I have been to several free-roaming rescues, where there are like, 20 - 30 cats just hanging out, everyone getting along swell. But my cat refuses to get along with any other cat - we have had many fosters come and go through our house in the "guest room", and my cat absolutely refuses to even...

I have an indoor/outdoor cat, and he was in a bad fight two weeks ago. Initially I saw two distinct bite marks, and four abscesses developed (one where each tooth went in) - two on his chin, two on his ear. I started Clavamox early on, and all four drained and healed within a few days.  But...

My cat has a hidden abscess on the top of his paw. There is no opening or wound, just a swollen lump that is obviously fluid-filled (the vet can tell when she feels it). He has been limping for 5 days, and doesn't seem to be getting any better.  Day #1 - saw the vet, did xrays, concluded it was...

My cat (3 1/2, female, spayed) has been smacking her lips for about a month, but very  rarely. This happens once or twice a day, and it is only ONE smack - there is no head shaking or mouth licking. It is only when she just wakes up from a nap. She has no other symptoms, there has been no change...

I took Ramsay to the vet today because he is having an issue with one of his claws. The vet poked and prodded at his little foot and found that one of his nails is partially torn off (this is where the pus and blood were coming from). Basically, nothing that antibiotics and Onsior and epsom...

My cat has what looks like a thorn above one of her claws (the exact area where they put cat IVs during surgery). She will not let me touch it. Luckily it is on the top of her foot, not the bottom, and she is not showing any signs of pain (she is walking normal, jumping normal, appetite normal...

Any ideas on what is wrong with my cat's eye? It is losing hair, and it is both eyes.  (Taking her to the vet as soon as I can get an appointment.) -No tearing or itching or redness.

I found a white, clay-looking thing in the litter box. It was not next to any pee spots. It is about the size of a nickel. I was googling "bladder stones" and they look similar, so I got worried. I'm thinking it is probably just clay that didn't get processed when the litter was being made...

I am 21, physically disabled, and living with my mom and sister. They both don't like me being here: sister says when I go places when them, she doesn't enjoy herself. Mom says all she hears me do is complain and she doesn't know what to do about it. If they are playing a board game, and I ask...

My cat went in yesterday with the symptoms: 103 fever, lethargy, no appetite, congestion sound when purring. The finding upon examination was congestion in the lungs. The vet was unsure of the cause but suspected URI and prescribed penicillin for me to give as well as gave an injection of it. He...

Does anyone know of a cat (or dog) glucosamine/chondroitan supplement that is in pill form? My cat Mira just had joint surgery and I've been wanting to start her on them. She won't do chewables, because she is so, so picky. Or sprinkle capsules, because of the same reason. The easiest way to...

My 1.5 year old, male, neutered cat "Mr. President" had a ruptured anal gland last week. He was given antibiotics and I did warm compresses.  The wound itself is closing up and no longer infected, but when he poops, a little bit of liquid-poop actually comes out of the wound. My vet did an anal...
