I think my cat has a broken leg. At first I thought it was just a torn cruciate ligament, a problem she has had before twice that caused her limping, which my vet cured in the past by simply prescribing Cosequin Regular and telling me to confine her to a small area where she cannot change levels...

My cat came in from the rain yesterday soaking wet. Eventually I noticed she smelled bad and found that she had feces all over her. She has a bad habit of taking a crap, and not covering it with litter, leaving exposed stinking poo. I guess that habit did not serve her in this instance! For now...

Have you tried feeding him salvaged meat leftover from your family's meals? Most Americans waste alot of food everyday, if you gather those scraps and he likes it, maybe he can start putting on weight. I know when my previous cat had cancer, it would aggressively take meat from the table. You...

Well one of my cats was chronically vomiting back in 2010, I created a thread about it here: http://www.thecatsite.com/t/219122/cat-cant-hold-down-food-constant-vomiting I received lots of hysteric, scare-mongering advice after telling that I decided to let my cat fast. When I went to my vet...

My cat Fangs has some behavior problems regarding food. She is very picky about it. She seems to almost only enjoy wet cat food chunks in gravy. I used to give her the cheaper 9 lives brand, but she prefers Fancy Feast now. However she often eventually refuses to eat a certain flavor of Fancy...

The last few days my cat who is normally very, very vocal for a cat has lost her voice. She still opens her mouth and tries to meow often, she makes an initial noise, but cannot continue audibly. She also has lost most her appetite. I have tried to feel for tumors and I cannot notice any.  Has...

@Momofmany: I searched for Lymphocytic-Plasmacytic Gingivitis Stomatitis (LPGS) and found this: http://www.dentalvet.com/vets/cats/LPGS.htm Some of the symptoms listed my cat has, but she definitely does not have dysphasia(loss of communication skills) or weight loss. Does anyone know if...

This someone else wants a fellow forumer to kidnap someone's else cat because they think the world is some utopia in their head, and that said cat can get a better deal that way.  As for the actual "graphic picture" it is not even a serious or infected wound. I get worse open wounds on myself...

I have also been to local shelters when I picked up my current cat in 2009 and feral cats do not make good adoptions, at best they are barely socialized to humans. No kill shelters will not take any strays, municipal ones take them(but segregate them), feral organizations will maybe help trap...

@Sugarcatmom: Horrible advice. In most areas shelters are overloaded. I don't know what makes you think there are "rescue organizations" with huge resources out there to perform free unlimited vet care. In many shelters it is more likely to die along with lots of other "surplus" cats. I think...

My cat has a chronic bad breath and drooling problem. I took her to the vet and he said that the cat had bad teeth and likely would need two visits to remove most or all her teeth from each side. The vet says it is likely eosiniophilic plasmocytic gingivitis.  I have some questions and concerns...

If that cat is pooping all the over the place why allow it a free run of the house? If you have an extra bathroom just lock that problem cat in there and put several layers of newspaper on the floor. With free reign in the house the cat maybe does not go to litter because it can avoid the...

I think the people on this site are exaggerating about how bad fasting is given the circumstances. I took the cat to the vet on Monday. The vet said that fasting her was a good idea and recommend me to continue the fast and feed her Tuesday morning when her medications should be in her system...

I got charged 591.67 US dollars to extract three of my cat's teeth in the total bill, but they did alot of other procedures because my cat had a very bad breath and a drooling problem that turned out to be mostly from her bad teet(but she still drools a bit at times even after). The breakdown...

The last few days my cat has been constantly vomiting. I am gonna try to let her fast for all of Sunday and maybe even a bit of Monday to clean out her system. It is not like she can hold it down anyway, the more I feed her the more I have to clean up her vomit. If after Monday morning she...

"Responsible breeder" is a useless jargon to hide the sad reality. I could be a hypothetical "responsible breeder" in my area. Under this doctrine I could have bred some 50 kittens and found for them "responsible homes" since I am such a "responsible breeder". Also I would have charged far more...

If you get a new cat get a shelter rescue. If you want a new car, maybe you want a sports car. If you want a new motorcyle maybe you want a loud Harley. But cats are living beings. Sure you have some requirement like in your post, the new adoptee would have to accept living with five other...

I did not leave any sardine outside for her at that point. I was in the process of chopping up the same sardine I was walking around with. I was gonna place it inside by the left-open screen door so it could have wafted out scent. Since it was night she probably wanted to hunt anyway and leaving...
