My family and I have 14 cats: 2 adopted from shelters, and the rest found us. Some of them found us as kittens, others adults that became friendly after wth spayed/neutered them. Four are female and the rest are male (all 14 fixed). They are listed below with the dates and ages they found us...

I had to re-introduce our cats and it worked. It took a while and we added a screen door to divide the house, but it worked! I'm in the main part of the house during the day and living room in the evening, so I was able to spend time in both places with both cats. They calmed knowing that...

I saw it on an episode of Jackson Galaxy and have found it to be true with my cats--are there any strays outside? I live in an area where a few feral strays will come to our house and the scent of the ferals marking or seeing them from the window makes a few of them really anxious. They can't...

You were all right! It was Stage II that was causing him diarrhea. Once we stopped that, his poop got better and he started using the kitty litter again. Not long after that, he started eating wet food. He is doing great! Thanks for all your help!

Thanks for the advice! He is cute and it would break my heart which is why I haven't confined him yet. His poop is a 5 and 6 when he is on pumpkin. I assumed that was because he was on the bottle and I was introducing some new food (adding canned and now Smalls which is what he will be on...

My family took in a 2 week (guessed by the owner of the farm cat) rejected baby. I've been following Hannah--the Kitten Lady--in bottle feeding and such. At what seemed like 4 weeks, I switched to the Phase 2 KMR (all the local pet store had) and added a tiny bit of wet food to it--and...

I want to thank you all for your suggestions. My mom was pretty sure that they just dipped the urine sample. Again, we haven't had the greatest relationship with vets there. One doctor told us we should put down the FIV+ cat because he is a danger to our cats and the community cats. One of...

I didn't think about water. There is a filter in their fountain but I will start filling it with filtered water. I will research s. Boulardii and Cornsilk. Thanks again!

Thanks again everyone! These are great help. I will keep this all for more information for the future too. Litter boxes: They have hoods. I will have to compare them with some non-hooded ones to compare depths. Litter: Sustainable Yours Multi-Cat Plus From Corn and Cassava Natural...

Samples collected: for each, I watched the cat pee right in front of me. One peed in the kitchen, one in a basket, one on some plastic that was down for painting, and one on a sheet that was covering some things from paint too. We have two cats that have a history with peeing on fabric type...

The vet thinks it is the food. My local vets are more familiar with cows than cats and I've never found them helpful. It could be stress. My mom gets stressed when she knows her eldest daughter, son-in-law, and grand baby are coming over--which they did for Thanksgiving. I know the cats...

All are allergy tested and eating whatever raw food is best for them. We have one water fountain, a lot of water out for soaking plants, and they can go outside where there is usually a lot of collected water. One area of our yard I refer to as a moat. They only want to go out now when it...

We've tested all 12 of our cats for allergies with 5 Strands and have been pleased with the results. They seem to align with what we notice in their behaviors. One cat threw up a lot; turns out, he is allergic to chicken. Another has behavior problems and she is allergic to SO MUCH...

Scooped him up. He was too young or hungry to be scared and he was purring instantly. I looked around for other kittens or his mom, but didn't see/hear anything. He was fine at first, but then got weak/lethargic and his rectum came out a bit when he pooped. We removed hundreds of tiny ticks...

Thanks for the reassurance! We have been doing this--especially since a few days after I posted this, a 4-week old kitten came to our porch and asked for help! She takes a long time to be comfortable with new cats. We have some cat towers in there for her, but we will catify it more...

My family now has 12 cats and the start of it all was one pregnant mama. We socialized the kittens and kept them and trapped the mom and spayed her when she had weened the second litter because we didn't realize how quickly she could get pregnant again. The first litter was inside-outside but...

Our family just found a 4 week old kitten and he had terrible diarrhea and his rectum was coming out and bleeding a bit. The vet thinks it was worms. While we were waiting for the de-wormer to work, we had this pumpkin supplement left over from our dog who had frequent/chronic diarrhea. We...

I thought chicken was the best protein for cats. I have 11 cats and tested them all for allergies and only two can eat chicken! How is this not more known!

Help Cat Angry Pees Everywhere Still pees EVERYWHERE So, there is parts 1 and 2. Short version: Penny used to mostly be an only cat. We had other cats and dogs but they just ignored her and then died of old age when she was still pretty young. I got a cat a year before we got her, but I...

I switched mine to raw food and don't have this problem anymore. I've gotten it from Hare-Today (but you have to mix your own supplements in) and Darwin's (much easier). Now, they scarf it, they are healthier, and I don't have to wash and recycle cans!
