    My cat goes into a coma when he sleeps

    My cat did this to me for the first time last night. She's probably a little over 2 years old now maybe. It was a hot night. I had a fleece blanket on my bed, which she slept on. She was behind my legs. She was dead still and very hot. She felt exactly like my guinea pigs when they died. I...

    Marmalade is STILL sick! GRRR

    Well, the good news is... she's eating more.... and she hasn't got diarrhoea anymore either. I caved and let her go outside for the day to eat grass. She didn't poop for the rest of the day (that I saw), and finally the next day (in the afternoon) she did a poo and it was normal again. So yeah...

    Marmalade is STILL sick! GRRR

    I pretty much only feed her whiskas wet food. It's usually beef/liver/lamb/turkey flavours. Never the same thing really. Her food gets switched around a lot in that regard. Her dry food is nearly always the same. Always whiskas as well. Though sometimes i'll buy the stuff I was told they fed her...

    Marmalade is STILL sick! GRRR

    Ok... well, i've posted a similar story before. Tried to look for the post under my name so I didn't have to make a new thread.. but couldn't find it sorry. Ok... the ending from the previous story went something like this: The vet told me to stop feeding Marmalade fish, because she's too...

    Indoor vs Outdoor cats

    Yeah... i've recently been looking for leashes/harnesses suitable for cats. I live in a complex, and there are 3 other units in tis complex. It's pretty big. Marmalade likes to roam all through the place. I know there's another black cat that roams free around here as well, which she startled. I...

    Indoor vs Outdoor cats

    First of all... sorry if this is the wrong forum :S I thought this might be best as I could see it fitting under "cat care". What is the best/safest/kindest way of "housing" your cat? Is it best to keep them indoors all the time? Is it best to let them out during the day, and in at night...

    How do you dispose of your litter?

    When I got my cat, I knew I wanted to keep her indoors... as i've had lots of trouble having cats outdoors. I knew I didn't want to have a kitty litter that I had to transfer into a plastic bag, and chuck in the bin... or in the garden (because I live in a public house). I also wanted the...

    Marmalade keeps vomitting :/

    Originally it was Coccidia she had. She was definitely diagnosed with it. I got rid of that problem... then a few weeks after, she just started puking her food. Nothing else. Then a little while after that, she was getting diarrhoea and not puking. The vets could never find anything wrong with...

    Do you clean out your litterbox everyday?

    I scoop whenever my cat uses her dirt box. Whether it's 1's or 2's. Then once a week when there's almost no litter in her tray left, I scoop the rest out, and clean the box thoroughly.

    Marmalade keeps vomitting :/

    I've taken her about 4 times regarding this same issue, and they always say it's food related. The pound never told me what they fed her... though I did just e-mail them in desperation, asking them what they feed their cats. I fed her weetbix, mixed with her own food twice... and I decided...

    Marmalade keeps vomitting :/

    I feed her a variety of Whiskas cat food from the supermarket. Often times it's meat in gravy... and yes, it's fish from a can... not fresh from the sea lol. The chicken I fed her was very "flakey" chicken. Like i'd said in my original post, Dad said that I should give her a little bit of...

    Marmalade keeps vomitting :/

    I'm so sorry I post so often about my cats health... but this is seriously ridiculous. I adopted Marmalade (almost 1yo) from the pound here in December last year (and she is now an indoor cat). I knew she had the leftovers of cat flu... and I knew she had fleas 'n mites, 'n other stuff like...

    Coccidiosis & Scourban

    Does anyone know if i'm able to mix the Scourban in with her food? If I can, that'd be much easier.

    Coccidiosis & Scourban

    That's what we pretty much tried to do this morning... except my cat is a FIGHTER hahaha. She turns into the devils spawn. She's a little ginger, and does not hesitate to claw OR bite if she can get to you. I think i'll try to wrap her in a towel again... though she is going to be much harder to...

    Coccidiosis & Scourban

    Hi everyone. It's been an expensive week for me with vet trips. Monday I took my cat Marmalade to the vet, she'd been throwing up and getting diarrhoea. I just thought it was the fact that the fish I gave her, didn't agree with her stomach. She kept it up for another 3 days after that, so I...
