above ribcage on right side, so easy to get to?

OK, So my cat Zorro is being treated for an abscess and has a drain in, All is going well with the recovery. He has to wear an e-collar for the next 2 days until the drain comes out. I have run into a dilemma, the vet said its fine for him to be as mobile as he wants INSIDE, what she didn't...

Thanks for all that great info! i will definitely look into those. I should have been more clear, giving him up is only a last resort if i find that he is in danger of becoming too depressed and i would only give him up to someone i know that would look after him properly, no shelters.. I will...

So my 2 year old cat and i moved at the start of this year into a small, one bedroom apartment with a small balcony.  Before this i was living with relatives and zorro was an outdoor cat that could come inside as he pleased, so 50/50 inside/outside  For the past 5 months at the new place he was...

i would but my cat and bandages really REALLY don't agree, it would be torn off within 5 minutes. When he was younger and sliced one of his main paw pads down the middle, yea it was bad, and the vet put 3 layers of those stretchy bandages that are near impossible to get off, he actually started...

I did try to buy it once when the vet was closed, when the guy asked what was wrong with my fish I didn't want to lie and explained that the vet was closed and I needed them for my cat, his reply was " no don't sell em " although I got the feeling he just didn't want to sell them to me as they...

Usually the cheap clay, dusty gravel like stuff. But I'm going to replace it with the softer pellets made from recycled paper. One thing that pees me off about vets is that to get some anti biotics for preventative measure, I have to go through the hassle of taking my cat in. I'm 95% sure from...

I think I will just confine him to inside, I live in a small one bedroom apartment and he hates being stuck inside and using the litter tray, but he will just have to suck it up for the sake of not getting an infection, not that he understands that lol. My floors are lino and smooth so it...

Ok so Zorro gets cuts on his paws from time to time from being an outdoor cat, they are usually small and when i take him to the vet for them all they usually do is clean it up with Chlorhexidine and charge me allot of money. Plus my cat absolutely hates being in moving cars and a trip to the...

Sorry, its frontline plus. I don't think he's having a reaction cause he's only vomited the once, but once is enough to scare the crap outa me. But ill tell you one thing, capstar(the short term oral treatment) is unbelievable, 2 weeks after his last application of frontline, he had fleas, not...

This happens every time: I put zorro up on my table Layout 20 or so of his favourite treats He happily eats them, puts his head down. I try to get a good part in his fur, but he has really short fur. I finally get a part, touch the plastic vial against his skin, squeeze it. Watch the...

If some of it does get on the hair, which just happened to me, doesn't it eventually work it's way around the cat anyway?

Over the past couple of days something has appeared on my cats bottom lip im thinking it maybe a kind of mouth ulcer or Granuloma, i'm not 100% sure but i don't remember his lip being different colours its always been black. But this slightly inflamed flesh coloured area has appeared just below...

cheers for the reply's guys, much appreciated. ok now the balcony will be 100% off limits :) p.S Any tips on helping him settle into a "100% indoor life", from a "come and go as you please life"?:)  oh and another thing, atleast now i wont have to worry all the time when he's away, that he's...
