I gave my cats a treatment of Frontline Plus flea medication about 3 weeks ago. The cats are scratching again. Should I treat them again now? The instructions said to wait one month.

Our cats (4 of them) have their own room we keep them in at night. In the room there is a bed that they usually sleep on. We are having a problem with one of the cats (we assume it's just one of them) urinating on the blankets that are on the bed. We have 2 litter boxes in the room that we...

I took Sox to the vet and she prescribed eye drops with the active ingrediant of "Gentamicin Sulfate Ophthalmic Solution USP 0.3%" I understand this is an antibiotic solution. We are to give him 5 drops, twice a day. Unfortunately, now a day after seeing the vet, the problem is in both...

For a couple of days one of my cats (14 months old) has had a problem with his left eye. At times he squints it and there is a small amount of drainage or mucus in the lower corner of the eye. The eye shows no sign of redness, nor any type of scratch mark, yet the area where the drainage is...

Thanks for the advice. Just got back from the local Urgent Care Center. They told me this was not unusual for them and that I would have probably saved myself some pain and suffering if I had come on day 1 or 2 instead of day 4. Some day I'll learn this lesson. They gave me these big horse...

About 4 days ago one of my cats bit me on my arm. He is a one year old, playful kitten (neutered) that sometimes likes to "gum" my arm, but had never actually bitten to the point of me really feeling it. This time he made some marks, but I didn't really notice that he had punctured the skin...

Thanks for all of the replys. The lump is not hot and it is dry. It doesn't seem to be bothering her at all.

I have a 6 month old kitten that I had spayed one week ago. Yesterday we noticed that a lump has developed around the area where her stitches are located. The lump is a little firm. She does not seem to be in any pain at all, nor is she paying much attention to it. Any idea what this could...

I have 3 kittens, 6 months old, that are being spayed/neutered on Friday. They each have their own little personality traits. One of the males, over the past month or so, has become very "loveable". He loves to climb up on my shoulder and snuggle. He loves to lay across my lap and have his...

I have 3 kittens that will be 5 months old next week. There are two males and one female. We keep them in their own room and then let them have take over the rest of the house in evening when we are home. Tonight we noticed one of the male kittens being a little aggressive toward the female...

I have a mother cat and 3 kittens that are 12 weeks old. One of the kittens, from time to time (too frequently), will urinate on the carpet...even when the litter box is nearby. This usually happens a couple of minutes after I let the kittens out of "their room". I try to let them run around...

We had the mother spayed a couple of weeks ago. At what age should the kittens be spayed or neutered?

I am new to raising kittens. We took in a stray about 4 months ago. A month later she presented us with 4 babies. Unfortunately one died when it was 4 weeks old. The other 3, now 12 weeks old, are doing great. They've had their shots, we've had the mother spayed, and we've weaned the...
