    Cat pulls his fur out

    I've also been having the same problem with my cat. Many trips to the vets to rule lots of things out. Like yours its not fleas as he's an indoor cat and my vet seems to think he's allergic to something. Let me know how you get on with the change in food.

    Why is my cat more docile with a cone on?

    It's almost like he likes it on! He's been a lot more friendly and attention seeking when he wears it.  Has anyone else found this to be the case or is it my cat being strange?

    Collar Alternatives

    I''ve had a look as best I can and can't see anything obvious. I cleaned the area as much as he would let me, but wouldn't let me put a bandage on probably needs to keep it dry anyway. The vet was pretty much useless, they hardly looked at his paw so very reluctant to go back again. Any signs...

    Collar Alternatives

    I think so. We think he got something in his paw then tried to lick it out and kept on licking it to the point where it was making him sore.

    Collar Alternatives

    I was seeing if anyone out there has found any decent alternatives to a plastic collar? Our cat has a sore paw pad on his front right paw (which he keeps licking at) and we need to keep it clean. The vet gave him a plastic collar to wear which he obviously took off immediately. After a few...

    Beeping & "Chriping"?

    My cat likes to what we call "beep" or "chirp" whenever he walks into a room and sees us. The beeping is sort of a meow with his mouth closed and the chirping is more of a purr that ends in a meow. He sounds like R2-D2 when he's going for it. I'm a new cat owner so this might very well be...

    Sickly Cat?

    Thanks tulosai! It seems like he's been a bit more jumpy and aloof since the last time we went to the vets, almost like he's giving us the cold shoulder for taking him! The first time he had it, I read up on cystitis in cats so I'm a lot more prepared for it now then before. We give him wet...

    Sickly Cat?

    Me and my girlfriend moved into a new place at the end of January this year and at the beginning of March and after a lot of nagging on my girlfriends part, we decided to adopt a cat. I have had no experience with cats what so ever and have always been a dog person, but my girlfriend had grown...
