    Extremely cat aggressive cat

    Hi all! I’m hoping someone has some insight or suggestions, about 2 months ago I adopted a cat- who I knew upfront would be a challenging cat, but after months at the shelter and an increasingly bad rap (fighting other cats when the shelter tried to socialize him, bit employees) I decided I had...

    Is my new kitten a boy or girl?

    I just got a new kitty- 8 weeks old, she was the kitten of a stray kitty who wandered into a coworkers yard and had kittens. My coworker thinks she’s a girl but just wanted to confirm that because she’s so fluffy I can’t quite tell. Thank you for any help!

    Any insights on the background of these kittens?

    Does my cat have any devon rex lineage?

    Hi all, unfortunately my sweet boy crossed the rainbow bridge last weekend but I recently stumbled across the devon rex breed of cats and couldn’t help but wonder if my dsh cat had some devon rex in him. I think it’s his almond shaped eyes. He was also a loyal companion and would play fetch...

    Could this have been FIP?

    Hi all, unfortunately my 12 year old cat crossed the rainbow bridge last weekend, and I am hoping to find more insight on what happened to him. For the last month he had presented with significant muscle wasting and weight loss. In his prime he weighed 9 lbs and at death he weighed right under 6...

    Teen Cat Bites Hard

    Hi all! I have a teen cat (5-6 months old) that has had a biting issue since we got him (he was very young likely only 5-6 weeks) and have not had much success with curbing the biting. He can be very loving, but bites, and HARD after a pet or two. He will wrap his arms around yours and chomp...

    Is this a baby tooth?

    My teen cat (roughly 5 months old) was chewing on a toy tonight when I heard a snap and to my surprise his fang was loose! It promptly fell out but did not bleed much. My cat continued as normal, no signs of pain or anything, and he does have what might be an erupting adult tooth next to it, but...

    12 week old kitten bites hard

    Hi all! Looking for any experience or advice for a kitten who is biting/chewing hard? Franklin is roughly 12 weeks (maybe a little more) old, and since I adopted him (he was only 5-6 weeks when we received him) he has always been very playful, but he chews HARD. It is hard to play with him with...

    What is my kittens gender?

    Hi all! I was fairly certain of the gender of my new kitten, but the more I research telling the genders apart, the less sure I am of whether our new baby is a boy or girl! We can't get in to the vet until next week for our first check up. Opinions? He/she needs a name soon! :)

    New kitten! Can anyone tell how old?

    Hi all! I just adopted a new kitten from a friend's cats litter. They were unsure how old the kittens are but they estimated 8-9 weeks. I am curious as he is still teeny tiny with blue eyes. He was definitely the runt of the litter though, as his siblings were noticeably larger. We couldn't get...

    Dramatic changes in senior cats eye color?

    My fur baby just passed over the rainbow bridge Monday, but preceding his death in the last month or so, I noticed his eyes changed drastically. He used to have bright lime green eyes, and before his death they were dark brown/orange and the pupil was irregular and more dialated than normal. Has...

    Missing my fur baby & dealing with children's grief

    My sweet 3 legged boy "Fur" crossed the angel bridge on Monday, after 12 years with me. He was full of life until the end, but hid his symptoms so well. He took a steep quick decline and one week after being checked out at the vet and deemed healthy, passed away in my arms. One thing I didn't...
