Medical reasons for not purring? by
[email protected]
Hi, first-time poster here. I adopted a 3-year-old cat about five
months ago and have been trying to figure out why he doesn't purr. He's
a very affectionate cat, doesn't seem at all traumatized. But he simply
doesn't purr. He does make a bit of a squeaky noise every now and
again, but it's not at...

Go Red Sox
Thank you all for you input.
Yes, he has gone to the bathroom every day I have had him. He has done
both #1 and #2 each time I have checked, each day.
I did forget to mention that I have been giving him Pounce Cat treats.
I have only given him a couple, but he ate every one I have offered him.

Update on Spam (the cat not the emails) by
Glitter Ninja
As I posted in my rant a few days ago, Spam had been pooping in the
living room. So today I caught the entire production and I think he's
constipated.
Spam peed in his pan, and pooped a little tiny bit before coming back
to his favorite chair. After five minutes he hopped down and headed for

Heart Murmur by
jmc
I've just come back from the vet. He says Meep has a heart murmur.
It's a bit odd, he didn't tell me in the examining room but as I was
checking out, "did you know Meep has a murmur?". He didn't give me a
grading or anything, and I didn't know to ask until now, when I've been
googling for...

Indoor vs. Outdoor Dilemma by
[email protected]
I know the general topic has _certainly_ been addressed here a million
times, but I'd like to hear some brainstorming on how I can get around
the problem in my own future situation.
My wife and I have three cats (2-3 years old) that were raised entirely
as happy, laid-back indoor cats. In a...

meal! One of our cats is allergic to fish - is there any food that
doesn't contain any fish?

Innova and better looking cats by
[email protected]
Someone mentioned their cat looked better, nicer fur, using Innova, as
opposed to Science Diet. Since that thread, originally the low
phosphorus thread, is way over 100 posts and Google has stopped
numbering the posts when being viewed, for the time being, I am
starting a new thread if that's okay....

Unique markings by
Switch
Hello!
wanted to comment on Lucy's markings...
She's a tabby, she's very plush, especially her belly
(if it was me; that would drive me crazy, lol)
I just noticed her feet, each toe is seperated with a black line
looking on top of her feet..you see each toe is outlined with a strong black
line.

I think I made a mistake! I wanted to determine which (canned) foods my
cat likes, so bought a large variety from Science Diet, Fancy Feast,
Pro Plan, Iams, Nutro, etc., mostly "premium" ones but also a few from
Friskies and Whiskas just to try them too. I kept detailed notes on how
she reacted to...

Cosimo is one sick cat by
T
First, I got the news that at 24 lbs. he is morbidly obese.
The leg splaying is probably because of the UTI but that's been
resolved.
Still awaiting test results to see if there's any kidney or liver
damage.
On top of that he's arthritic in his left hip and right rear knee.

Just got off the phone with Science Diet and still a question or two:
Science Diet Light says good for dental.
Science Diet Indoor Cat does not say good for dental but does say good
for shedding.
Both products have almost the same profile except the Indoor Cat has
more fiber, about 20% more, and...

My Cat is behaving strangely lately by
Phillip
Hello,
We got our cat, Jonesey, about 4 months ago. We adopted him from a
no-kill shelter. He's about 3 years old and is the sweetest cat in the
world. However, he does have one bad trait that he's had from the
beginning. He won't stop begging for food! He's like Joey Tribianni on
"Friends!" ...
