    Aggressive playing?

    Lethargic, vomiting, not eating.. HELP.

    This morning when I woke up I noticed that my almost six month old kitten had vomited twice. Although I probably should have, I didn't worry about it and went to work. A couple hours later while on my lunch break I drove home to check on him and discovered he had vomited about 10 more times and...

    New kitten seems to be drinking lots of water

    Yesterday evening I adopted a 4 month old kitten from a local TNR program. He is a sweetheart and seems to be doing well. He's had his shots (just needs one more booster) and will be going in to be neutered in about a month. (Neuter was included in his adoption fee) He seems to be eating fine...

    Should I get my kitten a companion?

    Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this - I wasn't sure where I put it. I recently moved out of my parents house and into an apartment with my 5 month old kitten, Boone. Boone is my shadow. I'm having a very rough time adjusting to living on my own in a city away from my family and...

    How can I train my kitten to stay off the counter?

    My kitten is just about five months old and we have just moved into a new apartment. When he was with me at my parents house he was fine - no jumping up on the counters. But I can't keep him off of them at my apartment! I wouldn't have a problem with it, but my boyfriend does not like it and he...

    Boone and I went to bed around 11 last night and he was fine. When I woke up today around 5:30am to get ready for work I put some soft food out for him and noticed when he came to eat he was limping. He's really favoring one of his front legs. (Not putting any weight on it at all) I had to...

    Help, soft paw mishap

    Just a few minutes ago I was trying to reapply some soft paws that had fallen off onto my kitten. This is usually a two person job but since I only needed to reapply a couple I thought I could handle it. Boone struggled so much that I lost hold of him as I was trying to put one on. It came off...

    When to neuter?

    I'd like to hear different opinions on when the best age to neuter is. Boone is only 7 weeks old so I'm obviously not in a rush, just curious! I called a few vets in my area and they all said about the same thing, that they recommended kittens be at least 5-6 months before neutering. That's...
