So, I posted here a couple of weeks ago that Chiquita got spayed. She was very very active from moment one, and because I have my other two cats, one of which is a little nut that considers Chiquita his personal play toy, I've kept them separate for two weeks when not supervised. She had skin...

The vet told me she doesn't need to return to remove stitches, because they used skin glue. I'm told to keep the "huge" collar for 10 days, but she can't eat with it, so I'm taking it off for her meals but putting it right back on. I feel bad because I'm keeping her separate from her buddies...

WOW! I think I did it! I followed all the instructions and so far so good. Here's the story... I have a very skittish 4 yr old female that I rescued from the park beside my house when she was 5 months old and pregnant. After much agonizing I decided to end her pregnancy when I spayed her...

I tried to search for any threads on this topic but gor no luck, so if I'm repeating it please forgive me and be good enough to point me to the thread... After losing Temper and Polkie last year, both living a good long life, but still hard to take (Temper succumbed to unspecified cancer at...

I noticed this ever for the first time in a lifetime of living with cats. Little Mojo, after a particular active bout of play, settled down against me and for a couple of minutes was having obvious hiccups. It only lasted a minute or two but if freaked me out, especially since he just got his...

I have a kitten that I got when he was very young (too young I know) but I got him from my vet at 5 weeks. He is perfectly healthy, eats great, plays like crazy and bonded to my spayed 3 year old female immediately. Just yesterday and today I started noticing a new behaviour though. He will...

Here's a little video that I took of my babies earlier today Sorry about the shot of the overflowing recycling bin...

First of all..... Mods, if I am posting this in the wrong forum, please feel free to move it. I tried to post it in the IMHO forum but it told me I didn't have enough rights,,, I was wondering if some of us in the forum are not scaring potential and caring cat owners from caring for a cat...

I have no idea why her eyes turned out that colour. I tried the red eye feature but nothing changed. Mojo just slept blissfully on under her tail. [/url][/IMG]

I wasn't sure where to post this, but since it doesn't involve an actual health problem I opted for this forum. I was wondering at what age a kitten's eye colour becomes definite. Mojo is just short of 7 weeks but I can't tell for sure what the eye colour is (I was trying to add his profile...

I need some advice from the pros. After losing two cats in the space of 1 year (they were old, I know,,,but still..) I've made the decision to go all wet. I have a 2 year old spayed female who is already too chubby for her own good and I now have a 6 1/2 week old kitten. Trying to save on...

Mojo has been in the house for one week now. He is 6 weeks old today. From moment one, Dusky, my 2 year old spayed female that I rescued from the park next door when she was about 6 months old, treated him like her own little kitten. Two weeks after I took her in, on the second vet visit for...

I put my 17 year old Polkie to sleep on Thursday night. He had CRF. While crying and waiting for paperwork I saw a sign and an empty cage. It said "ADOPT US" That night Dusky, my 4 year old female cat cried all night for Polkie. I went back to the vet's and got Mojo. A 5 week old male that...

Polkie as totally recovered from a possible "kidney infection or UTI or Irritable Bowel Disease". The vet never did decide what it was, but Polkie is back to normal and more sprite than ever. Dusky, a silly and too active 9 months is helping. Temper, my senior, just does what he does best...

I have a huge problem Temper has an eye infection. Today I took him to the vet and he prescribed this eye ointment. The vet assistent is a pro and when she showed me how to apply it, it seemed so simple. Temper (true to his name) now seems to remember the procedure and will jerk his head as...

This morning I got up to find that almost every room in the house had evidence of vomiting (so I thought at the time). Watery stuff but also very dark stuff too. Because I have 3 cats I wasn't sure who was doing it. At first I thougt Temper, my 15yr old cat but soon it was clear that Polkie...
