Bad weather update: as we are in an area affected by tropical storm Hermine, I decided to push the introduction a little faster than I otherwise would. Winston has been staying out to avoid Mimzy, but I want him to stay inside tonight. So far, it hasn't been as bad as I feared, but not ideal...

My kitten just had two vaccines the other day. My receipt from the vet says that if your pet acts lethargic or unusual for over 24 hours after the shots, call the vet back and ask about it. I would recommend you call, especially if you're worried that she's hurting or if anything unusual...

This is Mimzy. She's really more orangey than she looks. I've been trying to get a picture that shows it, but no luck so far.

These are the best I've gotten so far.

Entry Mimzy is the only cat I've ever met that doesn't mind going on car rides.

Thanks for your reply! I have begun brushing her already. I hope her fur doesn't get much longer, though. She already gets stuff stuck between her toes sometimes. It's interesting that she could change colors! She already seems to have more orange in her fur than before. Our vet wants to wait...

I have a 3mo kitten that my sister found in a parking lot at 6 weeks old. Mimzy is a dilute tortie, I believe, with various shades of brown and orange and some white on her chin and belly. She is probably between 3 and 4 lbs and has very long legs and tail right now. Her ears are large and...

Is he doing anything unusual besides hiding under the bed and not eating? What makes you think that he is in pain? How long have you had him? If it hasn't been very long, he might just be nervous about his new surroundings, and tired because change is stressful. Did you try giving him treats...

If you live with other people or had guests right before this started, that could be the issue. Somebody (unintentionally, I hope) could've tripped over her, bumped her, or perhaps tried to pick her up and move her out of their way. Many small children don't know how to properly interact with...

I don't know anything about cat allergies, but my cat recently had horribly runny and excessive earwax. I asked the vet about it and they sold me a $12 bottle of animal ear cleaning solution (most commonly for dogs after swimming). I was told to put it in his ears and clean them every 2-3 days...

My 8yo cat was originally a neighbor's kitten. The neighbor left Winston and his sister outside full time at a very young age, and unfortunately his sister disappeared. Years later, Winston spends more and more time indoors as he gets older. He is neutered but still gets into scraps, and it...

I have an adult indoor/outdoor cat and a 3-month indoor kitten. Dry food: 4health, $23/18lbs/~2.5 months = $9.2 Wet food: 4health, $1/13.5oz can/3 days = $10 (I currently use up one can every 4 days but I expect an increase soon as Mimzy gets bigger. Winston doesn't really care for wet food...

I second Grr Cat's idea. We have an 11 week old kitten who we found in a parking lot. She was tiny and thin, and we increased her portions until she was so full after mealtime that she walked with a bit of a waddle! She's been with us for a bit over a month and she's calmed down about food a...
