My cat has anxiety issues, we've tried all kinds of things to help him, at the moment the thing that seems to be helping him most is Rescue Remedy. Vets always tell me to use Feliway to help calm him down... I've tried it on 2 occasions, both had awful results... First attempt I had the...

Tank doesn't much like being up high, he seems to much prefer having all 4 feet on the ground. There's a few hidey options throughout the house, He can get under the couches which provide a great safe place (my other cat uses this as a safe haven when delivery people come). There are also...

Thanks :) I'll make a note of playing with him more, I won't deny that I don't play with him much, he absolutely adores catnip! I definitely won't be using revolution again, he has previously been on Comfortis which I've been super happy with but he's quite difficult to give tablets to so I...

I should mention that some time in the next month I'm actually moving out of my parents place into a tiny house (on the same property). Tank is coming with me. I think once he's used to the area, he will thrive in my tiny space, I'm just nervous about how he will cope with the change... Anyone...

My cat Tank has a history of FIC which we're managing. He had a very mild episode not too long ago, some pain meds and he was fine... however ever since then he's been unexpectedly unsettled unless he's locked in my bedroom. As soon as we let him into the rest of the house, he starts rushing...

I actually have a small bag of Ziwipeak that I use as treats for Tank, it's just like dry food though and i don't think it says to rehydrate it.   I use a different brand of freeze dried raw for my ferrets called 'Feline Natural' (the company is K9 natural). It's one that gets rehydrated and...

Hi all,  Pretty much 1 year ago on the dot, I posted a thread here asking for advice on my cat Tank who developed FIC and was hospitalised for 4 days. He recovered well from that after a few complications (he had a bad reaction to the pain relief he was on).  Now almost exactly a year later...

Thanks Denice and Stephanietx. Discussed it with the vet again today and this time she decided it does sound like IBD so he's had an injection for that which should stop him vomiting if it is IBD.  When I first adopted him 8 years ago and we were told he has a sensitive stomach, the vet said...

So my cat Sebastian is a short haired rescue. On average he vomits every 3-4 days. It's usually just cat food that comes up, sometimes hair as well. He's also had issues lately where we've noticed he's got soft poo with a small amount of blood, he's had a bit of a history of that so the vet...

Thanks  Kelpies are one of the most common dogs around here.... and they're the best dogs if you ask me, I might be a bit biased though 

Thanks for the welcome! 

Thank you  Thanks! Tank seems to be on the mend for now, I'm just hoping that he won't relapse any time soon!   Glad your boy came through his issues okay!! Thanks!
