    Adopted new kitten

    Hi all! Back again. I’ve noticed on occasion, my big cat will be wrestling with her and bite her stomach and she yelps. Especially when she’s in “his spot” on one of the cat trees. The other day I actually couldn’t get him off her for a minute. She’ll then run under the bed, but 5 minutes later...

    Adopted new kitten

    Thank you. I’ve never had 2 before, so I’m unsure what would be normal play. I just hate seeing that look in his eyes when I know he’s about to run and pounce. But you’re right. If she was stressed or didn’t like it, we’d know.

    Adopted new kitten

    I’m getting kind of nervous because it’s like he thinks the kitten is a small wild animal. He runs after her, chases her down, snd I see his mouth around her back and she yelps. He’ll chase her out of the cat tree so she can’t sit there. But she keeps going back to sit on the tree and do the...

    Adopted new kitten

    Thanks everyone. She stayed under the bed for a while, but it back out playing. I’m just keeping an eye on them. When my tuxedo saw her running, he jumped out of top of the cat tree, over a table and almost landed on her. But now he’s just licking her all over. I think I’m going to have to...

    Adopted new kitten

    Well, I’m back. It was going great for about a week. The kitten was running around, playing with resident kitty. All seemed fine until yesterday. My resident cat is all of the sudden chasing her down every time he sees her, eats her food even though it’s far away from his, and is overall...

    Adopted new kitten

    They were pretty ok, but woke up really early and are chasing each other around making so much noise. I bet my downstairs neighbor loves that. Hopefully it will get a little better, but I’m probably going to get a noise complaint from my building manager. We have carpeting, but the soundproofing...

    Adopted new kitten

    This will be the first night with both cats out and able to roam. I’m a little nervous, but hopefully they won’t get into any trouble! My bed is too high for the kitten to jump on, so I put a bench next to it for her to use. I don’t know if she’ll want to sleep with me, but the tuxedo does. I’m...

    Adopted new kitten

    Thank you! My tuxedo is eating a little less just because I think it’s still new for him. He gets very nervous over anything new in the house. Boxes, toys, if you move something to a different place. It takes him a while to warm up to something then he’s fine. By the way as soon as I posted...

    Adopted new kitten

    Hi all! I have a 3 yr old male tuxedo and recently adopted a 3 month old black female kitten. The introductions went well I believe. My male doesn’t seem to be bothered, but he’s very curious. He’ll just lay next to her or watch her from afar. They’ll chase after each other, but I see no signs...

    Lethargic after shots

    I had to take my cat to the vet last night for a possible ear infection. He was not thrilled about the Dr cleaning and fussing with his ears. He also needed his rabies and distemper shots so they did that as well. It’s been over 24 hrs and he’s still lying around and lethargic. Barely has...

    Sore on back on cat’s leg

    Thank you! I think it appears a little darker than before, but I’ll keep an eye on it. He’s about a year and a half. I adopted him after my cat died suddenly. She was only 7 and out of nowhere I noticed a lump on her side. Vet said it was cancer and there was nothing they could do. She was gone...

    Sore on back on cat’s leg

    Hi all, i noticed this on the back of my cat’s leg. It doesn’t seem to bother him and it’s not bleeding or oozing. I asked my aunt who runs an animal rescue and she said to just watch it. What are your thoughts?

    Going to vet today

    I’ll try that as well. The vet said he seems well hydrated, not constipated, and very healthy. This is only my second cat and my first one got sick and died very suddenly. I always felt like I missed signs or could have done something. So I’m extra observant to any changes now so I can get it...

    Going to vet today

    I said he gets into everything and threw up an earplug a couple weeks ago. The vet just said there’s really nothing wrong in his opinion. I’m sure he’s seen thousands and thousands of cats in his 85 years so I’m confident he knows what he’s talking about. I’ll just keep an eye on him and call...

    Going to vet today

    Update! I left with more questions than answers I think. I’ll start off by saying my vet is about 80 years old and very very well respected in my town. He asked how I knew my cat wasn’t pooping. Obviously I said there’s nothing in the litterbox and my apt is so small, I would notice if he was...

    Going to vet today

    That’s my worry. He literally chews and eats everything. I don’t know why. I guess he could have gotten a hold of pretty much anything. My friend is the vet tech and they’re extremely busy, but she got me in so we’re waiting now. Hopefully it’s nothing too serious!

    Going to vet today

    Update on my 1 year old boy’s constipation. He had loose stools on Thursday night/Fri morning and nothing since then. I’ve tried all suggestions I’ve gotten here and elsewhere and still nothing. He’s been acting completely fine though. He’s still eating/drinking, running around like a maniac...

    Constipation

    Hi all. I posted here a while ago about my 1 yr old boy has been having trouble with constipation. He goes about every other day and I can tell it’s a little difficult. Per the vet tech advice, I took away his dry food and have only been giving him wet the past few days mixed with extra water...
