My baby Percy had a little blood on her butt so I took her to pet emergency (her regular vet was booked). They said her anal glands were thick and full. They said they could express them or we could wait and see if she did it on her own. The next day she had loose poop with blood. We took...

There is a big white kitty that we think has a home stays around our house a lot. We feed him and give him loves. He's a pretty loving guy but skittish. We think he has a home but aren't sure. We don't let him in our house as we have a 2 yr old little girl and don't know if he has anything...

We adopted our precious tabby baby girl Percy at nine months from the local shelter. She had already had a litter of kittens:frown: She was fostered for several months by a wonderful lady. When we adopted her in late May last year she was cuddly with my husband (who is a cat lover and a...

We have a stray long hair white kitty we call Snowball (dont' know his real name) that we've been feeding and let sleep on our patio. We're pretty sure he has a home but no idea where. He's been around for a couple of years. He is losing his fur on each side of his body in clumps. Hair...

Our baby Greta crossed the bridge about two weeks ago and I can't stop crying. How do you ever get better?

Our 14 or 15 (we're not sure) Greta has been diagnosed with cognitive issues. We have a wonderful vet Greta is doing well except for this. She has the typical symptoms of staring into space, looking like she doesn't know what to do, having to put food dish under her nose sometimes, etc. She's...

Has anyone had experience in dealing (mentally and physically) with feline cognitive issues? Greta is about 14 and is often spacey, sleeping much of the time, has started eating less and sometimes I have to put the dish of food under her nose before she'll eat. She is seen regularly by her vet...

Our 13 year old Greta has become more vocal in the last two months. Everything else is normal with her. It's mostly when wanting food but is also at times just in general meowing. She doesn't seem to be in pain or anything. Is this normal for a senior cat? I thinking of taking her to the vet...

My Greta is about 14 or 15. She is a long hair tortie. I have been using a product that sprays on her food to help keep her teeth clean and it's done well. Now she's decided she won't eat food with this on it. I have stayed away from water additives 1) because she is on the edge of possible...

We have an adorable little kitty that comes to visit us. Yesterday he was limping and it seemed to be something with one of his toe beans, maybe a scratch or bite or something. I'd like to put something on it when he visits again. Is there some home remedy that I could put on there that would...

Does anyone have good ideas on an easy way to give oral meds with a syringe besides wrapping kitty like a burrito? Greta does NOT like oral liquid meds and I'm afraid when I'm trying to get her mouth open I'll hurt her. She has long black hair around her mouth so it's hard to find in the first...

Our fur baby had an ultrasound yesterday an now we need to give her meds but she keeps hiding under the bed. I think she wants no part of me since i was the one that took her. I cried when they took her in and nobody could go in the building because of the corona virus thing so people were all...

We have a little very sickly black feral who appears quite ill. We want to take it to the local animal shelter because we cannot care for it. A guy from the shelter brought out a cat trap. It's only been out a couple hours but we really want to get this kitty some help. I was thinking of...

With the weather turning colder I have made a number of individual shelters for our feral friends from big totes using suggestions on the internet. I lined them with styrafoam under blankets and and those thin silver emergency blanket things for camping, and put some straw in a pillow case...

Has anyone had success collecting kitty urine at home? The vet gave us a half a baggie of little black plastic bead things. Not even enough to put a small layer on the little box. Our Greta is a 12 pound pretty big girl and her litter box is quite large. I went to the hobby stores as our vet...

With the help of this wonderful site I've been giving our baby her sub q fluids now for several months. She just got a vet visit and our vet said she was doing really well. We need to keep on the fluids but we have been using one of those neck warmer kind of things I think with little beads or...

Our 12 or 13 yr. old. little Greta was diagnosed with just minor kidney issues and the vet suggested we give her subcutaneous fluids at home twice a week. They showed us how to do it; it looks doable but really scares me. We go back next week for another lesson and then will do it at home...

My long hair 10 year old kitty doesn't like to be brushed but needs to be. I've tried treats and being ever so gentle but I still have to chase her around the room. Any ideas how I can make it easier for both of us?
