you very much, nor take your relationship seriously, because if he truly loved and valued...
We had another good play session last night and my mom came over briefly to meet him and he came out of his safe spot with very little coaxing and immediately put on the charm and cuddled her pretty vigorously lol. She was laying on my bed and he was giving her kisses and flopping around as if...
