Thanks for the advice everyone I appreciate it. When you're at your ropes end with a cat it's hard to find an immediate solution because there really isn't one. So living with an unpredictable cat is a sure way to test a person's patience! I called an animal behavioral specialist and am...

Well last night she stayed in the bathroom all night with food, water, and her litterbox. She was very upset when I let her out this morning. I closed my bedroom door and turned up the cushions on the couch just in case. She is out to roam free today while I'm at work but tonight she'll go...

Ok, if anyone has any ideas please help me! I'll make this as brief as possible. I've had my cat for about 2.5 years. She's an all indoor cat with no claws front and back. I don't know her history, she was this way when I adopted her through and Animal Aid. She was the best thing for about...

They have done a urinalysis but no ultrasound, x-rays, or blood tests. They wanted to wait until her 4 week medication was completely out of her system first. Then he suggested we due a bacteria culture to find out if this is even a UTI. I'm just worried about the cost of all these and I...

Well here I am back again and it's late February. My cat STILL has a UTI, or so they think. I've switched vets and he is trying to rule out a UTI. She just finished up a 4 week dose of medicine and as soon as she went off it she wet on the bed again. I can't believe this. $700 later (other...

When I first got my cat she barfed at least 1-2 times a day. I took her in for worm treatment, shots, etc. and she still got sick. I tried a variety of foods and I finally found one where it didn't make her sick. Iams. Ever since then she's only gotten sick a few times, mostly just...

Oh my gosh that site is horrible! How sad to see in reality what that actually does. I adopted my cat just a little over a year ago through an animal aid and she has no claws on all four feet. I have no idea who did this to her and then dumped her on the streets with no defense what-so-ever...

I had the same terrible experience with pills when my cat was sick and luckily I've found a super easy way! Get a non needle syringe (vets will have them), fill about 1/2" with wet cat food, stick the pill in, fill it another 1/2" with wet cat food, get your cat, grab the back of it's neck...

Well i took her in and found out she does have another infection. I got her the antibiotics necessary to clear it up. They make her sleepy so she has been sleeping around the house all day. The vet said that she should be on a low magnesium diet for the rest of her life, preferably a diet...

Hi, I'm unsure whether or not my cat is simply urinating on my bed out of spite or if she truly does have an infection. The first time she did this (very abnormal) I took her to the vet immediately the following morning when I could get in. They did a urine test and sure enough she had an...
