    TICA scoring questions

    Hello! It's been a while since I've shown in TICA and I forgot some stuff about points so can anyone help me with some questions? I was helping a friend show her HHP cat for the first time today, today and I told her I'd help her calculate the points. So my questions-- If there are less than 20...

    How contagious is FelV-- chance of infection?

    They have another cat in the house too in addition to the kitten, he's a senior and I'm not sure if he has been vaccinated... The cat who has FelV is only staying with them temporarily. I told them they should separate them but I don think they have. :(

    eosinophilic granuloma complex

    I have several cats with eosinophilic granuloma complex. Unfortunately in their case it seems to be genetic to some extent since they are littermates and have the same issue. Also unfortunately I haven't been able to figure out the cause, most likely they are allergic to both environmental...

    How contagious is FelV-- chance of infection?

    A friend of mine recently got a new kitten. The kitten was under-sized and sickly (full of worms) when they got her. She's been wormed though and is growing slowly. She's about 12-16 weeks old now. Recently they have had another new cat (adult) join them and this cat is positive for FelV. My...

    Is this kitten a Maine coon or dmh tabby?

    Looks like a DMH to me, going by how my Maine Coon and her siblings looked at that age.

    TNR-- but cat may be spayed? Also will she hate me after?

    There is a feral cat who hangs out on my porch all the time. I would like to get her in to a vet, and do TNR but she is missing part of one ear and I think it could be an "ear tip" so she possibly was already spayed? Is there a way to tell for sure? The thing is I've never seen another "ear...

    Anyone using Atopica?

    Yes, this is exactly what I do. This works so much better because my cat absolutely hated the taste of the liquid Atopica. I found flavored empty capsules made for cats (called CatCaps) so I've been using that since it masks the taste better. For those who are concerned about the gelatin...

    Are there pills or chewables for parasites?

    I was wondering if anyone knows if there are any chewables/treats or pills that can be given to a cat to prevent parasites (fleas/ticks or others)? I know there are some for dogs but I wasn't sure about for cats. I am asking because there's a feral cat who hangs out on my porch just outside...

    What can I do for itching?

    Does anyone know any products that can be applied to wounds that help with itching? My cat Spot had a really bad eosinophilic granuloma (aka lick granuloma) on his lower stomach- well actually he had several. He was on Atopica before but had some "off" bloodwork results and surgery so my vet...

    Why does he chew off his leg whiskers?

    My cat Mr Grey has EGC/allergies but they've been mostly under control with Atopica(without it he chews his ankles raw in back). But he still keeps chewing the whisker pads on his front legs so the whiskers there are chewed off! I don't know why since he doesn't chew the rest when he's on the...

    Cat litter for asthmatics

    Which type of walnut litter was it? I've heard some are more dusty than others. Which Dr Elsey's, was it the respiratory one? I was thinking maybe something like this might work? http://tengrits.livejournal.com/5817.html There is also a commercial litterbox like this but it's pretty expensive...

    Black Cats Only

    This was my family's first cat Sylvia(RIP). She always reminded me of a black leopard, with her long body and thick tail.
