    Advice Appreciated...

    Tell him exactly what you have written here, or ask him to read it. Men are big and loud with deep voices and aggressive to a cat. MANY cats are terrified of men. He has to have patience, sitting quietly, talking softly to her and leaving treats. Have him pick up and cuddle the boys in front of...

    How can I get my elderly cat to like his pine pellets box? Has chronic constipation

    i would definitely get some Delectable Lickables in the stew flavors to mix his meds and miralax in. I have given it to my cats for years and they have never turned it down. i tried something with my little Molly that may help you, I got some hard treats that she likes and put them in a baggie...

    Hairball and not eating

    Oh, I am so sorry, but I am glad you found that and are watching him! Make sure you put some of it in a baggie and bring it to show them. I’ll pray he just chewed on it……

    What’s wrong with her nipple??

    Cats sometimes chew on themselves or scrape the nipple, or even have a slight discharge. The best thing to do is to show that picture to your vet and see what they say. Almost always it is nothing. Do keep an eye on it though, if anything changes, like a lump forming, bleeding, or anything...

    Hairball and not eating

    He may be just sick with something. My cats get that way once in a while. But they are usually better in a week.

    Weaning Off Prozac Questions

    I would ask the vet if you could go with maybe half a pill every other day? As for the urine output, I have noticed a tremendous difference in my cats input by simply setting small bowls of water around the house in unusual places. I have one sitting just inside my bedroom door and see cats...

    Kitten fell from about a two foot drop, should I be worried?

    As long as she gets a little better as time goes by just keep watching her! Eating and going the bathroom are good signs! A hurting cat won’t eat…..

    Hairball and not eating

    I buy it in the tub, real butter with oil. I let it soften a bit (they eat it easier) and scoop a teaspoon out on a butter knife, sliding it off the end with my finger.

    Hairball and not eating

    I am pretty sure he does have an upset stomach from that hairball incident. Offer him plenty of water and let him rest for now. I give my cats about a teaspoon of butter 2-3 times a week to help pass hairballs. They really like it a lot more than the gel. Butter has almost zero lactose in it, so...

    Kitten fell from about a two foot drop, should I be worried?

    Is she any more active yet? She may have hit her head and is dazed and scared. Does she walk normal when she does? If she is still unsteady after a hour or so, I would have a vet look at her. Are her eye pupils the same size and reactive to light? If not get her in. Usually as long as a kitten...

    My Sweet Lola is at the Rainbow Bridge

    I still have my Chrissy's little food dish, her blanket and her collar. I had other cats so it was impossible to keep them out of her things, so I packed them up a few days later, to keep them 'hers'. Now, almost twelve years later, they bring me comfort, but then they were devasating to see...

    CHYLOTHORAX

    My one little boy was diagnosed with leukemia 5 years ago at 5years old. He was given 'days' to live. Severe respiratory symptoms, too weak to stand, lost 1/2 his body weight. I started him on DMG after some research, a immune building supplement. I also started all of them on this and LifeGold...

    CHYLOTHORAX

    Thank you so much for all that info! I am going through possibly this with my little Molly, she has fluid build up around her lungs and did not respond really to lasix. My vet did say her heart could be thickened, it is hard to tell on cats. the edema goes in instead of making the heart bigger...

    Intermittent carpet pooping

    I really think she will, she is just a baby and has to learn. Maybe change one of the boxes out to a different litter and see how she does. She amy not like the litter for pooping. Some cats are very picky that way. Make sure you are using a cat urine REMOVER, it has enzymes that actually...

    Temperature and the time before birth

    If her belly is lower, the kittens must have dropped, which can still be a few days befroe birth. The fact that her stomach is getting hard is a sign of prelabor.
