    Royal Canin and Crystals

    Hi. RC does seem to dissolve crystals, although I would be hard pressed to explain the mechanics of it. Some cats only need to be on it for a period of time and can often return to their normal food. Routine urine analysis will tell you how effective it is for Ziggy. Obviously, the wet...

    Tumor vs abscess?

    I am so sorry for what happened to Tavi. My condolences to you. But, there are so many variables/scenarios/etc. that what you will hear from folks here are about their own stories of abscesses and tumors that will likely only add confusion to an already confusing situation. There will be no...

    My cat has an open wound that won’t heal. Please help

    The pic is too dark to see anything. This wound has been going on so long, that there is likely nothing you can do if you can't get vet help to treat it properly. You don't say what country you are in, nor do you say what resources you have researched to find some kind of help. We'd be happy...

    How to identify identical newborns

    Maybe nobody does it anymore, but there are folks who used to use non-toxic, washable colored markers on the inside tip of an ear.

    Featured Fleas and Tapeworms

    Interesting. I guess my cat is just out of the norm then. We've been fighting fleas off and on for a few years now and - knock on wood - she has not had any tapeworms.

    Cats pooping beside litter box

    Hi and welcome to TCS. Odds are it isn't both of them, but can't rule that out without more investigation (like a baby cam focused on the boxes to see who is doing it). Although one doing it can lead to both of them because of the scent. Any change in the stools found outside the box in terms...

    tooth problem with feral?

    I guess if it were me, I'd watch over her and see how it goes. The problem with some sort of dental issue might be an eventual infection that would need to be treated. But, for now she is eating again and that is good. I don't think she sounds a feral as you make her out to be given what you...

    Outside cat deterrent solar powered

    Kind of a broad based and generic question. Maybe more information world help. Not sure why it needs to be solar powered. Are you looking to keep all cats, birds, etc. out of your yard? Probably not possible, but motion activated sprinklers might do the trick for most unwanted critters.

    Litter mates no longer friends

    Hi and welcome to TCS! This seems to be a classic case of non-recognition aggression - as pretty much said above. One cat goes to the vet and comes back smelling differently. Usually, it will only last a few days, and if you scent swap between the two of them, that might help get to the point...

    Featured Help! Vet wants to sedate my OA cat for nail trimming

    I agree, more information could help us to better understand what might be behind why the vet would suggest such a drastic approach for nail trimming. Solensia is one option to help with arthritic pain. Joint supplements, if she is not already on one, can help with reducing future joint damage...

    Weird Scab/growths that no one can identify

    Hi and welcome to TCS, despite what brought you here. I agree with all of the above, and that you should go to either a vet that specializes in dermatological issues or an internal med vet. I am a bit surprised that your vet didn't think to try to swab one of those areas, especially when raw...

    Hi and welcome to TCS, despite what brought you here. There may be other tips you can use in this TCS article - the latter half is about cats lost/missing outside. Help! My Cat Is Lost! [Step By Step Guidance To Find Your Beloved Kitty] - TheCatSite

    cat overgrooming because of meds

    Have you ever considered trying another approach to giving her the meds? Hidden in lickable treats, tuna juice, baby food meat or other types of food that she might like? I don't know about what Flagyl tastes like, but many say the lactulose is not very pleasant tasting - perhaps your vet would...

    Featured Fleas and Tapeworms

    When you call the vet, ask if it would be more appropriate to test his stool for worms first. I presume you cn collect some stool from outside - ideally soon after he goes - bag it and refrigerate it if you can't get it to the vet right away. Although, fairly common with fleas and tapeworms, it...

    Help! Pawing at face and acting like in extreme pain

    Personally speaking, you be better off to spend the money on an internal medicine specialist - one who is part of a specialty group with dental, neurology, etc. That way they could confer with one another as needed. All of his records/tests can be shared with them as a starting point. Most of...

    Cat advice

    Nor does he care. Anyone that you associate with in your neighborhood that can speak the same language as the male cat's owner? This person really needs to be aware as much as the female's cat owner does.

    Cat advice

    If you haven't already, at least let the female cat's owner know what is going on. If you know the language that male cat's owner speaks you could install and translator app on your phone so they know what is happening too. Besides getting one of them to take action, there is not much you can...

    Cat advice

    Hi and welcome to TCS! Can you talk to the neighbor who owns the male cat and ask if something has changed, given that I take it this a recent change with hm coming over to your house? You can also consider setting two dishes out - one for each, but in separate locations. If there is a dish...

    The Right Balance

    Hi. You can also try giving her some Applaws AND some of the James Wellbeloved in the morning and repeat at the evening meal - in separate dishes and/or mixed. If there is any chance that she just eats enough of her dry food throughout the day that she isn't really all that hungry for her second...
