    Tummy Issues…food related?

    Hi, My 2 year old cat Henry started having horrible diarrhea a few weeks ago. He’d also vomit before or after having diarrhea. And then he would scoot his bottom everywhere. I had just got a new case of wet food that had not been in stock for a long time. This diarrhea started a day and a half...

    Anxious Cat

    I have had my cat Henry for two years since he was a kitten. He started out fearless and now he is scared of everything. I have another cat. They get along fine. He’s scared of noises and the outside feral cats he hears sometimes. He is very clingy to me and is always right by me all the time...

    Cat Acne on Chin

    Hi, I’ve noticed for a few days that my cat has gotten a hard black spot on his chin and appears to be spreading. He has been scratching it and there are sores.

    Feral Cat Spay

    Hi, I’ve posted before asking how to best trap and release a feral cat after a spay. So I did lots of research and was able to trap her this morning. Got her spayed and picked her up.

    Help for trapping feral cat

    So, I posted earlier about a feral momma cat who had very sick kittens. I was able to get them to a local shelter who sent them to a foster who takes in sick kittens.

    Kitten Won’t Eat Much Of Anything.

    I got a new kitten a week ago. He is 3 months old. He wouldn’t really eat his dry kitty food the first day we got him. I thought it was stress from moving into a new environment. He still eats very minimal dry food but sometimes goes for my other cats regular dry food. I tried moist food but he...

    Should I Get A Buddy For My Cat?

    My husband and I recently rescued a stray female kitty. She is about 1 1/2 according to our vet. She’s very active and likes to meow at the feral cats we have around the house. I can tell she wants to be outdoors badly. While my husband and I agree we just want one cat we are feeling pressure...

    New Kitty Behaviors

    Hi! I’m new to this forum and so excited I found it. My husband and I recently lost our 13 year old kitty to kidney disease. She was the love of our life. We knew we wanted to get a new kitty sooner rather than later because we love having an animal in our house (we have no kids). We ended up...
