Pretty much my story as well. I believe my kitty was cared for by a neighbor who has moved, leaving her behind. She was a regular visitor to my office and insisted on coming in and investigating. We all became fond of her; but with a NYC winter moving in- I was the best candidate to take her in...

Thanks for that. She can sure hold  a grudge. Hope I didn't permanently hurt the situation

OK, I screwed up: I had taken in a healthy semi feral kitty 2 months ago. She is very skittish, but was finally exploring the house, sleeping in bed with me ( no touching) and playing with toys- all that conveyed some kind of comfort. Yesterday I had my friend and vet tech come over and check a...

It has been one month ! The eye has cleared thanks to the daily visit from our new friend and vet tech. Thank God he was available to help. Baby Cat remains aloof; not interested in playing or affection. The only times she is a approachable is when I put food down. If she wants to be a ghost...

I am feeding an 8.6 lbs semi feral I recently brought in. I appreciate the need for high protein wet food. When I asked WELLNESS this is what I received RE the protein content. Can I assume the higher protein the less carb? HELP Dear June, Thank you for taking the time to write about Wellness...

I recently brought in a semi feral female kitty.  She was 8.5 lbs at her first vet visit. To date I have been serving either 2 3oz cans or 1/2 morning 1/2 evening 6 oz can. She is ravenous, especially first thing in the morning. I have recently added a little (very little) Wellness kibble. Am...

Well, $50 for antibiotic ointment that I was in NO way getting near her eye. So I opted for $10 a vist for vet tech to come to house and do it for me. only getting dosed once a day, but already looks better

Unfortunately, oral medication that could be hidden in food is not an option. $50 eye ointment and I can't get NEAR her to apply it ! I have made a deal with the vet tech to come over today and give it a try. If that fails....there is nothing I can do

Any words of wisdom: I will be attempting to treat my newly rescued kitty's eye infection. This will not be fun What if I simply can't get the ointment in?

Thanks again. Yes, I knew the cuddles weren't in the picture. I do consider myself patient-with critters, not people. I had a diabetic Maine Coon and that was before the progress with diet and feline insulin. No one to help restrain kitty.......I'm on my own with that

Thanks for the reply. The weepy eye appeared a week after her initial vet visit. Since she is very leery of me, it is hard to get a good look at the eye-again the eye contact is a threat.. Some days I think it's better, than next I'm not sure. Could the discharge be a bit reddish? I've been...

Hello All: I brought into my home, what I believe is a 6-9 mnth old female kitty. Someone had been caring for her as her ear is tipped and she was clean. I believe the person who was feeding her moved, leaving her behind. We noticed her hanging about our office garden door. Very friendly, very...
