    Annual shots?

    See this is why I figured I'd ask, because I was not sure. My boy NEVER goes outside except when I took him to get fixed and when we moved. He is absolutely terrified of the outdoors so him getting out is not an issue for me.

    Please HELP. Two week old kitten "grunting" ?

    I took him to the animal hospital emergency room. They said his stomach was bloated and they believed it was something.. i forget the name but they said it was fatal almost 100% of the time, and any testing would put him in more pain before he ultimately passed. We chose to have him put to sleep...

    Red, sore, painful rectum?

    I will have to phone a vet to see what they say. But the past 2 days I have been using moist baby wipes (with aloe and vitamin E) and the redness has gone down by half, and he doesn't seem as much in pain. Do you think I should continue doing this?

    Cats and bleach scent

    I recently did a load of whites and used bleach on them.. Ever since I brought them to my room, my cat has gone absolutely nuts, smelling it, rubbing on it, attacking the fabric.

    Abandoned newborn possible health issues? HELP.

    I don't trust myself to not mess up. If it died because of fluid in the lungs I would never forgive myself. I use the bottle because I am more comfortable with it.
