I, too, have a cat that loves water. I recently posted asking what to do with my kitty that keeps playing in his water and tipping it over. Whenever my kids brush their teeth, he is right there waiting to jump into the sink!! Same thing with the shower. We have a leaky faucet and he sits...

Hi Everyone, My 7 month old kitten is constantly knocking over his water bowl. No matter how much water I put in it (a little, or a lot), ultimately he starts playing with it and eventually it is all over the floor. This poses two problems - one being that my kitchen floor is constantly wet...

Hi everyone, I have a 6 month old kitten. I free-feed him dry food and I give him a 3oz can of wet (half in the morning, half at night) per day. Is this enough food? I feel like he is always looking for more wet food. He follows me into the kitchen constantly - meowing, and if I open the...

Thank you for your help - I appreciate giving me all the information - I agree, it is best to know all the possibilities!! Sandy

You guys are the best!!! You have defintely calmed my nerves a bit. Honestly, I didn't sleep all night thinking about this. Is there something I can do, besides vacuuming, to get rid of the eggs that may be in my carpet and furniture? He also pooped on my carpet a few nights ago - I...

When the kids found out what he had, they got grossed out and decided that they would not hold him until this is cleared up. They are playing with him, but are definitely washing their hands afterwards. I am more concerned about the damage already done. Could it be possible that since he...

I posted a few days ago about my kitty having the same problem. I took him to the vet today and he has worms. He was dewormed at the shelter, but sometimes one time doesn't do it. So the vet dewormed him again and gave me another dose of the meds to give him in 2 weeks and then we go for a...

I just got back from the vet with my new kitty and he has roundworms. They dewormed him and gave me another dose to give him in 2 weeks. I am really grossed out by thought of seeing the worms when he poops, but what is really concerning me are my kids. They have been playing with him...

My orange cat had the stones - not sure which kind, but they were described to me as very sharp. Unfortunately he didn't have a good outcome - he was male and they kept getting stuck and he couldn't urinate. After the second blockage they did surgery, but one was imbedded and the vet said they...

We adopted a kitten on Sunday from a local shelter. They were feeding him dry kitten chow and a wet food (not sure which kind). His stool was fine for the first day. I continued to give him the dry kitten chow, but added a little Iams kitten food (wet). Today his stool is much more loose and...

Hi Everyone, I am new to the boards. I just adopted an 8 week old male kitten from our local shelter. I had a cat for 10 years, but he just passed away due to complications from bladder stones. I don't have any experience with kittens - we adopted my other cat when he was 8 months old. He...
