I'm driving down to NY with my cats from Canada and spending a month there. From the websites I've looked at I don't really have to do anything before I go. I do have rabies vaccinations etc for both of them to show when I return. Is there something that I'm missing? Has anyone brought their...

My cats heard a cat fight outside last night and have been terrified ever since. They hid under the bed for the rest of the night, and then didn't try and wake me up in the morning for food. I had to coax them to come out and eat. Guinness finally relaxed enough to eat but Nepheline only ate...

Guinness is feeling much better these days! Thanks for everybodies help! For those of you who don't know Guinness had diarrhea for months and I could only get it under control with Flagyl. Then he got a really bad cold and had to be on anti-biotics and because of that had horrible bloody...

I am looking to get an automatic feeder for my two cats. The one that looks good is the Petmate Le Bistro electronic portion control automatic feeder. It gives portions as small as a quarter of a cup. Has anyone used it or something like it that you could recommend? I just want to use it for...

This is yet another diarrhea question. My poor 6 month old kitten Guinness has had chronic diarrhea for most of his life. It got really bad recently because he was on antibiotics for an URI. He has been on Flagyl for a while and is continuing with that for 4 more days. The food the vet...

My 6 month old kitten Guinness has a URI and along with that an eye infection. I took him to the vet last night and he also has a bit of a fever. I'm having a hard time getting him to eat. He is not touching his regular food and is very lethargic. He has been eating Wysong cat treats and some...

My 6 month old kitten Guinness eats the litter everytime I put a bit more in to fill what has been removed. I use Worlds Best, which is a clumping corn litter. The nice corn smell attracts him I guess. After the fresh corn smell is gone he doesn't do it anymore. So I'm not bothered about him...

My 6 month old male kitten has had loose stool forever. He has been extensively de-wormed and has been on anti-biotics twice for a high bacteria load in his stool. He finally got better and had some solid poo. I was so relieved. I have been feeding him Innova Evo for the last part of the...

My 5 month old kitten has coccidia. It was diagnosed with a fecal test. He never had terrible diarrhea but had loose stool a couple times a day. He has been on S-125 tablets for 15 days and still has loose stool! The first half of his poo is solid and normal and the last half is not solid...

I am feeding my cats a quarter can of this each as a treat every day and was wondering if the ingredient list is ok. chicken, chicken broth, chicken liver, chicken by-products, ocean fish, brewers rice, egg product, guar gum, salt, potassium chloride, brewers dried yeast, choline chloride...

I am currently giving my 5 month old kitten S125 for coccidia. Does anyone know if this is the same as Albon? I live in Canada and we don't seem to have Albon.

My 5 month old kitten has had loose stool for a while now. Not diarhhea but loose. I took in a stool sample and it was tested positive for coccidia. I will begin treatment tonight. Will he fully recover from this with no side-effects? I have read on the site that some people had a really...

My new kitten got into my other cats food and has had diarrhea for a week now. Well, really it is just soft poo and he only goes once or twice a day. So it is not out of control. I have been making sure that he only gets his kitten food but the loose stool doesn't seem to be getting better...

My 9 week old kitten tries to lick/bite my earlobes while I am sleeping. I push him away but he repeatedly comes back. He is purring when he does this. I've tried putting lemon perfume on my neck and ears but it doesn't bother him. I live in a bachelor apartment so I can't lock him out of my...

I have a 7 week old kitten that I have had for a week. When he is locked in the bathroom he uses the litter box by himself. When he has run of the two bedroom apartment he has accidents. We have 3 cats and 3 litter boxes. I have a couple of questions: is it normal for a 7 week old kitten to...

I wrote before about getting a friend for my cat Nepheline. She will be loosing her current companion in Sept. So I picked up a boy kitten (6 weeks old) from the vet and he is really sweet most of the time. Him and Nepheline are getting used to each other and even playing together. I did the...

My roommate is moving and taking her cat with her. Our cats get along really well and it will be very sad for both of them. I've thought about getting Nepheline a friend but I don't think I'll be able to afford it. Nepheline has had a lot of health problems and I've gone in debt paying for...

I have discovered that my kitten Nepheline will eat the "proper" amount of food if she is free-fed. If I feed her meals she only eats about half of what she should. My roommate has a two year old cat, which is eating different food. Nepheline gets kitten food (she is 5 months). So my question...

Hi! I got a nose stud a week ago (!!!) and was wondering if any of you have one? I got a beautiful diamond one yesterday with the ball on the end instead of the hook and want to know realistically when this one will heal and I can can change it. They say 6 weeks where I got it done but I...

Hi, I was wondering how long it takes for a cats system to "forget" a certain food so that they have to be slowly introduced to it again. Here is the backstory: I was feeding my 4 month old kitten Hill's Prescription Diet PD and learned here that it wasn't the best food. So I gave her a tiny...
