    Why does my cat twitch her back sometimes?

    I didn't know what else to put in the title so hopefully I can make some sense out of this. My cat is now just a little over 1 year old. She is 100% healthy always has been. Something I have noticed her do and she has always done this as long as I can remember so it may very well be normal I...

    Got new kitten now our 2 yr old cat isnt happy. Need advice

    Thanks for all the replies. I worded that wrong we did not actually force them to be together we are letting them do their own thing now while they can be supervised otherwise we keep them in seperate rooms still. So far our two year old has yet to come down from ontop of the kitchen cabinets.

    Got new kitten now our 2 yr old cat isnt happy. Need advice

    Well we picked up a three month old kitten yesterday and tried to do our best introducing them. We left the kitten in the bedroom with her own litterbox and food/water and kept our existing two year old in the rest of the place. We put them together once and the little one could careless (she...

    So many problems I dont even know what to do anymore.

    Wow very sorry to hear about that spritedstef. I hope the rest of your cats will be ok. I ended up going to the Humane Society one last time to see her just a bit ago. When I got there she was already having seizures :-( wasnt the prettiest site so we both knew it was time for her. Atleast now...

    So many problems I dont even know what to do anymore.

    I just got off the phone with the lady from the Humane Society where she just got the blood test results back from the vet. Im still a bit shocked now because what she told me was certainly not what I expected. My little kitten has a fatal disease called FIP virus and she is dying She doesnt...

    So many problems I dont even know what to do anymore.

    I ended up first taking her to the Humane Society where I adopted her from to see what they say. She wanted to keep her until tomorrow to see if she can get her to eat and have their vet check her tomorrow morning first thing. I said sure so thats where she is now and will find out whats going...

    So many problems I dont even know what to do anymore.

    When I adopted my kitten a few weeks back I never knew things were going to be like this. I want to do everything I can to keep her healthy but if its not one thing its another. She is now just over 3 months old. I noticed she will never want to play with her toys mainly just sleep or sit on my...

    Very tiny worm looking things from where kitten lays.

    Sorry I didnt put something else in the picture to scale the flea dirt. Its just I tried that and then it instantly would not focus on the flea dirt. Thats why I tried to emphasize that these things are VERY small.

    Very tiny worm looking things from where kitten lays.

    Well I have spent a good portion of today doing laundry hoping to rid any fleas they may have had. My question is what do I do to clean the carpet? After some research most people dont recommend using anything you can buy at Petco or Petsmart as it is bad for the cats. So what the heck do you...

    Very tiny worm looking things from where kitten lays.

    If you are referring to the Advantage flea stuff the tube was very small (not sure if this makes a difference). The doctor also asked how old she was before doing anything. I would say the tube was a little smaller than your average pen cap. I will keep an eye on her though thanks for the...

    Very tiny worm looking things from where kitten lays.

    Thanks very much again. One more question though. You said that in some cases if the kitten had Advantage applied to her that it can actually kill all fleas in the apartment. Is this really true in some cases? The vet applied the entire tube to her back area just behind her neck. I just have a...

    Very tiny worm looking things from where kitten lays.

    Ok guys well here is the news (bad news) that is. I just got back from the vet and they checked her out. I also explained what these little things were that I am seeing. He did find some fleas on her however very few. He then checked her out and she has tape worms :-( He showed me and they were...

    Very tiny worm looking things from where kitten lays.

    Ok is that an internal problem then? Because she doesnt scratch herself at all and I checked her entire body and did not see any signs of anything on her skin. I will look into getting her to a vet right now. Anymore input is appreciated. Thanks, James

    Very tiny worm looking things from where kitten lays.

    I know its been a while since I followed up with this thread, but I am seeing so many of these things on my bed. I ended up doing what you recommended and the small thing did infact turn to a somewhat redish color and kind of disintegrated into the water into a brownish red color. So what...

    Very tiny worm looking things from where kitten lays.

    yeah im not exactly thrilled about it. lol As far as deworming im not 100% sure. The paperwork from the Humane Society said for me to bring her in on 7-25-06 which I did and the only thing they did was some sort of nasal tube in her nose. Under Fecal Exams/Deworming it says 7-23-06 and STRONGID...

    Very tiny worm looking things from where kitten lays.

    I didnt know how else to state the topic to this thread but I have noticed now for a while these VERY small brown worm looking things in areas where my 3 month old kitten lays. I mainly notice it on my bed because I have white sheets. They are brown and rounded and very small. I cant tell if its...

    Kitten was using litterbox fine, now she doesnt. help!

    Starting to get a little frustrated here. I have 10 week old kitten that has all of a sudden stopped using her litterbox. The first day I brought her home she did #1 and 2 in my dining room and I figured it was no big deal since we literally just brought her home. For about 2 weeks she was using...

    Thanks for the quick replies its nice to see a site that actually has activity. I figured she was doing her best and might just take some time for her to learn. Here is a pic of her reading her replies on the forums

    Not using litter box properly. She is in it but not going in it. lol

    First time poster here I am the proud "parent" of a 10 week old brown tabby. She is absolutely wonderful and so far she seems to be enjoying her new home. She only went to the bathroom not in her litterbox once and that was the day I brought her home and only happened once. She now goes in her...
