In recent months we have had a high incidence of respiratory problems with cats in our shelter - some that have had severe sudden-onset asthma-like symptoms. After one kitten's symptoms cleared up almost immediately after a change of bedding, we are thinking that laundry detergent might have...

I apologize in advance that this isn't a cat question per se. I do love cats and grew up with them. Currently, I can't have any as my gf is very allergic to them. Anyway, this is about ringworm. And there have been some posts about it in this group, so I assumed someone might have some good tips....

Posted at alt.binaries.pictures.animals are a few pictures of the last 2 remaining males from Sammy's June litter that I kept. The posting order came out a little screwed up since the wife was yakking at me while I was putting the post together. Two of the litter were adopted out to good homes at...

I have a question that I was hoping someone could help with. We have an 11 year old cat who has been neutered and has recently decided that he wants to pee on our couches. He has a new litter box that he uses most of the time, but has just started this behavior. I've thrown away two pillows so...

My cat, Stormy, is constantly grooming himself. He now has sores on his back. They are scabbed over. He does not have fleas, is eating the same food for 8 months now (which is how long we have had him). The sores started about a month ago. They were not bad, and really, only one is about an...

I have a female cat, and (admitedly) rather foolishly I haven't had her fixed yet. How much does this typically cost for an adult-aged cat? Also, how often do they normally dothis? In our case, it seems to be every 8 weeks. That sure seems often to me, I once had another female that wasn't fixed...

There is a kitty being fostered with The Cat House of Lincoln NE who needs a special loving forever home. He is a survivor named Scooter. He is a VERY handsome black cat 2 to 3 years old, FeLV and FIV negative. He was found living under a shed in an alleyway and had the front of both his back...

Men very often don't like cats because they can't control them. Which is why I like men who like cats, because I figure they're not control-freak assholes.

I have to give my cat an IM injection. I was doing this for about a year. That was about 2 years ago. I have to do it again, it is b12 and a steroid mixture. The problem is, he seems to have lost muscle mass. When I did it last week, I felt a knot in the SQ tissue after I was done, so I am...

Well, after a week of trying to treat the punk's conjunctivitis herbally, I went to the Vet this morning. As I suspected, they both have a mild upper respitory infection. So they're now on a week of Interferon & Pentamycetin. I won't let Chablis have a word... She'd just say nasty things about...

My cat always seems to know when we are going to leave,her whole mood will change.Once we return she is her oldself,any answers?

My little sweetheart goes crazy for vanilla pudding. When I make it, her head pops up and she wants to taste it. I'm wondering if other cats do the same thing. It must be her love for sweets.

Every single cat I've known loves to start frolicing when someone is making the bed. I figure that if anything they would be afraid of something so much bigger than they are moving around, but they seem to think it is prey. -- Mark Healey marknews(at)healeyonline(dot)com

Has anyone used scraminal or catscram devices to keep cats off counters,tables,etc. and if so, was it efficient? thanks, Ken

Hi! Our 14 1/2 year old Ragdoll has an elevated bilirubin level (10x normal) and other liver enzymes are off as well. White blood count okay, other lab tests negative and nothing showed up on x-ray. In the past week she has started looking jaundiced (inside of ears starting to turn yellow). ...

Just wondering how your cat is. Is she still at the vet's? I hope she's feeling better. -- -Kelly kelly at farringtons dot net "Wake up, and smell the cat food" -TMBG

Our female cat Tabs, is currently being treated for ringworm, including antibiotics and local shampooing. The patches she has aren't typical going by the pix I can find on the web, and what he vet says. I just wondered if anyone else has had a ringwormy cat with these symptoms. Initially, the...
