Hey guys, I was wondering if you could help me... Let's start out with the details. Per vet instructions, my kitties get 1c total of EVO Innova Adult dry cat food a day. This has been their diet for about a year and a half. Our 5yo boy, Hobbes, has gotten into the habit of when fed...

Hey guys! A good friend of mine just adopted a kitten (about 12 weeks of age) that is deaf, and she's having a very difficult time training him, because he cannot hear her commands/snapping, etc. Do any of you know of any good sites that have information on how to train a deaf kitty? Or maybe...

Hey guys... Here's a question... I have two 4yo kitties (they combined get 1c of dry Innova EVO per day, as they are on a diet...and they refuse to eat wet food, except for Iams wet Kitten food), and we adopted a 3.5mo kitten about a month ago. Right now, we have him on Iams wet kitten food...

Ok...one of the goofballs in my oddball trio keeps stealing my stuffed animals and putting them in the hall closet! I think it might be Simon, as he's a new guy and the other two have never really been interested in doing that exact activity. Sunny likes to play with my bunny stuffy (which...

Hey guys! So, Simon's now about 3.5mos old, and I wanted to be sure he's on a good diet right now. When he got to us, he'd been a stray (he's been neutered, deflea'd, etc...the works), and was quite malnourished (you could feel his ribs easily, backbone, hips, shoulders, etc.), so I was...

Hey guys! So, a few weeks ago, we brought home little Simon, a three month old kitten, who I brought home for our 4yo Hobbes (and I guess Hobbes' sister, Sunny). Hobbes and Sunny are both 4yrs old, both have gotten a clean bill of health. Sunny's matured to the point where Hobbes' incessant...

Hi guys...maybe you guys can help me. I just brought home a 3mo kitten last Wednesday (so he's been home a week tomorrow), and I just noticed tonight that he has a major swelling in his jaw area, maybe around the root of one of his molars? He's not been eating a whole lot since we brought him...

Hi guys, I was wondering if you guys might be able to lend me your opinions on something. We have two 4yo kitties, litter siblings, male (Hobbes) and female (Sunny). Now that they've reached maturity, Sunny's desiring to be left alone more and more frequently, but Hobbes is still VERY MUCH a...

Hey guys... So, Hobbes' antibiotics are gone, and he's having problems all over again...roaming around to find somewhere to pee, peeing on various soft places (clothing, blankets, etc.), walking around crying...etc. The emergency vet we took him to diagnosed him as having cystitis...which of...

Hi guys...could use your thoughts on this one... A few days ago, Hobbes (boy) had to go to the vet, and had to stay overnight. So, he came home, and I put a dab of vanilla extract on each of their necks (boy do they smell yummy! ). Now, it's been a few days...but his (literal) sister is still...

Hey guys... So, last night, we decided to take our Hobbes in to the emergency vet because he was peeing outside the litterbox, and in the case of urinary issues, we know it needs to be checked RIGHT AWAY. Well, he wound up having to stay the night, because they kept having problems getting his...

Hey guys...question about my Sunny... We discovered a bump (about the size of a biggish bug bite) on Sunny's neck, under the fur. It seems to be quite itchy, because when I feel the area, she's overwhelmed with the urge to itch with her hind foot. Now, I've parted the fur, and didn't see...

Hey guys... Sunny's got ear mites, meaning I should also treat Hobbes... What can I get them at home to handle it? I know it's ear mites...encountered lots of cases in the past...just wondering if you guys could direct me to a way to handle it here at home. Thank you! Rosie*

Hey guys! General question... Some of you may know my two kitties, Sunny and Hobbes. They're littermates, about three years of age...always the most loving pair I've ever owned (and I've had many, many cats in my life). Sometimes I notice that Hobbes gets quite aggressive with Sunny when...

Hey guys, I think I'm confused, or missing something here... I tried to syringe some pumpkin to Hobbes tonight, and I think I must have done it incorrectly, because it just flicked EVERYWHERE when he licked it. Is there a technique I'm missing here?? Also, how much should I give him and how...

Hey guys! Our boy, Hobbes, is having an issue today with soft poop and possible constipation...and he seems like his bum is sensitive, maybe a bit irritated. (He goes to the box, looks like he's trying to poop, a bit of soft poop comes out, and then comes over and complains to me a bit...and...

Hey guys! Does anybody know of a good cat vet listing per state/city? Thanks! Rosie*

So, I've decided that I want to switch my kitties' dry food. I have another thread going asking about Chicken Soup for the Cat Lover's Soul (and was considering feeding them the Adult Light formula), and am seriously considering switching them to that. We've tried a few different types of cat...

Hey guys! Okay, so I just heard about this food, and thought I'd see what you guys thought about it. I was considering trying it out, because we've been looking for something that's healthier than what our babes are currently getting (which is Purina Cat Chow Naturals). So...tell me what...
