River went to the vet today because she had a limp, it turned out one of her toes/claws was abscessed.  The vet said she either snagged it, or it was from a claw trim. I trim my cats' nails about once a month, and the big reason I trim hers is she does tend to snag them (she has a...

I'm currently feeding 3xs a day (most days, sometimes I fall asleep early or have to be out all day and she only gets two meals) but I want to cut it down to twice.  I'm wondering at what point I can do that?  The kitten is a little small, 4.5 months and 3.5 lbs.  But she's proportional, she's a...

My kitten has been solely on wet food to this point, but she eating so much I need to start adding dry.  Or win the lotto. Heh.  My plan is to sprinkle it over her wet food (my adult cats get fed wet only for now, I wouldn't be able to sit it out since they'd just scarf it).  I'd like something...

It's looking like River has mild Cerebral Hypoplasia (or something similar). I want to get some sort of carpeted cat tree to encourage climbing and (low) jumps. She's about 3 months and at this point can't jump up, has difficulty landing when jumping from about one foot off the ground, and has...

So kitten is about 12 weeks and only 1 lb, 12 ounces (she was only 4.5 ounces at about 3 weeks). My vet recommends waiting until 4 lbs to spay, but I know other vets will spay at 2 or 3 lbs. She eats as much or more than my 10 and 15 lb adult cats, she gets fed as much as she wants 4 times a...

River's about 10 weeks, and a total klutz. She only lands on her feet about a third of the time. Usually she just falls on her head or does a full flip onto her back. She finally figured out how to climb onto furniture last week.

My 8 week old kitten doesn't drink straight water. She will play with it, but won't drink. When she's stuck her head in it she gets her nose wet then wants nothing to do with it. She gets only wet food, which I add KMR to and if I heat it up I add some extra water. She gets fed 4-5 times a...

Hi! I have three cats currently (RIP Lucky, Cheetah, Suzy, and Snicklefritz) This is Moe, he is 7 years old and enjoys playing milk ring fetch, terrifying children, and snuggling. My cousin took him from a friend as a kitten and gave him to me when she grew bored of him at about 16 weeks...

Is he considered ticked?

I'm starting an elimination diet for my cat. He's allergic to something, I suspect it's the corn in his dry food. I was wondering, if eliminating corn doesn't work, what are the next foods to consider? Do cats develop allergies to dust, etc? I'd rather not have him allergy tested, since...

Hi, I currently have three cats. Male age 8, male age 4, and female kitten (7 weeks, a neighbor found her at about 2 weeks and I've been hand raising her since). I'm switching them to an all canned diet (well, aside from some higher quality dry in their puzzle toys), but I can only spend about...
