Hey guys! So I noticed that Indie has been loosing hair for for the past two weeks, and when he FINALLY let me check him over yesterday, I noticed two large hard lumps under his skin. They seemed to look like blisters, but didn't look infected, and they were completely bald and kind of red. I...

Okay, so a few days ago I noticed that one o fmy ginger rescues was limping on his front paw. I gave him a homeopathic remedy (Arnica Montana 30c) an he's now as right as rain, no limp or anything. However, now another kitten (his brother, who lives downstairs with me because he's deaf, the...

Or maybe it's just bony poop? I recently took in a bunch of strays, and a few weeks ago one of them (I'm unsure which one) has started to have whitish poops. The other poops are all fine, a nice brown and firm and not too crumbly, it's just these poops that are hard and white, though the shape...

Hello, I hope this is the right place to put this! Well, I recently found out that my cat, Sparrow, is pregnant, and just recently (I'm guessing she's 4-5 weeks in) her appetite has increased. I feed all of my cats raw -- a mixture of chicken heads, chicken feet, breast, lungs, gizzards...

Okay, so trust Sparrow to give me a scare when I've already booked her spay appointment :-/ I was talking to Mum about her today, and apparently during her first heat (I'll update the post on the date this was, I've got it written in my diary somewhere) Mum heard Sparrow let out a 'shriek' and...

So, I just came back from getting Indie neutered and I have a TONNE of questions Firstly, he's kind of still in a trance like state, and when he walks it's.. as if he's forgotten to walk, if that makes sense? Is this normal, and how often should it last? His eyes seem really wide too (his...

Okay, so I haven't been on in a while, and the reason is that I've rescued a family of cats and kittens (+ one feral that I couldn't say no to..) I'll have pictures of them up soon, they're the healthiest cats I've rescued as yet! :-) Though I'm pretty sure they were abandoned by someone...

Okay so I recently found a stray kitten outside in the street and I realised that he's like... riddled with fleas? I gave him a bath with washing up liquid and I haven't seen any adults since (I washed him last night). I also dabbed a little bit of vinegar onto his fur to kill any of the others...

Okay so my Mum recently brought home one of the kittens that my cousin bred. It's a white little thing and is INCREDIBLY light and apparently it hasn't eaten for a few days (I think the Mum has stopped giving them milk too) She also recently fell into a dirty pool of water and had to have a...

I've been doing a lot of research lately and I came across the fact that some people brush their cat's teeth? I don't think that you can get specialised cat toothpaste over here, or cat toothbrushes, either? So I'm kind of worrying about what I can do to make sure Indie and Butty's teeth stay in...

One of my rescues, Cipher, died today. I rescued him about 6 months ago when he just strolled into my house when I opened the door. He was in a HORRIBLE state. He had mange and scabies all over his neck and was limping, too, it seemed. He was a long-haired cat (people mistakenly call them...

Okay so Indie's always been on the slim side of things and he's never been as chubby as any other cat -- in fact, he's one of the slimmest cat's I've ever seen! And I've seen quite a lot of cats omg I hope I'm just being my usual worrying self but is Indie /too/ thin? I'm not sure exactly how...

Okay so some of you probably know that a while ago one of my 8 week old kittens died due to unknown causes. Another one died this morning. My mum herself went to see how they were doing and she realised that one had the exact same symptoms as the other one that had died. They are already going...

I thinnnk this is the right place for this/ please re-direct me if it isn't, I'm terribly sorry! Anywhoot, summers coming up over here and I was wondering if there's any specific ways that I can keep Indie and Butty cool? It's already very stuffy and they're both spreading out on the floor a...

Alright so my 1.5 year old unneutered male has suddenly decided to start vomiting again. He alsways has been a bit of a vomiter, but this is the first bout of vomiting he's had in months! His poop's are okay as far as I know, I mean he hasn't used the litter-tray yet so I doubt he's got the...

Okay so some of you might know that I gave one of my rescue's Cipher to my cousin for his female-cat. He promised me that he'd look after them well, that he knew how to handle the kittens properly, that he would tend to them if they were injured or sick. Well he lied. And now one of the 8 week...

Alright, so I've got two cats at the moment. One's a 1.5 year old tabby (unfixed male) and the other is an 11 month old balinese (another unfixed male). They're both the best of friends and bath each other, lick each other and chase each other around the house normally! They've never fought or...

Alright, so a few months back I rescued a white, long-haired tom-cat who wondered into my house. He'd obviously been abused and neglected (he had mange and fleas and a TERRIBLE case of scabies) but, without the help of a vet (they're VERY scarce over here), I managed to get him up onto his feet...

Alright so after about a YEAR of searching, we've finally found a vet who will be willing to neuter Indie for us! He's roughly 1.5 years old now, and I was wondering what the neuter procedure is for male cats? Do the vets keep them overnight or can they be sent home the same day? Also will we be...

Okay, so, for roughly 48 hours now my 10 month old kitten, Button, has been vomiting. Sometimes he goes on for about ten minutes, and then has a 6-7 hour break, and then he'll start again. The vomit is yellow bile and there's about a tablespoon of it... after he's finished vomiting up the bile...
