And have no idea where to go from here. We have four cats and are done with adopting but we just ran into a stray tonight while buying gas.  I called him, he came straight to me, I picked him right up and he and purred and kneaded in my arms the entire way home.  He's dirty and not neutered and...

My 9 year old cat has apparently decided that playing is fun.  Is this a symptom of hyperthyroidism, or did she just finally figure it out?

That was what confused me, it seems like it's linked to crossed eyes, and she doesn't have that.  She's always done it, though.

One of my cats almost constantly flutters her eyes back and forth - so quickly that you can't tell unless you look at the whites of her eyes.  She is a long-haired seal point with blue eyes - can I just chalk this up to the nystagmus that Siamese are prone to or does she need to be checked? ...

Why a senior panel?  She's only a year old.  She has a heart murmur, but so does one of my other cats and it doesn't seem to affect her.  No history on her.  She was dumped at a kill shelter, and brought out by a rescue.

We recently adopted cat #4. We're told she's a little over a year old. The problem is, she's VERY relaxed.  She sleeps all day, in the same spot, if I move her, she goes right back to her spot.  She doesn't care about the other cats.  Never plays.  She eats and uses the litter pan, and we've...

We typically don't do vet visits pre-introduction depending on where we get the cat from.  She literally just saw the vet last week for a spay weeks after she'd left the shelter, so I doubt there's anything that could have popped up since.  She definitely hasn't gotten close enough to them that...

My husband and I just welcomed our fourth cat a few nights ago - an impulse adoption, but that's how we roll. :-) She was doing so well today that we decided to introduce her to two of our cats - the third (that I've posted about here) is so aggressive that we keep her apart.  Anyway, the new...

<sigh>  I don't even have a bathroom to keep him in.  There are already going to be seven cats in the house, four of which need to be separated from other cats, PLUS family members who are taking up the rooms my own cats normally stay in.  He's obviously not been tested for anything either, so I...

Nope, won't work. I found her a place that does it for $45, which she can afford (even without a rent discount), but she claims she's too busy to get it done until at least February.  I guess I have to take him when I'm in town for Christmas.  That seriously ticks me off.  I don't want him in my...

After reading your post, I think it's a little bit of a different situation, but thanks.

One of my cats has lost her appetite - she's been to the vet and checks out fine, so the vet thinks it's stress caused by a new cat, moving, and my husband (her favorite) being gone.  She's still eating every day, but losing a little weight and at 7 pounds, she just doesn't have much to lose. ...

Honestly, she's a fairly irresponsible person, which makes me even more irritated.  I know she's adopted cats before that she ends up "not being able to keep" and she has told me she's reluctant to adopt this cat because she wouldn't know what to do if she started dating a man who was allergic...

One of my tenants has pretty adopted a stray cat that's been hanging around (his owner left him when he moved).  HOWEVER, she refuses to make him an indoor cat (oh, but he's so happy outside) and refuses to have him neutered (she's too broke and too busy).  I am planning on writing it into her...

I do know it took her foster mom 3 months of isolation before she was ready for even supervised social time - but even then, there is no attacking.  The funny thing is, her people aggression is better the more time she spends alone.  People aggression I can deal with - the cat she attacked was...
