    Why the dirty nose?

    Eww kitty boogers! I wonder why he never had this problem before, and now he does? None of my other cats have this issue. He's never going to be a model with that dirty little nose! (He's not trying to be a model, I just tell him these things when he gets dirty or scratched by the other cats)

    My cat, Cosmo Nova has a dirty nose. ALL the time! It drives me crazy! No sooner then I clean it, I turn around and it's dirty again. He's 8 years old and this problem only arose recently. He did test positive for Mycoplasma about 4 years ago, but when I did another Feline viral PCR test a few...

    Tortitude? - Tortoiseshell Cats

    My cat Gigi Bella has tortitude, but she is all black. Her momma was a tortie and when Gigi was a baby you could see patches of color in her fur when she was in the sun. My husband jokes that she is really a dark tortie (as opposed to muted or dilute) and not actually a true black cat. She has...

    Periodically limp skinny kitten~ please help

    I do not know how to tube feed a kitten. I have only ever tube fed a snake. I'm very sorry to say that she passed just after 11pm last night. :( I just held her and told her how much she meant to me. I wanted her to know someone on this earth cared for her. I feel horribly guilty as I do every...

    Periodically limp skinny kitten~ please help

    I got her some formula at the store today, but unfortunately have only been able to get about 20mls of formula in her total today. I made a homemade electrolyte solution and used that to mix her formula at her last feeding. I was only able to get 3mls in her at that time before she refused to...

    Thank you for your input. It is much appreciated. Cheez-it seems to not be so well :( I pick up a fluid set for her and gave her some LRS SQ. I've been trying to force her to eat as much as I can, but I fear it's not enough. I was so happy she had a solid bowl movement yesterday morning, but...

    Thanks, guys! I didn't think of putting it in that forum. Should I make a new thread there, or wait for the mod to move it? Cheez-it seems ok this morning after having another episode last night.

    Cat poops on the floor, and I`m going insane!

    Have you tried different cat litters? Declawing makes a cats paws more sensitive and the litter you are using may hurt him to stand in while he tries to get his fluffy tush into position. I would maybe buy a small bag of each litter and some of those small cheap litter boxes and line them up and...
