My pussy heads straight for my bed when she comes in the house. Trouble is her paws some times still have dirt and sand that tracks on to the bed. Some nights I'm kept awake and have to keep trying to brush the dirt off the bed. It's uncomfortable having a bit of sand on the bed.

First off - thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers. It has provided us with more comfort than you can imagine! and we did get a chance to see Pippy at the animal hospital this evening... I posted some details about our visit and a few pictures. Please read about it on his blogger...

Hello, My cat Roxy's eye has had some discoloration ever since she had a severe infection back in February. I took her to the vet several times and tried lots of different medications. The infection came under control, but her eye has never gotten back to normal. So this morning I brought her to...

I'm posting here to let everyone know that my cat, Pippy, hasn't been doing well since Saturday morning. We lost Pippin's brother, Ralphie, about 9 months ago so we're praying for Pippin to make it through this unscathed. You may recognize Pippy from the "Pippy, the begging kitty" video that has...

Hello All, I am hoping someone here might be able to help me! I have had 2 cats for about 4 years now they were purchased one year apart but they have always gotten along throughout 4 years. One is female and one is male, both spayed and nutered, and up until a few months ago they were best of...

Rhett the giant tabby is a chewer. He's never chewed on anything like electrical cords or anything; he likes to chew on hard things. Like plastic things. Humidifier water containers (he pushes the whole contraption around the floor chewing on it); air duct deflector thingies (he's even pulled...

Repost-- Thanks both Phil and Nomen for your expertise and advice regarding our newly diagnosed HCM cat. When I brought her in for her one week re-check last week I was able to talk to my regular vet. He is great--he told me that he sees a lot of cats that if diagnosed early as my cat was, and if...

Dear Friends in Felinity: After presenting with a swollen paw and marked weight loss (by my own account) my very shy, 12-year old spay, Tabisha, has been biopsied and diagnosed with having a schwannoma. The vet stated the pathologists report assured it was benign. However, he recommended if...

I've been going to the same veterinary clinic for several years now. The other day I took my cats in for their yearly exam. When it was time to pay, the receptionist told me everything that they had done (minus the individual cost) and then told me the final cost. I was anxious to get out of there...

Earlier this week each of my 12 y/o females had a complete physical. This included the hands on checkup as well as blood and urine sample draws. The Vet advised that both cats were in remarkable condition for their age. She said that the cats both needed to have their teeth cleaned as they...

I still have some left over Sergeants anti-flea products and I would like to know if it is as sufficent defense as Frontline. Thanks, David Lee P.S. I also use CAPSTAR.

Monday I took the kitty to the vet for a bladder infection with blood. Seemed to improve for a few days and then started sliding backwards again. Wasn't eating, wasn't acting like he normally does, etc. Not going to the litter every 15 minutes like he was on Monday - I was afraid he was plugged...

Suddenly, just as this summer is beginning, my two three-year-old cats have occasionally been "coughing". It starts with one "cough", then the cat quickly crouches so that its body is sort of close to and parallel with the floor, and then the coughs continue. It's a similar position to the...
