Thanks! Just wanted to make sure the behavior is normal! Any thoughts on how to clip his nails? He’s very wiggly and will definitely not appreciate me trying to clip them

My kitten Leo is about 9 weeks old now and is full of kitten energy! I play with him during the day as much as possible between school and work but still get very little sleep at night. My main concern is that he attacks my hands/arms and occasionally my face and he’s destroying all of my...

Today at the vet while getting Leo's second round of shots and dewormer, the vet told me that we would neuter him at 6 months and would do a blood test at that same time to determine if Leo has feline Leukemia. He got very serious and asked me if I would abandon Leo if he ended up testing...

Got a round of antibiotics into Leo and he's much better now. Hates taking his medicine twice a day but he's healthy!!!

Leo took his first dose of antibiotic around noon. I got back from class to find this and I’m so worried! He looks awful! Has anyone seen this before? He’s pooping some sort of mucus? I don’t know why but I’m taking him to the vet first thing tomorrow to see if there’s anything more they can...

I woke up today and Leo looks absolutely miserable His eyes are red and watery and his breathing sounds like he’s super stuffed up and he’s blowing snot bubbles and one of his nostrils looks like it’s bleeding? I called the vet and he said to come pick up the antibiotics in an hour and I...

He seems to be doing better, still eating a couple teaspoons of chicken baby food every few hours. He has started sneezing again though? I’m just so happy he’s eating!

Also I haven’t mentioned this but Leo has had the hiccups a couple times this week? Not sure if that means anything either.

Waitttt I just opened the chicken flavored gerber food (instead of the turkey I tried yesterday) and he is currently working on teaspoon number 3! I don’t understand why he’ll eat this instead of everything else but yay!!!

I don’t know what to do! Leo will eat a couple bites of dry food and drink a bit of water (and by a little bit I mean he’s eaten maybe 1/16th of a cup) and use the litter box but only if I pick him up out of ‘his spot’ on my bed and put him near the food. Otherwise he stays here all day and all...

My kitten is 7 weeks old and he's having the same problem! Stopped eating a couple days ago and the vet doesn't know what's wrong. However I got gerber turkey baby food and once an hour I put it on his lips and paws and he licks it off immediately. I also made a pedialyte (1 cup water, 1...

He’s not interested in the gerber either but I made the ‘pedialyte’ and he drank a bit of it on his own! Baby steps!

Well I put food on him and he did lick it off! It looks like we had a food fight in my bathroom but at least I know he ate something. I’m going to go get the Gerber turkey and chicken now and try the whole process again and see how he does. Thanks for the idea!!!

He wanted me to try this certain food first but he mentioned bringing Leo back to do a blood test and give him antibiotics if the food didn’t work

And I’m not sure how to get him to eat. He hasn’t moved from his little cat bed and I just noticed that there’s a bit of pee in it so he must not have even tried to get to the litter box :( I’m worried that he’s just going to get weaker and weaker

Is it safe for me to feed him with one of those medicine syringes for young children? He still hasn’t eaten

Thank you everyone! The vet didn’t find anything wrong with Leo except the not eating thing. He gave me some food that he says is hard for kittens to resist but we’ve been home for several hours now and Leo hasn’t eaten any of it yet. I’ll be trying some of your suggestions soon! The vet also...

No unfortunately. My vet opens at 7am tomorrow though so I'll be there right at open to see if they'll take me as a walk-in. Does anyone have any suggestions for in the meantime? Leo isn't any warmer than usual though I'm not sure how reliable that is to tell if he has a fever or not

I’m going to, first thing in the morning. I don’t know if I’m overreacting or not but better safe than sorry because I’m really worried about him at this point.

Leo was doing great but last night he started behaving strangely? He stopped eating and has maybe eaten a tablespoon of wet food since yesterday around 4pm. He doesn’t want to play and doesn’t meow a lot. He mostly finds one spot on my bed and has just been sleeping all day. Should I be...
