When we first got our cats they were eating friskies (or something like that). I left them on that food for a month before transitioning them over to different food. We tried Go!, Natural Balance, Blue and Natures Variety. They ate sooo much of it, probably more than the friskies. We were going...
One of our cats was diagnosed with crystals 2 weeks ago. For a month he has been peeing outside of the litter box. We took him in right away but the vet didn't find anything wrong the first visit. The second visit (2 weeks ago) he was diagnosed with crystals (no infections) and given Urinary SO...
We took one of our cats to the vet today because he was peeing often and had blood in his urine. The vet said he had some crystals in his urine. He put him on antibiotics and special food. He says he will be on the food longterm. We had a cat with crystals before and he was only on special food...
We have a (almost) 2 year old male cat, named Kirk, who has been peeing outside of his litter boxes. We also have two other cats (2 years old, male & female). Everyone is spayed/neutered, not declawed.
A couple months ago Kirk got locked accidentally in the babies room and peed in the crib...
We have 3 cats. A female (15 months) and two males (15 months and 16 months). They have been together since they were 8 and 12 weeks old and have always gotten along great. They are all spayed and neutered and we've never had any behavioural problems.
Today our older male was on top of his cat...
We are expecting a baby in just 5 weeks. We're moving this weekend into a new house and I've been setting up some of the baby toys so that we aren't taking as many boxes and things with us. Long story short, the cats LOVE the baby toys. They chew on them and bat at them. I expected them to be...
My 3 cats eat dry and canned. Their main portion is canned, but they have dry available 24/7 for snacking. I wasn't paying attention and grabbed the wrong dry food today (same brand my dogs get) and now they won't eat it. It's very similar, just a different style (Now instead of Go). Two of them...
We're expecting a baby in October and of course our cats aren't going anywhere. But we need to have a method of keeping them out of the crib and other baby things (open bins, swing, bouncer, etc.). We have three cats, two DLH and a DSH. They are 11 and 12 months old. They are great cats, but...
One of our cats (TJ, maine coon) is a food hog. He is a bit chubby (on a diet now) and eats a lot compared to the others. When we are cooking he jumps onto the counters and takes or licks whatever we have. For example, yesterday I left the butter open and he was eating that. Today he was trying...
Our DSH cat has an odd behaviour. There is nothing wrong it, but it just seems odd. If we are upstairs, he stays downstairs and rarely comes up. If we are downstairs, he stays upstairs and rarely comes down. It's like he's very anti-social. But everyday between 7:50PM and 8:10PM he comes and...
Our Maine Coon wheezes a lot, while awake and snore heavily while sleeping. I'd say he's wheezing 50% of the time. You can hear him across the room. We've had him to three vets (including a feline only clinic that is supposed to be very good) and they all say his lungs sound fine. He is 9 months...
I have 3 kittens who are on a high quality kitten food. They are 8 and 7 months old. The boys are both 14 lbs and the girl is about 6 lbs.
I gave them adult kibble before and all life stages, but they ate A LOT more of it - at least double. Together they are eating 3 cups a day. With the two...
I have two kittens and I'm wondering what their colours are and maybe a breed? I know most cats are DSH/DLH. They are 6 months and from the same litter.
The female, Penelope/Penny. She has a fluffy tail and a very soft coat, but thin. At her 6 month weigh in she was 5lbs. She is extremely...
Our 3 kittens went in on Thursday December 19th to be spayed and neutered. The two boys are doing fine, however the female has licked her wound open. The surgical opening was maybe 1" long, and the whole thing is open. She had her cone off for just a few minutes so she could eat. Right now it...
I assume it depends on the individual cat, their age and any health issues.
Our kittens are 6 and 7 months old. They are getting spayed and neutered tomorrow morning and the vet instructed us to keep them in their cat carriers for 24 hours following the surgeries. I've never done this before...
I took in two 8 week old kittens and I'm having some trouble litter training them. I'm not sure how high or low my expectations should be because litter training Kirk was a breeze. We brought Kirk home at 8 weeks old, showed him the litter box once (which was in the basement and we were always...
Recently I took in two 8 week old kittens and my 13 week old kitten, Kirk, is playing too rough with them (I think). He pins them down and sort of chews on them the kittens, Tojo and Penny, make noises that clearly show they aren't having fun, put their ears back and hiss. Kirk usually doesn't...
Right now I have a male kitten but may be getting 1 or 2 more kittens. I'm moving into an apartment and the litter box is going to be going in the bathroom. I want a litter that has good odour control and is healthy for the kittens. Kirk won't use Yesterday's News so that's out. Right now he is...
On Sunday we are moving 2 hours away. Kirk does amazing in the car. He sleeps in his carries the entire time, so I'm not worried about the travelling part too much. But he did get car sick last time. It will be a bit more stressful in the car because there is going to be a dog, 15 rats, Kirk and...
I'm considering adopting these two kittens from the shelter and I'm wondering what they could be, not that it really matters. Sorry I only have one picture of each of them
