    Acne gone wrong!

    "Acne gone wrong" is what my vet said to me this morning I took Coco in because she has these awful bleeding/oozing/swollen sores on the sides of her mouth and they won't go away (we were there 10 days ago for the same thing). Coco has never had any incidents of acne in her entire life (she's...

    Coco won't eat :(

    Hi all, about 3 weeks ago Coco had dentistry and 1 tooth extracted, for the first 3 days or so after that she was eating canned food just fine and actually ate more than usual. She seemed to be getting tired of Wellness so I tried a LOT of different brands with very little success. Last week she...

    Tell me the best wet food for picky cat!

    Hi everyone, Coco's vet just called with results of her urinalysis, she has no infection (good) but she is in the early stages of kidney disease (not so good). The vet's recommendation was to feed ONLY wet food from now on so she gets as much water as possible. She has been much better about...

    Is this normal post-anesthesia behavior??

    Hi all, Coco had her dentistry today; she only had 1 tooth extracted and the vet said she did great and there were no issues. I brought her home around 5 today and thus far she has been acting like she's high...she was very excited to be home and super affectionate and incredibly interested in...

    Convincing cat to eat more?

    Hi all, A few weeks ago I switched Coco (14 y/o Maine Coon) to Wellness canned from Fancy Feast, and up until the last couple of days she seemed to like it pretty well...recently though she's been kind of indifferent towards it. She'll eat for a few minutes in the morning then leave it in favor...

    Lame kitty...(it's always something)

    Hi again.. Last week Hallow had worms, so we took him to the vet & got a dewormer for him and Coco. The dewormer seemed to help Coco; she gained a few ounces in the last couple of days (according to my bathroom scale). Maybe she had gotten some worms from the kitten that were eating more of her...

    Now she only wants kitten food?

    I am still in the process of trying to change Coco's food so she can regain weight, but it's becoming very frustrating because she'll like a different food for five minutes then refuse to touch it...it's also getting to be very expensive to keep getting food that she may or may not like. As per...

    Food for weight gain?

    Hi all, I have yet another question regarding my 13 y/o cat's weight... We went to the vet yesterday for a follow-up about an ear infection (that's all gone now), and it seems that over 2 weeks, Coco lost an ounce in weight. I know she's been a little stressed because it was also two weeks ago...

    Hi all, we seem to be progressing well in the introduction of Coco & Hallow, I bought a Feliway diffuser yesterday and Coco has calmed down considerably and now she and Hallow are amicable about being in the same room (they are actually both laying on the bed with me as I'm typing!). The thing...

    Hi all, I am new to the forums here and am looking for some advice! My cat Coco is a 13 y/o Maine Coon, and she has been an only cat since I got her when she was 2 months old.
