    Hi all, My cat was confined to one, tiled bathroom for two weeks post-PU surgery. We have him in there with a box and removed all the towels, rug, etc. I still feel the the bathroom smells like cat urine. Any tips for really getting the scent out?

    Cat W Urinary Obstruction Re-obstructed Immediately After Coming Home.

    Hi all, I'm looking for advice/input from anyone who has gone through a similar situation. Our 2.5 year old male cat just spent two nights in the hospital due to urinary obstruction.

    Letting Indoor Cats Outside

    Hi all, I wanted to get some feedback from experienced cat owners. We have two indoor cats that are both two years old. We adopted them as 8-10 week old kittens so they've spent all their lives indoors. We live in an apartment and they have access to our balcony so they spend time out there...

    Stray kitten in home with healthy resident cats

    Hi everyone, My husband found a stray kitten on a freeway on ramp yesterday. The kitten was obviously sick (one of its eyes was crusted shut and the other had a lot of discharge) and there didn't appear to be any mother in sight so he took it with him. We brought it to our nearest shelter and...

    Sometimes it seems like 7 month old cat doesn't realize she's pooping. Help!

    Hi all - back again with another yet health question! These cats are keeping us busy! Our seven month old cat keeps having poop related accidents - she will frequently drop a small piece on her way in to or out of the litter box but on a couple of occasions we've found them further away from...

    Frothy pee outside box - how concerned should I be?

    This morning I found a puddle of pee a few steps away from the litter box that had a layer of foam or froth on top. The urine was a normal shade of yellow. I have two kittens (7 months, female and 5 months, male) and I'm not totally sure which one did it but I think it was the female cat because...

    Should I re-introduce my resident and new kitten (play escalates on a daily basis)?

    I've posted here a few times about my two kittens, Pia (resident) and Oliver (new). Pia is now about 6.5 months and Oliver is 4 months. Both were adopted at 10 weeks. We had Pia for about two and a half months on her own and we've now had both kittens for two months. I'm a bit worried about...

    vet advised to back off wet food for kittens w diarrhea, is this a good idea??

    I have two kittens - Pia, 6 months and Oliver, 4 months. About a month ago, we noticed that Oliver's third eyelids were protruding. At first we thought it was conjunctivitis since we had just treated Pia  for that but he didn't respond to the eye drops we'd used for her and we noticed his stool...

    Relationship between kittens seems to be getting worse, any tips for improving it?

    I posted here first about a month and a half ago when we were deciding whether or not to adopt a second kitten. We went ahead with the adoption and now have two kittens - a six month old female and a nearly four month old male. We had the female kitten for about two months on her own before...

    Aggressive older kitten (~5 months), scared younger kitten (~10 weeks), coming back from a bad intro

    I posted a week or so ago about adopting a second kitten as a companion to our current kitten (Pia, 19 weeks). We adopted Oliver (10 weeks) a week ago and, while still early on in a process that I know can take time, does not seem to be going well considering how young they both are. The rescue...

    Should I adopt a second?

    I know there are multiple threads like this, but we are really looking for as much input as possible! We currently have an adorable 4.5 month old, spayed kitten (avatar). She was 10.5 weeks when we adopted her so we've had her home for nearly two months now. At the shelter she was in the kennel...
