Well, he's been up and walking around for a bit now, but definitely not as active as normal. Right now, he's scrunched up on the couch, when usually he would be fully stretched out, which is his preferred position. He looks mostly miserable and not really in pain or anything, which we are...

Alright, we had a quick check and we now know for sure that the black substance building up in our poor cat's ear is neither blood nor earwax. Well, I highly doubt that we'll be able to get him to the vet's before Wednesday or so, is there anything that I could buy, or some sort of home remedy...

Hi there, we have a little bit of a possible medical emergency over here and I was wondering if anyone could help out. One of our cats has black *stuff* running building up and running out of its ears, it looks quite disturbing. Other symptoms include vomiting (twice now), and a general lack...

Thanks for the reply, answers the main question of why are they doing it. The thing is, it looks rather mean and I would like to know if any long-term damage to their skin or fur might arise from this behaviour. Its particularly creepy when the fattest cat just lies on one of his siblings...

Hello there, If you happen to be a regular forum crawler, you might remember me as the guy in China who found four kittens on the patio and decided to raise them for fun. Well, that was three months or so ago and now they are quite large and still very much around. Not quite housecats, our...

Out of these four kittens that we now have inside their little box, there is one that is of particular concern to me. He's black with brownish stripes and seems to be the odd one out in his little family. First, he's the skinniest and smallest, but at the same time, he's the most active...

Ok, so far I haven't had much luck feeding them some egg yolk mixed with water so its been something akin to force-feeding so far. However, there has been an interesting new development. Overnight, we left the box with the kittens near the patio with the door open, hoping that the mother cat...

Gasp, invaluable information there, the first time I fed them I put them on their backs because I couldn't get to their mouths. Well, I'll be more careful now, but I guess I've been lucky so far because they haven't coughed or choked severely yet. I have seen a few kitten recipes and I'll give...

Thanks a lot for replying. How long can you keep them on a goat's milk diet for? In the 5 hours or so since we found them I've fed them some egg yolk mixed with water and now they're asleep, but I don't know if I should wake them up to give them more or to let them just sleep. Right now, I'm...

Thanks so much for replying so quickly. I've just gone out to buy some eggs, but for how long can they survive on this substitute formula? I've found some cat food but I don't know if its for kittens, and I don't even know if they can eat solid food yet (absurdly, the can of "Whiska's" has...

I've just posted in the Strays and Ferals section, but I was hoping someone browsing over here might see this first. Hi, I've just found two very young kittens on my patio being harassed by my semi-pet turtle. They look to be quite young, and judging by the information I've read so far, I'm...

Hi, I've just found two very young kittens on my patio being harassed by my semi-pet turtle. They look to be quite young, and judging by the information I've read so far, I'm guessing they're about 3-4 weeks old. They have teeth but can't quite walk yet and keep on crying or something. I...
