Hi all. I'm a neonate foster and would like to provide some information about what to expect with singleton bottle babies as they get older. Sometimes we can match with others their age, but sometimes can not, and unfortunately they sometimes end up back the the shelter due to their lack of...
Another alternative is dominance behavior which looks super similar to mating. I wonder if he isn't trying to tell them that this is his house while he is young? I see my boy do that to his brother all the time, although not with a sexual overtone. However I do see that behavior a LOT in dogs...
Yes everyone is neutered.
I think there may be something to the theory of zoomies as I've started watching him and he seems to have increased energy around his opera times. Tormund has now started to scream upstairs since we adopted two kittens and I think he is trying to get them to play.
I have a multi cat household. Since we rescued Skooma he would go into the basement and just yowl and sing his fool head off at night. We chalked it up to him being a feral cat and he has slowed down his Opera performances. However, Tormund has started screaming like he is on fire in the...
Hi all,
I just adopted two adorable kittens. However, the tabby and white one has some very unusual features.. He looks more like a kitsune mask, pointed and angular with very almond eyes, than any other kitten I've ever seen. It's hard getting a picture of him because he goes 100mph. His...
Both my vets said that they don't like doing nasal flushes if it can be avoided because they don't tolerate it well. I opened not to go that route with my girl.
My girl had allergies for years that at some point turned into sinus cancer. Makes sense since cancer effects damaged areas more Retrospectively, I think I could tell when it turned to cancer symptoms when the 'allergies' were only one one side of her face. Meaning, only one eye was weeping...
I'm so sorry. This is a very rare and aggressive cancer and every kitty's journey seems to be different. My kitty was just diagnosed with stage 4b nasal cancer and it has already spread to multiple tumors on her lungs. You wouldn't know it though, because other than frequent nosebleeds and...
I am still not 100% on if the zyrtec is working, but at this point I am afraid to change anything. She is still itchy, but it isn't as bad, she doesn't sound like Darth Vader anymore, and she isn't crying all the time. We use this shampoo.i think it is prescription
.
So oddly enough we went through 2 antihistamines, apoquel, pred, and a whole host of other things. Nothing worked except a bath every two days! My vet had consulted some specialists and the options were getting very limited with worse side effects.
Them she asked what HAS worked and I said that...
It's not just Friskies, Fancy Feast pate are gone too!
We've had luck feeding ours Fancy Feast flaked. The carbs are comparable if that is what is leading you to go the pate route.
We just got the results of the ionized calcium this week and I've actually asked for them to also do ultrasounds and an xray to double check that there is no IBD or kidney tumors as well. Im just trying to triple check everything before we settle on idiopathic. We had tested for lymohomia and...
I have a cat that was just diagnosed with idiopathic hypercalcemia. We were told to look for wet food with under 1% calcium, high protein, low carbs, moderate fat.
But for the life of me I can't find calcium content anywhere online. We bought all sorts of different foods to entice her into...
Hi all.
I have a just turned 1 year old cat named Tormund. He is absolutely the sweetest and happiest boy I've ever had. I rescued him at about 12 weeks old. He was a 2lb sickly feral kitten who had been attacked by a large dog. So we've been through some things together.
I have a large catio...
Update: turns out she is HIGHLY allergic to dust mites and storage mites! We've made a.bunch of changes in her environment and give her half a zyrtec at night.
Actually we got a blood test done for environmental allergies. The company offeres specialized allergy shots depending on what it comes up with. It was 200 bucks, but I absolutely wanted it done. We are waiting to hear back. I'll update on the found results incase someone searched the forum and...
Yes, it's TRUE. Savannas and Bengals typically need to have access to wide open spaces and LOTS and LOTS of exercise and stimulation. Because of him the whole house revolves around catification. Even when I take a bath I throw in mechanical fish for him to play in there with me. He is a full...
