Hello, My 13 yr old male cat Boogie had some biopsy and endoscopy (I think) on new years after bringing him to ER vet. It was due to thickening of his upper small intenstine. He's had chronic vomiting issues and this year it's gotten worse, in November I had to bring him to ER for it and it...

I just went thru a stressful few days with my older cat (another story) But today after bringing him home from medical boarding/emergency room, I went to clean out the litter box after he used it. Now I'm 99% sure this poop is from my other younger cat Nugget, as the stool felt cold (I touched...

I have 2 cats and even thought they are not best buds, they get along fine. Almost every night they will both do their laps running in our apartment and tussle. I don't think it's actual fighting as it happens almost every day. My older cat (B) would be silent but my younger cat (N) would...

Hi! I'd like to learn a bit about what are safe and not safe on regards to essential oils and cats. I do not use essential oils at all because I dislike scents anyway. However these days it's hard to find products that don't add it in. I know essential oil diffusers are a def no-no, but how...

Just quick question: How normal is a few specks of what looks like skin flakes when brushing a long hair cat? Is it something I need to worry about?

My indoor cat Nugget has gradually grown bald spots on his ears. Both of my cats have all their shots up to date, on revolution, and rarely itch themselves. The right ear had a scab a week or 2 ago which came off and bled a bit but I stopped the bleeding and it scabbed once more. That scab seem...

Hello, I've posted about my 12 year old cat Boogie's vomit/stool issues here many times before. Apologies for long post!! He has suddenly started having issues on and off since 2021 after I started trying to better his diet slowly. Long story short he refuse to eat wet food to the point of...

My first cat first did this around 10 years old one day while being petted on my lap. Since then whenever he's enjoying nice bonding time he will drool. My 2nd cat drools a lot when he's purring and happy. They don't drool any other time and vet says their dental health is great. How...

Been doing food trial on my cat for the last few months after he started having bloody wet stool randomly on a food he has eaten for a while. After vet gave him meds that cleared blood, he was still having soft stool. My vet only recommends hills for everything so I've started doing my own food...

My cats eat wet food but I wanted to let them have some chicken gizzards for dental health and just variety for treat. How much can I give them/how often? Is 1 gizzard a week ok or can I give it more often or less often? Thanks!

I recently bought a Wahl electric hair clipper so I can trim around the bum and maybe between hind legs areas for my long hair cat. Sometimes if his stool is a little softer parts get stuck on the fur. It comes with several attachments of different length and I was wondering if there's any...

This is random but I saw this cat tree on Instagram and it's exactly what I've been searching for. However the person who owns the account do not reply to comments or messaging as I've tried to ask. Would anyone be able to find this cat tree? She is in Australia but I'm hoping I can still get it...

Just curious how your cats stool look on the high protein/low carb wet food/raw diets. One of my cat enjoys Tiki cat, Rawz and freeze dried. His stool is usually quite small, almost like what's considered constipation stools for normal cats. There's basically no smell to them and they're...

I have to give liquid medicine predosed into syringes for my cat twice a day. He hates being held and is not very touchy overall. All the guides I find online are probably for docile cats who you can just grab and they will open their mouth. I wrap him fully with a towel just exposing his head...

Here I am again... Apologies for the long post but I don't want to leave out any possible leads. I leave a short summary here: Boogie (11M, neutered) has been the healthiest cat I've ever met for 10 years and now this year has gone thru some digestive system related health scares, with...

Hi! I've been feeding my boy the same dry food for a while now that he loves and does well on, but recently he started having soft stools (slightly melted ice cream texture) that are MEGA stinky and sometimes gets stuck on his butt hairs. His poop sample is cleared by the vet and he shows no...

I noticed my boy not into the recent bag of his Dr Elsey Chicken Kibble (bought Oct 8th). I noticed the color and texture were different than before, lighter, more crumbly and there were a lot more broken bits. He would leave a lot more in the bowl and has started having stool issues. I checked...

Apologies if this isn't in the right forum. My previous cheap home monitor camera died so I'm in the market for a new one. I don't do any serious monitoring or recording. I travel often for business and have a sitter but would just like to check in on my cats if I need to. Ideally would like...

My cat Boogie has always teared up in his left eye only from time to time his entire life (11 years). It doesn't cause any abnormal discharge. He doesn't fuss the eye with his paws at all. Other than that eye being watery and teary there is no other signs different from normal. I've brought...

I have already emailed my vet with the photo for advice. Would love some at home care advice from here while I wait on the response (will likely come tomorrow) I don't know when this happened as his behavior has not changed in the slightest. I only noticed as he was sleeping belly up happily...
