    Time for vet visit?

    Our black female cst (spayed) 11 yrs old had her vet check up a few months ago and all was great. She just recently got this patch on her face and it doesn't seem to hurt her but it's not going away, is it worth putting her through the stress of a vet visit?

    Aloof cat after vet visit and human quarrel

    My cat has been aloof after a vet visit last Thursday and then on Friday my partner and I had a fight with raised voices. The cat went to the vet for diaherra from an allergic reaction to something so hes on the hydrolyzed food and I cannot win his affection back with treats. I think where I...

    Welp, today JB had directed aggression and bit up my arm, I'm ok bc I had long sleeves on so cold water, soap, and neosporin for me. He is also keeping me up at night even after several play sessions which is exacerbating a few of my own medical issues. Our vet is at a loss and suggested we...

    Cat Intros Month 11

    I'm running into an issue with the 2-year old where basically he's lost interest in playing, we've tried Da Bird, several foraging toys, the Ripple Rug, he has a cat tower etc. I rotate toys daily so that there's always a different toy to play with while the others are kept away in a closet. The...

    Cat Intros Month 11

    I total get what you're saying. I'm just kind of banging my head against the wall at this point (figuratively). The 2nd behaviorist (the first one was....not helpful), said the gates are worth a shot but I never considered they'd both want to hide. They know the other one is there so...maybe we...

    2 yr old had abdominal ultrasound how to care for shaved belly?

    I should probably also mentioned he had a sore in his mouth about a month ago that cleared up so the doctor is just being extra cautious.

    2 yr old had abdominal ultrasound how to care for shaved belly?

    It just seemed like A LOT because our girl had the same procedure done but waaay less was shaved. We got the all clear on tge scan, he has diaherra and we tried meds, id, xrats, so they think it for sure is allergies and now we are doing a trial of hills z/d.
