    Throwing up issues

    So my 2 and half male has now thrown up about 5 times. First one was a hairball. He then proceeded to throw up 3 more times in a half hour, clear and foamy liquid. So chalked that up to hairballs again. Then I saw him going around my place and eating stuff, mostly hair, off the floor. He...

    Harness size

    So now the weather is getting nice here and I have decided to try to take one of my cats out with me in my second floor balcony to hang with me since he loves looking out the window so much. I am not sure how my other cat will do and I may try with her later. Shadow is a big boy. He is...

    Fluctuating weight issue

    I am not sure if I should be worried about my 2 year old Calico cat, Cali. She is small in stature and I have noticed since I rescued her in November of 2013, she tends to gain 2-5 pounds then goes to a normal weight and about 2 months later she will gain 2-5 pounds again. It is constantly going...

    Bad mood or in pain?

    So my soon to be 17 month old cat Shadow sometimes goes into these weird moods but is fine the next day. It happens about once a week. When I go to pet him, especially on his left side, he will growl at me and if I try to look future he hisses at me. It starts with him turning his back in...

    Question on worms

    So Cali has worms and both her and Shadow are being treated. My question is if they can be passed to dogs? I ask this because my mom is coming here on Christmas Eve and she is bringing her to small dogs. Just wondering if they would get it if it is being treated and a week later?

    Red jelly like substance in poop

    I rescued Cali 2 and half weeks ago. She previously had a UTI and aborted the children she was carrying due to an infection in that area. She had to have an emergency spay because of that infection. She is 12 months old and was 10 months old when she was pregnant with the infections. Just...

    Integrating a new cat

    A little bit of background. I have had my male cat, Shadow, since he was 2 months old. He is now a HUGE 14 month old boy, neutered of course. When he was 5 months old, I fostered two girls who were sisters for 4 months. Playing with with them included chasing and wrestling. He was the only...

    Behaviour after neutering

    So I got my little boy neutered a couple weeks ago.  I was hoping he would calm down a bit, but it seems he went the other way.  He has become more crazier.  Is this normal?  When will he calm down a bit?

    Is this normal for a 7 month old kitten

    My 7 month old kitten was weighed for his neutering today and he weighed in at 10.5 lbs! Is it normal to be big at thus age? He is very lanky and long but not fat at all. He has been given a good bill of health since he was 8 weeks. He doesnt over eat at all. If he is like this at 7 months...

    My 4 and half month old kitten has a runny stool that stinks as well.  I am wondering what he could have.  He has been dewormed twice now and his stool still stinks.  I feed him wet and hard food.  Is there something I could do to help his stool get more solid?

    Shadow and his guinea pig sisters

    So a month ago I brought in a kitten.  He is almost 12 weeks now.  I have four guinea pigs and everyone I talked to said that cats and guinea pigs get along well.  They were right.  Shadow loves them, even wants to play with them (they are in a cage, so it won't happen).  My guinea pigs even...
