Is there anyone else besides me in the path of IKE? I live in Houston and I am not evacuating. I've never been through an actual hurricane hit before so I'm really nervous. I have water, food, cat supplies, but my biggest fear is being without power which means no air conditioning, etc. etc...

Hi, my cat Kabou either bit me or gouged me with her claws last Saturday. It wasn't intentional and I won't go into the whole story now. I have a bad infection that so far is not responding to antibiotics. I am under the care of a dr. I initially thought she clawed me, but there are four...

This is so strange............Brandon my male cat began having somewhat loose stools about two weeks ago, not diarrhea. He has a history of bartonella which he was treated for a year and a half ago with success. I will take a stool sample in to the vet as soon as I can "get a fresh one" to...

I have two cats, male, Brandon and female, Kabou. They have been living together, with me, for almost 2 years and both will be 3 years old this spring. I had Kabou first, then adopted Brandon. They are spayed and neutered. Brandon has always seemed jealous of Kabou and is very needy and...

I am so excited I just had to share this. Kabou has had off and on intestinal issues for a long time and we still haven't come up with a diagnosis. She is scheduled for an ultrasound next Tuesday. Anyway, a co-worker has just started feeding her cats a raw rabbit diet that she made and she...

Hi, I'm going to try to keep this as short as possible. I did do a search for IBD on the site and haven't quite found what I am looking for. Kabou, my female who is 2, has for the past several months gone through spells of lethargy and not liking her food and taking only a few bites. It would...

The one wet food, if you can call it that, that my female Kabou really loves and eats with any consistency since all the recalls is plain cooked chicken. Actually, she was a little finicky even before the recalls. I was feeding Natural Balance canned. She will like a wet food for a day or two...

I received this email from an Animal Rescue today. This is so sad. I would take him, but I have two other cats and he needs to be the only pet. There is a picture of him in the original email and more details. If you can help, please contact Edna Taylor. Thank you. From: Taylor, Edna...

I am having a hard time determining if my male cat Brandon is going too far when playing/wrestling with my female Kabou. They are both around 2 yrs old. I have had Kabou for 2 years and Brandon for 1 year. It seems like this aggression if that's what it is, has escalated. They have always had...

Kabou has been very picky about her wet food for the last couple of months. She has gone through these periods before, but not for as long. I attributed it to hairballs and ran it past my vet about a month ago. She agreed that unless there were other symptoms, hairballs were probably the...

I have posted before about trying to transition Brandon my male cat over to wet food completely. It has not worked. The only wet food he will eat is fish, no matter how I disguise it. He hates it. In the fall the vet said he needed to loose a couple of pounds. He weighed 16.4 pounds and she...

Ladies, I have to be honest, I am about ready to give up trying to feed wet food to my male cat Brandon. I've had him since last April, he's about a year and a half old, and he's addicted to dry. He weighs 16.4 pounds and needs to lose at least two pounds according to the vet. The only wet...

Hi, not sure if this is the right place to post this, but my male cat Brandon who I adopted in April almost always has his claws out. He kneads with them out, has them out when when touching me, and it hurts! I do have them trimmed at the vet when I can, but of course they grow back quickly...

I have noticed that a number of you mention feeding a rotation diet. Maybe I am dense, but I don't fully understand what that means and what is involved. I noticed that Wyson website also recommends a rotation diet for cats. Is it a combination of home cooked, raw and commerical? If so, how...

Hi, for the last few days I have been trying to start a thread and when I hit the submit button, I get the message that I am not logged in. When I log in again, my post is gone. Can you help me? Thanks, Cris

I have had my two cats on Hills ID dry and wet for a few months at the recommendation of my vet. The bacteria causing Bradon's intestinal issues appears to be finally eradicated and Kabou is now back to normal as well. We never did find out what caused her diarrhea and upset. Anyway, I have...

I have posted numerous times about Kabou and Brandon and now need some additional input. For background, see the thread below. http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/showthread.php?t=89822 Since the first of April when I adopted Brandon as a companion to Kabou, I have been fighting stinky runny...

Hi, I am just about at my wits end. I adopted a cat Brandon in April as a companion to my resident cat Kabou. It became clear early on that Brandon had some health issues which I thought had been resolved after $1,000 of vet bills. His main problems were tape worms, hook worms and large...

Hello, I have posted before regarding my adopted cat Brandon who came to me with tape worm and hook worms. He had runny stinky poops. He has been on antibiotics for 10 days due to a lot of bacteria in his intestines from the hook worms. He was wormed and will return this week to the vet...

Hello all, I just wanted to pass along some information on giving meds to uncooperative kitties. I have read all the posts and threads on this issue and none of the methods have worked for me. Not that the suggestions are not good, just that my newly adopted cat, Brandon, is way too crafty...
