not anaphylaxis by any means! Cheeto has to get up really close to me (he does this often) and I will get red eyes, teary, sniffly, congested, and typical hayfever type symptoms. It was my primary care physician who poo-poo'd me for keeping my cat. It's not like I'm allergic to a perfume I own...
My cat headbutts too but not in a way that leaves bruises! I would try the blowing technique and see if it works. This thread made me laugh at the quirkiness of our cats!
I'm allergic to my cat. I love him too much to give him up (as my doctors coldly advised me to do) and I just want to live with it. He isn't too keen on baths but I do use the Furminator when I can. I also use these clothes that bathe him without using water.
Am I crazy for keeping him?
I will have to try the nose blowing technique! I doubt he would like that very much.
I also have another cat (female) who is gentle and loving. However, Cheeto doesn't get along with her and is always picking fights with her. I could make a whole thread on that!
My little guy Cheeto (or orangey as I affectionately call him) is a special lil cat. He's a DMH, neutered, and about a year old. He is very needy and loves being around me ALL the time, which is fine because I love having a furry companion.
The problem is that he can be too needy and recently...
My husband took him to the vet because I was sick. Hubby didn't know much about the situation and didn't explain it was a CHRONIC problem and the tech must have thought that it was a one time deal. I am bringing him to another vet (based on this thread, thanks) because it doesn't appear to be...
the vet didn't actually see him - the tech said since the cat looked normal that it wouldn't be worth our money to have him seen. No expression of glands and no actual exam.
Hi there! I wondering about my 1 year old male neutered cat. He has this stench sometimes and it is disgusting! It happens probably once every 2 weeks. It gets on my sheets and on my blankets, clothing etc.
He licks the area and doesn't scoot. There doesn't appear to be any inflammation and...
When my cat wants my attention, he will put his paw up on my arm and meow. I'll be sitting at the computer and I will feel this human-like tap on me and there he is! What cute things do your cats do?
I have been gone for 7 days on a honeymoon and my cats are acting strangely. We had a few friends look after them and give them food, play, etc. But now that we're back it's like the cats don't know what to do!
I have one cat who is normally attached at the hip to me and he's just kinda chill...
I just got married and we went on a honeymoon at an all-inclusive resort in Cancun. The weather was great and I loved the place but I missed my two little cats. I had a friend cat-sit for me.
Anyway, I had these cat sightings. I was in the restaurant and saw a cat just sitting there looking...
