One year ago you left me, right around now. If it's time to say goodbye to him can I hold him in my lap? Is it alright if I hold him? I held you and you let go. Thank you for choosing me, boy. And thank you for changing my life. You were so young, so brave. You were the only creature I loved...
I miss you. You're free, boy. Thank you for changing my life, Angus, and making it so much better. Thank you for grabbing hold of the cage door when I went to put you back, and for meowing and sitting on my lap when you didn't even know me, and for trusting me. Thank you for choosing me. I love...
for a cat w/ loose stool? My vet told me not to offer Ernie rice and chicken. I gave her a bit of Fancy Feast chicken in gravy after draining out a bit of the gravy. I kept a bowl of Wellness out at all times up until a few weeks ago when I realized she wouldn't eat it unless I offered it to her...
my cat has had diahrrea since last night. i plan to call my vet in the morning, but am having trouble sleeping b/c i'm so worried. she has an appetite and up until about an hour ago she was very active. very small amounts are coming out. she is able to make it to the litter box. i waited twelve...
My cat gets very excited when I sit down to eat. She climbs on my lap and swats at my hand as I go to put food in my mouth. And she waits for crumbs to fall. She licks the plate. After a few minutes, she calms down and watches me eat. The behavior can be annoying at times, but I am patient. She...
my cat, Ernie, is used to a bottomless bowl of dry food to nibble on as she pleases, and two cans of fancy feast a day. i adopted her last week and would like to make some adjustments to her diet. i'd like to switch to one can a day b/c a) she doesn't finish all the food on the plate, b) two...
I brought my new cat home last night and she went under the bed and hasn't come out. I know this is a common behavior, but she hasn't even come out to use the litter box or eat. I placed the food a few feet from the bed so that she knows it's there. I also put a few treats down on the rug. How...
My cat, Ernestine, who I'm adopting from a friend, is coming home with me on Saturday. I am very excited. Angus passed away in December and I miss him so much, but there's a picture of him above my bed, and one on my bookshelf of him falling asleep on my back.
I went to visit Ernestine a few...
my cat that passed was on innova dry adult cat food.
the cat i'm thinking of adopting is on wet food and has a bowl of dry at all times. it's nine lives or fancy feast. she receives wet food twice a day. i prefer to go with premium foods. i might try something other than innova.
is it wrong...
i'm lonely w/out my boy angus and have been looking to adopt a new cat. i went to an adoption day last saturday and met a boy, kenny dance, who seems to be content with just humans, and he'd be a good pick b/c i can only have one cat.
a friend is trying to find a home for a cat she took in last...
Hello, I am looking at cats and came aross a 5 month old boy that has a very mild case of CH, and a very tiny girl kitten that has a VERY severe case. Having recently lost my first cat to a fatal illness, I want to make sure CH only effects mobility and is not linked to any other illness. Also...
My life is very busy, which is a good thing, and it is during those moments where I can sit down and feel good and relaxed, b/c I accomplished what I set out to do in a day, that I start to think about Angus. Well, I think about him all the time, but during my quiet time I can really remember...
Hello, I'm wondering if there's anything I should keep in mind while disinfecting my apartment after the passing of my cat that suffered from FIP. The shelter recommends I wait three months so that the virus dies off before adopting again, which I plan to do. It gives me time to keep things as...
It's been one month since the passing of my cat, Angus. A year ago this week he came into my life. I adopted him. I remember the day he died so vividly. My mother picked me up and I said, "He always cries when he's in the carrier, it's not because he's in pain." The vet gave me all the options...
my cat threw up a small amount on saturday night and again this morning. this morning he threw up a significant amount and i noticed some unchewed food. i arrived home late last night and angus was hyper and VERY vocal for more than two hours. i gave him attention, but he didn't calm down. i'm...
my cat doesn't always realize that he's near the edge of something and he falls off. and tonight i was making the bed and he went to jump on it, but it was pulled away from the wall and he fell to the floor. sometimes when he jumps onto the couch he falls, which is weird b/c he is fully clawed...
are feline greenies recommended? my cat had diarhea last night and i'm wondering if it's from the greenies. i didn't give them to him today. i can't find much info on them when i search. 6-8 twice a day seems like a lot of treats for a cat. i usually give my cat two frisky treats in the morning...
my cat has a claw that grows between two toes. i am having a terrible time clipping it and fear that it will grow into his paw pad. i clipped the rest of his nails today and tried to cip the extra one, but he whined and jumped away. a friend tried to assist me with it a little while later and he...
angus has a mat right outside his litter box, but he steps out on the other side to avoid it and walks across the room to his food/wood dish placemat and wipes his feet there instead. i think it's cute and funny, and it doesn't really bother me. i don't really have a question i guess. i'm just...
