I'm not sure if this goes in health or care, but I'm posting it here because I'm mainly concerned about his health. Move if it's in the wrong spot, it's late and I'm freaking out a little. Fluffy is a twenty-year old orange DSH. He was adopted at three weeks and lived in the same house his...

Mostly this is so I can see if anyone else has the same weird thing with cats and instruments that mine does. So I was practicing my flute the other day, and James comes running out of nowhere and starts rubbing all over the flute, then over me. Then he lays on my sheet music. Then when I start...

So Marcus is on c/d wet because he blocked again. Prior to this, his wet food has been soulistic, blue wilderness, BFF, and tiki cat. Now he's on the c/d and he refuses to eat it. He's on an only wet food diet because of crystals but he's turning up his nose at the food and refusing to eat it...

I put my cats on Innova EVO, but they don't seem to be taking well to it. One of them barely eats it, and the other...the rogue pooper...continuously diarrheas outside the litterbox (right next to it, regardless if it is clean or not) and this has only started since I've been feeding EVO, even...

I feed wet food in addition to dry, but my biggest problem with wet food is that almost everything comes in pate form. Galen won't touch anything in pate, though he'll lick it if I mix it with water and turn it into a soup (but he still ignores most of it). Marcus will try to eat it (he tries to...

So, story on my cats. we have three, two mine and one my roommate's. Galen - siamese/russian blue mix that has grain allergies Marcus - bombay mix that has a history of struvite crystals James - fat orange man currently, they are on: -Natural balance alpha chicken/turkey/duck dry -various and...

I have two cats, and Galen feels the need to play in the litterbox. He's two years old and does this, getting litter and waste *everywhere* in the damn bedroom. I have another litterbox that's covered, but my other cat won't use it because he's too tall. He needs the open litterbox. So is there...

So a few months ago I posted about my cat Marcus who had struvite crystals and was put on Hill's s/d diet by the vet. Since then, he's gained weight, and my other cat, Galen, scratches horribly. He's always scratching and licking, and he's got these awful scabs behind his ears. I remember it got...

So Galen has two behaviors involving the litterbox and I wonder if anyone else has had cats who do that, or know why he does it. The first drives me bonkers. He doesn't just scrape in the box, he plays in it. He scrabbles all around and tosses litter everywhere, even after it was just cleaned...

I have two lovely cats and a beautiful young corn snake. I love snakes, care for the ones at work (I work at a pet store) and I enjoyed spending time with the work snakes so much that I had to bring home a snake of my own! My corn's name is Khan, as in the Wrath of Khan because I'm a scifi nerd...

Dukhat was my beautiful Maine Coon who died in November from HCM. He was only a year and a half. I haven't been able to look at pictures of him until recently without feeling the heartbreak all over again. I was in Florida on vacation at the time, 800 miles away when the vet called me to tell me...

So I have two cats. One, Galen, has food allergies, so I put both him and Marcus on Natural Balance because Marcus will eat anything. Then I had to take Marcus to the vet because he had a blockage in his urethra. Vet told me he has struvite crystals and needs to be on a special diet. I figure...

So, I have two cats. Dukhat I've had since he was a kitten, and at the end of March I adopted Galen from a rescue. When Galen came, a few days later he developed a URI, which he then passed to Dukhat. I got Dukhat treated (eyedrops + antibios), and Galen, since he was abused and is terrified of...

I recently adopted a Siamese mix, Galen, as a companion to my cat Dukhat. Now, Galen gets along extremely well with cats. He and Dukhat are great friends, and they play and chase each other around the house all the time, and follow each other and sleep together. However, Galen is not a fan of...

I'm fairly certain Galen has a URI, since he's got a runny nose and is sneezing a lot. His eyes are fine, and his voice was hoarse for about a day but then it got better. I've been putting l-lysine in both his and Dukhat's food to help, and took Galen in the bathroom while I took a shower so...

New to this site because I realized that, despite my love of cats and copious amount of time spent on the internet, I have not yet joined a cat site! This is problematic. I'm Kathryn, I'm 22 and live in Pennsylvania. I'm graduating college in May and then off to who knows what, since I have no...
