The mom and 2 kittens are with one of neighbors who has more experience and resources than I do.
I do love black cats as they have extremely sweet personalities.
Piper is doing much better. I have decided to not use flea sprays on her. I’m currently researching better and healthier flea preventive measures. I tried salt and water and that has been working so far.
I fostered a total of 32 kittens and never lost one, but I’m out of practice for 6 years now.
I found a kitten while out walking by the side of the road. I went home, grabbed some food as I thought maybe there was/is a colony and walked back up to the location. The kitten was in the same...
I’m worried that the bath will stress her out more. Yes, I’m one of those people that overthinks.
This particular spray is Adams flea and tick spray for cats and dogs. Advises 1 spray per pound. You’re correct that Adams (and other brands) do have a spray specifically for the carpet and says...
Piper, my 3 year old cat, was sprayed for fleas yesterday.
She has no physical adverse effects except for excess saliva when trying to groom herself.
She is acting less outgoing and not eating as much.
How do I help her? Should I wash her with a damp rag so she can groom herself? Any...
Salem is the black one. Pumpkin is the orange/buff tabby, and Piper is the calico.
Pumpkin is no longer hiding exactly, but he’s staying in the bedroom. He’s very sensitive to changes and this is a big change. All 3 of the cats used to cuddle while sleeping (similar to a kitten pile, but...
Is it true that diarrhea can turn in to cancer? I really appreciate your lengthy reply.
My cats (Salem - 6, Pumpkin - 8, Piper - 3) have all been indoor all their life, except Pumpkin who was outdoor/indoor during a couple of years that he lived with my parents. Pumpkin being outdoor/indoor...
He was also too weak to eat pates. We first tried the holistic can food the vet gave us, but he didn’t like that at all even with syringe feeding. I’ll write more about what we tried later when I’m more composed.
He gagged at fish oil. Thank you for all of your suggestions. If he kept going yesterday he would had than 1 in red blood cells when the normal level starts at 6. He baffled bot vets as to how he was still alive.
Yesterday, my fiancé and I decided it was time to put him to sleep. He lost his ability to walk or stand and kept meowing due to being uncomfortable.
The conversation now turns to how do I prevent this from happening with Piper who’s a very petite female and Pumpkin who has a plethora of...
I’m planning on putting my 6 year old, Salem to sleep today. His quality of life is poor. He has 3 year sister who he used to groom and she would do the same. He also has an 8 year old brother, Pumpkin.
Piper has no issues health wise. Pumpkin has asthma and allergies. How do I prevent my...
I’m sorry for the lack of updates. I’m just so anxious, sad, and scared of losing Salem.
He’s been crated due to him not restraining himself. He is most comfortable with my fiancé, Monica. Monica held Salem on her chest for a while tonight and he seemed to completely calm down, even showing...
What does CBD help in cats? Would it help with anemia, stress from sickness, or energy?
The vet I went to mentioned no alternatives except prescription medicine. I had no idea they made cbd for cats.
Please help me find the thread/article that explains how to decrease crate stress or make a cat comfortable in a crate.
My cat is currently crated due to critical anemia. We crated Salem due to he almost died twice in one night due to being too energetic.
See my original thread for an...
I’m currently going through the same thing. My cat, Salem - 6 years old, was diagnosed with intestinal lymphoma on 5/24 or 5/29. Honestly the days are running together at this time. I made a thread if you want to read about his situation. I feel your pain, he can’t go to the bathroom without...
Salem is a 6 year old male domestic short hair. On around 5/20 he had been hiding and generally withdrawn which he is normally a cat that wants to be close all the time. After 3 days of lots of hiding and not eating right my fiancé and I took him to the vet on 5/24.
5/24 he had all sorts of...
