My kitten is almost 11 months old. She seems to grow out of all the wet food I give her. I gave her IAMS chicken in gravy, she loved it at first, then it took hours for her to finish. I have a feeling she grew out of liking it. I switched brands and same thing happened, she loved the wet food...

I have never seen her behave like this and I'm utterly confused. She is just splashing the water in her water bowl. She doesn't drink it, the water gets everywhere. It's like she plays with it, then she licks her paws after. She is almost 8 months old. I have no idea why she is acting like this...

I just woke up to a kitten with a red eye and some discharge (she's 7 months old). I'm afraid she has gotten something in her eye. I know I should take her to the vet, they open at 10 am, I'll call them as soon as they open. In the mean time, do you have some advice? I tried cleaning it with...

It was as I expected, she has an issue with her teeth (two back molars in her upper jaw). The issue is her two molars are going down through the gums in her lower jaw, so they're red and swollen. She has to have them pulled. It will cost me a fortune, sigh, but it has to be done. The vet said...

Yes, I spayed her when she was 5 1/2 months old. I wonder if there's something going on with her teeth. She seems to have red gums, some swelling too. I should probably get it checked out. I'm afraid she's meowing because she's in pain.

My cat has been meowing A LOT yesterday and especially today. She is somewhat vocal, but she has never been this vocal. It's constant, all the time. I'm wondering if she might be in pain or something? Maybe there's something wrong with her? She's just 7 months. Do you think I should take her to...

I took her to the vet. You were right, she did have an infection she got antibiotics and something for the pain. She is VERY affectionate right now, she won't leave my side, she literally slept on top of me all last night. The problem is she wouldn't walk with the body suit they gave her, so she...

She was neutered on Monday. I noticed yesterday that it smells really awful and it looks like there might be some discharge as well. Could it be infected? Should I call the vet?

I took her to the vet today. The vet took the body suit off and she literally ran around the room! I think it was hindering her movement. Glad to know she's ok. She is eating well and seems to be back to her old self. I have learned my lesson though, I won't use a body suit again. If she ever...

It's the next day and she's still not using her hind legs. I was actually planning on going back to work today (took the day off yesterday), but I just let my boss know that I have to take another day off. Everyone I've spoken to said it was enough with one day off work, if I had known it would...

Thank you, I called the vet. She just said it could take a while for the anesthesia to wear off. Thanks, I'm very worried about her. The weird thing is she's both eating and drinking water, she literally dragged her feet to the food and water bowls. She also somehow managed to use the litter...

I got my 5 month old kitten spayed today, I got her home at 3 pm. It's now 6:15 pm and she's still very out of it. What worries me the most is that she can't seem to move her hind legs, is this normal after surgery? It's been 3 hours, how long does it usually take for cats to heal after getting...

Thank you so much for all of your replies, I feel like I have better information now to make a decision. I will of course talk to the vet about it :) I'm from Norway (Europe). I talked to the vet and she said she recommends just removing the ovaries. She said they do a laparoscopic spay. It's...

I'm getting my kitten fixed on Monday, have already booked an appointment with the vet. I talked to the vet about the procedure, asked her what they remove, she said they only remove the ovaries, not the uterus, because it's a smaller procedure. Is this correct? The thing is, I have always heard...

Today I noticed my kitten has a scar just above her left eye. It looks like the wound bled because there's now a crust there. I have no idea how she got it. She is an indoor-only cat, but VERY active, she constantly gets herself into trouble. Just yesterday when I was closing the dishwasher door...

Thank you for all your help, Timmer. That's my issue though, I placed it in the spare bedroom at first. But she doesn't want to go in there for some reason! She has access to all of my condo, it's not even a big condo, 75 m2. But as I said; she prefers to only be here in the living room, maybe...

Thank you so much for all your help, molly92. I had no idea healthy cat poops were actually small. I thought that was a bad thing. I have never seen her struggle to poop, but her stool does seem kinda on the hard side. Idk if it's just because it's been in the litter box for a while and it has...

I live in a condo and just got a new kitten. I have two toilets for her to use. At first I placed one toilet in the hallway and another in the bathroom, but even though she has access to the entire condo she mostly just wants to spend time in the living room. I guess she feels safe there, it's...

I give her a bowl of the dry food she was used to from home, but she won't eat it. She will only eat the wet food but I don't want to give her too much of it because I know it's not healthy. I have seen her poops and it's like many small clups instead of one hard one. She has pooped "normal...

Sorry for the very late reply, she did eat eventually. It took about a day. She prefers wet food, she doesn't seem that fond of the dry food. I gave her the wet and dry food she was used at home before I got her. She devour the wet food but only nibble on the dry food. Maybe I should try...
