    My cat won’t let me sleep

    During the day, she hates to be touched or pet or held. But for some weird reason at night, it’s always around 3:30, she wakes me up, meowing NONSTOP until I pet her. And I’ll pet her for a few minutes and then fall asleep, and then she just keeps meowing over and over until I pet her again...

    Question about feeding 3 month old Kittens

    Just to be safe I always mix in a little bit with the wet food they eat right now. So I’m trying a bunch of new foods to find something they like, and I’ll do about half and half. Half of the new one and half of the one they are eating now. This way they still can taste it and I know if they...

    Kitten with ringworm- I messed up

    Thank you so much for your kind words. It meant a lot! It’s definitely been a learning process for sure. I knew when I was adopting them I would have to deal with Heath problems most likely at some point or that I was always a possibility but I didn’t think Thai would all happen so soon! So I’m...

    Kitten with ringworm- I messed up

    They told me that his skin is okay. They reassured me that he would be okay. They told me again to reach out to the shelter. Just to double check instructions and to also ask for an oral medication to give him. So I did all of that and they prescribed him terbinafine. And also a different...

    Kitten with ringworm- I messed up

    Thank you so much! Yeah it’s all been a bit of a nightmare. I don’t understand what is going on and why we were given such sick kitties after being told they were healthy. I’m so frustrated. Just because I was definitely not prepared! But of course it’s not the kittens fault and I still love...
