I trapped a litter of kittens and their mom 3 weeks ago. I got 2 kittens back yesterday after being spayed/neutered and vaccinated etc. They were in foster and I was told they don't seem tame enough to be adopted out. I was to release them back outside but I was so worried with how small they...
Just found a litter of 4 kittens and their mama under my shed. I have not run into something like this before and have no idea what to do. I gave them all food. I'm so worried something is going to happen to them, they are little. They are not trusting of humans. My heart.
Hey everyone!
Murphy just turned a year old on July 5th and just went into her first heat. She has not been spayed yet because she had a really bad infection on her two hind legs due to over grooming. She has suspected food allergies and her legs are finally clearing up after steroids...
Murphy is now on prednisolone once a day for 5 days then every other day for 10 doses as well as amoxicillin. I had to take her in to the vet because she had hot spots all over her neck and started developing a rodent ulcer on her mouth, she's also been losing fur for awhile. I've been doing the...
Hi everyone! I finally have an estimated bill for Sam's surgery. We discovered he has a blocked salivary gland when he went in for his neuter. He has significant swelling under his tongue which could block his airway and make it hard to breathe if not removed. I am asking for financial help for...
You guys.. :sniffle:
Murphy just got these claw caps put on by a vet tech the other day and I just noticed one is missing and this is the state of her claw. This isn't normal, right??
When we first got Murphy the vet tech we got her from (she was fostering her) suspected that she had ringworm so they were medicating it while we were waiting for her to come home to us. However once we had her and took her to our vet they said it was not ringworm, and it wasn't getting any...
When we took Sam in to be neutered they found a blocked salivary gland and recommended a vet visit. Today we had an appointment and apparently it's so rare for this to happen to cats that not a lot of veterinarians do the surgery. I'm stressed and sad at the same time. The financial burden is...
Okay! I said I would make a new introductory post since when I first joined TCS back in 2011 I only had one kitty and now I have 7 living in my home!
First off, my name is Yvonne. I am 32 and I live in Iowa. I have an 8 year old daughter and I am married. I am a before/after school program...
Hi everyone! I had posted a few days ago about two cats that I found outside. They have no microchip, and I've reached out to numerous sites like Facebook, PawBoost, NextDoor and the animal shelter has my information. No one is claiming these babies and they need to be spayed&neutered. They are...
Hi everyone. It's been ages since I have posted here but I am not really sure what to do anymore. Phaedra is now 1 year and 3 months old. Currently weighing around 6 pounds. I have treated her twice for a bacterial& yeast infection in her left ear. Each time the vet gave me Mometamax to put into...
I went out and bought Phaedra a coupe cans of NV Instinct today. I opened up the beef can, and the venison can, and saw this:
It was very dry with that white stuff all over. Is this normal? Looks absolutely disgusting.
I started feeding Phaedra some chicken as a treat (well, to my understanding was a treat, but apparently she got a meal her first time, haha) and I was wondering how many times you can freeze and unfreeze meat? I bought the meat unfrozen, then froze it, thawed it to cut off some for Phaedra (not...
I bought some of this chicken yesterday and cooked it for myself, and gave some to Phaedra. I was wondering if this would be an ok chicken to feed her as a treat every now and then? I'm assuming if so, I should feed it raw. http://www.justbarechicken.com/jb.cfm?p=Learn_More_Mission&nav=meet the...
I have had Phaedra on Wellness kitten formula: http://www.wellnesspetfood.com/product-details.aspx?pet=cat&pid=22#guaranteed-analysis since she was about 8 weeks old. All this time I thought Wellness was grain free.. but it's not, only her canned food is! Phaedra itches at her face a lot and I...
My 7month old suddenly stopped wanting to eat her wet food, she's been eating it since she was around 8 weeks old. She still eats her dry food but refuses her wet food anymore. She has always been given Wellness kitten wet food. Does anyone have a cat that stopped eating their wet food? The only...
