Hello, I have been feeding & petting this feral cat. It has these little (less than an inch long) white, thin worm-looking things in its anus. I kind of guessed they could be worms, but since I did not see any movement, I lost that rain of thought. Recently, when I sit on the couch, the cat has...

Is this pill for tape worm? Upper left quadrant of greenish/yellowish pill is "D", lower right is "8". Got it from my vet, just double checking. Thanks very much in advance.

I recently became aware of Ragdolls. From what I've read they seem like a very appealing breed. We are considering adding one to our household but I've got a couple of questions. Our household currently has 4 cats and 4 dogs. One of our dogs who is a black lab mix of about 2 years old likes to...

Hello, We have two 1 year-old cats and an older stray we took in. The older cat is a very gentle fellow. The vet tells us he might be as old as 12. About all he wants to do is sniff around outside for a bit and then come in and sit on the nearest lap. He doesn't play much with the young cats,...

Our 7 month old tabby went out into the first snow of her life this morning. More than 2 hours later I found her My husband did not think the cold would hurt her little pads. Yet, I had read their pads were sensitive. Help resolve this debate between us? karenmamo

Good evening: I have the following problem with my cat: He has not eaten or drank anything for all the time I have had him, which was about 6 p.m. on Saturday. He has been to one doctor, was given IV fluids, Cefazolin and a tube down his throat to feed him. The next vet gave him the same type...

I know that cats hunch their backs, bristle their fur and spit when they are threatened by other animals, but my kitten likes to hunch his back when I'm petting him. Why does he do this, if this is behavior normally associated with fear? TIA Writerosity

I bid, won and received my Purr Pad from a fellow seller on eBay and the cats love it!! You can take a look at it on Kitty-Cam (http://www.kittycam.net/). It's filled with cat nip and also included a little kitty pillow and ball with catnip. Great seller, and I'm probably going to buy more! Kris

Officials of the Pantera Institute published photos last Saturday of the puma they've been hunting for over two weeks now. It's a black one, so most probably it's not a puma but a panther or a crossing of some sort. It has moved away from the nature park where it was first spotted, and has be...

I've had a little female cat since she was a kitten. She was feral and abandoned under a bush by her mother so we took her in, bathed her to kill off the fleas and had her spayed... that was 4 years ago. She's not exactly 'friendly' most of the time, preferring to come and go as she pleases tho...

Just got this kitten a few days ago and it has learned a kind of annoying little behaviour. While I am asleep it likes to cuddle up just beneath my chin and sleep. Very cute. BUT, when it wakes up and decides it wants to play, it starts to stick it's face into mine and then claw at my face...

I recently saw an ad for a 10 ft. outdoor enclosure for cats. I live in an apartment building which has a courtyard all the apartments look out on. This thing is made of green "rip stop" mesh and has stakes to anchor it securely into the ground. My cat was outdoors for several weeks before we...
