My 7 year old female cat, Dirty Face has red showing thru her white fur on her nose. Last Aug. when I took her for her annual shots I mentioned it to the vet. He said to put Neosporin on it. It didn't help. Then it was just red between the eyes now it's down her nose. What on earth could cause...

Once in America a plane crashed, only a monkey who was traveling in the plane was left alive. Fortunately the monkey was intelligent enough to understand our language and reply in actions. The officials went to see the monkey in the hospital and had a talk with the monkey. Officer: "When the...

Every year I completely replace my litter pans - just toss out the old ones and start fresh. Last night I went out and plunked down $8.99 each for two "Giant" Van Ness litter pans. I hired a babysitter and spent two and a half hours today cleaning the pet area - replacing all the bedding,...

I have a 13 1/2 year old male tabby. About four months ago he started to vomit usually, but not always shortly after eating. Since I only feed him once a day that meant he threw up all his food for the day. Right after that he'd be begging for food. I took him to the vet who examined him and...

"Popof 3D" wrote in message ... I just got 10-year old cat. I haven't bought her a cat tree yet as I'm saving up for it. In the meantime, I got those cheap scratch posts (sisal) that hang on a door and a box containing...

Dmitri sometimes misses his litter box by a fraction of an inch, and shoots all over the floor. If I happen to be in there when he's going and see that he's missing, I can physically push his rear into position and all is fine, but you can imagine the messes. So I had gone online to find out how...

I woke at 2 am to some horrible screaming in the backyard. It sounded like a cat fight but it didn't sound like cats. I never heard anything like it before but it sounded like something was being killed. I didn't know if it was my yard or a neighbor and couldn't see anything. It went on for several...

I was wondering what was better for cats, bio spot or frontline? My house was infested with fleas (I rent and it was the previous owner's fault) and even though I had an exterminator in here last week, my cats had a flea bath but both the house and cats are still crawling with fleas. We're...

Do cats feel the heat during the summer hot weather? If they do, is there anything we need to do to cool them off? Zoe

I see these very expensive scratching posts at Petsmart. I was thinking of making my own scratchin post for our new cats. Does carpet really provide a scratching post for the cats? These things they sell look like fun toys for the cat but do they really provide a scrathin post. I thought they...

The time has come for us to open our hearts to some kitties who need a permanent home. It has been a long time since we adopted cats, and they have always been kittens. This time, we would like to adopt two adult cats together, preferably two who have been companions. I have never adopted adult...

It's smalll, and a little bloody, We let him outside, but should I be worried?

Our 2 year old tom has starting having trouble peeing and when he does manage it he seems to use anywhere but the tray. He's constantly trying go and wondering around the house crying. He was previously diagnosed with cystitis (he was passing small amounts of blood in his urine) and given...

I have a 13 yr old male cat. A blood test on him (1st time the cat had a blood test) tells that an enzyme in his blood is very high due to the pancreas not working properly, possibly pancreatic cancer. The normal level for this enzyme is 300-1100, his level has varied during his 3 blood tests from...

My male cat "Kitty" is very gentle. The feral female "Kiki" has been here for four years and two months, and is still untouchable and still hisses at me from time to time. As shown on my picture page, they have a Skyway that allows them to hang out above the crowd. They love it. A week ago, I...

We had a litter of 5 kittens dumped at the shelter yesterday. They were left in a carrier with a pillow in front of the carrier (so we wouldn't see them? not sure what the pillow was for) at the fence. They range in size from 3 lbs to 1 lbs, all have conjunctivitis and URI. The two...
