my cat's tongue turned purple! by
kitkat via CatKB.com
My cat just got back from spending the weekend at the vet's because he needed
SubQ fluids and antibiotics -
I know my cat's tongue was red - now it's purple - think its the meds or a
reaction to the meds?
I'm assuming the vet would've noticed this before otherwise she won't have
sent him home. ...

licking plastic! by
Judy F
I have three cats, and all of them like to lick plastic bags. One of them
likes to chew the plastic too. Anyone else have a cat like this? Also, does
anyone think this is dangerous in any way?

Feeding questions by
Wendy
We have a 16 year old spayed female tabby, Tigger, who has a tendency to be
overweight. We got her down to 9 lbs. but this is still a little heavy for
her frame. It is imperative to keep her weight down as she has arthritis.
We also have a 1-2 yr. old long hair spayed female, Isabel. We...

Newbie with a question by
Joy
Hi all,
I'm new here, although I'm a long-time subscriber to rpca. I'm hoping
somebody has some suggestions to help a poor little feral kitty.
Five years ago I adopted two three-year-old littermates, a male and a
female. A few months ago the male got cancer and subsequently had to be
PTS. ...

Pro-Plan versus Fancy Feast by
cindys
Alex was recently off his food for a couple of days, so my vet suggested
that I try (canned) Pro-Plan (for the sake of its ostensible palatability),
which I did. He seemed to like a few of the flavors. However, in looking at
the labels, it lists by-products amongst the first four ingredients of...

Biting me while I'm asleep by
Tara
Hi everyone,
My 1-year-old kitty, Zali, has taken to biting me while I'm sleeping. She'll
bite me relatively softly the first time and wake me up. I tell her "no"
groggily (and in a near-whisper so as not to wake my partner) and then go
back to sleep. Then about five minutes later she'll bites me...

Survey by

There is a lot of history going on here in rpch+b that I don't know (or even

that might help me formulate opinions or...

Bumps on cat's back by

Hello !
I have a 16 year old tabbie. Along the top of her back or spine, each
vertebrae has a bony lump on it. These extend up to about 3/8 " or so.
The bigger ones toward her tail - feels like there's a ball bearing
under the skin. The bumps do not move, they are bone. So when I pet
her back...

Coat matting by
reilloc
Advise, please: my long-haired cat, who's got a personality more
suspicious than a mother/father-in-law (take your choice) and a hair
trigger when it comes to any sudden noise (and when the trigger trips
the creature turns into a buzz saw that must get away) has significant
matting of his coat....

ants in the kitty litter by
Jewelbar
Hi People!
I'm just wondering if I should worry that there are ants in my cat's litter.
They are only going after his urine. I know that if a person has diabetes,
ants will be attracted to their toilets, so I was wondering if the same was
for cats.
He always looses weight over summer, but this...

My cat won't stop begging for food by
Dom
It's all in the subject title. To give you a feel for things, my cat
will beg (cry, poke at me, search the trash for food) as soon as I get
home. I give him a 3oz can of gravy-lovers food, and a bowl of hard
food, and he licks up all the gravy in the first and takes a nibble
from the second, then...

Getting cat to use scratching post? by

I'm the one who has considered bringing in a stray, and did not want
to declaw her.
Before I commit to letting her in full time, I've been letting her in
for short periods (an hour or so), supervised.
I bought a sisal scratching post, and one of those cardboard

Counting stray cats while cycling at night by

I bought a powerful LED headlamp. Took it for a ride after dark two
nights ago. It was warm out but having the thing strapped to my forhead
at eye level, it is so powerful I could see what looked like moderate to
heavy snowfall that was probably actually teeny tiny specks of pollen.
It was not...
