    Suddenly peeing outside the litter box

    I have a one year old cat that has never had any problems with peeing outside the box. But now all of a sudden he has started to do it. Why can that be?  He's got sores on his ears due to allergies and because of that he has a cone on. We take it off each day so he can clean himself, but he has...

    Bald spots

    I noticed a couple of weeks ago that my dads cat had a bald spot on his back. We put a sweater on him to stop him from licking it, and a little fur has grown back. But today I noticed that another cat has a smaller bald spot on her head. There is no way she could have done that herself. Another...

    I feel so guilty...

    It's been almost a week since my baby, my first cat, my love, Malte, was euthinized at home. He's been suffering from CKD for a while and he recently took  a turn for the worse... I gave him the weekend to get better, but he didn't. There was nothing I could do. The thing is I feel really...

    Romeo and Tristan

    I didn't post anything here when either of these cats passed away, because just thinking about it made me cry... One of our cats died just before his tenth birthday in 2012. He was very sick and we had to rush him to the vet to have him humanely euthanized. Going home with an empty carrier is...

    What breed/colouration?

    Hi! I have a (somewhat) new kitty and I'm wondering if anyone knows what breed he might be. When I got his moma, her previous owner told me that she was a mix of holy birman and maine coon. I'm just wondering if she was telling the truth or not. After all, she did sell me a shy, mistreated...

    Feral cat with knotted fur

    I was hoping anyone here could help me with my cat Fox. He's a feral cat I adopted four months ago and he's really sweet. He's much more confident now, but I can not touch him at all. Usually I'm fine with that, but now I saw that he has a pretty big knot of fur on his neck. I don't want it to...

    Raw food making cat sick/nauseous?

    Last week I had to rush to the vet with my cat because she was just lying on the floor under the couch at lunch time, something that's not like her at all! She wouldn't come to the food and when I put it down next to her she just turned away. She also threw up a couple of times. The vet didn't...

    Tips for semi feral cat?

    So, I am getting another cat in a week or two. He's two years old and he's been living at the shelter for almost all of his life. His mother was born outside and so was he. He was apparently more social when he first got to the shelter as a kitten, but then he started hanging with the more...

    Cat ate moldy food

    Earlier today I put two packets of opened wet food, that had gone off, in a bag and tied it up so it wouldn't smell so bad.  But then, one (maybe two) of the cats managed to open up the plastic bag, open up the packets of food and eat some... They couldn't open it completely so they could only...

    Allergies flaring up?

    A few months ago I took one of the cats to the vet for sores that he got from itching. It turned out he had not only sores on his neck, but feline acne and possible some sort of paw fungus too. (I thought it was all the same thing) It all started right after he got vaccinated (which he reacted...

    Skittish cat

    I have a cat that I have had for almost a year now. (10 months) When I first got her she was very shy. She didn't want to be pet, she walked away from me, she growled when you tried to lift her and so on. I found out after having her for about a week that she was pregnant, so she came to me...

    Cat in labor

    My little cat Leeloo has been in labor for a while. She is doing well, but is slightly confused I think. Two kittens are out so far, but the mommy have not removed the umbilical cord from either of  the kitties.  When should I remove it and how do I do it? The first kitten was born 19.53 so...

    How far along is my cat?

    Four weeks ago, I adopted a cat from a lady. I normally want to adopt from a shelter, but the one were we live only had kittens, older cats and cats that needed to be an only cat. None of those suited us for the moment. The cat I got is a beautiful 10 month old maine coon/holy birman mix. Right...
