    Introductions and dealing with the first 24 hours+

    Hello everyone. Today I took in a 6 month old female kitten. I plan to do everything by the book, though that plan was slightly undermined by an accidental sighting when the kitten escaped base camp for a brief moment.

    Gagging/hairball hacking the same time every day?

    My girl has been waking me up every day between the hours of 6-7 AM by hacking for about 30 seconds. Typically this is the only time I hear this sound all day. It’s a dry sound without wheezing, very hairball-like. She’s still eating and using the litter box. At this point, she hasn’t eaten for...
