I have about an 8 week old kitten (rescue so exact age unknown). Took for a vet check. Was dewormed 2/21. Vet said had coccidia and diarrhea. Put him on meds. Called vet since he struggles to defecate and is now not eating. Put him on an appetite stimulant/vitamin. He has only had one dose of...

Thank you everyone. Meet Cricket.

Thank you for your reply and offer but I did locate one about 2 hours round trip. They could not even find any inflammation. Though she did mew as they played around with it. They said most likely a small pull or sprain. Some ice about 10 mins a couple times a day will make sure it does not...

I rescued a wee little kitten that someone had dumped on the highway outside my work a week ago. The vet checked her out, but she is too young for shots. He wanted to wait for a dewormer since she was a bit traumatized and underweight. She is scheduled for her dewormer next week. This morning...

My poor wee Miagi passed away late last night. It happened so quickly. Had kept him warm with a heating pad, managed to get some chicken broth into him, kept up with the Pedialyte and he improved. Was responsive, purring when cuddled and not acting at all like he was in pain. Then, less than a...

He was your baby and there is no proper way to feel. I am currently on vigil with a very ill 5 month old and am in tears fearing if he'll make it. We love them and we grieve when we lose them. As it should be, no matter how others who don't understand our bond may think. Give yourself time to...

Thank you so much.

I am so sorry for you loss. It is sad fact of life that we usually outlive our beloved pets. Know that it is alright to grieve. He was a part of your family and don't let anyone tell you "he was just a cat" or make you feel as if you shouldn't grieve for him.

I recently was asked to foster a 6 week old kitten, who we named Blizzard. We had him four days and all was well but upon waking up on day 5, he was unresponsive. Rushed him to the vet and he had liver failure. Had been playing, eating, drinking and fine only 24 hours prior. Now, my little...

Used Frontline with success years ago but when I adopted two kittens that turned out to be flea infested (cats are indoor only so no issues prior) it did not work at all. I switched the cats to Advantage II and that works for them. Once the pup came, Frontline did nothing for her either. They...

Awww Congratulations to you and your kitty Mom. You both did great! Very happy all went well.

Keep us updated when you can!!! Hope all is well with your new kitty Mom.

Cats have their own things at times. I adopted two from a hoarder situation that I have now had for 3 years and one of them just last month finally came to me for pets. It wasn't that he did not like us or anything, he was just very unsure about human touch. The petting can sometimes...

Awww good luck! Although nervous bet you are excited to see the new arrivals.

Well you're doing quite well. You've taken her in, given her all she needs and a nice quiet place for her to bring her babies into the world. Other than checking in on her from time to time, nature needs to do the rest. Keep us updated! and hoping all goes smooth for you and your new kitty.

I hope you will let us know how things progress.

Yeah I would get a 2nd opinion if only so you know how far along she is and have a better idea of when to expect the new kittens. Also, they will make sure everything is good now since she seems to have gotten skinny. I would also check the room she is in very well to make sure she did not give...

Okay well it sounds like she is just not quite there yet. If she is friendly towards you two and trusts you , most likely she will meow and seek your attention when she is in actual labor. The majority of cat births go off without a hitch so don't worry too much. If the vet said 7-8 weeks that...

Alright so I have a few questions. You said she is a stray, was pregnancy confirmed by a vet? I ask because there are conditions that can mimic pregnancy. Is she feral? Or is she friendly? I know you are already nervous, but I ask because ferals sometimes when confined do not feel safe and...

The vet had seen the pup and asked what I used and when. He said it was alright to go ahead with the advantage ii on the pup. All the animals appear to be flea free now. Yay! Working today but tomorrow we conquer the house!
