Yes! I have had pets before with tape worms but it was the small segments that move. Strangely enough I have never see those in the litter box. I looked it up on Google (I know I know!) and I see it does happen sometimes with a long piece of work. I’m assuming it died and came out. So gross! But...
We took in a semi feral/skittish stray that had been on the streets for around 4 years. She’s been having a bloated stomach that feels hard to the touch. I just found a very long tapeworm coming out of her after she used the litter box. She’s got a vet appointment tomorrow but I was just...
Shes not really hiding but she will spend some of her time under my bed which is fine. She usually comes out when I walk in and will greet me and want pets. But she still is not very fond of my husband so that’s mainly when she will hide. I guess what I mean is that I don’t know if she will just...
I tried switching to canned and she is sooo picky. I still haven’t found one she will eat. I’ve tried the different textures and kinds but she doesn’t seem interested. It’s also strange because I never really see her eating a ton or anything like that unless she is doing it while I am asleep. I...
Hey everyone! I caught my semi feral cat Salem around thanksgiving and she has done amazing adjusting to being an indoor cat. My only problem I am having is she has put on a lot of weight since taking her inside. I had been free feeding her because she does still hide sometimes and I don’t think...
Here she is when I first started feeding her. So she’s never been a skinny cat by any means (been eating out of my trash for years without me knowing) but definitely fatter than before. Also when she was outside there were two other cats and a couple opossums and raccoons she had to share with...
Now that you mention it she has gotten bigger since I brought her inside. I looked at the pictures of her when I was feeding her outside and she’s always been a little chunky but her belly is definitely bigger now. She’s been inside now since the weekend before thanksgiving so maybe she’s put on...

Hi! I just recently brought in a semi feral kitty who had been roaming my neighborhood for several years and she is doing great! She’s been to the vet and had her vaccines and was tested for felv/fiv etc and also tested negative for parasites. I’ve noticed recently that her belly is so big! She...
Just a little update on my sweet Salem! She has started venturing into the living room every few days and when I go into my bedroom/her room she greets me each time and asks for attention. My orange boy has befriended her but they still don’t get too close to each other. My other two are still...
Thanks so much everyone for your reassuring posts! She is doing soooooo good! She pretty much hangs out on her cat tree all day now and never hides anymore. I’m slowly introducing her to my other cats and she is so kind and patient with them. They are still a little unsure but have not been...
Feeling a little defeated the past couple of days :/ I’ve had the bathroom door open to the bedroom and I think she’s left maybe a couple of times. She’s definitely nervous about it. She literally sleeps all day in her hidey house so I don’t know if since I’m in the room at night she doesn’t...
Yesterday she finally ventured into my bedroom and got up on the cat tree 🥰 she hasn’t done it since but I know she’s still adjusting and it may take a while.
Update!
She is safe inside!I ended up setting a trap and caught her pretty much as soon as I set it down with the tuna inside. There was another cat starting to bully her and run her off so I figured I needed to act fast. She was obviously scared in my bathroom the first day but came out of her...
