okay so i got swamped at work and was totally unable to post his update here.
But a day before his vet visit Leo started doing something that looked like vomiting but a bit different. So i video tapped him and took him to the vet the next morning and they told me it was a cough.
They checked him...
Okay random update.. He's out from under the bed. The twitching is totally absent. He has eaten his kibble and licked clean his wet food bowl as well. And has taken at least 10 rounds around the house
I'm still being pretty cautious with him.and will take him to the vet regardless.
I absolutely agree with you. I know i'm a slightly paranoid fur mom but i take no chances with my baby and most of the times my gut feelings have been pretty accurate. I just panicked and just wanted help and this forum has helped me every time I've been in a fix about something.
Cat care is not...
As far as tripping over him goes there was no stepping on him. He just got tangled in my legs and i fell. He actually plays catch me at night with me a lot so that's what he was doing. I can sense now if he's being needy cuz of not feeling good since we've been through some times so i can assure...
Okay so today i came home to find my Leo (3year old male, neutered) behaving quite strangely.
He greeted my as usual and his food bowl told me he had eaten food.
But after a while i noticed that when i refilled his bowl he wasnt eating. Even his wet food that he wolfs down on normal days nor his...
Well.. he isnt that bony but i guess in my own paranoid mom eyes i see him that way. His hip and spine dont protrude likes he's just bones but they are more on the lean side.
Also he's been a super active cat since the day we got him. He rests and naps fine but for most of his awake time he runs...
So a friend of mine was asking me about cat weights since she got her first kitten so i checked up on my Leo's weight as well. He's 3yrs old now but for the last year and a half he's stuck at around 11lbs and i checked on those online info-graphics that he should be around 20lbs according to his...
Thank you soo much @tabbytom and @stephanietx ! I stayed up the whole night with him. He vomited once but has eaten small amounts of food thrice since then. The wound site is also fine. There's not been any bad development and he's been up and running since morning. He's always been quite an...
So I just got my male cat neutered today. We picked him up from the clinic fine but he got one lick at his wound. On the way back home he kept squirming and I had to hold him in my lap. When i reached home i noticed slight blood stains on my clothes. I checked his wounds and he seemed to have...
ok so i was finally able to take him to the vet and thankfully it's nothing too serious.
they took his blood tests and turns out he has parasitic worm infestation. they administered two injections and gave him an oral medicine as well.. which he spit out lol so i came home and was able to give...
it's gonna be tough though. i've tried feeding him chicken and meat for a long while but nothing seems to work.
he really has a liking for the crunchy dry kibble since he was a kitten. thankfully i've always kept his water intake in check.
he doesnt even eat canned food. i have to mix it with...
appointment's hopefully tomorrow or day after. there's a mess of situations where i live so i'm trying to get him there asap. i hope it's not something too serious !
he is 2 year old. ofcourse i didnt give him any meds.
actually he ran away for 3 days a while back and had a minor surgery to...
So i own a 2 yr old shorthair tuxedo cat and for past couple of weeks i've noticed some changes in him.
he seems to have thinned a lot. his average weight used to be 5kg but i checked yesterday and he's approximately 4kg now
he's also been very lazy, sleeps a looooot for almost the whole...
well i thought of neutering.... but isn't that painful? especially cuz he's a lot older now..
tbh i feel like i've done bad by him,. but actually i don't want to opt for that option.
i know it's better but it feels like i'd be doing something wrong to him
okay my Leo is almost 2 years old now but this is the first time he is exhibiting such behavior.
He's yowling like crazy the whole night and only quiets when i take him outside for a while.
I get that he is in heat but I don't know what to do.
I cant let him outdoors as I live in a dangerous...
I just panicked I guess.. I didn't know what to do but thanks for the advice. I'll be more careful in the future.
Ok noted but should I give him a bath? He isn't very dirty but my mom's been pushing me to bathe him. But I'm worried about the wounds that they might hurt or get worse.
Well there is bleeding.. In about 5 places and one more just appeared. Also i think they were ticks as these bruises ir wounds or whatever appeared the day after i yanked those insects off.
No i killed them by squishing them..they were roundish in shape,four legged and black in color sort of...
