    Strange vomiting..

    I did not see it the first time. The second time, I only heard it. The third time it was just clear water after she had drank too quickly, and I saw it happen. Then after a few hours of no food and water I tried to let her eat a little, and at that point she threw up a small bit of food - less...

    Strange vomiting..

    No, I'm sorry, I mean nothing solid. It's just all yellowy liquid with a few tiny little specs of the seed stuff. It was only the two times that it happened, and the second time was much smaller than the first as if she just didn't get it all up the first time.  Her stools look normal, although...

    Strange vomiting..

    I just can't figure it out, because nothing is coming up when she vomits, really. Normally when she eats non-edibles, it's in very little pieces. The sock she tried to eat had tiny holes in it, about half the diameter of a dime, for instance.  Thank you, I was planning on having her get some...

    Strange vomiting..

    I have a one year old kitten who has not been sick since she was 6 weeks old. I believe she has Pica, but I have not seen a vet about it. She likes to eat pieces of my socks when I'm not watching her, and she'll chew on my hair when I'm asleep. Plastic bags, purse straps, the couch, you name it...

    Kitten is chubby?

    Lol the "spay sway"... My Biscuit definitely was spayed earlier than her sister, so maybe that's why. I'm also curious if high protein food yields a bigger cat? Lengthwise, and muscularly, I mean... Maybe there is a thread about this already somewhere... She's just so long already, I feel like...

    Kitten is chubby?

    Exactly! My kitten's sister is is lean and doesn't have a problem like this. And she was fed adult Cat Chow before her owner switched to IAMs Kitten; and the kitten is given an unlimited amount of food. I know the healthier food I get my kitten is higher calorie, but it still doesn't make sense.

    Kitten is chubby?

    So, my kitten is 24 weeks and 3 days old, and she already has a little swinging tummy pouch.  I'm not sure what to do, she seems fairly active except there are days when I am not around for a good ten hours, so perhaps she isn't as active as I think? She gets fed a combination of Innova, Blue...

    When do kittens stop growing?

    Not sure if this helps any, but the last time I could hold my kitten so that both hands covered her, she was around 3-4 weeks old. The last kitten I saw grow to maturity took almost three years to stop growing (noticeably, anyways.) Aside from his gut, that is.  But, a friend of mine has...

    New Declawing?

    It must be this. Near as I can figure anyways. Minus the toe pad thing.. How strange! I never knew there WERE different methods, so hearing about it was definitely interesting. He must have meant the break the last knuckle in half and take away the claw part, leaving the rest to reset? Ugh, gross.

    New Declawing?

    Tendonectomy sounds disgusting! But no, this cat definitely has no claws and has full range of motion in it's little paws. The paws look and move exactly as a cat with claws, and it's been five years so I'm guessing there were no complications. No idea about the procedure other than that...

    New Declawing?

    I heard about something interesting concerning a new method of declawing. I know most people here are completely against it, and I have no desire to declaw my own kitten (mostly because I love when she climbs up my leg to kiss me ) but my parents have always had their cats front paws declawed...

    Kitten likes to stick her nose in mine?

    My 11-wk old Biscuit does this, too, only she tends to take it a step further. I get woken up daily by her little "face baths" and her favorite part seems to be licking the inside of my nostril.   It hurts like the dickens but I don't have the heart to make her stop. (Not to mention that when I...

    kitten dropping little stools..

    Things cleared up after the vet recommended taking her off of the antibiotics early. She still is having gas - she won't eat her Innova or Wellness Core without some of the kitten chow sprinkled on top or wet food thrown in - but it is becoming rare and I'm hoping some more probiotics might...

    What brands do we like, and which do we dislike?

    The cats in my family have been through so many foods.. Iams was popular ten or so years ago, and after we realized it wasn't too great, my cats went through a variety of random brands before falling into the Science Diet trap. Now they eat and love Royal Canin, which I know isn't free of bad...

    kitten dropping little stools..

    I have an almost nine week old kitten. She had some issues a few weeks ago that the doctor said was due to a bacterial infection from switching from kmr to kitten food. She was dealing with diarrhea. She's been on antibiotics and probiotics since then. The diarrhea stopped and she seems fine...
