Hi, We have 3 cats and we are vegetarians (well, eggetarians). So far we've been feeding our cats (7, 7, and 3 years old) a balanced diet of packaged wet food and dry kibbles. However, we are hoping to gradually shift to home-cooked food. Chicken and fish are ok but pork and beef are a no no...

It took a day for my foster to adapt to the cone. She is okay now. Took her to the vet again yesterday. The stitches are almost dry though he asked my leave the cone on for another 3 days. Thanks to your positive energy, she is doing much better now :thanks:

Cones are awful but the one that the one I got from a nearby pet store was even worse! It had some weird hook and loop thing which wouldn't go or be removed quickly. I got another one that has velcro and that is much better. It fits her neck size better and is really easy to put on and remove...

So true! For now, she seems to have taken a shine to my wife. During the day she spends the most time with her. Today is day #2, only 5 more to go! When she starts mewing, we let her in our balcony to get some fresh air (without letting her jump since she is also freshly spayed). Then she comes...

Yes that's the plan. She again attacked the incision stitches so the cone is back on.

Thank you. With the cone on, she kept loosing her balance and she stopped eating. I raised the bowls to a height where she can eat by sitting in front of it, but she did not take to that. Since she is on antibiotics and she needs to eat well, I finally gave in and removed the cone. The vet has...

We recently came across a stray kitty with a broken tail. We started feeding her and then yesterday we finally got her operated, for the severed tail and her spaying. We are doing the post-op care for her at home since the hospital was full and didn't have space in their facility. As of now she...

A tragic update: we found his body today morning 😔 we took him to the vet before we cremated him and he is of the opinion he may have ingested something that caused poisoning. He is not lost anymore 😞

That is a good idea. Maybe I can leave the rear passenger window open but then again there is a possibility that other strays might climb in.

I hope you find her soon!

Thank you. Those are helpful tactics. I'm however not in the US and here we do not really use TNR kind of traps. We are in an apt (2nd floor) and even though it is possible for him to climb into the apt, I'm unsure if he knows that that is an option. For now we've kept one of my wife's tees in...

Thank you! This is very upsetting for me and especially my wife because she really adores him! I hope you find yours soon too.

We rescued a kitten about a year ago. He has been with us since and my wife and he are both very fond of each other. Yesterday evening, the outer door to my apt was unlocked and I did not realize that. When my eldest boy wanted to sit by the door, I opened the inside door and let him sit there...

I've rarely seen him yowl! And he is very content when we aren't there :) With us being at home, we've been keeping an eye on his eating and playing, etc. Nothing unusual there. Maybe dust? One factor I missed - We rescued a stray kitty just before the lockdown started. The kitten and my cat...

Just noticed yesterday that my cat Scout is meowing very hoarsely. Almost like croaking. The day before he threw up a little. Today his voice is completely gone. He is eating and drinking water just like he used to. No change in that. He is lethargic but we do live in a tropical country. I...

I thought I'd post an update on this. After two months of trying to get them acquainted on our own, we finally gave up and sought professional help. We are currently boarding the two of them with a professional animal behaviorist. So far they seem to be doing a great job. She sent us pictures of...

I actually liked the detailed reply :) It really helps and you took the time to really understand my challenge and help me with it. I appreciate that. :thanks:

Thank you for that detailed answer. I really appreciate it. I really want them to get along. Our next-door neighbor also has a Calico and my boy loves playing with her. Surprisingly they hit it off right in the beginning. We did not have to go through this introduction process. One day my boy...

We used to feed a stray cat for almost a year. After a lot of complaints from other residents, we finally adopted her and took her in. We also have another cat that we had rescued about 3 years ago. We are facing a few problems getting the two acquainted. Both are fixed and the stray is more...

Hi, unfortunately, no :( I even called a local rescue organization but they were not able to catch it too. I have not seen him since then. It looks like it may have moved away. I see the mom every now and then though.
