About a month ago, our 1.5 year old male cat (Hans) urinated blood, and so we took him immediately to the vet. The vet got a urine sample and diagnosed him with a severe UTI. The vet then gave him a shot of Convenia (which I will never give him again after reading about horror stories after...

The vet started/continued the deworming process with medicine.  We're going back to the vet next Tuesday for a checkup on his upper respiratory infection and to continue his vaccines.  I still have questions about Toxoplasmosis for the vet and we hope to get the kitten tested for the parasite...

Thank you for the information!  Do you know this question: When does a cat shed the organism after contracting toxoplasmosis?  Does it shed the organism immediately or does it take weeks/months to shed?  Just curious.

Thank you for the comments.  It is definitely reassuring.  I just spoke to the vet as well (about his respiratory infection) and asked her these same questions.  She didn't seem concerned and just recommended that I scoop the litter box and that my wife washes her hands frequently.  She said...

Thank you for the responses.  It has been 36 hours now, and there has been no changes in our kitten (Hans).  He did sleep a lot today, more than usual (about 18-20 hours), but when we played with him, he was active as normal.  It seems like he is fine, and because of his unchanged behavior, my...

About 12 hours ago, I stepped on my kitten's back and neck.  I was standing up, putting on my shoe, and when I came down with my foot, my 8 week old kitten had ran and was under my foot.  I certainly didn't put all of my weight on the kitten, but it was enough for him to squeal.  After this...
