Thanks everyone for the helpful advice! I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on his litter box from now on. So far it’s been about a month of slowly mixing in the new food with his old food and feeding half wet twice a day. I haven’t noticed any changes in his behaviour (other than being really...

In the past my cat has had urinary issues which caused him multiple rushes to the emergency vet, and a stay at the vets because of a blockage. It’s largely diet related. Because of that he’s been on a vet prescribed food for urinary issues for several years. The problem with that is that the...

Yeah I've noticed. Thanks, I'll ask.

I don't know, I've been getting a lot of mixed messages. She didn't see a point in doing it at first, but after I called the second time to ask she suggested cleaning his chin. It was very mild at first and then an outbreak came out of nowhere. My vet saw him before that. Yeah, he's an inside cat.

Original post: I Think My Cat Has Acne! So I had some people including my vet recommend cleaning his chin, and it's gotten worse since I've cleaned it, which has been once a day for the past two days. There is now three rather large scabs around his chin. I just changed his food and water bowl...

Thanks, I'll try that.

That's interesting. I called my vet today and she said it could be a food allergy. My other cat has severe food intolerances so I use specially perscribed food; its the only one he can tolerate. Having them on different foods could be challenging. Especially since my other one cannot eat...

That's what I thought. I called her today and she said I could use soap and water to clean his chin. She said not to use anything that could leave a residue.

So my cat has been developing these black specs on his chin. I took him to the vet at one point because he had a small open wound and some specs imbedded in his skin. She popped out the specs and told me the wound would heal on its own, she also suggested I switch to ceramic bowls. I asked her...

He's always been neurotic, since he was a kitten. It's a part of his personality. I never pieced everything together, I just thought they were all isolated incidences. But now I'm wondering. I only notice these things because I am so attentive to my cats and I pick up on their signals, but...

I took my cat, Thor to the vet yesterday. He got an examination and a distemper shot. When I brought him home, his brother Loki started acting really mean towards him. He was hissing and trying to swat at him. I take my cats rutinely to the vets and this sort of thing has never happened before...

I came into the room and noticed he was scratching around, and then the smell hit me. I picked him up and his whole bottom half was covered in pee. I took him to the bathroom to clean him up. I forgot the wipes so I went to go get them. when I came back in he was fighting to get out of the door...

Hmm, that's interesting. Loki recently had a urinary blockage, we dealt with it, I was at the vets just a couple weeks ago and she said the blockage was gone. Other than that he's acting normal, he is by nature I bit angst-y though. My SO usually does the litter box, and yesterday I realized it...

My neutered male 2 yr old cat peed on the couch, either last night or sometime this morning. He was acting a bit out of sorts this morning, he is usually a very vocal cat, but his meowing woke me up several times early this morning, I ended up closing the door to my bedroom so I could get back...

I also have this issue with one of my cats. I've come to find that accessiblity is a contributing factor in the frequency in which he chews cords, he also very much likes long and thin cords, so any of those particular cords I wrap up and try to make them as hard to get to as possible (basically...
