Thanks for the advice, everyone. Haven't had a chance to look at those videos yet but I definitely will. She has toys but she never seems interested in them. She has several 'rolling toys' (balls; mice with bells on the tail; etc); one of those sticks with feathers on the end; a catnip-stuffed...

I've posted on here before about our kitten's behavior, but now it's getting even worse. And so erratic that a new thread, not just replies on an older one, is necessary. The things you need to know: she's about 9 months old. We got her from a shelter, after they found her left for dead in a...

I've had a Siamese for 10 years and my family has had them for 30+ years, and I can tell you they are extremely vocal. My Siamese used to yowl (face it, 'meow' doesn't cover it for a Siamese!) when we let him in from outside: he would literally yowl at the door until someone opened it, then walk...

We're having some serious problems with our kitten's litterbox: the smell; litter tracking; and where on earth to put it. The first problem is the tracking. No matter what we do, she tracks litter absolutely everywhere. Where we used to live, we had her litterbox on a vinyl floor, and found...

My kitten is either 5 or 6 months old (her vet paperwork and her adoption paperwork have different birth dates on them), and was a rescue kitten. I adopted her from a shelter, who found her left for dead in a dumpster at three weeks old. When I first got her, it was just me and her for a month...

She's incredibly active and playful, and her coat is the softest and shiniest I've ever seen on a cat. I wouldn't really call her eyes super-sparkly but they're bright and clear. To be honest I'd love it if she stays tiny - as long as it doesn't compromise her health, of course. So there's...

I have a sweet little tabby girl. She's either five or six months old: the vet paperwork from her spay surgery and the paperwork from the shelter where I rescued her have two different birth dates. I'm a bit concerned that she may be too little. I've had another cat for eleven years and he's...

My kitten absolutely hates my boyfriend, and it's starting to really bother us both. She always runs away from him when he tries to cuddle her; will never take a treat from his hand, (but she does from mine); hisses at him frequently; growls at him; scratches him. It's bad. She's not been...

She's mixed, and happily she's fine. We kept her under constant surveillance for the 48 hours following the incident, checking her pupil dilation and general demeanor (she was scampering about like a little wind-up toy very soon afterwards), and has now had a clean bill of health from the vet...

But what do we do now? All I can find on the internet is how to give CPR or revive a cat, nothing about aftercare. We're keeping her under very close watch for the next 24 hours (we're reven taking it in shifts through the night) but is there anything else we need to be doing? Something in...

I really don't want to be vilified here. My boyfriend and I love our kitten like we would love our own child, and it's not just a case of 'we don't want to pay for a vet' (we actually have the kitty insured, so money is no object when it comes to vet bills). What happened today was an accident...
