3 months ago my poor 13 year old kitty got attacked by our younger cat. He got him on his tail and there was blood everywhere — we took him to the vet immediately and they prescribed antibiotics and drained the pus out of the wound. He was on a cone but not for long and he started licking again...

There’s some kind of string or worm coming out of my cat’s anus? I’m away from home and this was sent to me by a family member. They said he wouldn’t let them touch it, but now it’s gone, and there’s some bleeding near his anus. He had a wound there from a few weeks ago that he kept licking from...

Hi! My 1.5 year old kitty is about 3 weeks post PU surgery and so he's been confined in a large padded crate until he heals completely. He is litter trained as he used to live in an apartment, but ever since I brought him home 2 months ago, he's been loving the garden and going to do his...

Wow, that sounds like a dream… I’m feeling very guilty because I’m using a surgeon who does many soft tissue surgeries but has only ever done this specific one once, and she’s being guided by another surgeon who’s done this many times but who doesn’t do it anymore because her eyesight isn’t as...

Hi everyone, After constant blockages and my poor boy never being able to pee normally since then, I’ve decided to have the PU surgery done on him. I’m worried to death and am so afraid of the complications and would really appreciate any help. He likes to be outdoors so I’m setting up a...

I have some loose metal fence pieces that I can use to make a 2 by 2 foot fenced area to keep him in at night… which is when the fighting usually happens. But I don’t know if that will frustrate him and make his cystitis worsen even more.

I have tried literally everything — he was living indoors in an apartment when we first rescued him and we made every modification possible but he kept getting life threatening blockages. The only option left is the surgery to amputate his penis and create a wider opening, which I am very...

Where do you live? It was a rule once to put cats out for the night?! That’s fascinating! But also, do you mean it’s important to take him to the vet after each fight to get shots? I had two male strays who went out and fought all the time and they both died really young, at 3 years old, from...

Hey guys, I have a 2 year old cat with a bad case of stress-related cystitis whom I brought home to live with me in a house with a garden. It's a long story, but essentially, he seems to need some combination of the freedom to roam, and being in nature, in order to feel relaxed enough so that...

Hi guys, I made an earlier post about this but I’ve since managed to video my two cats and was hoping for some insight and tips. I’m so afraid of them getting hurt and really need them to get along, so any help is appreciated! Some context: Boris is my neighbour’s 13-year old British shorthair...

Oh good point! Yes I always mix extra water in his food, about that amount as well. He’s actually naturally quite a drinker, so maybe I don’t have to go too hardcore on adding so much water to his food?

I rotate between Fussie Cat chicken and Feline Natural, which are both decently high quality. I think he’s gotten used to two meals a day, because the one day I tried to split it up into smaller meals, it threw him off, and he wouldn’t finish his food and ended up eating way less than now. So...

Are two 3oz cans of wet food enough for my 9lbs cat to eat? He used to eat half a can in the morning, half a can at night with some dry food to graze on throughout the day, but he has recently developed cystitis and urethral spasms so we’ve switched him over to wet exclusively. Through the...

Thank you for your detailed response! I also had the feeling that Hurri wasn’t being aggressive, but him jerking forward and doing that “mowwwwwww” meow made me second guess. Is that normal even for curiosity? I just went out to check on them and saw that Hurri and Boris were laying down very...

Hi everyone, The members on this site have been very helpful with Hurri, my poor cystitis cat who has been through an ordeal with multiple blockages, bladder inflammation and urethral spasms, whom I have moved over to where I live with my parents in a pretty open house with a big garden in...
