    Spay incision redness

    Hey guys, my kitten Zoe (5 months ish) was spayed Monday. She is eating, acting, pooping etc normal. I just caught her licking the adhesive on her belly ... there’s one spot of redness and the glue is a bit crusty. I’m going to call the vet and send pics first thing tomorrow but does this look...

    14 wk old kitten acting weird after first vaccine- disoriented, slow blinks

    spoke to my vet today and she wants to hold all vaccines now because of it... personally I’m fine with that! I’d rather just get her spayed and not do anything else.

    14 wk old kitten acting weird after first vaccine- disoriented, slow blinks

    She ate a few kibble that night and then the next day was acting normal again. I do think I’m going to consider it a reaction and request an alternate vaccine- I’m hoping the vet does not argue or say she can’t get it though. I would much rather not deal with killed vaccines.

    14 wk old kitten acting weird after first vaccine- disoriented, slow blinks

    Hey all, so my kitten is 14wks (ish- my husband found her in a dumpster), female, named Zoe, and after having a weight check today she was given her first vaccine... Now, first off, my vet said she only uses killed vaccines... which I really wasn’t looking for, but she assured me she rarely...

    How does your cat wake you up

    Bailey and Zoe don’t wake me... they sit quietly in the hall waiting... Gambit on the other hand.... jumps up onto my chest- all 16 lbs of him- then YOWLS in my face. If I don’t crack an eye... then he starts swatting my face WITH HIS CLAWS OUT. If I still stay asleep or dare to fall back...

    Sensitive stomach dry food... ToTW prey? Instinct? Or Farmina...

    He’s just ridiculous. It’s constant. He hates not seeing me. We talked about cbd but are holding off until we get b levels and the dental etc. Today we finally had soft poo but FORMED, which is eons better than the pudding consistency and the pure liquid of before. So hopefully that means the...

    Sensitive stomach dry food... ToTW prey? Instinct? Or Farmina...

    I’m definitely losing my mind over his teeth. He’s my baby! Gonna try a little Farmina and cross my fingers. He always seems to do well with lamb, and I have to order his firstmate now-ish anyway. Seriously the amount of $ I spend on these guys... (he’s allergic to most litter too!)- I wish I...

    Sensitive stomach dry food... ToTW prey? Instinct? Or Farmina...

    The vet suggested the Farmina lamb. But told me other options would be fine. She seems really good with raw and healthy canned but the dry did throw me for a loop. She just suggested against certain brands and against an RX dry

    Sensitive stomach dry food... ToTW prey? Instinct? Or Farmina...

    I’ll try to type this and get all the questions answered before a kid or a cat interrupts.. 😂 Bailey will restrain himself if the food is in the catit digger. We went on vacation for 2 days and my sister in law was surprised that they actually left some of the LID in there. He is a food stealer...

    Sensitive stomach dry food... ToTW prey? Instinct? Or Farmina...

    Her theory, which I’ll certainly try at least a few months, is that his diarrhea might be related to eating frequency. While ideally I would do wet multiple times I’m simply not available for that, but the majority of his diet is still going to be wet. I can’t leave out raw... he gets diarrhea...

    Sensitive stomach dry food... ToTW prey? Instinct? Or Farmina...

    So I have 3 cats. Gambit, 11, is an allergy cat with IBD. Bailey, 3, eats anything. And Zoe, 3 months. My issue is this- they eat canned twice a day together (Zoe gets 4 wet meals), FirstMate turkey or salmon&rice, or instinct LID turkey (the kitten does not get this one). My vet wants me to...

    What Are Your Cats Doing Right Now?

    Very stylishly cleaning his big belly. (He’s a horse of a cat- not actually fat). I have no idea where the others are lol

    Realized that I never introduced myself+ new kitten 🐱

    Bailey adores back rides. Gambit loves shoulder cuddles but as soon a I pick up Bailey and goes right to my neck and back! I really love the personality of black and whites- they are nosy and loud and so unique. Gambit at the shelter was the “water cat”- he would dash through the cat area and...

    Realized that I never introduced myself+ new kitten 🐱

    Hi! Long time cat lady here! My first cat came home when I was 3 yrs old and I’ve never been without a Kitty since. I’m 32, and live in NY (on the island) with my SO and 2 kids. We share our space with 3 floofs. Floof 1 is Gambit who is a tuxedo shelter rescue and 11 yrs old. He was adopted as a...

    Show Me Your Stripes And Spots! Tabby Cats Only ;)

    One of the former ferals “Stellaluna”- he has a gorgeously long tail. And that’s his mama in the back (she’s the one feral not fixed- she’s horrible to catch)

    Kitten food

    I was actually coming to ask something similar! I have a new kitten (she was found in a dumpster) and she is between 8 and 10 weeks. She eats fancy feast classic (my 3yo eats this as well) but also likes to nibble the instinct LID canned turkey that my older boy eats. It’s labeled as adult cat...

    Duck Vital Essentials Calorie Q

    Hey all! So my pain in the butt dude, Gambit, has had constant stomach issues lately and after a check up we have decided to go back to a duck diet. I would like to do Vital Essentials raw duck mini patties because they worked well before but I have a question about the calories and...

    Show Me Your Stripes And Spots! Tabby Cats Only ;)

    Here’s our beautiful boy who passed away 4 weeks ago. He was 17. A complete and total brat who peed on both my children when they were infants, but we love him! He had a very peaceful passing at home with a hospice vet.

    Are these decent canned foods? I’m ordering off chewy and overthinking it all.

    I posted yesterday asking about epigen/Elsey etc and then after spending hours googling I settled on Elsey which is currently out of stock on chewy and I’m on quarantine so.... I’m thinking of doing tiki born carnivore as we slowly switch from fussie cat market fresh. Then eventually I’ll have...
