We have 2 9 year old Persian brothers and I had to put one down today. I love cats much more than people so I’m pretty upset over it. I know this is common and prob lot of threads about it so I’m sorry. He was just so sweet and cute and loving. I just hope his brother will be ok without him. I’m...
We gave our cat advantage but didn’t think it was working too great so we gave it to him again 2 weeks later. We also have frontline but I’m not sure if it’s ok to give it to him only 2 weeks after the 2nd advantage dose. I’m also doing the normal things to take care of the infestation in the...
Ok update, he stopped doing it and it’s been 3 days without any cough or hack at all. The only constant I can think of is I was giving him some catnip every day or other day for awhile and stopped a few days ago. Could that have been a corrolation and reason to trigger his behavior?
My Himalayan Persian male has been making this noise lately. Kind of a quacking, coughing, hacking sound, like when a cat is gonna barf up a hairball but he hasn’t been hacking any up lately, he just makes the noise. He has appeared fine other than that, he is eating and drinking. We have given...
My cats don’t scratch the couch, that’s not a problem, the issue is their claws can dig into certain sections when they relax or rest on it. Certain areas like the top on one arm and a corner, places like that rather than the whole couch. I don’t want to deter them from being in the couch, I...
Just to give a final update here, my little guy made a full recovery after only a couple days. I also want to remark how incredible a cats self cleaning routine is. When we found his bleeding it was very alarming, like a murder scene. Bright red, messy undercarriage, I was anticipating giving...
Yea we are getting a diffuser. Might be an odd question but are Diffuser pheromones whatever a real thing? Sounds a bit like magic crystals and essential oils to me, I have a strong BS detector. Just making sure it’s not one of those “it works if you believe it” things.
Update: The urinalysis came back to find no sign of infection. This leads to believe is Cystitis, a condition that inflames the bladder. This is cause party due to stresses of being the second cat in the house where the dominant cat likes to bully him sometimes. I feel terrible about it but at...
Thank you very much. He is drinking his water but not eating yet, will try ASAP tomorrow, we have special food for him from the vet. Just going day by day, I need to see him eat so we can give him the medicine. I will update.
Today we awoke to find some blood trickling from our 6yr old Persian/himy make kitty. Upon inspection we found it was coming from his penis, a slow trickle but steady. We took him to the doc and after numerous tests etc we got sent home with a few different meds and pills. He’s home and seems...
Yea he will do that sometimes but it’s the times where he growls and yowls that is alarming. It’s just strange how he can go from butt sniffing and hanging out normally to growling and yowling the next.
This is something that I have suspected, that he is just being a jerk and a bit of a weirdo. Still it’s just a bit off putting. Like he might just walk up, give a quick growl then walk away. Or he might swat at him with no noise and walk away, or claw the ground in front of him. Kind of like a...
My cats used to fight but got over it. Now the aggressor hisses and growls at the other but only on and off. It’s not a typical situation where they can’t be in same room. They usually are fine together, eat, sleep, play just fine. But sometimes he will flip a switch like Jekyll and Hyde and...
Update to post #30. After a week and 2 days, Cat A went back to normal and the two brothers are friends again. This lasted a week or more and all was normal. Cuddling, grooming, playing normally etc. Then today randomly cat A was again aggressive, growling all over again. I separated them me...
I too have had a situation that is causing me stress. 2 brothers, age 2-3, fixed, lived together in harmony for couple years. We went on vacation, as we have before with no problems. This time we come back and Older cat A is aggressive with cat B and hiss/growl. It's been a week and they can be...
