Cat has scabs on his back
Sorry I didn't see this before. My cat is allergic to carbs. His back breaks
out if he eats carbs. Try putting your cat on a NO carb diet and see if they
go away.

16 yr. old cat constantly throwing up
Along with checking the thyroid, I would also wonder if she has

15 isn't old for a cat these days. Yes take it to the vet now - it
could be as simple as a thyroid problem, which is very common and can
be controlled - expecially if caught early - or kidney...

Do other cats know a cat is dying?

household is ill. Usually they will not be kind to the sick kitty -
survival of the pack - they try to run off the sick one. Sometimes...

Should I spank my cat?
Your cat is urinating inside because he has a problem - bladder
infection, etc. Take him to the doctor. This is his way of telling
you he is sick. Spanking does nothing but make the cat fearful...

Easy way to apply Cat ear and eye medicine??
Get the cat to your level, not the cat's level. IE - put the cat on
the kitchen counter. You don't need the towel - that only makes it
