I’ve got two cats that I have had for about two years. They’re both about two years old. I used to live with a roommate and had no other pets in the home. They got along very well. They played together, cuddled, groomed each other, etc. It was wonderful! I eventually had to move back home almost...

T Thank you for your reply! I should clarify the omeprazole was for me. I didn’t realize until today that cats are also given omeprazole, in much smaller doses, of course. But that’s why I worry. I’m afraid they’ll swallow an adult dosage! I may vacuum when I get home just in case.

I was taking it out of the package and it dropped. I looked on the ground in the area and found NOTHING. How the heck it disappeared, I don’t know. I’m a worrier, so I am concerned they’ll sniff it out and find it while I’m gone and get sick. Is this a valid worry?

I’ll take a look at that one. Thank you.

Yes, I have seen the reviews, but only after I bought it. I’m disappointed because this is the first time I bought some thing from Petsmart that was so misleading. I saw the reviews afterwards, but was hoping taking care of it properly like cleaning it regularly would help.

Everything can go in the dishwasher except for the motor. But yes, it does look like something is peeling off.

I’m sorry to get back to you so late. I haven’t seen your reply until tonight. Lincoln has doing much, much better since the last time I posted. He’s drinking water even as I type and he eats. He hasn’t puked since my original post, although he does still sneeze occasionally. I don’t really see...

Hello everyone. I bought this water fountain from PetSmart about a month ago. It’s by Whisker City and it’s “stainless steel”, although I’ve since learned that not all of it is stainless steel. I’ve seen some pictures about this particular fountain rusting in some places, which worries me. I’ve...

Thank you for your thorough response. I’m at work but while I’m there, my family is watching him. After I made my initial post, Lincoln ate and he drank some water. My family said he’s eating a lot. As far as I know, he didn’t throw anything up. So I’m thinking those are good signs. When he went...

Another thing I just remembered is he’s gone to the litter box twice this morning, but the second time he made a bit of a straining noise. My mother who saw him said it looked like his stomach was straining. He did end up using it, though.

He has no watery eyes or runny nose. I’m thinking he may be nauseous too. They looked inside his mouth and didn’t see anything. They did not look into his throat as far as I know. His temperature was fine as well. So without bloodwork or an X-ray it’s speculation for me.

Couple more things. He licks his lips sometimes like he’s eaten. Either I’m paranoid and he’s always done it, I just haven’t noticed, or this is new and a symptom of something. My other cat is recovering from having a herpes flare up with a URI. Maybe her being sick has affected him in some way...

Hey all, I am having a concerning issue with my cat. His name is Lincoln. Starting Thursday night, Lincoln starting to make a strange swallow motion. Several times while watching him he would “swallow” (like he would kinda stretch his neck out if that makes sense). At some point during that...

The vet believes she has a URI. She gave her an antibiotic shot called Convenia or something like that. That was Tuesday. She’s still a little sniffly and sneezy but she seems to be doing better!

she seems to have more energy tonight! She is walking around both floors of the house and ate some wet food that I put down! She’s still got watery eyes and sneezing though.
