Recently, around the beginning of December my boy (2 years old as of November) has been having some urinary issues. I first noticed he was struggling to urinate because he would squat in the litter box, but not much came out. Then he would immediately jump out of the box and lick himself down...
The picture attached is recent, from last Wednesday and they seem to still be there. I looked at some older pictures and it looks like they've always been there, and didn't just suddenly occur. Are they just veins or could it be something to be worried about?
When we first got him November of last year, a few months after we caught him trying to nibble on our two yorkshire terrier's food. That did not happen often and I would always pick him up and bring him to his food when I caught him doing it. I was a little concerned, but since it wasn't...
My cat has been mostly tolerating and keeping on his new collar we got for him before we moved a couple weeks ago and I have a sticker of his microchip code attached to it but I also wanted my number on it to be extra safe so, since I knew he hates the noisy ID tags and I couldn't purchase a non...
I have made a post about this before but it is still happening and I'd like more insight..
My cat is indoor only but is very hyper at certain times during the day so I suspect when he's doing something like running up behind the plastic blinds the edges of the blinds scratch his face. Or could...
I was using the Catit flower fountain for a while, but then I just started filling plates with gallon spring water as it was easier and I could keep it fresh by just pouring out the old water and pouring new water in once in the morning and once at night. But then I came across the Drinkwell...
Gizmo a few times a day likes to run around the house and look out of the blinds but I've been seeing these little scratches on his face and head. I'm wondering if when he's running up behind the blinds the plastic scratches him. How do I clean it and should I put any neosporin on it? I just...
So.. I've been on and off with trying to leash train my adult cat Gizmo. He was not a kitten when we got him so we couldn't introduce it to him young. I have two figure 8 type harnesses that he doesn't really take kindly too, so I wanted to try an H type harness/or a "walking jacket" type...
Like I mentioned in my last thread, we are moving into a new apartment soon (in two months, around september 30th) and I'm really worried about how Gizmo will react. I've done my research and plan on getting a Feliway plugin for the my bathroom at the new apartment and will keep him and some of...
Well, it's not really door darting, it's more like door walking. Just today when my mom was taking the dogs for a walk, my mom opened the door to bring the dogs back in and Gizmo walked out of the door. He's only done this once before. He's never ran or darted towards the door and he doesn't...
Right now I'm kind of in a tough situation regarding cat safe cleaning products.
First off, we have two small dogs who unfortunately are not neutered and were not properly potty trained at a young age.. We got them when I was 6 and 7 years old, so of course I did not know then what I know now...
Here recently I've been trying to convert from things that could be toxic to cats like your standard Febreeze air freshener, to safer things like using natural wax melts in a wax warmer. Now of course my mom is still using paraffin wax in her wax warmer, but I'm trying my best to convert her as...
When we first got my cat Gizmo we noticed he was doing what we thought was just coughing up a hairball, but nothing actually came out. (note that he is short haired so I don't think he'd be consuming large amounts of hair). He kept doing this wheeze-cough-like thing at least once a month...
The litter box we have now is your standard cheap litter box that does have a lid. This is the first litter box we ever got our cat and he hasn't had any problems with it, so we've continued using it. This litter box was in my room for a while until I started spazzing up my room, trying to make...
Ive been highly considering getting a Himalayan salt lamp lately, but I'm worried my cat would start licking it and consume more salt than he's supposed to. Is there any way to tell if your cat likes to eat/lick salt or not to kind of indicate whether or not he would be interested in licking a...
I'm very new to this website, so I'm sure I'm not doing this right. I've also never been a part of a forum type website. But, I was looking for a popular cat related forum website to possibly get some insight/help on a problem I'm having.
The problem has to do with my cat Gizmo and collars...
