Hi.
We took home a small black female cat from a shelter a while back.
Its a lap cat,and I usually prefer cats who just enjoy being petted,but I,m wondering if there is a way to train this type of cat,as it is very willful,and the shelter could never tell us its real name.
It started eating...
Hi.
Our cat-3.5 yr old Frisky has just started having blood in her stools.
She is in good spirits,her usual self.Ready to play at a moments notice,and eats,and drinks.
Her nails have not been cut in a really long time because its impossible to get her in her cat carrier because she is too...
Hi.
This is not for me.
A good friend of mine has an 11 year old tabby named "Smokie"
He may or may not have been diagnosed with Pancreatitis.
The vet has said that Smokie should be on enzymes,and Metamucil.
Should they be given at the same meal,or different meals,and if so,should it be...
How do you tell if a cat has trust issues?
I think mine does because it constantly wants to sit our stomachs.Its nice,but too much of it can be disrupting.
It even leads to digestive issues.We have toys etc...
"OoBoo" was abandoned by her previous owner,and i think maybe she feels that we...
When oh when will my cat relax enough for us to just simply pet it.
We got a stray from a shelter in October 2013.
Shelter underestimated its age by a few months,or maybe more.
She is an all Black cat named Ubu
That is the 4th name we have given,because she never responds to any others,and i...
Hi.
Binky,our recently adopted all black female,likes to explore the kitchen because she knows whats in there.
Roaches are hiding,and once in a while she will catch one,toy with it,then eat it.
I give her plenty of coco oil,and she loves it,and the vets all laugh when i tell them.
Is this a...
Hi.
Our newly adopted cat,Binky has been with us since Dec 15th,as we said goodbye to our former cat Ginger on Oct 15th.
We adopted binky from a shelter as a stray,and the age posted there said 2yrs 1month.We took her to a vet who said she was at least a year older than that.
Anytime we try...
Hi.
Just thought i,d mention this.
Seems like when visiting a shelter,if you see cats placed by themselves,then they would be fine being alone more so than a cat placed with other cats in a larger area,and strays offer a lot of affection after being adopted,especially the younger ones.Cats...
Hi all.
We said goodbye to Ginger on thanksgiving.
now we just yesterday adopted a 2yr old black female domestic shorthair named Remy.
She is very affectionate,bur our concern is what she will do when left alone for the first time.She came to the shelter as a stray.
We are going to pick up...
Ginger is now having difficulty pooing.She tried 3x earlier today,and after the third attempt,she threw up,and at the end she almost threw up something that has been stuck,but didnt quite get it out.
The vet we took her to thursday,we just found out that he is one of the,if not,the worst vet...
Hi.
Our tuxedo cat has been struggling going to the litter box to poo.Sometimes she tries to poo but cannot,then she will throw up.
We have changed her food from dry to canned.We use Natural balance ,which is supposed to be limited ingredient.
she is also having hairballs pretty often,and we...
Hi folks.
Haven,t been here in a while.
We have recently been told that our cat may have diabetes,but i,m not totally convinced,because what i,ve heard/read about some clinics,maybe even vets,that make stuff up so they can justify a large bill.
Has anyone else ever heard of this because i...
Hi.
I,m just wondering if it okay to add warm-hot water to her feeding dish,just before feeding,to soften her food??
Since we bought it,she doesn,t want to eat,and i think its too hard for her teeth.She use to be on "Hills Science Diet Light",but it turns out that "Hills" uses chicken by...
