    Cat with worms - put my mind at peace?

    First Vet Visit Not So Good

    Hi all, I posted in the new cat forum a couple of weeks ago about our new shelter cat Ox. He had his first visit today and it was a bummer — I’m so sad he’s in such bad shape and feel awful for him (though happy he has us to take care of him now). He has bacterial and yeast infections in both...

    Hi all, Bringing home our new 4-year-old shelter cat, Ox, tomorrow afternoon. Will post a pic when he's settled! I'm a little anxious and am hoping for any tips/tricks to help get him acclimated, as well as affirming stories of bringing home a new, adult cat (I've read enough about all the the...
