Yeah I think he likes stinky stuff. We have a different trash can than the ones in the article you showed me so I think I'll look into getting one of those! I'll be moving in a couple months with both my boys coming with me so I'll make sure to get a trash can they can't get into! His...

Update: The vet says that he's ok. no anemia or anything(thank goodness). I moved the litterbox and put a covered bed there and he likes that. I even gave him a couple extra boxes to play in and he seems to really enjoy it. I still do catch him rooting in the trash or sleeping in it but I...

Yeah, it's a covered litterbox. We have two or three covered litterboxes and the rest are uncovered. He seems to have taken a liking to a particular litterbox. The only case of a grubby cat I've ever dealt was was like yours, a feral who liked rolling in puddles and in general, being gross...

I have two cats that I've had for about a year and recently one of them started sleeping in the litterbox. I work with lots of cats so I'm used to strange behavior but this one has me stumped. I found him and his brother as babies drenched with no mom(their eyes were still blue even) and...

That's good to hear! He's gonna start playing and getting teeth soon! I had been a bit worried since kittens are fragile but I'm glad he's doing wonderful!

How is the little kitten doing now? Hopefully he's doing ok!

Please keep us updated on the little guy! It'll be tough since he went without food for so long but I'm happy to hear that he's perked up. Watch out for URIs, those can make a kitten go downhill really fast. As long as he is eating now and staying warm, there is hope. :hearthrob:

Are you trying to get into breeding? You should do some research first and if not, you should have both cats spayed/neutered. Kittens can be a lot of work and there's already a ton out there as is. Also, if they get sick(or the entire litter does which can happen) it might be expensive to...

Euthenizing an animal can be hard for anybody and many do feel guilty as if they made the wrong decision. I had to put a kitten down a few months ago and felt that way but in the end, there weren't many options, or any that would help the little guy for that matter, so with the advice of the...

If you don't neuter them, think of all the horrible smelling spraying you'll have to deal with. And the fighting and yowling that may ensue. Even if though they are brothers, they may still fight. Also, if one gets out on accident and meets a female and mates, her kittens will be adding to...

I had a cat like this once and he just had 0 interest in it. We didn't really have any available females but he wouldn't spray, mount anything, or battle for territory like a normal unneutered tom would. The few times he was around an unspayed female he wanted to wrestle instead! It could be...

I have very bad news. We took him in to do the enema and during that time the vet couldn't figure out why he wasn't becoming unblocked so she did an x-ray. He was so full of poop that his entire abdomen was taken over by it and it was pushing further upward toward his heart. Basically, it was...

He's so stuffed up he's losing his appetite. He is active and happy otherwise so he has an appointment for the vet tomorrow. He'll probably get an enema but after that we'll put olive in his food for awhile after so to maybe sort his system out. Let's hope all he needs is a good poop and...

At this point he is almost completely weaned. He still argues about getting kmr so we were advised to give him watered down kmr a couple times a day. Other than that, he gets solids. He's eating enough but I'm not sure how to gauge if he's eating too fast. I live in the U.S so there's some...

I will contact the vet tomorrow and ask about deworming and maybe see if they can take a second look at him. Hopefully there will be something they can do and he isn't too stuffed to poo at this point. Maybe he just needs a good deworming since I assume the worms don't always show up during...
