Hi My cat has been pulling her hair out for months now - to the point where her belly and legs look like she's been shaved. I think it has been caused by lots of changes including building work, moving house and having a baby. Unfortunately I can't afford vet bills at the moment and have no...

Hi, My cat has lost a lot of hair on her stomach and on the insides of her legs. She doesn't seem to have any skin irritation, the hair in these areas has just become really sparse and short. She's not got any bald patches, just a lot less hair on her underside. Has anyone else had this happen...

Thanks for the advice. I think it is fleas, she had the same thing last year and it was fine once we got rid of the fleas. I've noticed what I think is flea dirt but haven't seen any fleas yet. Apart from a couple of dead ones after she had half a dose of stronghold. I'll try the medicated...

Hi, A quick question, Does anyone know of anything to help stop cats itching. My cat's got a few bald patches and scabs around her neck where she's scratched and licked the hair and skin off. I think it's fleas. I used stronghold around 3 weeks ago but as I only had one dose and it was just...

Hi, Thanks for the advice. I'm taking her to the vet tonight for blood tests. I think it is a stubborn bladder infection though. Apart from going to the loo more often, she is acting completely normal. Apart from yesterday - I was stroking her tummy and pressed around her bladder, she wasn't...

Hi, My cat has had a urine infection for around three weeks. She has blood in her urine and goes to the loo frequently. I took her to the vet 5 days ago where she had an injection which should have cured it, however it doesn't seem to have done anything. I'm going to take her back to the vet...

Hi, My Kiki gets eye infections fairly frequently, normally it doesn't last long, sometimes she needs antibiotics. I have been advised in the past to bathe the eye with saline solution. Today someone has advised me that this could be doing more harm than it is good, has anyone got any thoughts...

Mine do that too. if I have a drink by my bed at night, I have to make sure it's not water as my cat stickes her head in the glass and drinks it ! even when it's not water she has a good sniff to see what it is ! She either wants it because it's mine or she's too lazy to go to her own bowl

A quick update. I took Kiki to the vets last night. The vet said she's never seen anything like it ! Has anyone on here ever seen it ? the vet said her top teeth at the back are unusually sharp and may need filing or removing if her gums don't grow around where the teeth are sticking in.

I noticed yesterday that two of kiki's back teeth are sticking into her gums when she closes her mouth. It's a top tooth on either side and looks quite painful. when I open her mouth there are two littel holes in her gums where her teeth rest. poor kittie ! she has no problems eating or anything...

She's spayed and healthy. I've a veeling it could be nerves. after all, it was the day after bonfire night ! either that or anal glands. it hasn't happened since anyway.

True, I'll give the vet a call tonight

Yes, you would most likely notice if she has fleas. firstly, you'll see them on the cat however it may be difficult if she has dark hair. Ours have ****e paws and you can see them there. And, you will spot them around the house if you have them. Is she an outdoor cat ? If yes, I'd treat her...

Are there any other symptoms to that ?? apart from that one incident, she seems fine.

Last night, my cat sprayed watery poo on me, and it really stank ! She hasn't got diarreah, so it seems more like spraying, except brown. Yuck !!! Any ideas why she did it ??

Bless ! She'll get used to you. First let her get comfortable in the room she's in. As far as gaining her confidence in people, I'm not sure, I guess it's a case of getting her used to your presence. Spend time in the room while she's in there. Personally, I'd use the old blinky eyes. Don't...

I've just frontlined my cats for the first time (a couple of weeks ago). It made one of my cats really itchy but she was fine after a few hours (it mentioned the itching on the leaflet) One thing my vet warmed me about was if the cat licks it, it can cause foaming at the mouth. This is also...

Mine does that too, she's 8 months old now and still follows me everywhere, even when I'm in the bath ! It's wierd cos it's only me that she follows ! I think some cats just enjoy the company. or maybe they like people watching

Does anyone else's cat do this, it's really funny. Whenever we play with her, she grabs the toy and tries to pull it off me (like a dog !) then she carries it to the bottom of the stairs ! it's like her little toy storage area !! it's really funny watchign her trying to carry big things like...

Oh yes, I have the drying clothes issue too ! while I'm hanging them up, kiki pulls them off the clothes horse. If I've hung the washing up the night before, I'll get up the next mornign to find half of it on the floor ! Also, whenever I replace the cat litter, kiki comes along and uses it...
