    Cat's Skin Has Many Red Spots And He Seems Itchy (pictures)

    Hello everyone, My cat has developed these red spots on his belly and head (between the ears and eyes). Furthermore, he has "black hair" under his chin.

    Cat has missing claws, what should I do next?

    Ok so today I noticed my cat has a few nails missing on his back feet. Yesterday he had them and today he doesn't. He's using the litterbox, he's jumping, not showing absolutely any sign of discomfort until touched. Even I feel hurt when I see him jumping like that. But when I push his paw to...

    Any decorating suggestions for the Holimeow Season?

    This will be my first Holiday Season with cats inside. I'm sure they'd just kick the tree down if I put it up. Anyone got any tips, suggestions etc for decorating the home, etc? How do you do it yourself? Do your balls of fur mess with it, etc?

    How do I switch from clay to crystal litter, from open to closed litterbox?

    With winter coming we have to change some litterbox routines because we will not heat the whole house and we do not want the cat to stay on the cold side of the house. We will obviously have to keep the doors shut for heat to stay in the heated rooms. Currently the cat's litterbox is on the area...

    Calcium deficiency and kitten teeth?

    I have two questions. 1. So my kittens may have calcium deficiency, the vet didn't think so but he judged based on the calcium that's supposed to be in the commercial food. I think the way they walk is weird. Their back legs are not as straight as you'd expect them to be. How can I give them...

    He is almost 4 months old, he only eats wet kitten food. He doesn't eat dry food, he doesn't eat raw or cooked meats, or bones, or anything...even with the wet food he is hesitant because clearly he doesn't like it.

    Ok so before this sounds weird, I know it is supposed to smell. But in comparison to other cats, his smells a lot.
