Cosimo is one sick cat by
T
First, I got the news that at 24 lbs. he is morbidly obese.
The leg splaying is probably because of the UTI but that's been
resolved.
Still awaiting test results to see if there's any kidney or liver
damage.
On top of that he's arthritic in his left hip and right rear knee.

shelter 7 days ago. He developed URI symptoms the second day I had

Please help: very picky eater! by
AlexZ
I think I made a mistake! I wanted to determine which (canned) foods my
cat likes, so bought a large variety from Science Diet, Fancy Feast,
Pro Plan, Iams, Nutro, etc., mostly "premium" ones but also a few from
Friskies and Whiskas just to try them too. I kept detailed notes on how
she reacted to...

Unique markings by
Switch
Hello!
wanted to comment on Lucy's markings...
She's a tabby, she's very plush, especially her belly
(if it was me; that would drive me crazy, lol)
I just noticed her feet, each toe is seperated with a black line
looking on top of her feet..you see each toe is outlined with a strong black
line.

adopted a new littter box habit. She places her front paws in the box,
her hind paws on the edge of the box, and she squats and urinates

Innova and better looking cats by
[email protected]
Someone mentioned their cat looked better, nicer fur, using Innova, as
opposed to Science Diet. Since that thread, originally the low
phosphorus thread, is way over 100 posts and Google has stopped
numbering the posts when being viewed, for the time being, I am
starting a new thread if that's okay....

Indoor vs. Outdoor Dilemma by

I know the general topic has _certainly_ been addressed here a million
times, but I'd like to hear some brainstorming on how I can get around
the problem in my own future situation.
My wife and I have three cats (2-3 years old) that were raised entirely
as happy, laid-back indoor cats. In a...

Heart Murmur by
jmc
I've just come back from the vet. He says Meep has a heart murmur.
It's a bit odd, he didn't tell me in the examining room but as I was
checking out, "did you know Meep has a murmur?". He didn't give me a
grading or anything, and I didn't know to ask until now, when I've been
googling for...

Update on Spam (the cat not the emails) by
Glitter Ninja
As I posted in my rant a few days ago, Spam had been pooping in the
living room. So today I caught the entire production and I think he's
constipated.
Spam peed in his pan, and pooped a little tiny bit before coming back
to his favorite chair. After five minutes he hopped down and headed for

Thank you all for you input.
Yes, he has gone to the bathroom every day I have had him. He has done

Medical reasons for not purring? by
[email protected]
Hi, first-time poster here. I adopted a 3-year-old cat about five
months ago and have been trying to figure out why he doesn't purr. He's
a very affectionate cat, doesn't seem at all traumatized. But he simply
doesn't purr. He does make a bit of a squeaky noise every now and
again, but it's not at...

How many shots do my cats need? Is the Vet ripping me off? Help!!! by

Hi, four months ago someone tossed some kittens into my yard. Although I
already have two cats, I decided to keep these two kittens, as there is
no way I could ever drop them off at the pound.
At seven months of age I took them to have them spayed and neutered. The
doctor told me they must have...

Odd litterbox habits by
jmc
For most of her life, Meep was a cat that would only pee once a day, and
poo like every other day. After her second cystitis attack, we made
some changes that finally got her drinking enough water, and she was
eating more canned food for a while.
So, she is using the litterbox more like a normal...
