    Female fixed, HUGE lump under stitches

    I got my female fixed Monday (a week ago). A few days ago I checked her stitches to make sure they werent infected and they were fine. Now today I looked and saw all along under her stitches is a huge, huge lump. Maybe about the size of my thumb, and it seems pretty hard. I dont know what it is...

    Cat trying to be the mother?

    I posted before about my new kitten sucking on my male cat, Benji. (He still does by the way haha). The 2 of them seem to be pretty close to each other already. Just recently Benji has tried to (maybe?) pick up the kitten by his neck? (Like a mother would do?) He just chomps at his neck, but not...

    Kitten trying to nurse on male cat?

    I've had 2 cats. And we've just recently found 2 more kitten strays over the past 2 weeks. So I've had them for about 2-3 weeks, and just now one of them is trying to nurse on one of my male cats I've had. We brought the kittens to the vet, and they didnt say anything about them being young. (I...

    Advantage vs Frontline for fleas

    Hi everyone. I've used frontline for my cats' fleas, and this time I got advantage instead. What is the difference? Is one better than the other? Does one do things that the other doesnt? Is one riskier? Thanks

    Cat's Plastic Allergies

    Hi. Just recently (past couple months) my cat was scratching really badly. I brought him to the vet. The vet said that he probably has a food allergy. Which could very well be the case. It doesnt matter anyways because I put him on the diet. My question is, I know cats can be allergic to...

    Scratching At Water Bowl

    Sometimes when Johnny drinks, he kinda scratches/knits at the water bowl WHILE drinking. Either on carpet, plastic or floor. Its not a problem for me, but I've always wondered just why he does it?

    Excessive Licking?

    Hi my cat has been licking off his fur for a while now. Does anyone have any idea why he's doing this? Is it boredom, or is he sick, or something else? His whole under tummy is licked off, his back near the top of his tail is licked off, his back legs are all licked off, and his front arms are...

    Cat urine & Black light?

    For one, I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but the others seemed to fit even less. Anyways.. I've heard that you can see cat urine under a black light. Is this true? And if it's true do you need a special black light, or will any one work? Thanks!

    Cats with worms :(

    Hi. Yet another question. My cats definitely have worms. I see them..you know. Around their bottoms. Anyways, I want to bring them to the vet. Funds REALLY dont allow that right now. So I was told they may have something I can give them that I can buy from walmart, or a store like that. Is...

    Cat Shampoo Brands Okay?

    My kitty seems to have an itchy licky problem, so I'm thinking he might need a bath. I know that unless you want to risk your cat's health, you should buy expensive flea meds. Is this the same with shampoo? We have "Hartz" and "BioGuard". I know the cheap 8$ flea medicine from Hartz is bad --...

    Heart Murmur Life Expectancy

    My kitty Johnny has had a heart murmur all his life. When he was a kitten it was diagnosed as a "4". All his life, it has pretty much stayed the same. (I dont know how bad a 4 is. I dont know if its out of 5, out of 10, or out of 100 or something.) Anyways, he's coming up on his 6th birthday in...

    Advantage Ok? / Odd litter box habits

    I've always been a Frontline user for my cats' fleas, but this time someone bought the flea meds for me, and she got Advantage. I was wondering if Advantage is okay, or just as good as Frontline, and any bad side effects or anything? Thanks! And also..my kitty Benji. He's an odd thing. When...

    Cat heart attack?

    My male cat is about 5 years old. He's had a heart murmur all his life. A 4 I believe. He's always been kinda "slow", lazy...not ever very playful. Not depressed...he just always seemed to have a "I'm cool and relaxed" type of personality. I "adopted" him from a neighbor. For the first few...
