I feed my cat both wet and dry food because it's too expensive to feed her exclusively wet food. Doing this means I'm splitting the serving sizes so she gets the right amount of calories (calculated by my vet). My only worry is that she may not be getting the right amount of nutrition. My vet...

My cat is ~11yrs old, and her behavior has changed recently. She's eating more slowly/a little less, not quite as eager to play, and she's started sleeping in her carrier instead of on my bed sometimes. My bed is about waist height, but she's got a perch so she can take it in two steps and she's...

I fed my cat, then was busy with something for 5-10 minutes. When I looked back, her food bowl was empty and she was a ways away from it, next to a pile of vomit that it looked like she was trying to eat. It had completely intact piece of cat food in it, in fact that's mostly what it was. I...

My 10yr old kitty is 11.4 lbs, and my vet says she should be 9.2. She gave me Purina OM and suggested some exercises. Unfortunately I live in a dorm room so there is limited room for her to run around. I've started placing her food on a chair so she has to jump up to eat. When she's willing, we...

So last week it was really warm where I live, like 70 degrees F. My cat started sneezing that week and with no other symptoms I chalked it up to allergies. Yesterday, I noticed her eyes were kinda watery, but now she is keeping one eye closed almost completely. When she does open it, it opens...

Recently, when my cat Luna uses the litterbox, she kicks huge amounts of litter out of the box. There's currently a pile about two inches wide and just as tall. It wasn't unusual for her to scratch at the litter for a very long time, but she never kicked very much litter out. Now it's like her...

I've had issues with my cat peeing on the rug before, but now there's a weird pattern becoming obvious to me, and I know that this isn't related to a uti or something similar, as she just had a BUNCH of tests done. So: She doesn't pee in the same place on the rug every time and I clean it very...

Luna's never been very vocal. Today, she's been sitting on the corner of the rug, staring at the door, and meowing kind of woefully, louder than she's ever meowed. Also, my roommate left the door cracked and she was pawing at it, trying to get out, which she never does. Usually even if the door...

Just now my cat jumped out of my arms and landed oddly. She's now limping very badly and when she sits she holds her paw up kind of awkwardly. She's very agitated. I was holding her a minute ago and she let me touch her leg, I was being very gentle but trying to tell if it was broken. A minute...

My kitty is 10 and I recently adopted her. Lately, when I'm petting her, whether she initiated it or not, she'll bite my hand. She likes to have her head scratched, and at first I thought it was her telling me to scratch her head when I'm petting her sides, but sometimes she bites while I'm...

My kitty is 10, and I adopted her fairly recently. She does NOT like interactive play! I've tried a lot of things, but she's not very active. She's got a foraging box that she plays with every two or three days, and I've seen her enthusiastically batting around a floor toy a grand total of...

I've been a cat owner for less than a month, so I've been reading up on this, but not much is helping. One day, Luna suddenly decided that our shag rug was her new litter box. (We live in a dorm room, so we don't have much space.) This problem arose when we got rid of an old, large area rug and...
