I need ideas on playing with and tiring one of my cats out. She is just turned 2 , has TONS of energy and has turned into a bit of a trouble maker. she has always had a lot of energy , lately she seems bored and has WAY more zoomies and jumping climbing things. Pretty much being a cat. I play...

This has happened a few times and I thought I had mentioned it to the vet before but nothing ever came of it. since we got Twinkie we thought that there may be some things that are “off” neurologically. For maybe the past year there have been a few episodes where she will just be doing her...

I feel our youngest cat always has issues. I will never give up on her. Since she was very sick with FIP last year she has not pooped in the box on her own. I don't know if its behavioral or something else. She has been to the vet a multitude of times , we are there at least once a month. We...

Our vet started Twink on this yesterday. I know there are side effects one being diarrhea. Which after 2 doses she seems to have. The vet is supposed to call me today with results from her blood panel. Has anyone used this med that had side effects? Do they eventually go away? I don't want to...

Our cat is still scratching , the vet is really no help. I am trying to take things out of her diet and I think I'm doing it wrong. Is chicken or fish a higher allergen? Or maybe I should start somewhere else. I scoured and came up with a list of foods that are fish free, NOT easy. I have been...

I have 1 cat that has stress induced over grooming. Well our other cat 1.5 has been itching like crazy the past few days and I can't figure out why, I have been checking for fleas, no, I don't see any redness. Their food has not change, wet food only and a variety of instinct, OMG and Merrick...

First off do cats need actual baths? I have only bathed Twink as she had poos everywhere and of course needed it. Second my kittens nails are always so long and its a struggle to trim, any tips for one person trimming them. Sometimes I can get a nail or 2 when they are snoozing lol I have...

Twinkie is licking herself bald again. I think there are multiple issues again, stress, possible food allergy . Twink has stress issues we found out in April. As well as digestive problems. I switched her to Sheba as Tiki was giving her her liquid poos. I am going to stop the Sheba and I have...

lol we haven't used our front door since last July when our kitten got out and was missing for 2 days. She likes to bolt through any door as soon as it opens ,whether it is a closet, cabinet, the backdoor. We have used the back door since there is a closed porch there and we can get her inside...

I have 2 cats both 1.5 yr old. When we first got them we fed a mix of dry and wet. then the younger of the 2 got sick and loosing weight and we fed more wet to get her to eat, pretty much anything she would eat. At some point we phased out dry not for any specific reason, they seemed to like...

Twinkie was sitting on my lap today and I noticed her neck looked red, I took off her collar and it looks like possibly a bite. The fur is flat in the spot. Which is weird since it was so loose. The irritation is on the side that she lays on all the time. I took the collar off, and I won't put...

Is there a food that is good for sensitive stomachs? Is it normal for cats to throw up? Twinkie seems to be a sensitive cat. When she was sick she could eat anything and not have issues. I fed her what ever she wanted to get weight on her. Now she seems to get runny poos often as well as...

I am back , I really thought the poo problems where solved. She is sometimes pooing in the box sometimes not. I have narrowed it down to 2 possible issues, but then I could be completely wrong. 1. She wants the box PRESTINE when she has to go. Problem with this we work and are gone 9 hrs a day...

I need some tried and true tips on how to train cats not to rush into rooms, out doors, and to not go where they shouldn't. I have 2 cats both 1yr and 2 birds (14 yr old cockatiel and 8 yr old Quaker) When we had the dogs , I trained them to not jump on the cage or bother with the birds. Took a...

I have been struggling with anxiety this month concerning out youngest kitten Twinkie. We got the best news this week that she is declared CURED of FIP! I am so flipping happy. We have also been dealing with her not using the litter box for #2 since June. Our foster cat left a few weeks ago and...

ugh, Woke up and its everywhere , poor kitty. She had loose stools last night too (just once) . Do I still feed her? I know with dogs you stop food and do a bland diet for so long after is it the same for cats? I do have Fitaflora, i can give her that , I think its supposed to help firm up poo...

I have noticed a change in Twinkies demeanor. She is very quiet, yesterday she wanted to spend almost all day on our bed. She did eat, I saw her use the litter box once yesterday after I scrubbed them. The cat we have been watching ( 1 month) is still here , could the constant space switching...

we are still having litterbox issues. I think it is fear based possibly. I have moved the boxes all over, tried every litter. She will only poop if I stay with her at the box, which is fine but if im not home she goes where ever she wants (just poop) I was thinking about trying a few different...

I don't think this is bad behavior but maybe I am wrong. I am hoping someone can give me some insight. One of our kittens , she is 1 year and 2 months, when she naps or sleeps with my husband she lays on his lap , when she sleeps or naps with Me she ALWAYS has to sleep and snuggle in my neck...
