I posted a little while ago about my cat having chylothorax and he is having surgery for it tomorrow. It's quite extensive and he will have his chest cavity cut open so the recovery will be extremely important. The vet said it's best that he stay in an enclosed pen so he can't jump, play, or do...

My cat has been breathing heavily lately so I took him to an emergency vet yesterday to find out he has chylothorax and the vet recommended euthanasia. I was absolutely devastated, he's only 5 years old and has always been healthy and happy so to hear that news was shocking. I begged for...

I have two cats, one of whom is fine with having her claws trimmed. My male cat, however, absolutely will not let me touch his claws. I've tried since he was a kitten, even when he was sound asleep, and he freaks out every time. It honestly doesn't bother me that his claws aren't trimmed, he...

I'm trying to use mainly natural cleaning products but the problem I'm finding is that most natural cleaners are formulated with essential oils which from my understanding are toxic to cats. I've been loving Mrs. Meyers cleaning products specifically the all purpose concentrate so I can just...

So my cats eat Taste of the Wild dry food and Sheba wet food everyday, I recently bought a new bag of the Taste of the Wild (same kind they were devouring before), and neither went near it, instead digging at the floor around it. Later in the day they finally started eating some of it but only a...

My kitten Riley is about 4 month's old now, and is terrified by anyone but me in my apartment. When I adopted him at 2 months, he was quite outgoing at the shelter and didn't seem particularly shy or skittish when I was handling him. When my sister visited a couple weeks after the adoption, she...

I've had my 4 month old kitten for about a month and a half now and for the majority of that time he's been on Nature's Variety Instinct kitten formula dry and Wellness Core wet for kittens (yes I know it'd be better to feed all wet but I'm gone for most of the day and worry he'd go hungry...

So I adopted a kitten a little over a week ago, the people at the shelter explained the shots to me but I was still pretty confused (plus the kitten crying in his box was distracting lol). They said he received some shots then will need boosters every few weeks. So if he was 2 months when I...

Sorry if this isn't the right forum to post this! So I just adopted a second cat after about 6 months of considering it and thinking that it would be nice to have a friend for my current cat who is usually calm, friendly, and very playful. The kitten is 2 months old, blind, and very...

So last night out of nowhere my cat had a little sneeze attack, sneezing about 5 times in a row. I didn't think too much of it since this happens occasionally. Then about 20 minutes later it happened again, this time she was making kind of weird nose noises afterwards when cleaning her face...

So I use tea tree oil for a number of things; spot treatment of acne, on minor cuts, in foot soaks, etc. I know not to ever apply it to my cat or let her ingest it, but now I'm wondering if it's bad for cats to even inhale the scent of it. I don't diffuse it, but when I use it in foot soaks the...

New to the site, so hello! I recently adopted a 1 year old cat a month and a half ago, so far things have been going well. When I first brought her home she was very affectionate, rubbing up against me and rolling over letting me pet her all the time even on the stomach. However, in the past few...
