    Post-spay: Stitch Types? Cone? Litter?

    The girls are doing well! Running and playing in their onesies, looking too adorable :) The stitches are completely dry, and seem to be getting better by the day. Still rough to the touch, but less red and no leaking of any kind. Freddie does have a little lump near the bottom of her's, which...

    Post-spay: Stitch Types? Cone? Litter?

    Their sites seem to be doing alright - just a little rough to the touch, which I assume is normal? Volta's is a bit more red and raw-looking around the stitches themselves, but neither have had any bleeding or puss!

    Post-spay: Stitch Types? Cone? Litter?

    Thank you!! It's reassuring to know my instincts (and the other forum suggestions!) were correct. :) The grey long-hair (Volta) is a little too small for her onesie, so she was wriggling out of it a bit last night, but with a few stitches and a readjustment it seems like it will work out. They...

    Post-spay: Stitch Types? Cone? Litter?

    Hey folks! I know there are already a host of other posts about this, and I've searched through and read them alllll... but I wanted to address a more comprehensive set of questions / experiences, and see if anyone could weigh in! My two female kittens are now 5.5 months, and just got spayed on...

    Auto-feeder Tips: Wet Food, Multiple Cats

    Thanks for all the replies! I purchased a relatively inexpensive wet food feeder on Amazon, and it seems to help a little... they still crave attention SO early in the morning, but I'm hoping they'll grow out of that at least a bit :) Kittens; the cutest little terrors around.

    Auto-feeder Tips: Wet Food, Multiple Cats

    I do the same when I'm away, this is specifically for early mornings. We've lost so much sleep, and have tried almost everything to get the kittens into a better routine, but we're at our wits end and looking for a better, more reliable option.

    Auto-feeder Tips: Wet Food, Multiple Cats

    It definitely does pose a challenge, and reviews are so mixed. It's true, we only need it for morning feedings (possibly not even *every* morning, as sometimes I'm up very early for work). Thanks for the links to threads. I was having trouble finding one with a double-compartment that could be...

    Auto-feeder Tips: Wet Food, Multiple Cats

    Thank you so much! This sounds like exactly what I'm looking for. In shopping around, I've found mostly single (small) compartment, or ones that can't be programmed to open at the same time. I also planned on keeping the cans refrigerated until bedtime (when I load the feeder), which I think...

    Auto-feeder Tips: Wet Food, Multiple Cats

    Hi there! I've looked through a number of posts on the forums, and haven't found precisely what I'm looking for... if it is buried in there, I apologize for redundancy :) I have two kittens, approximately 5 months old. Needless to say, they eat A LOT at this stage. We've been giving them a...

    Fvrcp And Rabies Vaccine - Reactions?

    I'm so happy to report that the girls are officially in the clear! Monday's vet visit was a huge success; they're negative for giardia, and are finally at the right weight (3 lbs each). They also got their last round of rabies vaccines and their 2nd fvrcp (one more round to go) with no side...

    Help With Giardia.

    I'm in a battle with giardia and have a few questions if anyone can help... When the first bout of diarrhea and sad leaky butts hit, our living room was ground zero (we came home to a literal sh*t storm... lol). I have cleaned surfaces and floors, and wiped and scrubbed spots on furniture and...

    Fvrcp And Rabies Vaccine - Reactions?

    Yes! I misspoke - they were given another round of metronidazole, and a 5 day treatment of panacur (they referred to this as a "parasitic dewormer" ?)
