    Please help very worried

    That sounds distressing! I can't even imagine what you must feel and having to go through that! It's a very good decision taking her to the vet and hopefully they'll figure out exactly what's wrong. I don't know for sure what might have caused this, but is there any possibility that an actual...

    My cat isn't getting along with my new kitty

    Have you had the new kitten for long? I had a similar situation recently and my best advice to you is give it time! First separate the two for a few days like Aislinn suggested and slowly introduce them. My older cat was actually scared of the two new kittens! She kept hissing and growling at...

    Stinky poo

    From my experience, dry food is basically a recipe for stinky poo! I say this and I still give my cats and kittens the occasional dry food when I'm in a rush and can't prepare food for them. Have you considered making homemade cat food? It can be much cheaper if you shop carefully for chicken...

    Cat stinks, food suggestions?

    In my experience it's definitely the food. Something that is not working for him. I say try and experiment with different varieties, giving it a few days in between until you find that it stinks no more. My best bit is for you to find something that is pure animal protein with no vegetable/fruit...

    When feeding chicken hearts and gizzards

    I usually cook and chicken hearts and gizzards and then blend them as much as I can and add the supplements depending on the needs and age of each of my furry bodies. I occasionally give them small bits and pieces raw with no cooking, but I don't like doing this too often as I'm afraid of...

    My 5 month old kitten always acts like she is starving

    Like others have said, she may not be getting enough food. I have had a similar situation when I had two kittens (brother and sister) the boy is healthy and very fluffy while the girl is very thin. I have noticed that almost always shortly after every meal she comes meowing wanting food. I...

    Our Longhaired Kitten Went Crewcut! Can You Pls Explain?

    I have a 2 year old cat that does the same thing!! The poor thing gets so hot in summer that I really appreciate her change of coat, as she'd be always looking for cool places to lie in. Her winter coat is starting to get thicker and bigger again, just in time, too, because it's getting rather...

    Afraid to get my cat a companion

    I agree with above posters. A vet trip is never fun to any cat, or pet for that matter. It's very overwhelming with all the different smells and sudden noises. It's got to be distressing to suddenly be out of one's environment and to have all these cat and pet scents all of a sudden. A companion...

    New kitty resident cats not amused

    I got two new kittens (one male, one female) about a week and a half ago, and my female 2 years old resident cat didn't like that. She hissed and growled at them when introduced to them after having them for two days. It's completely normal. Now my older cat is curious and most of the time tries...

    Keeping outside kitten warm

    I had a similar situation once.  What I did was get a cardboard box, place it on it's side and padded the inside with a pillow covered with an old sweater, and another sweater around the inside of the box, and covered the whole box in an old tshirt, with the neck opening facing the opening of...
