Hello, Iâ€8482ve been reading about flea control here as we just found out that our 3 mth old and 1 yr old have them. It could be that we just got the kitten two weeks ago (by the way, thanks soooo much for all the advice here on introductions – they loooovvvveee each other even after just 2...

Oh my, that theory is interesting though I agree with others that it may not have anything to do with color but rather the cat itself. I do have an orange tabby that’s very dog-like in that he’s always at the door to greet us when we come home, or if he is not quick enough to be at the door...

Thanks for your input, GingersMom and Sidney109! I guess I'm just worrying myself too much. I hope I have the same luck as you guys and have them be best buds (or at least not kill each other) in just a couple of weeks.

Hi, my husband and I currently own a 1 yr old cat, and are thinking of adding a kitten in the hopes that they become buddies. I've read various threads and the sticky thread for introducing cats here and completely understand that introductions has to be slow. But I still have a few questions...

Thanks so much for sharing your experiences, I feel better knowing the protocol -though Iâ€8482m sorry to hear about those vets holding the records hostage – I hope my transition to a new vet goes smoothly. Thanks again!

Hi. I am thinking of changing vets but Iâ€8482m still weighing it out. Did you ask your ex- vet for copies of your kittyâ€8482s records? And do you have to explain to them why? I assume we have every right to ask for the records, but Iâ€8482m just curious what your experiences are. Iâ€8482m...

Hi boxedfish –Iâ€8482m glad you informed me that, because this morning, I noticed that the side of his forehead (from his earlobes to his eyebrows –dangerously close to his right eye) has now balded with some redness. Will ringworm affect the eyes? I sure hope not Heâ€8482s always had thin...

Thanks ChrissyE! I'm buying Lamisil first thing tomorrow....I'm glad it's not harmful to cats I hope we kill these nasty spores once and for all and asap.....

Thanks Plebayo, I was at your comment on the rescue being annoying not the cats lol Besides the baths and clean up, I've been putting an otc anti-fungal cream (Micatin) on his ears and they seem to be getting better. (but I could be imagining things as I'm really hoping it is going away)...

Thanks snosrap5 - glad to hear that you got rid of it through ointment and baths alone. Our cat (Mischief) is the only cat in the household so I'm hoping we can get rid of this without the drastic measures. I'm also concern that she took blood tests to check if his liver is okay enough for the...

Thanks so much Plebayo- I suspected that shaving him all over seemed a little extreme. Here are pictures of his ears –sorry if both are blurry (hope these images are not too large): And here he is – he was playing with his collar (he just had a bath here so we took it off)

Hello, newbie here. I am glad I stumbled on this site. We just got our cat (our first pet) a little over 2 months ago, so we are still learning along the way and this site has been very helpful and the people here seem so friendly. He is a 9 month old, red mctabby Ragamuffin. My husband and...
