    OK my weird Vet is at it again

    Her fat is fat, not swollen belly from FLV for FIP (I can't remember which does this) - it's solid lumpy bumpy fat dangling off her belly. This came about after her spay. Now, my other cat is spayed, is big too, but she's an all over huge cat, she never was fat - her head almost reaches my...

    OK my weird Vet is at it again

    Oh I don't mind the raw suggestion, I don't have a problem with that. It was just surprising! We don't feed wet food, only dry food.

    OK my weird Vet is at it again

    I'll probably get flack for this, but we're kind of in financial problems right now so we're feeding them Purina One mixed with Goodlife Healthy Recipe. My cats have absolutely adored this Goodlife food, but my Vet calls it cat food candy, well he says anything off the shelf is cat food candy...

    OK my weird Vet is at it again

    I guess what I meant to ask but didn't is what do you think of the advice? Have you ever heard anything like this? I understand eating because you're missing something, it happens to me with bananas if my water pill works too well. I crave them, like I crave spinach and liver when I get...

    OK my weird Vet is at it again

    We are the ones with the kitten with the weight problem. She is huge and no matter how little we feed her she just keeps gaining. My other cat is about to starve to death because if Sniggles doesn't eat Punky won't eat (they are so strange). Anyway, took Snigg to the vet yesterday and he said...

    Higher brain behaviors... or something like that.

    well as long as you guys don't think I'm starkers... that will work for me I do think that they know things we don't know. Punky always tells us when the UPS or FedEx truck is here before we even see the truck. She runs like heck to the other room. She doesn't when other people come, just them.

    Higher brain behaviors... or something like that.

    You know I forgot my main question which is: Do you think that they are detecting something? They go for the pit with shaving or out, with or without deodorant, freshly showered or fresh from hard work. Doesn't matter.

    Higher brain behaviors... or something like that.

    Gosh, I'm not even sure how or where to place this question/comment. I'll just jump right in: Years ago I had a tumor in my armpit, I had to have it removed, it wasn't cancerous or anything, just a lump. After I had it removed on of my cats rooted in my pit constantly until I'd get sore...

    A weighty issue

    I mistyped earlier, when I said the kittens who appear to be stoned out of their minds are my mother's they're my mother in laws. That is my mother's kitten, Jazzy - he is Sniggles brother and twice her size already. I know there are a lot of sink cats, mine aren't though, this guy as you see, is.

    A weighty issue

    The vet told us that Sniggles is probably going to weight about 11-13 pounds and be a big cat. Right now she really only weighs about 7 pounds, and she's tall. Believe it or not, Punky is the size of a small dog and only weighs 13 pounds herself, but she's such a tank. They both have such...

    A weighty issue

    I'm thinkin that our kitties have a bit of a waistline issue.... This is Sniggles, she's just past 5 months old.... (scuse my dirty floor, my shoulder's been out) This is Punky - she's just big everywhere, sitting in her Palace (aka my 120 year old smoking table) And then... no weight...

    This is just insane!!

    When I had Sniggles spayed last month, it was $60 for the spay and $40 for a full compliment of shots. Jazzy, my mother's cat goes in for his neuter in a few weeks and it will be $40.00 - I better not tell my Vet about what my MIL paid or he could jack up his prices too. He's a good down home...

    This is just insane!!

    My MIL adopted two kittens about the same time I adopted Ms. Sniggles, we had thought she got two girls, but there was some question about one and we decided it looked like he may have had boy junk, but then again they were super young when she got them so we weren't sure. The vet wasn't even...

    Maximum recommended number of cats in a flat?

    As long as you can keep the apartment clean and not get carried away and adopt so many cats that you can't keep up after them. I would recommend at least 2 litter boxes for 3 cats too... at the minimum. You should also check with your landlord and make sure they don't care if you have 3 cats.

    Minor kitten problem post spay

    OK well he and I just talked on the phone and he said that he gives the cats a shot to prevent infections and usually it's right there since they're on their backs under the anesthesia. He said that if she has a knot there, that's a good sign that it's working and if it changes from a pecan...

    Minor kitten problem post spay

    Sniggles was spayed on the 14th, she's doing pretty well, she was actually woozy for about 2 days after the surgery and has had a really clean healthy looking incision. (Although she did get a nipple topped off when he shaved her) I was holding her tonight, and it was really obvious she wanted...

    Kitten health concerns, URGENT

    I think what you did is really heroic, but I worry that if you're found out that it could be a major deal legally anyway... be very careful until you know you're safe. And that's all the Debbie downer I'm going to be.

    My kitty is stinky :|

    I had no clue that they'd exude a smell that I'd be able to detect. I'm glad I know now - I will watch her extra careful now. She's always been such a little lover, and she's really ramped up her play time lately, she's beating the crud out of the older cat now. They play rough, but they seem...

    My kitty is stinky :|

    Sniggles is going to be 4 mos, on the 15th. She's scheduled to go in for a spay sometime after that, we have to check finances.... anyway. Not every single day but some days... she smells musky, not musTy, just heady and ummmm earthy smelling. No way to describe it really. It's not like...
