    1 year old kitten has peed laying down since I adopted her

    Thank you so much for the response! She does poop normally. Actually never thought of trying that. I'm always afraid of causing litter box aversion by messing with the cats when they're in there. But it's worth an attempt. Both of you make extremely great points!! She was actually kept in a...

    1 year old kitten has peed laying down since I adopted her

    It's been a little while since I last posted here. But I'm back! I really did figure I'd end up having to come back to ask this question, as my caliby, Keaton, was already doing this when I first got her a year ago. But, she has this tendency to lay down when she pees. She never pees on...

    Freeze dried liver safety? (and other freeze dried advice?)

    Ahh, that makes so much sense feeding them more bird parts than beef considering their natural diet! I also will look into Purebites. I think I bought some recently. As well as start rotating, which is yet another great piece of advice I didn't consider! Thank you ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™

    Freeze dried liver safety? (and other freeze dried advice?)

    I recently started getting my kittens more proteins to try, and recently picked up some freeze dried turkey liver. However, I do know that there's potential for issues concerning the high levels of vitamin A. In that case, is this something that shouldn't be fed on a regular basis? If so...

    11 day post spay surgery question on activity

    Thank you all for the additional help! I feel much better letting her be a little bit more active, sans 7 ft pole cat tree of course. I also contacted the vet just in case now that they are open again as suggested. ๐Ÿ’ž

    11 day post spay surgery question on activity

    She's 7 months now! And it looks great, 0 redness, dry/scabbed, and 0 odor. Good to know! My other girl was released pretty early too, but she was easier to contain ๐Ÿคง Sounds great! That's somewhat of what I'm doing. Light running and the like I'll continue to monitor her. Thank you!!

    Calico tabby?

    A caliby!? Oh my goodness ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ that's such a cute name for it! I googled the name and immediately nodded, that's 100% her. One of my favorite coats too ๐Ÿฅบ I also find the name of my other girl is dilute torbie, even faded you can definitely see the black and reds in comparison to the Calico. I...

    11 day post spay surgery question on activity

    I had hoped to have my two kittens spayed at the same vet, but that didn't work out. So I'm back asking additional questions about activity level with my second kitten, Keaton, who went home with physical stitches rather than glue like my first. I have kept her pretty inactive with the help of...

    Huge purple stitch sticking out 15 days after spay?

    Update: I was hoping I'd get another answer here, but it seems I don't need one now. Kaiya got her onesie off and "snipped" the plastic stitch herself last night ๐Ÿคฆ it left behind a clean but tiny hole. contacted the Chewy vet yesterday for a second opinion after posting here, and they didn't...

    Huge purple stitch sticking out 15 days after spay?

    Really!? That's scary!! But like my post stated, I did take her back to that vet and they said it would dissolve and there was nothing to worry about.

    Huge purple stitch sticking out 15 days after spay?

    It has been quite an adventure dealing with two kittens that both had their spay relatively close together. Especially considering they were both done by different vets and had their incisions closed differently. One was closed with glue and the other one with sutures. The little girl who got...

    Cat pees and poops everywhere

    I definitely echo the idea of logging her behavior, it may take some dedication but it's definitely worth it. And the only way to know exactly what is triggering it. There's a lot of questions to ask for sure. And definitely trying anxiety meds for sure will lead to some relief for her...

    Cat pees and poops everywhere

    Many apartments have shared ducts that the smell can travel through however. So that's a possibility that she could still smell another cat. It's interesting that it's the same place each time too. Going on the whole air duct system theory, are there any air ducts near where she's pooping? And...

    Cats won’t eat when I’m gone…

    What cuties! It's sweet they love you so much, but it's definitely not ideal that they are not eating when you're gone. I would suggest a little training in terms of getting them used to eating when you're not there. First is getting them the food without you needing to be there. I would...
