    Refusing Medication...

    I will try putting it in his ear if he absolutely refuses the compounded treats. I can try gravy but he will probably turn his nose up at it. He's very difficult....

    Hello! I recently rescued a very kitten off the street and quarantined him for about a month... but that didn't stop all of us (two humans and two other cats) to catch his ringworm.... They all had ringworm throughout the entire house. On their cat tree, the couches, their beds, MY bed, etc. I...

    Refusing Medication...

    Hello! My two year old male Houston was diagnosed with hyperestesia and was put on a small dose of Prozac daily. It's been working! HOWEVER... It is a battle to give him the liquid medication. I wrap him in a towel and hold on tight while my boyfriend gets the meds in his mouth. It's not fun...

    Attacking His Tail; Is It Behavioral Or Medical?

    @PushPurrCatPaws he hasnt, but that's a good idea. Thank you I will add it to my list of questions for the vet!! I definitely want to check medically before drugging him and potentially hiding a medical issue!

    Attacking His Tail; Is It Behavioral Or Medical?

    Thank you Furballsmom! I have done hours upon hours of research on different types of limited ingredient food. I haven't heard of Koha, it looks intriguing!! I'm definitely going to try the music too. Thanks! Thank you FeebysOwner! I have looked into hyperesthesia, but he doesn't seem to...

    Attacking His Tail; Is It Behavioral Or Medical?

    Kind of a long intro... bear with me!! Houston is a 2 year old black domestic short hair. I rescued him at about a day old. A feral female was pregnant (part of a feral colony I tamed, got them fixed and provided medical care and got most of them adopted) who had 3 kittens, but only accepted 2...

    I have tamed many feral cats and kittens while caring for them on the property. One became so friendly he would greet me every time i came home. When he first showed up he would run away if you even made eye contact. It took a lot of patience but he was a total sweetheart. We were the able to...

    Lonely Bottle Baby

    Thank you both! I have many interactive toys and food puzzles for him. I try to associate my leaving with good things. I will start looking for other kitties to add to our family, I never considered another bottle baby to be an issue, but now that you mentioned it it makes complete sense. Thank...

    Lonely Bottle Baby

    Good morning! I rescued my little Houston at one day old when his mother left him behind to care for her two other kittens. I bottle fed him (reading lots and learning as I went), raised him, and he is now a year and a half. He is my entire world. My vet calls him "a bratty bottle baby" because...
