    Abnormal Chewing of Food

    Yes, Simbah did have a dental and will need one every 6 months with this disease unless you are able to brush his teeth but unlikely with most cats (simbah nearly has my hand for breakfast!). Otherwise depending on how he is coping ie he has so much trouble eating often he wont, he will need to...

    How do you deal with this?

    It is so hard, I can completey relate to this. I am also on a mailing list for an against animal cruelty site and I am in 2 complete minds. On one hand I dont want to know because it makes me so upset and keeps me up at night in tears, but on the other I feel that is my duty to know because If...

    Is this possible?

    I know.....I am finding this very amusing despite myself. I did see that "no good" Hamish waiting over the other side of the fence for Luna but she was otherwise occupied at the time (warming my bed) but I am sure she will up soon enough looking for some action so to speak. You guys are right...

    A long shot........

    I have spoken to Tosca's new owners and they really like her! I am so relieved and happy. She slept on her new mums bed all night last night, and is already having free roam of the house. Apparantly Tosca is fine with their other cat (called Kitten lol) but Kitten is not fine with Tosca. But...

    Is this possible?

    Thanks for the replies lotsocats and Yola and for putting my mind at ease. Yes, Luna is desexed and has been since she was 6 month old! She is now 1 1/2 and I keep all my kitties indoors until they have been neutered so there is no way she could have experienced this before. But it looks like...

    Is this possible?

    One of my kitties Luna has a handsome BIG ginger tabby boyfriend called Hamish! I am not joking, he lives two houses behind us and when she is allowed out the first thing she does in jump the fence and 9 times out of 10 Hamish will show up. They just chase eachother up and down trees and play...

    I was wondering...do you kiss your cat?

    My babies run for cover when I say "who wants a kiss!!" I have 3 that LOVE kisses, Munchy and Simbah initiate it and Simbah would like to put his entire fluffy face in my mouth if he could - he is so cute. Luna also loves kisses, she offers me the top of her head all the time and will smack my...

    Abnormal Chewing of Food

    One of my cats has Stomatitis which is basically chronic inflammed gums and mouth. It is caused by an overactive immune system which is making him hyper sensitive to any tartar on his teeth. It is very painful for him to eat and makes him really depressed and the way your cat is eating sounds...

    Not sure if Walthams is avaliable over there vut there is a special treat called Walthams Immune Support. Its pretty cheap and cats really like them and they are especially designed for cats with Fiv or other diseases which require an immune booster. Otherwise blue/green algae in the form of...

    Calories per pound?

    I think I can help except we use kilograms as a weight measurement in australia and I have no idea how to convert that to pounds but maybe you do... For an inactive cat about 70 calories per kg. For an active cat about 80 - 90 calories per kg. I will try and find a weight conversion thing...

    Number of litterboxes

    I usually say however many cats you have in your house plus 1 under 6 cats. If you are over 6 cats then however many kitties plus 2 trays. If your kitties are allowed outside, they will probably prefer to do their business out there so this rule isnt so strict then. I have 7 cats and 6 trays...

    FIP Symptoms -- What Else Could It Be?

    I might be a bit out of line here but if you even suspect your kitten has FIP I really think she needs to be at a vet to recieve proper treatment otherwise she could die. How have the vets confirmed it is FIP? The only definite way is via blood sample for analysis and a special FIP test. I...
