Thank you all for your warm thoughts. Here is the update on Tiki. Her fever is down, blood work come back ok with some indication of infection which is not surprising with the stress she is under. Xrays of stomach and lung are clear! But she continues gagging and vet hasn't given her anything...

My 2 year old long hair Tiki was just fine last night and this morning when I let her back in the house after her regular morning stroll outside... She was eager to get in on some wet food. But shortly I heard her gagging violently - vomit out (almost sound like sneezing out) white bubbly...

My 6 month old kitten loves to go outside and chase bugs. He usually doesn't go far. And as soon as I call for his name, I will hear his bells coming back to the house This morning after I let him back in, I realized that he lost his collar and tag (one of those safe collar that will snap...

Does anyone's cat don't knead? I have a kitten adopted at 8 weeks that always kneaded when sleeping on my chest. But my 2 year old cat that I adopted when she was 1 year old only knead once or twice the first week we got her. I haven't seen her knead since then, I hope that doesn't mean that...

My two cats love the outdoor and they mostly stay within our backyard. But the once a while bird sometimes entice them to the front yard and even try to cross the street a couple of times. I know there is invisible fence for dogs, has anyone used it for cats?

We just got a 2 month old puppy (spaniel and aski mix). Not even home for more than 3 days, te little puppy has already learnt to chase our 2 year old cat and 6 month old kitten. The cat hisses and runs, the kitten got a little more guts - hisses and threatens the puppy with his claws. I...

This is cute. My 6 month old kitten was chasing a fly. After an impressive jump and failed to catch the fly, he started to make spitting noise at the fly. Is this how he is showing aggression? Also, the kitten loves to paw Tiki (at least 2-3 times bigger) on the floor and lick her to death...

Thanks Hissy. My other cat Tiki never does this. Could you elaborate on why cats do what Tigger does? I am curious to know what's behind all these interesting behavior...

My kitten tigger has this bad habit of smacking his paws into the water bowl and/or flip the water bowl to get a lot of the water out on the floor, then hunching with both front paws and belly way down on the wet floor. His front paws often makes the scratch (front and back) motion on the wet...

Tigger just got nutered yesterday. We were told not to feed him starting from 8PM the day before yesterday. When I picked him up around 6PM yesterday, his face is noticably swoleen and the vet told me that they had to give him some anti-allergy shot since his face swollen up after the surgery...

I am a very very happy customer of swheat scoop. http://www.swheatscoop.com/ When I got my first cat, I went to the pet store and don't know what litter to get. This woman came in and took the last few bags of swheat scoop - she told me that she tried all brands and this is the best since its...

I have a kitten that is 1.5 week shy of 5 months. He has gotten the distamper shot with 1 booster. He got sick both times and the vet said it is ok for him to skip the 2nd booster. He also got the lukemia shot with 1 booster since we will let him go outside at some point. He hasn't had the...

My kitten Tigger did the same thing since I adopted him at 8 weeks old, now 10 weeks later, he finally stopped stuffing himself. In the beginning, he would eat so much that his belly was very round and had to lie down to rest, and would climb up on my shoulder if I am eating something. Now he...

no clue how did Tigger break his whiskers. But he is very rough and fast when he cleans himself. He also plays rough with the big cat, who smacks him pretty hard sometimes - maybe the big cat chewed some whiskers off while playing? We feed Tigger IAMS kitten food - wet and dry. But he often...

My 18 week old kitten is very very curious and playful. He is also very jumpy. Slightest surprise, he would jump a few inches off of the ground with all four paws in air. He also broke all his whiskers on one side, and quickly breaking the whiskers on the other side. Is this normal for...
