    Feral turned indoor cat: how to get to vet?!

    Hi All! I'm a feral colony caretaker, my humane society community cat director cares for it with me. We realized this one cute little nugget actually wasn't feral. We named her Nosy Rosie. That's because she started following us, rubbing against us, showing her belly and letting us pet her. I...

    Young Cat Terrorizing Older Cat

    Thank you both for the help and reassurance! I mostly feel guilty that my “first born” has to put up with Wilson now and watches his back . Hopefully as you stated, artnj, Wilson will grow out of it by 2

    Older Kitty Losing Voice Due To New Young Kitty

    I’m so sorry I haven’t updated :O Rudy, the at the time voiceless cat, is back to normal! He soon after this post, became ill to where he didn’t want to move from under a table.

    Lethargic Cat-vet Said Not Concerned

    Hi thank you! They did belly xrays, and saw poop in there but everything looked normal. She didn’t say he was dehydrated but maybe to just keep him refreshed she gave them to him, and they didn’t really say when he would do better as they didn’t see a reason for him to act like this. They said...

    Lethargic Cat-vet Said Not Concerned

    i need advice or help- my best friend Rudy is 11 and we are so intuned with eachother I’m so afraid of losing him. Since Saturday I noticed he looked disheveled, not himself and didn’t eat dinner that night. He keeps swallowing, gags, his purr sounds crackly, his meows are silent. On Sunday...

She said she expects bad breath from the...
