Our new adopted kitty, Apult came with a case of herpes. We've barely had him six weeks and he's already gotten an infection a second time. This time I caught it before it got too out of hand. He just has a fever and some discharge. Anyways, the vet suggested viraysis or something? The gel that...

So today I got the bad news of my girl being in renal failure. She's down to about 20% kidney function. The hard part is that this is a major issue because her low white blood cell count caused a problem with her paws, causing them to swell up and blister. Because of her low kidney function, the...

In this past week I have found myself the new parent of this cat. She has been passed through owners a lot recently. First she belonged to my boyfriends friend, who had a baby and could no longer take care of her. Then to my boyfriend, who because of housing situations couldn't have her around...

He's been eating...maybe 1/4 a cup of food a day? We've always free fed him and I'd say before he ate anywhere from 1/2 cup to 1 cup of food a day. I'm going to look into that site though and look into an alternative diet for him.  Thank you so much for all the advice. :) 

The vet did give him some antibiotics I've been giving him. So that could be it. And we never really did find the cause of it. He wasn't showing any signs of having an obstruction or having of eaten something dangerous, so they assumed it was a dietary thing. We had been giving him canned tuna...

He's been eating Purity One Smart Blend for about a year now.  At the vet they gave him some anti nausea medication, and gave us antibiotics he's supposed to have twice a day for a week.  I just kind of feel like when I spoke the vet I didn't give him enough to be concerned about? Ichi has...

I'm trying to decide if I should be concerned about my cats eating habits at the moment. He did visit the vet yesterday for some diarrhea issues which have been solved for the most part. The last few days his appetite has been very strange and i don't know if it's something I should try to...

The last few days my cat, Ichi, had been dealing with a case of diarrhea. We took him to the vet yesterday to get it checked out and make sure there wasn't a bigger problem. The vet really didn't give us any answers as to why he was having besides it being a dietary change or something he ate. I...

I would love to have a better picture, but Ichi is off reeking Havoc so this will have to work.  Since his old brush seems to have gone missing I am in the market for a new brush and want to make sure I get the right one. I'd like to see if I can save money and not have to buy multiple...

I never really thought it would be a problem because as a kitten I thought Ichi wold be more of a medium-long haired cat. But as he's coming into his prime I've had to come to the realization that he is a full on long haired cat. He is the first actual long haired cat I have ever owned and I was...

I didn't know if I should post this in nutrition or here, but it seemed to be more about his behavior.  We just started moving into our new apartment yesterday, Ichi being the first thing to move.  The ten minute drive being traumatic enough for him, this new place also has another cat. ...

We are going to be moving in about two weeks and I wanted to surprise Ichi with a new toy to help him warm up to the new place. I was looking around at cat trees on amazon. But I am concerned that most of them would not support Ichis size and weight. And also that he won't be interested in it...

In about a month we are moving in with some one who also has a cat and we are going to have the house open to them both and the problem of feeding recently came to realization. We have cat #1: Our cat Ichi, he is about 1 year old, about 14 pounds and we free feed him dry food (averages about a...
