Thank you for all of this! I've seen your advice in a couple similar threads so I appreciate all of the insight. An update: Bowie has from last night/this morning been much more curious about the closed door. No hissing or growling, but a bit of vocalization to me every now and then, sniffing...

This is my hope! I just know that when or if Bowie gets on board he'll be much happier to have a friend...

Oh, sorry! You're right -- both boys are fixed. In the long run I hope that helps a lot because it seems like it would.

Hi all! I've been away from the site for quite sometime (other than silent lurking) and have come back with a bit of a big concern on my end. My cat Bowie and I have been the best of friends for the last two years. I've had my ups and downs with him (who hasn't, especially as a new cat owner!)...

Hi all! I had posted about my boy Bowie after an allergy scare many months ago. He has thankfully since recovered and does not seem to have an adverse food allergy like we once thought. My little "Houdini" has since shown me his amazing new trick in breaking into the cabinets at his level (and I...

Just another update!! No vomit today so far. Yesterday evening I gave him his Revolution as the vet suggested and also began the anti-inflammatory as I couldn't stand to see him itching and red anymore. He loves his compounded meds and took some again tonight. He'll be on this for about a week...

Good point!! Litter is first tonight and hopefully a different kind of food over the weekend. For now I am trying to give smaller portions over a more frequent period to limit his irritation/potential vomit. While I don't free feed he usually does graze when I put it down (I try not to take it...

Thank you guys!!! :) Team Bowie is strong! I am a "fixer" by nature so of course I'm already wanting to move onto the next steps but at this point I should just be watching and waiting, right? The vet hadn't advised a followup unless I felt I needed it and though I think they did their best...

Just as an update... woke up to some more vomit on the carpet this morning. No blood or food in it, just looks brown to me. He seems otherwise fine -- he's hanging out and playing as usual. I'm wondering if it IS his food if he's still vomiting or maybe stress from the irritation on his skin...

And thank you!!! He is handsome and beloved by all he's met, even my Dad who is not what you'd call a cat person. ;)

You are so sweet, thank you!! Charlie sounds wonderful. :) I'm glad you've had some luck figuring out his trigger -- the food Bowie eats at the moment has chicken as the main protein so perhaps that may be what is ailing him. I am definitely trying the litter first and hope that that and a round...

Thank you! :) I have to wonder if this could be the cause. He really isn't a destructive cat and I keep cleaning supplies stored away from where he roams but there has been construction on our property recently. It wasn't right next to us but maybe close enough? He is indoor only but you never...

Hi all!! Long time lurker and first time poster. I am a new cat owner to my lovely siamese mix named Bowie. He is 7 months old and an amazing kitty! I adopted him about a month ago in perfect health and he is currently up to date on all vaccinations, fixed, the works. Unfortunately, we've since...
