Ritz and Peaches08, thank you so much for your response. I am a bit reluctant about raw feeding because I'm not sure about the safety of our meat and fish here, bacteria-wise (maybe if I find a reliable source, I can do that). Right now I'm thinking about cooking them (or maybe partially cooked...

Hi everyone. Need some advice here. I have a 6-year old female cat named Aloof who weighs almost 10lbs. She has a big (noticeably protruding) stomach, but the vet did not find any problem when they conducted a blood test, except that she was anemic (she's taking medication for that now). So...

Good news! Aloof finally peed and pooped, although outside. I used moist toilet paper, and aside from some swishing of her tail, she allowed me to do it. Her vet also suggested that I can allow her to do her thing outside as long as I'm around. So after she ate, she went straight to the mini...

Aloof is doing well. Some parts of the stitched wound are healing well, but there's one area that is moist and seems to have some pus. I asked the vet about it and she recommended that I clean the wound with hydrogen peroxide first before applying betadine. She also prescribed a liquid...

Thank you for advice, Ritz! I'll try and see if the dirt/leaves trick will work with her, and if not I'll find the product that you mentioned. She has no problem eating, except she doesn't seem to like dry food and would only eat the wet food that I feed them in the morning and evening. She has...

Yay! Thank you Anne! :)

So I came home today to find the rolled towel taken off Aloof's neck. I rewrapped it around her neck, but she was able to remove it again (her nails got stuck on it). I tried the ecollar once again, but she didn't like it and didn't stop until she was able to take it off as well. I'm thinking...

Thank you, Siamese Mommy! I am just thankful that Aloof is doing well. By the way, this was how she looked this morning before I left for work. I will still see if the towel will stay firm and keep her from reaching her tummy since she didn't seem to like the ecollar.

Thank you, Ritz and MargeCat! I'm glad to be here. :) I have received several suggestions, tips, and advice regarding my concern with Aloof. Thanks a lot! Regarding playing with Small, I do play with her in front of Aloof, and I was always hoping Aloof would join in (though apparently, that may...

Hi Ritz, StefanZ, and Siamese Mommy! Thank you so much for all your advice. Aloof is now home and recuperating. I don’t have a crate at the moment. Space is a bit of an issue… But before I left home for work this morning, I cleaned our bathroom, removed everything in there, wiped it dry, placed...

Here is my other post about Aloof, by the way: http://www.thecatsite.com/t/281832/post-cs-care-for-a-semi-feral-cat Will appreciate any of your suggestions. Thanks! :)

Hi everyone! I'm a new human to two adopted former stray female cats - Aloof (the mom) and Small (the kitten), so named because of their personality. Aloof was a snobbish cat who used to roam around our apartment. I used to feed her by the door and she would eat, until later on she would get...

Hi everyone! I have adopted a female semi-feral cat who's been roaming around our apartment compound. We named her Aloof because that was her personality... Would always attempt to scratch each time we approach to touch her. Over time, she got A BIT tamed. She would allow us to touch her, but...
