Hello all. I have been caring for a litter of 6 kittens. I have been socializing them and caring for them for several weeks. A few days ago I lost one of the male kittens. It could of been fading kitten syndrome but I am unsure. Today checking on the kittens, 4 of them are all lethargic, have...
A letter for Xena.
It is 1:50am and I am in an emotional hurricane. See, I am faced with a painful decision that is leaving me breathless. You are to be put to sleep in just 8 hours. A huge part of me wants you to die naturally instead of me being the one to end your life. The other part of me...
Hi ! So this little cutie showed up on our porch and my husband and I fell in love with him (hopefully) and decided to keep him. He makes cat number 5. We already have 3 females and 1 male so I am hoping he is a male. We decided to name him RANDOM because he just randomly showed up. I hope this...
I just adore these two sisters and wanted to show them off ! Sassy is on the left and Tinkerbell or just Tink is on the right. I brought these two girls home on September 22 when I found out they were hanging around my job. At first I had only planned on bringing one home since I already had...
My father recently had to go into the hospital to get a hip replacement. His cat Jasper was a gift from me a few years ago because I wanted my dad to have companionship. Jasper has always been a one person cat. He only allows my dad to touch him, sleep with him, play with him etc. Jasper hides...
I just wanted to see if anyone else experienced this with their fur baby. I was grooming my baby Xena when I noticed that she has what feels like a soft tissue mass near her anus. It is round and feels like it could be the size of a chic pea. I was squeezing it a little bit and Xena never...
Xena, my female orange and white tabby has an interesting habit that I thought I would share. Hopefully, after reading this you will add to the thread with other quirky habits your cat has.
So... Xena absolutely positively cannot stand being picked up. She hates it and fights to be put down...
I am very interested in hearing/reading stories on the different ways cats are spoiled !
I'll go first... Frankie my big baby loves to lay on me. I spoil him often with a lot of rubs and let him stay on my lap even when my bladder tells me it is time for him to move !!!! He is just so...
I am not sure what is going on with my boy Frankie. I recently moved another cat named Xena into my home. They both are fixed. Anyhow, for the most part they get along perfectly. They cuddle, groom each other, share food, and play together. However, I really don't know if Frankie is playing with...
Greetings all !!!! I wanted to get some opinions and insight from my fellow cat lovers about the possibility of my cat being incontinent. I very recently adopted (she adopted me first) a tailless tabby cat that was living out doors. She is a very sweet and gentle cat that is still in recovery...
Close to a year ago I noticed a stray cat living underneath the cars in the parking lot of my apartment complex. And this cat was a cutie being a little orange and white tabby without a tail. I would see her often but she always ran away if she was approached. But I continued everyday trying to...
All of a sudden my very pregnant stray cat " Oscar " is very affectionate. As she was allowing me to rub her swollen belly I noticed that there is something pink protruding from her vagina. Is this the beginning of labor????
I will try to keep this short and to the point. I have been feeding a feral female that I named Oscar ( thought she was a he ) for close to a year now. And I have not been successful in trapping her. Originally she was living underneath the cars in the parking lot of my development until I...
About 3 hours ago I treated my boy Frankie with Profender, a topical de wormer prescribed by the vet. Frankie's stool sample came back positive for round worms. All I want to know is how soon will he start expelling the worms? This is my first time doing this and I don't know when he will start...
Hi guys, it was suggested that I come over here to ask questions. I have been caring for a stray cat that I named Oscar. I originally thought that SHE was a HE, because she is an orange tabby. Anyhow, she seems like she was abandoned because she knows what human kindness is. I had the...
Good morning. To get right to the point. For a few weeks now I have been feeding a stray cat (orange tabby) because he/she needs very much to have someone care for it. And that someone is me. I guess the cat now knows that I am the one providing food so it actually comes close enough for me to...
Frankie loves looking out of the window for hours at a time. And it so normal for him to meow at things that only he can see. However, last night he was meowing in a way I never heard before and meowing with more urgency so I got up to see what was setting him off. Well, on the other side of the...
