    Black Cats Only

    Just wanted to share some pictures of my lovely lady April who absolutely knows October is her month (ironically) She posed for all these herself by the way, I didn't put her anywhere near those Halloween things!

    Sudden change in feeding behavior

    Sadly, getting 2 solo feeders isn't an option for us right now as they're too expensive and my husband thinks it's a waste because we have the duo feeder. I think you're right, though. We moved Kylo onto adult food early (although I still feed him kitten wet food every other night) so that both...

    Sudden change in feeding behavior

    So since our youngest Kylo joined the family, the eldest cat April has developed a new feeding behavior. This only happened recently, maybe the past month? So it wasn't as soon as Kylo joined us but I believe it's connected. We have 2 automatic feeders, one is a duo and one is a solo. The solo...

    Found kitten last night!

    The sweet little man is thriving! He's quickly become the king of the house and is also the best little cuddle buddy at night and has become very attached to both me and my husband. Thank you to everyone who gave advice.

    How does my cat keep getting a dirty chin?

    Thank you! We bought some today and have started to use it. Hopefully it'll clear up but if it doesn't, we'll take her back to the vet.

    How does my cat keep getting a dirty chin?

    Do you think this would work? It came up when searching for cat acne treatment at home, but it apparently can also help with wounds and such. If at-home treatments don't work or it gets worse, then we will absolutely take her to the vet.

    How does my cat keep getting a dirty chin?

    This somewhat related to my previous post about my cat who I first suspected had something wrong with her gums, to then be told she had fleas on her chin, and now I'm not even sure if she had fleas. She seems to be doing good overall, her energy is back and she's (mostly) back to her old self...

    Unsure if my cat is unwell or sad

    Thank you for this, it'll be very useful to keep an eye out for this. She seems relatively okay now, she still seems quite anti-social and now growls at the kitten when he tries to play with her, she's clearly not interested in playing with him lately. But she's still eating, drinking and isn't...

    Unsure if my cat is unwell or sad

    Not long returned from the vet, they suspected she only had some fleas on her chin and she'd been scratching at it and it got inflamed. The lump apparently is normal, all cats have it but on the other side of her mouth it was darker so harder to see. Her mood did get better today anyway, and...

    Unsure if my cat is unwell or sad

    Vet appointment is booked for Friday. She's back to being lethargic and has slept a majority of today, still drooling a little and generally looks like she has a dirty mouth, but not bloody. Also looks like she's missing a bit of fur around the area. Thankfully she's still eating though, I just...

    Unsure if my cat is unwell or sad

    Her mood seemed to pick up a little in the evening as me and my husband were settling into bed, she started to play with her springs again and generally be more active on her own. Still, even if there's nothing wrong with her gums/teeth, I'm glad to be taking her to the vet because we both feel...

    Unsure if my cat is unwell or sad

    Thank you to both of you, it's reassuring to be told it's "normal" if she has something wrong with her tooth or gums. I've tried to brush them in the past but she's very against it so I settled for "greenies" as a daily treat but I know they're not a good replacement. Will update after our vet...

    Unsure if my cat is unwell or sad

    My husband just discovered she may have some pain in her mouth, he pet the side of her mouth and she squeaked and upon further inspection, it looks like she might have a lump on her lower gum. She was drooling a little yesterday but we only noticed it once and it's not consistent. I've...

    Unsure if my cat is unwell or sad

    I have 3 cats as of recent, we've had our Annie for about 2 years now, and adopted a second cat for her several months later. The second cat was intended to be a play buddy for her but sadly April is not that kind of cat, but they get along. Recently, a third has joined our household after we...

    Affordable food for "all life stages"?

    Sounds like a better way to handle things, yeah! I also don't mind giving him his kitten dry food when I'm able/when I'm home. It's more a concern of mine for when I'm not able to supervise all 3 or be home, which is actually infrequent. Thank you again for all the advice, I'll start looking...

    Affordable food for "all life stages"?

    I'm still leaning more towards feeding all 3 of them an all life stages kibble until the kitten is older, I'm very worried about the adults gaining weight as one of them is already needing to lose some weight. I do try to exercise them but the most exercise they really get is running after the...

    Affordable food for "all life stages"?

    Is it safe for me to do this without the adult cats gaining too much weight from consuming kitten food, too? Does it matter how much kitten dry food he consumes? Considering he gets a wet kitten meal a day, too. I was only planning on giving all 3 of them an all life stages food when 2 are...

    Affordable food for "all life stages"?

    Thank you so much! I intend to get a small bag and mix it in with their current food to see if they take to it because in the past, one of our cats has been very sensitive to different foods and it took us a long time to find a dry food that worked for her (which is how we settled on Purina...

    Affordable food for "all life stages"?

    I've found a few yeah, I just wondered if any were actually good in terms of quality and for a growing kitten, and which ones in particular. The three that I found that are easily obtainable for me are: "Natural balance original ultra", "Solid gold indoor cat food", and "Nulo freestyle cat and...

    Affordable food for "all life stages"?

    So I just discovered that "all life stages" food exists for cats and I'm very intrigued. To give the short version, my household currently consists of 2 adult cats and 1 kitten. The adults get fed dry food in small portions throughout the day via an automatic feeder, something my husband...
