For a few months now my cat has been scratching his right ear until it bled. The following link is where I first described the ordeal of trying to figure out what was causing his scratching: http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=209063 After different tests - blood panel, limited...

Coda does the exact same thing! And if her paws are cold she makes sure to put them against me to warm them up.

It's a good thing that most of my work is done on the computer, because as soon as I lay a piece of paper down Nico is trying to eat it and/or steal it. One evening I decided to work in bed and when I was done I left my stack of papers on the bedside table. I woke up in the middle of the night...

I only wish my cats would always come when I called them. Both know their names and will look at me or meow if I say their names, but only come when it's in their best interest. Coda will come if I have her favourite toy in my hand (a little red ball) and it looks like I'll be throwing it for...

My Nico ALWAYS gets red ears when we go to the vet. He's so afraid of the vet that he cowers in the corner, doesn't budge, trembles, and gets really red ears. My poor boy

My Coda is like that. When she meows it's for one of two things: either her favourite toy, a little red ball, is under the couch and she can't reach it; or she's hungry and wants you to pet her and tell her she's a good girl. She will eat by herself if my fiancee and I aren't home but if we're...

There are some foods and supplies that I can't find in any pet stores in my local area and I'm considering buying them online. The problem though is that most online stores (amazon, drs foster and smith, etc.) cost a fortune in shipping. Where do you canadians buy your online supplies?

My cat has a hot spot at the base of his ear that he's been scratching bloody. The vet has determined that it is very likely a food allergy and I'm currently putting him on an elimination diet that seems to be reducing his scratching. The problem though is that his sore will start to heal, he...

When at the vet we opted for a complete blood panel to rule out any underlying issues. The results came back and he's healthy and his results are all normal. The vet believes that it may be a food allergy and we now have to start an elimination diet. She suggested we start by cutting chicken...

On a side note, he is trained to wear a harness and leash. I'll have to call the vet and verify if they will accept us possibly bringing him in this way, but does anyone have any experience bringing a cat to the vet on a harness? I kind of hesitating at the idea since many things could go...

So I made the appt and the vet will see him tomorrow. His sore is still red but it doesn't look any worse today, so that's a positive sign that he hasn't been scratching at it. What kind of questions should I be asking the vet? I'm kind of suspecting allergy as well, but don't even know how to...

For dry I've been feeding him EVO and Taste of the Wild. For wet, I feed him a variety a stuff: -Almo Nature (fish and chicken varieties) -Eagle Pack Holistic Lamb and Chicken -Snappy Tom -Before Grain (chicken, turkey, quail) -EVO 95% Chicken and Turkey -Authority A few of those wet's are...

My poor cat has just developed a sore on his right ear. It seems to have just appeared overnight and is due to aggressive scratching. I don't think it's due to fleas as I have checked both my cats (and carpeting) and cannot find any sign of fleas (I even tried the white paper test). It is...

Just out of curiosity, is there a specific reason or is it out of personal preference?

I'm still searching for something they'll like... I have a few cans left of some of the better stuff to try before giving them FF. One thing I haven't tried yet is Tiki Cat. Next time I stop by the petstore I'll definately get that for them to try. What is the consistency like? They will...

When my cat Coda was younger she would do the arched back, sideways hop thing. It was her way of telling us that she wanted to play and have someone chase her. It was the cutest thing EVER. She's not black though, but grey and white.

You have a very cute cat. I love his name!

I have two one-year old cats; one male and a female. Lately, they have been getting very picky about their wet food and are barely eating any. I was feeding them EVO 95% chicken and turkey, which they use to LOVE, and some wellness grain-free flavours, but in the last month they have been...
