    Sick Cat...suggestions?

    Kitty update: the doctor today found Kitty to have ulcers in her mouth and the inside of her mouth is swollen (missed by his wife the first time around). No wonder she won’t eat or drink! The thing is, he doesn’t know what could be causing it. May be eosinophilic stomatitis, but that is...

    Sick Cat...suggestions?

    I have a 13 year old female cat. She was my cat for 12 years until I moved out and had to leave her with my parents. Well, I went to visit and saw my kitty and was shocked. She looked terrible! Her fur is dirty, she is skinny, and constantly leaves the tip of her tongue out. She won’t eat. She...

    Red Clover and Cats

    No you misread what I said. It had been 15 hours since he last threw up. He is fine now he has been eating and hasn't thrown up for more than 24 hours now. The vets advice was to take away his food for part of a day and let his stomach settle.

    Red Clover and Cats

    No he did not eat a large quantity. I picked one sprig with about three sets of three leaves. So about 9 leaves all together that he ate the first time. The second time he had even less. He appears to be pretty much back to normal, I have offered him food but he doesn't want to eat yet. I have...

    Red Clover and Cats

    Most of the prominent lists of toxic plants do not even list any form of clover as toxic. It says it can be to livestock, but cats hardly qualify for that! I am usually extremely careful what I let my cats eat and don't know what made me give him that. I guess we have had numerous small animals...

    Red Clover and Cats

    Well...my cat is nuts about greens. I am well aware that you can buy dishes of seeds to grow but keep forgetting to grow them. The website I checked to see if clover was poisonous said it was not, so I gave him some. I did call an emergency 24 hour vet clinic this afternoon and they had no...

    Red Clover and Cats

    Is red clover poisonous to cats? I have researched different sites and some say clover is poisonous and others say you can give it to your cat. I gave my cat some Thursday night and every since he has been vomiting every time he tries to eat. I didn't make the connection until I gave him a...

    2 year old cat with diarrhea

    My cat now appears to be over his problem. I scooped out the litter box and somewhere in a two day time period he passed what was irritating him. I found stool with silver tinsel garland sticking out of it. I believe he passed it on Wednesday morning, he was still oozing a little that day, but...

    2 year old cat with diarrhea

    My cat Charlie has diarrhea and has had it for a few days now. It isn't real frequent, but he goes around the house "oozing" out of his back end. It smells pretty bad and he keeps dripping on the carpet which is a pain to clean up. I thought it may have been from him chewing on the Christmas...

    Stray Kitten - Possible Rabies?

    Thanks to all who replied to my post about my stray kitten. I am still not sure what to do. I am so scared that this kitten could be carrying rabies, though from what I read it isn't likely. October 22nd marked the 10th day since I have had the kitten and it is not sick. It continues to eat well...

    Stray Kitten - Possible Rabies?

    Hello! I have not posted in such a long time. In fact it has been about a year and a half since I posted. I got a little kitten and knew nothing about how to raise and everybody here was most helpful! Now my "little" baby is a huge adult cat weighing 10+ lbs! Anyway...here is my issue now. The...

    Pet wipes vs baby wipes?

    I was looking at the grooming products at the store today and I noticed that they have "wet wipes" for pets. What are the difference between these and the wet wipes they sell for babies? They look identical but with a different label. The pet wipes did not have an ingredient list so I could not...

    Two and a half days post-spay

    Just thought I'd give everybody an update on my Kitty. She was spayed on Friday morning and besides thinking she is going to go crazy penned up in my bedroom for a week she appears to be doing fine. I examine her incision twice a day for problems and so far so good. The red has faded to a slight...

    My cat was spayed today...

    She seems to be doing pretty well. Tomorrow morning will mark 48 hours since the spay. Today she ate half of a 5 oz can of wet cat food. I have not noticed her throwing up or anything. The only problem I am having now is getting her to take it easy and stop trying to jump up and down off...

    My cat was spayed today...

    At the foot of my bed is my home theater system box. On top of that I have a folded blanket and my Kitty has slept there for months now, because she usually accidentally gets booted while sleeping on my bed with me. She has been sleeping up there all evening and just a few minutes ago she jumped...

    My cat was spayed today...

    Ok. She had food in her dish but she has shown no interest in it. I was just wondering because I know with humans it is harder to control pain once it builds up. If you can take medicine before it gets too bad you are better off and thought maybe it could be the same for animals. Does anybody...

    My cat was spayed today...

    My cat was spayed this morning and she is home already! Is this pretty normal? She appears to be doing pretty well, though as can be expected she is pretty groggy and sleepy. I need some further advice here. Should I not pick her up at all or too much? I did pick her up once and she yelped. I...

    Vaccine side effects?

    Thanks Gayef! The vet told me that my kitty is VERY healthy! She said a kitten usually has something going on, whether it be a respiratory infection or ear mites or something. She had her first exam today and was tested for luekemia and it was negative. She is schedule to be spayed on the 24th...

    Vaccine side effects?

    My cat had her first shots today (the vet figures she is around 8-9 months old) and she has been really sleepy since. She would not come when I called her and I found her curled up behind something sleeping. Is this a normal reaction to vaccines? She had rabies and distemper shots. I also...
