I wished I had listen to you. My cat's fine; but I took him to a new vet and the cost for a "tummy ache" was $900!
This was a VETERINARY clinic NOT a HOSPITAL. I can't trust their level of care. For example, the vet gave him pain medication. She couldn't explain to me why......considering...
My cat threw up a hairball on Sunday morning (a small one). I checked the litter box to see if he pooped. He didn't; so I fed him some pumpkin to help get things moving. The last few days no vomiting or pooping; but he was his active self. Last night, he became a little lethargic and I...
I feed wet and dry cat food. The wet food is Fancy Feast. No she still poops outside of the litterbox; I think it's more behavioral as she never done that before. (She had 7 teeth removed and that may have triggered the behavior).
This issue started happening for the last few months...
Both my cats were 2 when I got them insurance. I pay $480 (about $40 per month) for the entire year for both cats; plus I have a rehab rider. (That I'm going to remove.)
Just a little background about my cat. Missy is about 3 years. Had to have 7 teeth removed back in 2020; started pooping in front of her litterbox. Also at one point of time; we thought she had some sort of GI cancer; because her calcium levels were unusually high in 2019. It was the dry cat...
I had the same issue and bought my cats the automatic laser toy on chewy. I turn it on twice at night; maybe 30 minutes before I go to bed and then again 5 minutes before. Calms them and they leave me alone for the night.
Also, I trained them to stay awake from 8p - 10p; which also helps.
Sorry for the late reply. I believe it's harder than usual at first; recently it was a soft stool. However, I have a vet appt this Wednesday to see if there's anything medical. If not, I'm going to put a feliway in the bathroom to deter the behavior.
Hello,
I have two cats - Buddy and Missy. One of them started pooping outside of the litterbox in the last week and a half. The poops are solid. Also I try to catch the culprit. But anytime I'm around they both will poop in the box during the day. However, when I'm sleeping and wake up the...
Buddy will be 3 years old next month. When I first got him, he was neutered and it was confirmed by the vet. When I first got him I noticed that he would tried to hump his sister that lasted all of two weeks and I haven't had an issue since then.
Well in the last two weeks, I noticed that he...
I have two cats Buddy and Missy. Yesterday I had Buddy's teeth clean and he had two teeth removals. Buddy is a naturally affectionate cat so when he came home he was high as a kite and affectionate. No biggie.
Because I had to pay attention to Buddy, outside of feeding Missy, I didn't pay...
Just giving an update:
Missy's GI panel came back normal. Now the vet wants to do a biopsy so I'm going to find a hospital to do that part. However, I don't understand the need for a GI panel if a biopsy needed to be done anyways.
Daftcat75 the vet does want to start my cat on steroids. I...
