    Need litter advice for a 4-6 week old kitten

    I recently rescued a kitten that appeared to be abandoned and barely moving.  She was very malnourished and had infections in her eyes and lungs.  Now 5 days later, she's got a little belly, her coat has improved, her eyes are wide open, and her purr is strong.  I've been trying to work with her...

    Need to find a good home for a loving kitty

    I know that chances of finding a home for this little guy is slim, but it never hurts to try.  I'm trying to avoid taking him to a shelter or putting him outside.  So far I have had no success in finding this sweet cat a loving home. Pepper showed up on our back door last August with pretty...

    Need Help! My cat has FHS and I'm at a loss what to do now.

    It's been several months since I've been on the site.  My cat Taz I believe has Feline Hyperesthesia.  It started out mild in January of 2013 with just some growling and hissing.  At the end of March, my cousin went into premature labor and we ended up watching their dog for a couple weeks while...

    Need Help getting meds in my cat

    My Taz was diagnosed with FHS and is currently taking Phenobarbitol and Gabapentin.  At first, I didn't have any problems geting his meds in him.  He would take his Pheno in a pill pocket and the Gaba was mixed with his wet food.  Now, he doesn't like the pill pockets so I have to squish it with...

    Help! I'm at a loss and have run out of ideas on how to help my kitty.

    I’m at a loss and don’t know what else to do or try.  I took Taz to the vet last Saturday and they examined him.  I showed the vet the video I took and he was just as baffled as I was.  No one seems to have ever seen a cat behave that way.  When I asked about FHS, the vet had no clue what I was...

    Loose Stool?

    I started my 1 year old Taz on a wet food only diet a couple days ago.  I noticed this morning his stool was pretty loose.  Is this a result of the diet change?  Is this normal?  If so, how long will it last? Taz Mom

    Looking for natural hairball remedy

    I was told that Petromalt is not the preferred hairball remedy for people on this site.  One suggested to use Pure Egg Yolk Lecithin.  If this is a good alternative to Petromalt, how often do I give it to my cats?  Is it once a day, once a week/month, etc?  Is there another alternative to...

    Help! Fleas - To flea dip or not to flea dip, that is the question

    I have a vet appointment for my little Taz man to rule out some recent behavioral issues.  At first I thought it might be FHS, but now I'm thinking it could just be fleas.  We dogsat my aunt's dog a couple weeks ago and I'm thinking she brought fleas into our house.  I didn't notice them before...

    Help with possible FHS

    Hello All, I've been reading some other threads regarding FHS and I'm wondering if my little Taz man has it.  My mom noticed the change in his behavior a little over a month ago.  It's gotten worse in the last couple weeks to where I've noticed it myself.  At first it was just some mild...

    Hello To All!

    Hello Everyone, I am a fairly new mom to an all black cat I lovingly named Taz.  He was a rescue in our church parking lot at only 4 weeks old.  I named him Taz after the Tazmanian Devil since he was zipping through the room like a tornado when he was a kitten.  He has been the absolute love of...

    Fairly new mom needs help finding good food

    Hi All! My cat Taz turned a year old April 15.  I've had him since he was about 4 weeks old as a rescue in our church parking lot.  I bottle fed him at first with KMR until he was about 6 weeks or so.  I started him on Royal Canin baby cat wet food, and he seemed to really like that, so I stuck...
