Well I found a vet with the Purevax thank goodness and he's booked for his shot next week. This is the closest clinic that I initially started using, but moved to another one that does his claw trims $15 cheaper and consistently gets him in the next day instead of waiting a week or longer.

We got ours as a kitten. He’s nearly a year old now and he still gets bitey with me when he’s wound up. What I found works is I make a horrible high pitched EEEEE sound. It really breaks the spell. I used to have to repeat it a few times but now once usually does the trick. I started doing it...

I do plan to have it done although none of the others, for our protection as well as his. He’s a feisty little dude and has broken my skin on more than one occasion although he doesn’t seem so bitey with anyone else. He’s identified me as his playmate and still can get rough even though I don’t...

As this thread is nearly 8 years old, I thought I’d check to see if there are any updates on the rabies vaccine for cats. The vet I’m currently seeing only has imrab Boehringer Ingelheim which turns out to be adjuvanted. The receptionist felt that he wouldn’t order a different kind for just one...

No, the procedure was very basic, a shot of ketamine and painkiller, he went to sleep. It took 10 minutes start to finish. I even got to assist. He woke up at home and had no idea anything was done, it was hard to keep him from his usual romping around. If it had been at a hospital, he would...

I contacted the vet, he said that he’d never heard of it before but would check and get back to me, which he did. It turned out that it was indeed reaction to either the anaesthetic or the stuff he put in his eyes. He said that it would come back in 1 to 3 months. Within a couple of weeks it was...

Thanks for your reply. Have you heard of any other cause for a sudden alopecia spot like that on a cat? The only other time I’ve seen it was a cat who lost hair was on his neck from scratching at fleas, and it wasn’t bald like this.

Thats awful. Poor kitty, poor you. Did they rule out some kind of poisoning?

We just had our 6 month old male neutered yesterday by an at home vet. He woke up fine, felt good enough yesterday to feel playful, has been eating and using the litterbox as normal. This morning he acted completely normal too, like he didn’t even know anything happened to him. But then I was...

We bought plastic hallway runner from the hardware store and laid it down over the carpet in front of the box. It’s much easier to clean when kitty has an accident.

We also have a high energy kitten around the same age. I got one of those tunnels that zips into a donut shape off Amazon and he absolutely loves it. Even though we give him a couple good workouts a day with the stick and string, and the laser he spends a lot of time amusing himself bouncing...

we had a senior cat with arthritis, so we put a stool next to the bed to make it easier for her to jump up. She got a monthly injection of cartrophen which seemed to help a lot. She also started pooping out of the box and we never could figure it out or get her to stop. But by that time, she had...
