Hello,
My four month old kitten was neutered two days ago (Thursday morning). He is normally a VERY feisty kitten. Always on the move, playing with things, biting you (in play), chasing his kitty friends, and rough housing with his doggy sister.
Today he is very strange. Ever since his neuter...
Hello!
I have three beautiful rescue babies. My first girl is 5 years old, second is 4 years old, and my newest boy is just 4 months old.
I am not a fan of dry food, my cats are fed only canned wet food. However, my female cats will only eat fancy feast or friskies (I know... not good). My...
Hello,
So I have had one of my foster kittens for 2 months and have taken him to three different vets. The first vet took x-rays of his chest and said he was had flat chested kitten syndrome. His heart is shoved off to the left and he has a rapid heart rate, however, no other issues.
The...
Hello,
A little over 6 weeks ago I took on ringworm kittens. They were almost hairless it was so bad. Two weeks ago we had a culture done again to test them, it came back positive yesterday.
They are on terbinafine and have been for a month. They have lime sulfur baths every 5 days (although...
Hey everyone,
Yesterday one of my foster cats started acting strange. She is normally very energetic and since yesterday afternoon she has been very calm. She threw up yesterday and this morning she did not want to eat. Today I got home and the tips of her ears have flopped over, I looked...
Hi everyone, I have two foster kittens that have ringworm (they had a really bad case of it, however, I think some of the hair loss was mites and I believe their previous owners dipped them in pure bleach or another chemical - this is what my vet suspected as well.)
Disgusting I know, but...
Hello everyone,
I rescued two kittens with HORRIBLE ringworm. I mean horrible, two vets said it was one of the worst cases they have seen. We have been treating them for two weeks with lime sulfur dips, lamisil cream on their ears in between dips and a spray called "Fungisan" that came highly...
Ok so a family member made a horrible mistake.
We took on two ringworm kittens and one of the crates they were in was not cleaned out as it was set to the side. One of my family members put a different kitten in that crate (she didn't have ringworm). If I lime sulfur dip her (I already did...)...
Hello,
I have a couple foster kittens. I have had them for around 80 days now and they came to me at 9 days old, so they are about 3 months old. Here is the problem, there are five of them. Three have gone back to the shelter a while back when they hit two pounds because that is when they could...
Hi everyone,
I took on two foster kittens today and noticed as soon as I picked up one of them that they had a flat chest. I googled this because it worried me and the only thing I am seeing is Flat Chested Kitten Syndrome.
However, this seems to be mostly younger kittens. This kitten I got...
Hello,
So today I took on two feral kittens. The pound was going to kill them because they cannot be adopted out.
I have helped "feral" kittens before, but never THIS feral. Any tips will help. I have them separated in dog crates with their litter boxes, hard food and water (and soft blankets...
Hi everyone, I am once again posting about my adult foster cat, Destiny.
I have an adult cat of my own and she does not care for other adult cats. (We thought Destiny the foster cat was 4 months like the shelter said but she is actually 2 years old.. no problem, we love her! )
Anyway, my cat...
Hello,
I rescued a gorgeous girl from a pound with an 80% kill rate. They kept her at the back because she wasn't adoptable. I didn't know this until I picked her up but I don't regret it, she doesn't deserve to die.
She seemed sweet until I got her home where she then ripped my arms apart and...
Hi everyone,
I took on another litter of foster kittens and their momma. This is my second litter this young, so all my experience I can go off is from my last litter. I think the momma cat was previously abused, but she is super sweet with me and loves to rub all over me.
Here is my concern...
Hello,
I was recently reading about how feeding your cats dry and wet food can be harmful to their kidneys and only one should be fed. Can anyone confirm this? My vet knows that I feed my cats both and has never said anything about it and I don't want to be feeding my cats in a way that could...
Hello,
I foster cats and kittens and I just took on a pregnant cat from the pound who is very pregnant. Because she is from the pound, I have no idea when she got pregnant or how long she has been pregnant. Her babies would have been euthanized at birth had she not gotten out, so I took her on...
