Is there a time frame after the cat has been biten by a flea until they would get worms? and how long after?

This may be a very dumb question but how does an indoor only cat get worms?

I was just curious what is the right age for a kitten to be neutured? I want to make sure it is done at the right age and I don't wait to long but I also don't want the kitten to be too young. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

I had a similar experience as a teenager while at home. We found my cat in the top of a tall tree in the woods. She apparently was the one and only cat who couldn't climb back down a tree once she went up. Maybe a walk through the woods or by the woods might find him. Good luck! Keep us posted.

Thank you all for your advice. I am going to try to look for a Sphynx forum and contact a few breeders online for help. I did not know about the flea and tick medicine not being able to use on a Sphynx- thank you for bringing it to my attention. Thank you all!

We use the same detergent we used when she was a kitten before she started breaking out. She scratches until she bleeds. Gets her baths regularly. We have changed her diet numerous times to rule out food allergies. Tried Revolution, antibiotics, antihistamines, cortizone injections. But...

Did you ever find out what was wrong with your baby? Our female Sphynx had/has this. We have been to 3 different vets and still looking as none of them have been able to find out what it is or how to cure it. Does the kitten itch the red spots? Ours does all the time.

Thank you all very much for your advice. I guess I will continue to keep mommy and baby seperate till baby reaches 5 weeks. Thanks again!

My female cat just had one kitten on Tuesday (7-24-07). She had it in a cat carrier in the laundry room which is fine. But so the other cats and dog did not disturb her we kept her locked in there with her food, water and litter box. We keep her locked in there with the kitten unless we can...

I bought another Sphynx kitten on November 4th. He was 10 weeks old when I got him. The breeder told me he was TICA registered she was just waiting on the papers to come back, when they did she would mail them to me. It is now the end of December and she says she still hasn't received the...

When I took Kloe to the crazy vet trying to make a buck she sold me a moisturizing conditioner for her skin. The bottle is huge and it says Vet Solutions: Aloe & Oatmeal skin & Coat conditioner The bottle says Soothing conditioner formulated with moisturizers Vitamins A, D, & E and Chamomile...

Do all male cats spray? Our cat Tiger was altered when he was 6 months and since he sprays everything. Before he was altred there was no problem. Does it make a difference if they are fixed or not? Two vets have said he is marking his territory there is no medical problem. And I have used...

The sphynx breed from what I've learned from ours is that it is like a child and dog in one. Our sphynx follows us around constantly. There is my husband, 2 daughters and myself in the house. Kloe our sphynx has no preference to anyone of us. She will climb on and lay with who ever gives her...

New to the internet- what does BYB mean?

Thank you all very much for the compliments on Kloe. She is extremely soft-feels like warm silk. She is such a cuttlebug too-usually she sleeps cuddled up against my daughter.

I am going to take my chances with one of the other vets I called even though they have never seen a Sphynx before. It's upsetting a vet would try to make a dollar off of a new client. Thank you all for your help. Here is a picture of Kloe.

I'm stuck when it comes to vets. I called all vets within a 45 minute drive and this was the only one who had ever seen a Sphynx before. (we moved to a very rural area) However she's got me wondering if I shouldn't try my luck with one of the other vets who have never seen a Sphynx. Thanks

I was wondering the same thing but I gave her the benefit of the doubt her being the vet and all. Thank you!

My family recently relocated. I took Kloe our almost 1 year old Sphynx (She will be 1 on the 19th) to the vet for just a "check up" to get to know the vet before I needed one. We have had Kloe now since January and here is where I need the help... The vet told me stop feeding my Sphynx Nutro...

Buy a small litterpan. I know we had a small one about the size of a 9x13 cake pan for in the bathroom until he changed his sleeping habits and we could let him roam free. I know this is rather messy with litter trackings but once he changes his sleeping habits you can phase out the litter box...
