Thank you for the suggestion - I will try and contact Cappy's guardian for some assistance on this! The thing is he is claustrophobic and hates being in a crate - when I initially adopted him he was indoor/outdoor and kind of ran with a feral colony (An elderly gentleman cared for him and...

Hello everyone, It has been some time since I have posted here but I decided to today because I am looking for some guidance/support. For quite some time (Since getting my first cat), I have noticed urinary issues with him - these issues were never constant or consistent but he would have bouts...

All my vet did was recommend a special prescription diet for food I can buy only at their pharmacy and supplements from their pharmacy. This is one of the reasons I think maybe a second opinion is warranted. That's what I don't understand - they ran the test for a UTI and it was negative but...

Hello all, It's been awhile since I posted here but I think the last time I posted I had posted about one of my cats urinating inappropriately as I was finding mysterious urine puddles around my house. Since then I have figured out which kitty it is, the thing is I don't know why. He is...

@Furballsmom - I was considering getting a camera awhile back but didn't end up getting one, perhaps I should get one to confirm it's the kitty I think that it actually is. I have 2 water bowls and a water fountain set up for both of them. I might move the fountain into a different room so...

@Furballsmom - Yes both boys were neutered prior to me getting them. So no issues there! I do use enzymatic cleaner, unfortunately he still hits the same exact spots - mainly the ones he hangs around a lot? We actually used to do walks just in the backyard and he loved it! Unfortunately I live...

Hi all! It's been awhile since I've posted anything here but I'm having a few issues with one of my cats at the moment and I'm not entirely sure what to do. About two years ago I adopted a kitten so my older cat wouldn't be so lonely when I left for work all day. The two disliked each other at...

Hi Everyone, Sorry for the late reply - my friend has been overseas as of late and busy with his significant other's move in so I haven't gotten a chance to ask about the cat again. All that being said, I am somewhat hesitant due to the expenses associated with a third cat. I feed my cats...

Hello all, As some may know, nearly three months ago I adopted a brand new kitten that I introduced to my resident cat. Of course the introduction was a bit rocky - cats I suppose rarely take kindly to new comers, however, I'm happy to say now that my two boys get on very well - the kitten...

@Furballsmom Yes, I'm hoping things continue to improve and so far my kitty has been doing seemingly well! @basschick The only med my vet had recommended for me to give him was FeliWay, but now reading the comments on this forum I decided to go the valerian root route instead and it has seemed...

@1 bruce 1 Wow! Three years! I’m honestly hoping I don’t have to lock the kitten up at night for that long as I feel bad about it but I do tend to favor my resident cat. He’s my baby despite his moodiness. Lol @Furballsmom I’m glad someone thinks so because I’m pretty sure my resident cat...

@Furballsmom: His pee has smelled a bit more pungent and has been less than usual, but those were the only differences I've noticed. He does get filtered water (From the same filter source I drink from) and only eats wet food. I feed him Wellness brand grain free, although when we adopted him...

Hi all, I got my resident cat into the vet ASAP as sometimes I think it's hard to tell when cats are in pain/depressed/stressed out. They are moody creatures, well, at least my resident cat is. The vet said he did not have a blockage and could tell that his bladder was empty by feeling. He...

Hello all, I know I posted awhile ago about my resident cat being very displeased with the new 13 week old kitten I introduced into the house, but now I really don't know what to do. I introduced the two slowly and separated them and allowed them to meet each other from behind the door...

Hello all, Thanks for the tips. I did read the article rubysmama and the only thing I think I need to do is maybe get a second water dish so they don’t have to share that. They do have separate food dishes. I know I have been trying to give my older cat some individual TLC but I feel bad...
