    Cat Panting

    Thought I’d update (after a very long time!) in case anyone had any similar issues with their kitties. The vets weren’t able to detect a heart murmur past age 2-3, and he hasn’t panted since, other than car rides which he is not a fan of. Knock on wood!!!

    Cat won't stop attacking laptop charger!

    Hi all,  sorry just for clarification, when I said charger, I meant the whole thing - the actual charger and the cord.  He attacks the whole thing but tries to bite the cord especially and grabs it with his claws. Spraying the bitter apple on a cotton pad and wiping it onto the cord would have...

    Good Kitten Nutrition?

    For dry food, my vet advised me to free feed at that age.   For wet food, I agree that the 3x/day feeding schedule you're thinking about sounds good.

    Cat won't stop attacking laptop charger!

    My cat attacks my laptop charger whenever I'm working on my laptop.  Not just plays with it..but full-on attacks it.  Squiggles his butt and pounces on it from across the room and won't stop biting it.  This concerns me for two reasons: first, his safety (I don't want him to get shocked or burn...

    My Cat From Hell TV show and wth happened to Animal Planet?!

    It actually had the opposite effect on me.  I've always been a bit afraid of cats and did think that they were somehow always just waiting to pounce on and scratch humans.  After watching this show for a few months, I saw that you could actually understand their body language and how to deal...

    Kitten weight chart... How big will he get?

    I'm pretty sure that my kitty was about 3.5 pounds, if not 4, when I adopted him at 11 weeks.  He's 12 pounds now at 11 months!

    Cat Panting

    Hi all.  Thanks for the posts. We finished the prednisolone, antibiotics, and the dewormer.  He seemed to get a lot better on the antibiotic - panting very rarely and respiratory rate while at rest went back to normal.  However, he finished the antibiotic after a week, and then all the symptoms...

    Cat Panting

    An update on my kitty: He had had two instances of coughing before starting the meds. We saw a respiratory specialist who thought that the coughing and breathing fast were two separate issues and that the coughing was indicative of asthma and was treated well by the prednisolone. The resp...

    Cat Panting

    We've discussed possibly doing an echocardiogram, but the vets don't seem to think it's a heart issue because his heart looked and sounded normal plus he did seem to respond to the prednisolone a bit. Katluver, what was the result with your cat?

    Cat Panting

    Wondering if anyone has had similar experiences with their cats and if they received a diagnosis.. My cat has started panting (open mouth breathing with bright pink tongue hanging out) occasionally.  Usually after a lot of running but sometimes during rest.  He also has developed a VERY fast...
