My foster kitty, and soon to be foster fail Artie just had his feeding tube removed this week after a little over a month of tube feedings to help clear his Fatty Liver. Now coming off of it we have been exploring new food. One problem is he likes super expensive food like Earthborne Wet food...

My cat ginger (Norwegian Forrest Cat) has very long thick hair, and it's just out of control, she hates me grooming her, especially in certain areas and now shes started getting matted and I want to get them out and get better with her care. Does anyone have any advice, tools or tricks?

I would love some healthy options I can give my kitties as treats. I know avocado and boiled chicken are good but I’d love more options.

Advice about this guy is wanted. Little Leo (Leopold) is a piggy. He cries ALL the time for hours sometimes and he has started to start under the doors of the room we’re in. We can feed him more then enough and he will still cry for hours for more wet food. Obviously the dry food is out but he’s...

So one of my foster kittens has started using their food bowl as a literbox and I’m at a loss on how to prevent this.

I may end up adopting and doing a private honestly. I was supposed to leave the rescue as a foster/coordinator after my current active fosters are adopted, because of chaos in the rescue currently, and who knows how long figuring this out with him. We’re in Chicago area but thank you!

I have talked to my coordinator about something like that, they even had him going home with a receptionist at night but unfortunately it’s out of her hands when it comes to the adoption process. This is our third time giving him back and it’s honestly harder each time.

He tested negative for both of those, however I know feline herpes can test negative until they’re having an active infection, however he has never had symptoms indicating he has it. He hasn’t gotten to a home yet, as they adopt out of clinics but prior to the clinic he had food aggression...

I didn’t exactly know what category to put this in or what to put as the title but I am a foster kitten momma and I have had this little kitten that has just been a bunch of work. He took awhile to be ready to be fixed and put up for adoption (we foster until 8 weeks and at least 2 lbs and/or...

Definitely. I was super skeptical myself, because I couldn’t find a whole lot of physical research on the internet about it and the little I did find was about dogs. That’s why I got the second opinion, and it’s worked surprisingly well. They both told me that the medicine isn’t labeled for this...

Oh yes, I know what it is typically used for and we got a second opinion as well. Both vets said that using ICHON off-label for luxating patella and also for arthritis is not only safe but has had good results. It’s a more affordable option. She’s basically a brand new cat since taking it, I’ve...

Faye was up until now very treat driven with the temptations treats, but turns her head up, and she doesn’t want us to love on her after the shot My vet has her on ICHON. But for the first month it’s two injections a week, second month is one a week and then it switches to monthly.

Thank you! I will use a few and see if any of these work.

Our two year old Faye has been getting shots regularly for her luxating patella and we were using treats she liked to calm her. She’s stopped accepting those and isn’t taking a liking to any new treats. We would like to have a nice treat for her to have when we have to give her the shot, and I...

I’ve always wanted a Siamese. When I got her as a foster kitten I was instintly in love. My husband knew she’d be a failure way before I’d had even admitted it to myself. Ginger is about a month younger then Cleo is and our two bigger cats are both two and four.
