So Phoenix hasn't really eaten in a couple of days. Took him to the vet today. She did X-Ray and his tummy was full and he had tons of stool in his intestines. He was given an enema and did poop for them. The vet thought maybe he ate something that he shouldn't have like a toy maybe. I am super...

About 3 months ago I took Phoenix to the vet because he wasn't himself. They found blood in his urine and he was diagnosed with cystitis. He was put on pain meds. A couple weeks later he didn't improve and was monitored for a couple of days. They found blood in his urine and crystals. He was...

I have had a terrible year fighting an illness and am slowly getting better. I was able to keep up on feeding the cats and changing their litter, but that's about it. Recently I have been able to do a little more and have been deep cleaning my house. There is fur everywhere! I have managed to...

So Phoenix has crystals in his urine. This is my third cat to have UTI issues. The vet started him on prescription Royal Canin while he was in the hospital. In the past for other cats Science Diet has been what was recommended. The cost is nearly the same and ingredients look pretty similar. I...

I am thinking seriously of switching to Pine litter. Both of my cats are almost 2 years old. They used pine litter in the shelter, but I adopted them over a year ago. I recently switched to non clumping clay litter and they have no issues. I would like to switch to pine as I use up the...

It's been a little over a year since loosing Oscar. I only had a short time with that sweet boy, but we had a deep bond. I was blessed beyond blessed to have him. We truly rescued each other. He helped me so much with my depression and anxiety. I thought loosing him would send me back into the...

So what is everyone's best method of keeping up with litter tracking every where? I have tried everything! I currently am using a high sided litter box to prevent it from getting everywhere. Then I have it on top of a big doormat, but litter still is getting tracked everywhere! I used to use the...

So today I heard a crash in the laundry room and found Ash sitting in a puddle of laundry soap....an entire giant size container all over the floor all over Ash and Phoenix too because he followed me in.... I gave them both baths to rinse them off and shut the door to keep two nosy cats and...

Is it safe to move the location of the litter box ? I don't want any accidents, but practically it makes more sense for it to be across the room. We have two litter boxes for two cats and they both use both. I just want to move one across the room. Its a big open area.

Both of my cats have started to scratch the wall right by their main litter box. After they use it, they burry, then before getting out they scratch at the wall. They have another smaller litter box in another area of the house and it doesn’t happen by that one. I’m not sure what to make of it...

I have always let my cats graze on dry food throughout the day and then give them some wet food at night. I have never had a problem with cats over eating. Until Phoenix.... This guy is a piggy and now his sister has decided that every time he eats she should too. I was using a feeder that...

Phoenix is at the stage of life where he is nearly full grown, but still very much a kitten. I honestly don't think he's aware of how big he has gotten ( my 12 year old nephew is going through a similar faze) . Well anyway last night we heard a crash from downstairs and found this....I am trying...

We have always been a one cat family. I have never had the desire to have more than one cat. As many of you know I adopted a sweet crazy playful kitten that I named Phoenix soon after loosing my beloved Oscar. It's been great, and he's a good boy. Yet something was missing. Phoenix was happy...

I know dry food isn’t the best for cats, but unfortunately our lifestyle dictates that we have to leave dry food out. I have always given my kitties wet food at night, and let them graze during the day. With my work schedule this is what works best. I am looking for a good dry cat food. Right...

Phoenix is a very good boy. However he uses his claws way to much. He kneeds with his claws and digs pretty deep and when scared his claws come out immediately and he scratches me. I’m not provoking him he’ll be contently laying on my lap and my husband will walk in the room, or he hears a...

When Phoenix came home with me for the first time last week he played and explored for 6 hours straight. Little guy was clearly super happy to no longer be in cage in the shelter! His favorite go to was the cat tower and the toy mouse that dangles from it. He managed to pull it completely off...

I'm the type of person who just needs to have cat. So even though I just lost Oscar and the pain is deep, I went to go see what the Shelter had. Phoenix is from a large group of cats that my local shelter got from other shelters in the path of Hurricane Dorian. I decided to name him Phoenix...

It was to soon for him to go, but he had a good life. I got Oscar from the humane society. He had 3 failed adoptions and was said to be a biter. He was purring in my arms the second I met him. He made it very clear he was going home with me. He was naughty ... always getting into everything and...

I opted to only treat Oscar with steroids after talking with my vet. Oscar has serious anxiety issues when at the vet, and turns into a biting monster. We agreed that attempting chemo would not give him a good quality of life since he would have to go weekly. My vet suggested prednisone for...

Three years ago I lost my very precious Mini to feline leukemia. She had it when I found her and I took the best care of her I could. She lived to be 4 years old. After she passed I got a new cat Oscar. Oscar has just been diagnosed with lymphoma. My heart is broken. I plan on taking good care...
