24 years, 6m, 6 days old. We had him from the time he turned 6 weeks of age as mum had repeatedly rejected him. Owner forced her to nurse a few times a day as well as supplemental bottle feeding. She finally had him completely weaned onto wet foods by the age of 6 weeks when we took him. He...

Putting this here, because not sure else where to put it. As most of you are aware of, very elderly cats seldom groom themselves any longer. However they are evidently very aware of when they look good :) Gave my almost 24 year old a really good(more than normal) brushing today. D*mn but he was...

My 24 year old cat is showing potential dental pain. He is refusing anything but a warm fdr puree. He is grinding his teeth repeatedly. Brief history. He was diagnosed with a genetic issue when he was 10. His teeth tend to crack below the gum line, causing him a lot of pain. Vet said he had seen...

Okay, a bit of background first that helps this make more sense. Our 6yr old male Oskar was a "garbage can kitty". He was rescued from a dumpster after (the rescue is assuming) he was attacked by a dog as a small kitten, before someone knocked him on the head and tossed him into a dumpster to...

We finally had our female Bastet spayed yesterday. Both our other cats have totally rejected her since she came back. Her best buddy who snuggled with her several times a day now approaches, sniffs, snarls, and smacks her before retreating. Our 23 yr old just approached and sniffed her before...

I raw feed, have for years. Commercial grind in the morning as liver is hit and miss, whole meats in the evening. Our 10m old kitten Bastet was eating her quail the other evening. She gets a half quail and usually scissors off just enough to swallow, but the silly girl tried swallowing a quarter...

How common is it for a female kitten to reach 7m and show no signs of coming into season? She was born June 02. Granted, we should have had her spayed in December. Due to covid I wound up out of work for 3 weeks(no pay). Hubby wound up on WCB for a month, so income cut literally in less than...

How old are kittens when they typically enter "teen age" period? Because our 13 week old has grown a LOT, become really lanky, finally discovered "UP". Is up on everything, and has developed a VERY defiant attitude lol. If this is younger than would be expected, could I expect her to come into...

My 6 yr old cat scruffs my 9 week old kitten every time she irritates him. He holds her by the scruff while hunching over top of her. She cries every time, but once he releases her, she comes right back at him. He even dragged her across the floor by the scruff one time. In over 40 years of...

We recently lost our dog to cancer. Keep; in mind that our cat, Mr. Stubbs has lost 4 friends in 3 years to old age or illness. The same day we had to take our latest dog to her final trip to the vet's, he has decided to start attacking our youngest cat(3yrs old) quite viciously. Mr. Stubbs is...
