    Please help "8 week" old kitten only wants to play and not eat

    How long did it take for your kitten to pass the nipple and did you have complications like vomit and diarrhea? Those are the symptoms the vet told me to look out for incase of obstruction. And also how old was your kitten/weight. I'm just worried because she is so small

    On the drive back home she started panting again and I think it was because the car was overheating and her labored breaths began. I opened the windows immediately. I feel very bad Yes she swallowed the nipples tip. I am concerned though bc the vet made it seem very ominous

    HELP!! The vet told me to try bottle feeding and to start weaning her slowly. This did not work well. She but the nipple of her bottle. We rushed her to the ER. They see the nipple in there but she is too small to try and get it out just yet. They are not for inducing vomit or laxatives to...

    How do I make raw food more appealing??

    My cat just doesn't seem interested in it because it doesn't smell good. He is used to eating super smelly food, like Purina Crud. I want to desperately get him on raw food, but I've read approaches where you put the food out and wait for them to eat for a certain amount of time and then pick it...

    Cat poop isn't coming out in one piece?

    Thanks all! So he pooped a couple big ones lately and I think it just may have to do with him holding it in. I have myself a poop schedule and when he is "on time" for his poop, its a nice poop. When he isn't, not so much. I have another cat and they don't like each other very much so I noticed...
