Does anyone have a cat that feels "dense"? I have a petite 2 year old female that weighs about 8 pounds. She feels like a feather when I pick her up. Then I have a 7 mo old male who feels like a sack of rocks. He's about the same size and weight as my female, just a hair taller. Just curious why...
We've always been a 2 cat household but a little kitten is sparking our interest. We live in a 1000 square foot home now but we are currently house hunting and will buy something around 1400. We have 3 litter boxes now and there's no issue with paying for extra food or vet bills.
Just...
Kitty was neutered today and when I went to pick him up I expected him to be out of it. Well he was meowing all the way home. He leaped out of the carrier when I got home and it seriously seems like he never had surgery. He has of course; his jewels are now shriveled 128563
I brought him home at...
Just curious is anyone would switch vets at the same practice. I've been going to one for a few years who's been fine but when I took my cat in for an emergency eye thing I saw the on-call vet who I thought was excellent. She was so thorough and was very nice to my cat. I feel bad if I ask the...
This is Griffin and he's almost 4 months old. I've never had a cat who has such long toes and I guess you could say, knobby knuckles. Here are a few pics. I had a huge cat before with huge paws but his were round. Never had a long toed kitty before! Does this mean anything?
My vet sent me home a syringe of Stongid T for my 12 week old kitten. I didn't bring a stool sample so I'm bringing that in tomorrow but she told me to dose him after I collect the poo anyway.
I asked if I can put it on his wet food but she said the best bet is to try giving him the syringe...
Meet ????? We just adopted this adorable lynx point and I would love some name ideas for the little guy. Here's a few pics. He's sweet but also full of P & V (pi** and vinegar)!
He already loves the fresh warm laundry!
My wonderful 15 yr old Siamese mix died just a week ago and the house feels so different now. He was such a laid back dude and I swear had real fatherly love towards my 1.5 yr old kitty. We are all greiving the loss but know we have so much more love to give another cat that we will adopt again...
Smokie passed away last night. He was having troubles breathing so we took him to the vet who sent him to the emergency clinic because they have an O2 chamber. After X-rays they found major fluid around his heart and lungs and a mass in his abdomen. The vet said she could drain his chest but the...
My 15 year old cat seems to be breathing harder than usual. I timed it at 40 breathes a minute when he was sleeping. When he's breathing out it seems hard, I can see his chest move more than normal and I can hear it a bit. He's going to the vet in 5 hours. He's eating fine but seems to sleep...
About a month ago a cute little black cat started visiting us. It's probably about 6 months old and super friendly. I thought about adopting it but a few days later it shows up with a collor and a bell. I've asked a few neighbors and they've all had visits from it too but no one knows who it...
My cat is about 1.5 years old and I brush her teeth at least 3 times a week with CET. The vet said her teeth looked great at her least visit 2 months ago but she has really stinky breath. My 15 yr old cat doesn't have dragon breath like this one. Does anyone have any tips or products they use...
My cat gets treats from time to time and loves Friskies Party Mix. Well I decided to try Nature's Variety minis and she's acts so funny when she gets one. She shakes her head like she's killing prey and hides under the table to eat it. One time her tail even puffed up. It's pretty cute. Just...
I'm pretty excited about how this tooth brushing venture has progressed. I adopted Juniper 7 months ago and she's now just over a year old. I decided I would tackle her teeth right away to hopefully prevent vet cleanings in the future. I was nervous this would be a disaster and that I would be...
This morning my boyfriend told me our cat Juniper caught and tortured a mouse last night in our 3 season porch. He told me this AFTER she just gave me her good morning kisses. Eew.
My cat is roughly 1 year old and we've had her about 7 months now. She's been your typical cat up until last week. I wouldn't say there is cause for alarm, more of just a curiosity at this point, but do cats sense autumn?
She seems nervous when I'm standing over her and likes to sit under the...
Smokie is 14 and walks a little stiff. A few months ago my new kitten was smelling his leg really strangely. I looked and there was an old scab and his skin was red. His leg also seemed thicker than the other. I took him to the vet and he couldn't figure it out. He said his leg looked bruised...
