Hi, I came across an article stating that ingesting sodium benzoate is harmful (possibly deadly) for cats. I’ve fed my cats catfood with that ingredient before without any negative effects, so I was wondering how much sodium benzoate can cats safely ingest. I saw somewhere that it’s around...

I rescued a senior cat (around 8 years old) last year and he was in normal health aside from a fungal infection. He preferred to stay outside the house for the first year but recently he’s been wanting to be inside with my other cats more. That’s when I noticed that he was straining to poop most...

Cat is a semi-stray male but hes living in the house while he’s recovering. Around 8 years old. We suspected that he hasnt been able to poop -aside from some tiny tough stools- for nearly a month, as he usually does his business outside where we cant see him. We brought him in to the vet and...

Male cat (~6 years old) Neutered 3 years ago As stated in the title. My male tabby loves going outside just to roam around and pick fights with other cats, but we limited it to a few minutes with supervision because he got a thorn in his eye once and then was also bitten by a monkey (we live...

Planning to get the Veterinary Formula antiseptic and antifungal spray (because thats the only one available in the shops) but I was wondering if there’s any difference between the shampoo and the spray? Maybe in terms of the formula or effectiveness?

My female cat (long haired, 3yrs) peed blood today. My relative brought her to the vet because I’m out of town and the vet said her bladder was empty, but it could be crystals or a bacterial infection from the litter box. They went on to say that male and female cats actually shouldn’t share...

Long-haired ~3 years old Female Cat suddenly started peeing in different parts of the house. We adopted her at the start of the pandemic (3 years ago?) and the only time she ever peed outside of her litter box is on her first day at our house because she was scared, so this is very new...

My kitten was spayed 3 weeks ago and the incision site has mostly healed except for a lone thread sticking out of her belly. In the first picture (few days after spay) you can see that it's the excess thread and the second pic is what it looks like now. She keeps pulling at it when she's...

We have an outdoor cat who had stopped eating and interacting with us and the other cats. A visit to the vet told us that he had gingivities and mouth ulcers due to his high body temp (caused by him being in the sun a lot) so we brought him inside and kept him in a cool place for a week. He...

Hi all, a stray kitten (3-5 months old) wandered into our compound and has been an outdoor cat ever since. Most of the cats in our neighborhood are either fixed or antisocial and she was still quite young so I wasn't worried about any accidental pregnancies. However today a male cat showed...

I have a 5 year old neutered male cat. He was neutered about 2/3 years ago which fixed some of his behavioral issues. Everything was fine until about 2 weeks ago, when he started peeing around the house and sometimes pooping right outside the room where his litter box is. This was when I went...

Just something I've been curious about. I noticed recently that my male cat (neutered if that matters) has been 'hiding his scent' on random places and starts scratching and burying an invisible object or I assume, his scent. I thought he was trying to hide his vomit or peeing/pooping out of...

I have two cats, a 5-year-old male tabby and a 3-year-old female longhair. Recently they've showed signs of constipation. So far they've been eating RC 2nd age dry kitten food exclusively for 3 years, as this is the catfood they have the most positive response to (they have sensitive digestion...

I recently rescued a male cat who is suffering from a severe fungal infection. The vet told me to preferably keep him indoors, but would it be alright to keep him in a large cage outside as he undergoes rehabilitation? The cage is under a roof and will not be affected by most weather...

I have 2 cats: Baby (a 4 year old tabby) & (Billy) 2 year old long haired. Both have digestion issues - Baby has bad digestion and usually pukes out what his body cant handle & Billy is sensitive to cheap quality cat foods and will get diarrhea if she eats too much of it. After some...

Hello, i have a 1 year old cat that recently contracted a high fever (unknown causes so shes been quarantined in case its viral and infects her brother) and the vet said that she also had inflamed tonsils. She hasnt eaten in over 24 hours and vomited her last meal out so shes running on...

if my username is familiar its because ive been posting here a lot in the past few days haha. this post is less of a question and more of a vent since i cant really do anything about the situation, but advice or suggestions are greatly welcomed. My male cat is 2 years old and we adopted him...

owner of a 2 year old male tabby here. tl;dr = my cat's health has been deteriorating gradually in different ways and i'm considering a getting blood test done. my kitty recently got bitten by another cat on the foot and it punctured quite deep but not critical enough to need any intensive...

my male tabby is around 2 years old and weighs around 4.7kg. the problem is that his weight is mostly due to his height and length (he's quite long everywhere, like a bengal). so he's not fat by any means, and actually seems a bit too thin. his hip bones protrude a lot when he's sitting on his...
