    Temperature and Behavior? Ferals won't eat.

    Hmm, so I guess the ferals basically ARE hibernating - hunkering down, not eating. They HAVE been sleeping more than usual. Seems logical, if that's what keeps them going. Welp, okay then! As for the water, I just keep replacing it when it gets a bit icy. Yes, they do drink a whole lot more of...

    Temperature and Behavior? Ferals won't eat.

    Ain't that the truth. This weather is just...Yikes! Suppose the only downside is that I have to go back to school once it warms up (blah, schoolwork), but one issue at a time. Yeah, thanks for the input, you guys. Bit of an update, they started eating again about two hours ago. And they sure...

    Temperature and Behavior? Ferals won't eat.

    Okay, I guess i'll keep trying, then. The wasted food is the least of concern. Thanks for the input!

    Temperature and Behavior? Ferals won't eat.

    Hi. So as you all know, or probably know, North America is just about frozen at the moment. 10 to 60 below zero. Pretty dang Cold. But, having just mass-upgraded the cat houses, we were sure the cats would have been somewhat toasty. We even used garage insulation! But, that's not the issue. Not...

    No balance or strength in hind legs

    Ah, okay. That's a good sign. You keep doing that, then. (Sorry if I sounded panicky, I was recalling what poor Kitty went through!) We've found that dehydrated/sick animals find water with a LITTLE sugar dissolved in it more appealing, just a tip.

    [NOT URGENT] Cat *Had* A Lump

    PLEASE give priorities to questions/emergencies about living cats first before answering this one. I say "Not Urgent" because the cat in question has already passed away. Seriously, respond to those in immediate danger before this one, because this is just something we were curious about of our...

    No balance or strength in hind legs

    You have no time to waste, man. Has Mickey been eating? You say he's lost weight? I'd recommend high calorie wet foods. The vet can give you some needle-less syringes to forcefeed him with. Make sure he's eating, drinking, everything. He HAS TO EAT, before he's at a stage when he can't keep it...

    Cat Breaths Loudly when he sleeps

    One of our cats, Winnie, is an approximately seven-month-old cat. He and his brother, Muffin, were former feral kittens, but the mom was tame enough to allow us to take the whole family in. At about two-ish months old, when he slept, he'd make these loud whistle noises through his nose when he...

    Litter training young kittens

    The kittens are about a month and a half now, and they've started peeing on the carpet in random spots. When I saw one about to pee in the AIRVENT, I quickly stuck him in the litter box. He ate some litter, I made him spit it out, and he got out and peed on the carpet again. His brother seems a...

    Weaning kitten meowing in litter box, constipation?

    Muffin AND Winnie (brothers) both meow when they're in the litter box. Ever since they were kittens (About six months now) they'd meow as if to say, "Occupied!" when they were doing their business. So, I wouldn't worry about it. c:

    Am I weaning them right?

    That's what I thought. We'll try that tomorrow! I've found that solid orange males ALWAYS prefer dry food, for some reason. Cats are fascinating.
