My Dad, who lives an hour from me, has been taking care of a local stray cat for some years. He's about 10 years old and has already had a slew of problems. Just a few months ago he had two enormous, ruptured, basal cell tumors removed from his sides. He had some blunt trauma to his head when he...

Long time no see, so since my cat decided to cost me $702.00 today, I thought I should share. My kitten, Burdock, the former cryptorchid, is officially an honorary laborador retriever. He eats anything and everything, and I thought I'd been good about keeping non-edibles out of the way. But no...

I'm starting to worry that I will be unable to keep Mallorn. I've had him for a month and a half now, and have been doing all the suggested methods for introductions. Today was my second attempt at them meeting face to face... I had fancy feast on separate plates like before and the plates about...

Mallorn is trying to make me broke, I swear. He's now taken up, at random times, making a horrible bubbling/gurgling psuedo-purr as if the dry heaves weren't enough. Is this progressing asthma? Allergies? Should I get him scoped to see if he has a growing polyp? I'm definitely taking him into...

My kitten is... a little weird in all areas. He gained two lbs in one month, only lost his bottom baby canine teeth a week ago (still has the top baby canines), is 5 months old... and is a cryptorchid. In fact, we thought he was neutered when we first found him, because there was nothing there...

I brought him in to my work today to deal with his diarrhea which seems be due to the stress of moving and having to deal with Burdock, the bratty kitten. It doesn't help that he's incredibly nervous/neurotic to begin with. -_- But while he was there he did something that had been confusing me...

Here's a fun question: Is there anything I can do about the fact that my two adoptees.... stink when they go to the bathroom? Mallorn... hooowheee! He's been boarding at work since Friday and has been having quite the bout of soft... and oh so stinky stool. The vets put him on WD dry and wet...

My cat, Rowan, was only half spayed and this is something I've been worrying about for the year I've had her. While the surgeon took her ovaries, the uterus remains. Why he did this, no one knows. -_- Does having no ovaries decrease the risk of pyometra? Or should I schedule an appt. to get my...

Sadly, I have no pictures yet of my Mallorn, though you can be sure I'll inundate you with them soon enough. Instead, I present to you pictures of Rowan some 3 days after her giant surgery. She's now rather fat. >_> And Burdock, the homeless kitten who loves belly rubs and whines like...

New to these forums, but I can tell that I'm going to be able to learn lots of stuff. Makes me so happy. ^_^ My name is Megan. I'm in school to become a vet tech. Just getting the sciences (chem, micro biology) out of the way. I currently have two cats, and a homeless kitten. My first kitty...

In a week and a half or so, once I finish moving in, I am adopting a 2-year old half-abby from a local rescue group. Mallorn, as I've decided to call him, was previously an outdoor only cat, and was only castrated 3 weeks ago. Now, before he was altered he was spraying up the wazoo at the...
