Our 2 year old tom has starting having trouble peeing and when he does manage it he seems to use anywhere but the tray. He's constantly trying go and wondering around the house crying. He was previously diagnosed with cystitis (he was passing small amounts of blood in his urine) and given...

I have a 13 yr old male cat. A blood test on him (1st time the cat had a blood test) tells that an enzyme in his blood is very high due to the pancreas not working properly, possibly pancreatic cancer. The normal level for this enzyme is 300-1100, his level has varied during his 3 blood tests from...

We had a litter of 5 kittens dumped at the shelter yesterday. They were left in a carrier with a pillow in front of the carrier (so we wouldn't see them? not sure what the pillow was for) at the fence. They range in size from 3 lbs to 1 lbs, all have conjunctivitis and URI. The two...

"I simply can't resist a cat, particularly a purring one. They are the cleanest, cunningest, and most intelligent things I know, outside of the girl you love, of course". - quoted in Abroad with Mark Twain and Eugene Field, Fisher -- http://www.twainquotes.com/Cats.html It's a cool web page,...

My trick is simple: I dip the pill and my fingers in cooking oil before medicating the cat. This achieves two things: 1. the oily pill goes down the throat fast and does not get stuck on the tongue 2. the cat's muzzle gets oily from my fingers and he starts licking his chops right away, and that...

We have two 5-year-old male indoor cats, brothers that were both fixed at 6 months of age. Over the past 6 months on 3 occasions one of the cats has become very dominant and has aggressively attacked the other. So far these episodes have lasted for about 24 hours and then everything goes back to...

My fur baby Chaplin is getting old. He's a large-boned Ragdoll who turns 14 this September and weighs around 12 lbs. Down from 16lbs last year. This past year has been hard on him. Some of you may remember about the lump in his tail I asked about. It's still there and I did have it aspirated. The...

Get it? You don't. You take them to the ****ing vet. You FIND the money. If you're posting here, I know you're paying for Internet, probably highspeed,and that you probably have a ****ing computer you could hock. You do not "wait and see" and go buy yourself this week's groceries. You do not...

to combat the shedding? I have four indoor only cats - and my 2 males shed like crazy all year round - the more I brush them, the more they shed (or so it seems) - my house is becoming covered with cat hair. I don't have dust bunnies anymore, I have dust elephants fueled by the cat hair - I can't...

I brought Tiger back to the vet today to have her procedures done (ear cleaning, teeth cleaning, removal of tumor). She was not happy to be back at the vet's. While I was in the waiting room I took her out of her carrier. She was shaking, and just curled up in my lap and stayed put. The vet...

Well, after almost 2 years of being diagnosed with CRF and hyper-t, my soon-to-be 18 year old Cory has to get sub-q fluids administered by me. I know you've all said it's no big deal after the first couple of times so I hope you are right. Tomorrow will be my first attempt. Cory has been acting...

I am facing a real dilemma with a stray cat that hangs out near my apartment complex. He's part of a local trap-neuter-return program. I had decided to adopt him because some of the people who live here hate cats and have made threats to harm them. He likes people so I figured he'd be the easiest...

Hi, I would like to get a perch for her Highness to look out the back window of our house. She has many options for the front but there is only one window that would be possible for backyard viewing and it's in the small dining area. I have seen some perches for around $20.00 in my Drs Foster and...

Tee shirts also allow you to be far more creative than a simple invitation by card. If there is going to be a band performing at your birthday party, put a picture of the band on the shirt with their logo. If you are looking to have a beach themed party, create a shirt full of color with palm trees...

To preface, I'm a great believer in vaccinations for both pets and people. However.... My indoor only cat has a reaction to rabies vaccines. When I got her, at about 11 weeks, I took her in for the last of her kitten shots (if I remember correctly). She developed a lump at the injection site. I...

Well, things are trundling along slowly but surely here. We've started using a spray bottle and by god Henry respects its authoritah..All I need to do is put it on the ground between him and the other cats and he calms right down. Anyway, Louis is relaxed enough to play (cautiously) in the...

Hi Mom, Thanks for the idea regarding Auto Trader. I might actually get money doing it this way. If I sell the car at $2200 (this is less the engine) or more, maybe I can get someone willing to buy it for the parts. They also have an online auction as well. It is a nice idea. The ads cost $27 for...
