Hey all. It's been a while since I've written in the forums. I've been having a problem with Patch recently, and was wondering if anyone had any reasons why he might be doing this and suggestions on how I can stop him from doing it. For some reason, he keeps tipping over his water bowl before he...
I know, I think it's unique because it's so dark. I never noticed it when I brought him home, but over the past couple weeks it's gotten darker and more noticable. He's one "kool kat".
Thanks for the comments guys! He is a real sweetie. Very affectionate and playful. He loves crawling up on my...
I've been looking at all the cute pictures of everyone's babies, so I thought I'd put some up of my little man, Patch.
This is Patch with one of his fave toys, at straw!! LOL. He's not into expensive things....
Hello Patch.
He just loves his straws!
Ahh, he's tired from all that play...
That's great news! I just found this thread and I think it's just terrible how some people can be so cruel to animals. How can anyone be so mean to such sweet, loving and cuddly creatures as cats?! I truely hope he gets what's coming to him!! As for Cosmo, Patch and I are sending healing vibes...
Oh, that's terrible!! I'm not a vet and thankfully I haven't been through anything like that, at least not with a pet that young, but I would just like to say that I think you should explore every option before making that tough decision. If the vet still doesn't find anything major, and you...
My magazines and clothes need your help! LOL. Patch is four months old and is constantly chewing on everything, especially my magazine covers and clothes. I was wondering if anyone out there has any suggestions on what I could give him to help him though the teething thing while saving my...
My baby Patch is going through that right now. It's an upper respiratory infection. He also had symptoms of sneezing a lot and some discharge in his eyes. He's been on the meds now for three days and it's beginning to clear up. He's stopped sneezing all the time and the black stuff isn't showing...
I tried the step by step method for giving pills, and all it got me was scratched and he end up foaming at the mouth. This evening I tried crushing it up in some wet kitten food and he ate that right up. THANK GOODNESS!!! I was beginng to wonder if I would ever find something that he'd take the...
I tried your suggestion of the spray cheese, although in my area of Canada they don't sell spray cheese so I tried some plain cream cheese. He took the cheese without the pill easily and loved it. When I gave him the piece with the pill, he ate the cheese and spat out the pill!! I really...
I'm still having trouble giving Patch his pills. I've tried crushing them up in some honey, but that wasn't the best idea I've ever had. He started drooling really bad and I thought I had really hurt him and he scared me. Thankfully he stopped in a few minutes. This morning I tried crushing it...
Hi ya'll. I just got back from the vet's office and Patch just has a slight upper-respiratory infection and he'll be fine in a few days. What I was hoping was that if someone could tell me is how to give him his pills to make it easier on both of us. I've never given a cat pills before. My dog...
Thank you all so much for your advice. I've made an appointment for Patch with the vet on Monday. I hope it's only a slight infection and that it won't cost too much. I'll be sure to let ya'll know how he's doing. Thanks again!
Patch's Mom.
Hi all. I recently adopted a new kitten from the local animal shelter. This is the first time I've gotten a kitten from a shelter. I usually got them from a family member, or from an add in the local paper. He's about four months old and I've noticed that he sneezes quite a bit and in the...
