Hello all. It's been a while since I logged on. I'll try to keep my question concise: I've lived with my sister and her male cat, Goose, since 2015. Our boys get along well. They play, they cuddle, and are buds. We have 2 boxes - one in my room, and one on the landing at the top of the...

I can't decide if I find this behavior really weird or somewhat cute.Fate led me to a kitten roughly 2 weeks ago at the local HS - little female already named Winnie. Took it as a sign and brought her home. So glad I did because she's buckets of entertainment.She and Allen are getting on so...

Hi everyone!So if you want a short backstory, I moved in the middle of May from Ohio to SC. With the help of the Prozac, Allen handled the 8+ hour drive and overnight hotel stay like a CHAMP. The Prozac has really done wonders for his anxiety and nervousness, and he's still got little more...

I will try to make this concise and easy to follow.  I am the lucky mom to a fur baby - Allen, a 3yo kitty I adopted at 4 months of age.  He is my loveball and I adore him completely.  Ever since I got him, he has essentially been a solo cat, as I have not had the space really to get him a...

So to make a long story short, Allen has been vacationing at his grandparents' since Memorial Day weekend and I might be getting him back this Sunday.  He wasn't supposed to stay with them this long, but I'm grateful that he has - my water heater flooded my apartment over Memorial weekend and...

Allen has been on a good regiment of 1/4c. Science Diet adult indoor AM and PM, and a 1/2 can of wet food PM since his UTI in April.  Initially he had no problems, but for the past 1.5 months he has had no desire to eat the SD. I thought I had maybe just bought a bad bag, so I went to Petco and...

I got a reminder card in the mail from my vet regarding yearly vaccinations for Allen. I remember hearing more than one person talk or write about how vets will push certain vaccines even though they might not be necessary. Sept 2011, Allen is due for: FVRCP annual Feline leukemia annual...

This is a total pity-me post. But for the past five weeks I've been without my cat Allen, and I am dying. I had to take him to my parents because of the evergrowing rift between my roommate that eventually came to a head. I thought I'd get him back July 30th, which was when I moved in to my...

The title says it all. I am this close to macing my roommate because she's a hypocritical snot with a victim complex I've always had to tiptoe around her on eggshells because her moods swing back and forth. For a few days she acts fine and then she won't talk to me for some reason, like I've...

Allen is probably a medium-haired cat, definitely not short but also not long. He also sheds. A LOT. I can brush him once a day and get multiple balls of hair, but it never seems to help. I have a slicker wire type of brush that I bought at Meijers, but is there any specific type that helps...

Hey all. I live with two roommates in an apartment - one girl is great, the other girl is okay but can be an anal PITA because she thinks everything needs to be done her way, her way is the best way, etc. Anyway, she's giving me grief because the kitchen table belongs to her, and aparently she...

Of course, it's a Sunday. And of course, it's easter. I have to wait to take Allen into my parent's vet until tomorrow. But anyway, I'd been noticing some strange litterbox behavior for the past 2-3 days, and it all came to a head this morning at 5:30. Allen's been acting like he's trouble...

So, fingers crossed, I think Allen may now be over his parasite caused diarhhea. Initially a different vet thought he could be allergic to his food, but a failed attempt to transition him over to Natural Balance duck and green pea left him with a massive reoccurence of loose stools. I put him...

Hey guys. So, Allen was diagnosed with giardia on November 5th, after a positive smear and snap test. I was given a 5 day dose of Panacur (liquid), and liquid Metrodinazole. Instructions were one synringe of Panacur for 5 days, and 2ml of Metrodinazole given by syringe 2x a day. It seemed to...

I just noticed this last night, and is this common? It looks like his left canine is wearing a hole in his lower lip Here is the best picture of it, among a few others: It has that yellow/orange crusty stuff in it sometimes, and it's red around the hole. Do we need to see a dentist? I...

So Allen is roughly 5.5 months, and weighed 8lbs at his last checkup. So right now I'd say he may be right under 9lbs. Now that we are getting his Giardia under control, I'm concerned that I may not be feeding him enough. Visibly he looks great, and running your hands lightly over him you can...

Hey everyone. I wish I had a positive update but unfortunately it's still the same old problem. After I got back to my apartment on the 25th of October, I gave Allen a few days to see if his system would return to normal. It did seem too - up to the weekend, we had relatively normal poops in...

Hi everyone, this is my first time posting on this board. In mid September I adopted a kitten from a well known local rescue. Allen is currently 5 months old, buff/beige/white in color, and he's my little man who I have become very attached to. I noticed, probably 2-3 days after I brought...
