    Is my cat choking on food repeatedly?

    This is the asthma cough pose it’s probably not linked to the eating. Make a vet appointment and try to video the cat cough.

    Laying in litter box but peeing normally

    Sounds like a urinary tract infection. Barring a medical issue cats will lay in their litter box for security to ease anxiety. It’s an odd place for security but the familiar smell seems to be it.

    Cat coughing

    My cat has asthma and I can say it doesn’t look like your kittys sneeze/cough. It does look more like the nasal cavity is irritated. Hope you get to the bottom of it!

    How much fish is too much?

    I would ask your vet with regards to female cats but with some male cats too much can cause a urinary blockage. I learned that lesson the hard way.

    Long Term High Dose Prednisolone

    Budesonide is a long term option with less side effects especially if your cat has a heart murmur. My cat was on it for 4 years due to chronic intestinal issues. You may want to ask your vet about it.

    Injured tail - limp and straight down

    Yes I had a near feral cat I adopted scaling the walls at the vets office at his neuter appt. He came back with his tail in the down position. It took about 3-4 weeks for the tail to go to normal. He may have did something to his back bouncing around at the vets office. May just need time to heal.

    Cat started peeing in our toddler’s room. Please help.

    9 times out of 10 it’s a medical issue so it would not be his fault. Urinary tract infections are the culprit usually. If you rule out medical issues cats will do this due to feeling insecure due to changes in the household or outside.
