Thanks! I have a friend whose cat does exactly that! 😱

Thank you so much for your input and for sharing things I hadn’t considered!! I accidentally posted my original thread before I meant to and I apologize for my typos. Another question I had, but didn’t post is: how concerned should I be that my cat killed a mouse? If he does kill another...

Hi! I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem with their cat. About two weeks ago, my cat Henry and I were watching TV when he jumped up and ran into the kitchen, where he's basically been hanging out from midnight to 8 AM every day since. Last Thursday I got home from work and...

Henry is still at the vet. When I spoke with a vet tech a little bit ago, they told me Henry’s bladder is small so that probably means no blockage. But they can’t get a urine sample from him and may keep him overnight if he doesn’t produce one today. I’ve never been apart from him longer than an...

Thank you so much! I was able to get same day appointment with vet, but they would not let me wait there so I’m at home worrying a lot! I always stay at the vet until they bring Henry back out, but they wouldn’t let me do that today because they are so busy. I’ll keep you posted.

Hello! I am wondering if anyone can tell me what this might be in my cat’s litter. Henry hasn’t gone #1 all day and so I was very relieved when he went to his litter box tonight. He’s shy about going with anyone in the room with him so I waited to check his box until after he finished, only to...

Thank you, Pouncecat1 and FeebysOwner! Henry had his vet appointment this afternoon and the vet, through telephone while I waited outside in the car and Henry was still inside, told me everything checked out with him. His teeth were fine and the vet said his healthy coat and bright eyes were...

My cat, Henry, has always been full of energy, with a big appetite, one so big that I've had to be careful he does not gain weight. In mid-May there were a few days when his appetite and energy were low and he was licking his lips, not at all in relation to his having eating. I got worried and...

Thank you so much, Anoxia! I just saw this, I'm so sorry.

Hi FeebysOwner. Thank you so much! I was hoping it could be crushed, but I called the vet and she said it cannot be. One thing that especially worries me is that even if I am able to dry pill him, I don't have a syringe to follow the pill with water. I've read about something called pill...

Hi again! My cat Henry's spots and scratches (I say this with cautious optimism) seem to be much better, but I'm now having a pilling problem. Henry's vet recommended he take Apoquel to stop his itching. I knew it would be a challenge to give Henry medication, even though this is his first time...

Thank you so much, Mamanyt153! It is entirely possible that I'm missing seeing any fleas or ear mites, which is another reason I would like to see if my vet can give Henry an appointment. Her office currently has strong social practicing methods in place so I am hopeful that I can get Henry...

Thank you so much; both of these articles are very helpful!

Hi, everyone. Since this past weekend, I've been concerned because my cat, Henry, has 4 scratches (2 on the sides of his ears and 2 on his cheeks) and I don't know why. I've inspected him for signs of ear mites and don't see any. I'm using the ointment Zymox LP3 on his scratches and also using...

Hi, I am new to posting on The Cat Site. Though I had two cats, at two different times, growing up, this is my first time to have a cat as an adult. Next month it will be a year since I brought my cat Henry home from the shelter and he brings so much joy and love into my life I just do not have...
