Thank you both! Funnily enough, she is an absolutely silent sleeper. This noisy breathing only happens when she is awake and only happens once or twice a week. I’ll explore the possibility of a sinus issue with the vet.

I have had my beautiful calico for a little over 2 years (4.5 years old). She was found by the shelter in someone's backyard and had a polyp in her ear at the time. The vet removed it when they put her under for spay. Other than some ear infections when I first adopted her, she's been a healthy...

I want to get her a buddy and worry about this exact food stealing situation. I'll probably come back to you someday for tips on that ;)Microchip feeders are indeed quite expensive! I'm right now typing this out while Azizi(my hungry calico) is sitting across staring and watching my moves and...

Got myself a street girl as well. Just from my username you can tell I got a hungry one as well :lol: Her health check came back fine. I split what would be 2 meals for most cats into 4. I wanted to keep her on all wet but the mid day kibble goes into a hunting toy which she bats around for half...

Thank you for explaining it so well. My girl can eat till the cows come home and it got me worried whether she has worms or something else. I updated her wet food brands to grain free ones and I'm managing her kibble intake to make sure she is not eating too much. She throws quite the tantrum...

It's been about 5 months since my cat first came home. She had just turned 2.2 years when I adopted her and 3 days before I adopted her she was spayed. At the time she weighed 3.8 kgs(8.3 lbs) and has gained since and now weighs 5.2 kgs (11.4 lbs). It took me a few days to realize she's insecure...

Azizi, inspecting the blinds in search of flies or spiders.

I'm so sorry to hear about what your cat is going through and also how it must hurt you to see your cat like this. I have no advice, just some virtual warm hugs. I'm sure more experienced cat pawrents will have something useful to say. I'm just hoping you find the best possible guidance on this 🤗

Interesting. It takes a while for the wax to become visible. The odor is what comes first and it makes me wonder if the wax is deep set which eventually comes out where theres too much of it. That would require me to administer some drops because I don't think it would be safe to go digging into...

Thank you for the suggestion! Do you get this at a drugstore? Or should I speak to my Vet about this?

Hello everyone! I had posted some months ago about my newly adopted cat having ear issues. It started with visible ear wax and odor and following vet check ups it was found that she had a bacterial infection going on. Vet prescribed Surolan which I'd been administering for a few weeks. After the...

Found this amazing thread of appreciation and I am going to echo what every one else has said. I randomly found the cat site while googling support sites for new cat owners. When my little Azizi came home with me I had no idea how to prepare myself. Thank you so much to everyone who take the...

It was literally your post from a few months ago that convinced me to get pet insurance for my cat. Thank you so much for sharing your experience :)

Well it depends. If your cat had something in their medical history listed before they became yours, it's preexisting. If you get your cat home and immediately signup for an insurance which usually consists of a 30 day activation wait time, and then discover at the vets that something new came...
