    Cat is biting

    I posted about this 3 year old stray cat months ago. He bites hard when bored or trying to play. Playing string with him or throwing him a toy does no good. He wants to be cuddling with me and biting and clawing. He is aggressive about getting on me and cuddle for 30 seconds, then bite me...

    Ideas for aggressive stray

    I saved an approx 2 year old stray cat in late winter/early spring in Minnesota. He really wants to be a house cat but I have 3 cats already, 2 with serious health problems, and he's aggressive. I had him neutered about 3 or 4 months ago. He bites my husband and me less often. He nips hard and...

    Upset stomach on new diabetic diet

    My 6 year old cat has high blood sugar and i have switched her from mostly dry to 50 50 low carb wet food and prescription dry food. She had never liked wet food much. 50% wet food may not be sustainable. She seems to have an upset stomach. I gave her the first dose of insulin yesterday...

    After anasthsia care for outdoor cat

    I will ask my vet, but I'm trying to get ready for Wednesday. I'm having a 2 year old outdoor cat neutered on Wednesday at about 10 AM. I will have him home about 5 PM. Will 60°F (15.6°C) be warm enough after anasthesia for overnight? He is living in the garage now and has a heated pad, but...

    How to train stray kitty to stop biting when playful

    I have a very friendly stray tomcat that's about 2 years old that it turns out I will keep him, because he's not particularly adoptable. He bites when playful, hard enough to bruise or draw blood. I have to wear boots when I visit with him because there's a good chance he will bite my ankles or...

    Found sick stray

    A stray kitty has been around my rural place a few days, and it turns out this is not a feral cat. It's a very friendly cat. The kitty has eye discharge, the eye membranes area showing, it sneezes a bit. It acts totally healthy otherwise. It's a little thin. Kitty wants in the house...

    Detective work: 2 cats in my home are twitching (seizures)

    One 10 year old cat started twitching about 2 months ago and is being treated with a steroid and gabapentin. The treatment has helped, but he still twitches around the face and his head moves and sometimes his legs. It was thought that most likely it was brain cancer, but an MRI has not been...
