I have 3 cats in my household currently.  My two Rasta and Odie and my foster Cassie.   I noticed a worm in the litterbox hanging out of some feces two weeks ago when cleaning so I had it checked and the vet found roundworm.  I gave my two cats Panacur and my foster (who has a different vet) was...

My 5 month old male kitten is licking himself raw in a couple of spots. Under his back leg and a little bit on his belly by his back leg. I had him fixed exactly a week ago and all seemed fine. I tried to keep him quiet but that's almost impossible with kittens he seems to be healing fine...

I've usually adopted adult cats so teaching them not to bite wasn't an issue.  My first cat was a kitten but I don't remember her biting.  She was more of a scratcher and that was over 30 years ago.   I just adopted this 3 month kitten a week ago and he loves to attack my skin and bit.  He does...

Posting this for my Dad who is looking for advice.   I've never had this problem with my cats so I can't think of anything to tell him.   His cat Julius pees on the tile floor by his litter box after my dad cleans the floor.  My dad says he does this once a day at least and has to clean it only...

Just wondered if this was weird behavior. My short haired domestic cat Rasta will hide under my bed when I start running around cleaning or get busy putting stuff away. She won't come out even if I slow down a minute and call her. She's a very docile cat by the way and totally sweet. Not...

Not sure what to do with him. He was hospitalized at the vets all weekend because he stopped eating and I had to go out of town this weekend and it was too late to cancel. The vet said his UT problems seemed to be stress related. I've been stressed out by fiances for awhile and the expense...

I have a 15 year Persian male cat with super thick long fur. He's put on a few pounds regardless of how careful I've been to feed him only the amount the vet recommended. I just can't get him to exercise at all. Well his weight has made him unable to clean the area around his butt and...

Mine hiss up a storm and view the vacum cleaner as their greatest enemy but when I'm done and everything is in order they romp around like it's Christmas. I do vacum every few days because with two cats (one of them who is thick long haired persian) you just have to due to the amount they shed.

Ok well I'll try and make this short. My older cat Ricky has been sick off and off due to a cold but he's eating now and everything seemed good he was getting along with the new cat Rasta (I adopted her Christmas eve). All was hunky dorey unitil the last week. They have been playing with...

My 15 year old Ricky has had an ongoing cold which I've posted about before. He's eating ok but really picky. He won't touch the science diet wet food anymore and insists on fancy feast. He won't touch the Purina One dry food anymore which he couldn't get enough of till a few days ago....I'm...

He was sick a few weeks ago and I took him to the vet who could find nothing wrong with him except a fever. He had a blood test that came out fine so the vet said he probably had a cold and put him on an anitbiotic. He did well on the antibiotic and seemed his old self but now he's acting...

Looks like my older cat Ricky is having another IBD flare up. I got a new cat recently and started feeding him half dry and half wet. He had been on all wet food but wouldn't eat it as I was feeding the new cat dry food which was what she is used to and she won't eat wet food. So now the dry...

I'm thinking of getting a cat tree for my kitties but one is 15 lbs and the other is 6-8 lbs. I also don't want to spend a lot of money as I'm on a budget. Any advice?

I have been a member for a long time but forgot about this site and haven't been here in years. I have an adorable 13 year yellow male persian Ricky (I've had 12 years) and a 2-3 year old female black short hair Rasta I just adopted on Christmas eve. I'd love more animals but at this point...

I'll make this as short as I can. I adopted a black 2-3 year old black short hair female cat (Rasta) on Christmas eve. I already had a 13 year old persian male (Ricky). I've been keeping them in separate rooms and switching them from time to time so they can get used to each others scents...

My 11 year Ricky may have a liver problem plus IBD. He has a long history of IBD related problems and was even hospitalized last fall for chronic dehydration and throwing up. He seems to get really sick at least one a year so I changed his food to Science diet for older cats and he seemed to...

He's hospitalized at the vets right now but he didn't eat for three days and vomited any fluids injected for all three days. The vet seems stumped. He was using his litter box ok and seemed to have no trouble with those functions so it's not a blockage or UT infection with he has a history...

I have a 8 year old persian mix called Ricky....he's a cool dude but I if I stub my toe, drop something, hit myself ...or basically anytime I get upset real fast due to pain or agrevation he comes over and nips me. He doesn't bite just nips me and he'll keep doing it until I calm down.....lol...

Ricky my 8 year male persian mix has been suffering from a UTI for the past month. He's been to the vet twice and is on his second round of stronger antibiotics but it doesn't seem to be helping. I wanted to know if anyone could offer any words of wisdom. All the vet seems to what to do is...

I have a 7 1/2 year old persian mix male named Ricky. I took him to the vet right be Christmas for a urinary tract infection. He was exrayed and had his urin tested. The vet came up with the urinary infection diagnosis and put him on an antibiotic for a week. He seemed to getting better...
