    Lethargic after shots

    I had to take my cat to the vet last night for a possible ear infection. He was not thrilled about the Dr cleaning and fussing with his ears. He also needed his rabies and distemper shots so they did that as well. It’s been over 24 hrs and he’s still lying around and lethargic. Barely has...

    Sore on back on cat’s leg

    Thank you! I think it appears a little darker than before, but I’ll keep an eye on it. He’s about a year and a half. I adopted him after my cat died suddenly. She was only 7 and out of nowhere I noticed a lump on her side. Vet said it was cancer and there was nothing they could do. She was gone...

    Sore on back on cat’s leg

    Hi all, i noticed this on the back of my cat’s leg. It doesn’t seem to bother him and it’s not bleeding or oozing. I asked my aunt who runs an animal rescue and she said to just watch it. What are your thoughts?

    Going to vet today

    I’ll try that as well. The vet said he seems well hydrated, not constipated, and very healthy. This is only my second cat and my first one got sick and died very suddenly. I always felt like I missed signs or could have done something. So I’m extra observant to any changes now so I can get it...

    Going to vet today

    I said he gets into everything and threw up an earplug a couple weeks ago. The vet just said there’s really nothing wrong in his opinion. I’m sure he’s seen thousands and thousands of cats in his 85 years so I’m confident he knows what he’s talking about. I’ll just keep an eye on him and call...

    Going to vet today

    Update! I left with more questions than answers I think. I’ll start off by saying my vet is about 80 years old and very very well respected in my town. He asked how I knew my cat wasn’t pooping. Obviously I said there’s nothing in the litterbox and my apt is so small, I would notice if he was...

    Going to vet today

    That’s my worry. He literally chews and eats everything. I don’t know why. I guess he could have gotten a hold of pretty much anything. My friend is the vet tech and they’re extremely busy, but she got me in so we’re waiting now. Hopefully it’s nothing too serious!

    Going to vet today

    Update on my 1 year old boy’s constipation. He had loose stools on Thursday night/Fri morning and nothing since then. I’ve tried all suggestions I’ve gotten here and elsewhere and still nothing. He’s been acting completely fine though. He’s still eating/drinking, running around like a maniac...

    Constipation

    Hi all. I posted here a while ago about my 1 yr old boy has been having trouble with constipation. He goes about every other day and I can tell it’s a little difficult. Per the vet tech advice, I took away his dry food and have only been giving him wet the past few days mixed with extra water...

    Red pimple on cat’s belly

    He usually doesn’t, but I have noticed him grooming that area more frequently lately. It definitely stands out and has never looked that red.

    Red pimple on cat’s belly

    That’s what I thought, but it’s very red and noticeable just when he’s sitting. His other nipples don’t look that way, so I wasn’t sure if I should be concerned.

    What is this? I just noticed it today on my cats belly. Is this something I need to call the vet for?

    Cat can’t poo

    Sorry I’m just seeing this. He ended up going to the litter box shortly after I posted this and has been pretty much ok all week. I noticed yesterday he had some trouble, but eventually went. Today he went to the litterbox and nothing. I’m only giving wet food and took away his dry food. I also...

    Cat can’t poo

    I have an almost 1 year old tuxedo boy. Last week (Thursday night) I noticed he threw up one of my silicone earplugs. I know that’s terrible. After that he seemed to be acting fine, playing, eating, etc. But that is the last day he pooped. I give him wet food 2x a day and add warm water to it...

    Cat has bad breath

    I don’t see any redness at all. I will try to get a pic of his teeth.

    Cat has bad breath

    I have a 9 month old tuxedo cat. In the last few weeks I’ve noticed some bad breath. I can’t explain what is smells like. It’s not fishy and only noticeable when he yawns and is right next to me. Should I bring him to the vet for this, or try something over the counter first (treats, brushing...

    Overweight cat?

    Hi all! I have an 8 month old tuxedo cat who I adopted a few months ago. He is getting to be a big boy- about 10 lbs now! He’s very long and solid. Anyone who meets him is shocked he’s under a year old. My question is, is he too big? I feed him a 3oz can of Fancy Feast twice per day and leave...

    Cat not eating

    Update: I went out yesterday and got all different flavors of wet food. He ended up eating the fancy feast chicken in gravy in 2 seconds. At dinner time I tried another flavor and he wouldn’t touch it. I left it out for a long time and nothing, but ate some dry food. This morning I gave him...
