Cat Who Chirps by
Noreen Cooper
At the risk of finding out a zillion of you out there have a cat who can
do this, the feral cat I adopted is now 6 months old and has the most
unusual talent: she *chirps* when she sees birds through the window. I'm
not kidding you. The cat makes a bird-like sound. Really, how common is
this? ...

Oh, no. Kitty has to go. by
[email protected]
After all this, my allergies have re-awakened. Severely.
I'm already on allergy medication.
My neighbor will take her in, but says she will declaw her on day one.
So I don't want that.
But I won't be able to live all winter this miserable.

Metabolic Acidosis by
Mavalon
What is used in diagnosing and confirming metabolic acidosis in a cat
with kidney problems? I have 5 blood readings over the past 3 months
that show consistently low carbon dioxide and consistently high anion
gap. The low C02 is in the low/normal range and the anion gap is in
the high/normal...

to Sparky (vomiting) by
Laurie Fullerton
Hello Sparky, I have some good advice for you. I know alot about cats and
have two cats at home. Never feed a cat or kitten tuna because it takes away
their vitamin E. It is also very strong and might make them throw up. Wet
cat food is also not a good idea either, it is not very good for them....

Allergies, Linear Granuloma, and Diet by
Mary
Cheeky has asthma--presented with it the day I brought her home from
the shelter. Very scary attacks which we control with shots. I wait
as long as I can i.e. until she coughs or sniffles, to take her in
because I know that steroid use can cause diabetes and a host of other
problems. She is...

Joyful Noises by
afr
It's amazing how relative life can be. Prior to one month ago, if someone
would have asked me what sounds I enjoy the most, it would have been the
waves rolling in, in Yahatz or Florence, Oregon.
About 30 minutes ago, I was hanging my coat up, as I saw my cat enter the
bathroom, right around the...

Lipgor
Hello everyone,
I have posted here once before about neutering (spraying) my female
cat, and I now I hope that someone can give me some advice as to what
I should do with my beloved pet.
I have to leave the US for 1.5 months in 2 weeks, and now I am
deciding what to do with my cat.
I really don't...

Buying Amoxicillin by
Caliban
Is it illegal everywhere in the U.S. to sell amoxicillin (for one's cat) without
a prescription?
I need some for my cat. The vets I called so far say he must be examined (for
around $40) and then they'll write a prescription. But the reality is, my cat
does not let himself be examined at a vet's,...

Feces sticking to cat's behind by
Robert Bowen
Hello all. I have seen a couple messages on the subject but no one
seems to have given an answer. I have a black cat, rather chubby, not
a long hair. Now ... the fact that he is quite roly-poley might have
something to do with his problem, but I am not sure.
He always has at least one piece of...

Where do you get your L-Lysine? by
Meghan
Hi,
I have a beautiful little 15-month old cat (Bailey) who was diagnosed by my
vet with Feline Herpes at age 6 months. He already had it when he came to
us from the shelter. His main symptom is his eyes - constantly flaring up,
the lids getting red and he is always squinting. I can count on...

another FeLV testing question by
Ben Katz
I recently rescued a kitten estimated at 6 months old. She has been spayed,
vaccinated, and tested negative for FIV/FeLV (snap test). My concern is that
if she has been recently exposed, it could be too early for an accurate
test. She has been isolated from my other kitties in a spare bedroom for...

Feral cat refuses to eat by
Sheri
Hi --- I recently trapped 2 young feral male cats. The smaller one
amazingly started purring when I petted him (even though he'd never
let anyone around here touch him before). He's now eating fine and
acting affectionate toward me.
His buddy is another story. He acts utterly terrified. He was...

several times and slept a lot . We took him to the vet today and a

Deafening vocalizing by

Having posted the original story of the rescue of this poor old feral guy
(took a year and a half to trap), he has been completely vetted, neutered
and blood work is exceptional. He has been living under bed for a week and
yesterday was coaxed out for a pet for the first time. All is well and...
