We've been leaving food our for a feral male cat in our neighborhood. He's youngish, about a year and a half. Today he came strolling up the street with a kitten in his mouth. He dropped it next to our porch and wandered a little ways off to sun himself. The kitten is frightened, but ok, other...

Sorry for the crossposts. I just now checked out the cat groups but didn't really see which one would be best, nor how much overlap there is. My 15-year old, Sadie Bugbane, was abused on her first trip to the vet, and since then it is almost worth the vet's life to take her in the doc. She is...

Last week I got a 2 month old kitten from the Animal Welfare shelter. I brought her in today with a stool sample because she was vomiting and didn't seem to be eating much. They told me she had feline distemper and that it's fatal. Long story short they took her from me, I'm assuming to be...

One of the four tabby kittens that was part of the recent TNR died. I found her laying under our outdoor glider when I came home from work tonight. There weren't any signs of injury, nor had she appeared to be sick. The last I'd seen of her was Wednesday and she was just fine then. They do...

Hi Folks, Once we got confirmation of diagnosis that our Birman seal tabby did in fact have ringworm,&also our seal point little birman girl too...we have issolated them from the others individualy & sought treatment for ourselves too.We have all got to be treated as a precautionary measure(now...

I took Grady to the new vet today. 2 hours and $231 later, I know what he doesn't have. Well, he does have one thing, a heart murmur. The new vet asked if I kenw that, and I told her no. My prior vet never mentioned it, perhaps he didn't think it had any significance. She did x-rays and...

My adult cat has been vomiting bile on a regular basis for several months, but not frequently. He will do it a few times in as many days and then stop for a few weeks. Then the cycle repeats. My soon-to-be-ex-vet wasn't concerned, said it was probably from a change in diet... even though it...

I have 2 cats. Both are fixed. One is 12 years old and one is 6. Both are indoor cats only. They have always gotten along and been very good friends. A few months ago the older cat, Willie, was up on the window ledge when a stray jumped onto the ledge outside. This stray was in heat and she sprayed...

Any improvement?

I just saw my cat pulling turds out of his butt with his mouth. He free feeds Science Diet indoor variety. He doesn't howl or show any kind of distress. He shares a box with his brother, so I don't know if he is pooping normally. What does this indicate? Is it something I should stress...

My wife and I are going on a month long trip to Australia and are wondering what to do with our 2 year old cat Elvis. We may be able to find 2 places where the people might take him but they are not experienced cat owners and I'm afraid he'll eat their plants, shred their furniture, spread and...

Hi guys, it's been a while I know, but RL has socked it to me lately. I need some ideas about what's going on with Jessie's eyes. Two different vets (in two different vet practices) have looked at it and said it was "nothing", and "just sleep", but none of my other cats (except, occasionally,...

Acetaminophen & Cats All should be aware of the toxicity of acetaminophen in cats: A quick Google search revealed that apparently Acetaminophen is very toxic to cats: "Acetaminaphen, the main ingredient of Tylenol and several other non-aspirin

My 18 year old Sprite has no teeth left. She has a good appetite but has trouble getting food off the plate. Any suggestions on a quality canned food with lots of gravy and no big chunks? nancy

My husband told me this morning that his allergies have really been acting up since Tumbleweed came to live with us. He didn't tell me before because I had loved the cat so much. I've had him at the vet's since yesterday to treat his diarrhea and find out of any physical causes of this. I bought...

Have any of you had any experience with products that have contained either of these powders for killing fleas in the carpet? Which works better? Thanks, Stacey -- ~~~~~~~~~~ Remember, remember, the 5th of November
