    Fat or Mold???

    I just went to feed the cats and opened a can of Friskies 'Saucesations Beef with Creamy Sauce'. I noticed there was some white stuff on top but I'm not sure if it's mold or fat? (Which I know beef foods in particular can be prone to white fatty bits on top) I've only started feeding these in...

    Introducing New Cat, Aggression From Old Cat?

    Ok so I have 4 cats living indoors now that we have moved into a bigger place. Oliver will be 6 years old in April, Pinball is 11 months old and Sally just hit 6 months. A few months prior to moving we had a stray adult calico show up who was named "Cali". We started feeding her and she hung...

    Moving With Outdoor Cat?

    Cali showed up a few months ago and hasn't left. She's a sweet little stray that I and my family have grown quite fond of and now that we're moving next month we can't just leave her behind! I'm already heartbroken about leaving "Punkin" but he's far too feral to get in a crate, we can't even...

    Cat Not Eating After Spay?

    Sally is 12-13 weeks old and got spayed on Friday.....And I'm seriously regretting it. My husband and I were both "off" about having her done so little but she was given to us by a neighbor who was hopeful to see her spayed before she moves. (She also paid for it...) The vet who did it neutered...

    Drooling?

    I had the sweetest calico show up at our complex several days ago, likely in heat due to her howling and rubbing on everything. She's calming down now but omg is she just the most loving cat! She loves to snuggle and puts her paws on my shoulders and just ruuubs her head against me and kneeds on...

    Signs of Pain??

    Today I finally gave in and neutered Pinball. After a day long panic attack over the whole thing, I picked him up this afternoon alive and well. He had a "something up his butt" walk earlier after pick up but that's started to normalize a bit. Still throwing one leg out as he walks though...

    My New Foster

    Never seems to fail that I always end up with some stray in my house. This time it's a tiny (Maybe 4-5 week old?) kitten who ATM we are calling Savannah. My neighbor went to Savannah, GA over the weekend for a small vacation and found this scrawny but feisty bundle of joy by the dumpster. Of 5...

    Estimating Size?

    It has been soo many years since I've had a kitten! Now having Pinball, I'm trying to gauge his adult size. I always figured he would be a tiny guy, all the ferals I feed are small. Though all are female, I have no idea who daddy is unless he is the tom who hung around months ago (before I fed...

    Worried About My Cats Safety!

    My fiance works 3rd shift atm (Rotates 1st, 2nd, 3rd every month) and I normally swap my schedule with his since I don't work. Every 2nd Thursday we are offered pest control services included in our apartment lease. Normally it's just the Orkin guy and if nobody answers the door, they move on to...

    Praire Dog Food?

    I know the Instinct line from Nature's Variety can be fed to cats but does the same apply to Prairie? I'm speaking of canned food, in this case the "Home style" variety. I got 27, 13oz cans for *70 CENTS* yesterday! *happy dance* Most is the Instinct "95%" food but I grabbed what they had left...

    How Do You Tell Someone....

    That their cat is morbidly obese and that how they're feeding him will eventually cause serious issues including death? Only in a nice way. I'm such a wuss at telling people "bad news". I'm walking a dog 3x/week for a woman to help get weight off of her but she also has a seriously obese...

    5yo With "Odd" Behaviors?

    Where to start....Oliver is my 5yo DSH that has been neutered since he was I believe 8 weeks old and ALWAYS been indoors only since he was declawed when he was neutered. We adopted him from a family who also owned his sister but only rehomed him because he was pooping outside of the litter box...

    Help With Upset Tummy!

    I hope this isn't against the rules for this site to ask but my 4.5-5 month old kitten has been having loose stools and gas. My in laws came for a visit and gave both my boys cow milk not realizing it's a no-no. My 5 year old got over his loose stools from it fairly quickly but my little one is...

    Anyone Allergic To Their Cat(s)?

    Ugh! So since bringing home Oliver on Sunday, I have been fairly miserable. Congested, sneezing, headaches from sneezing so much, puffy/irritated eyes, ect. It has been so long since I had a cat that I didn't think about allergies. I've spent small bits of time with cats of course but never been...

    A Couple Questions

    So we finally brought home our new kitty today! He's a 5 year old diluted orange male. His name is Oliver which we had planned to change but like a dog, he comes when called so it will have to stick. Right now he is mostly hiding under the bed. He did his rounds, I showed him the litter box as...

    Declawed Cat Care?

    The kitty I'm going to meet Sunday and hopefully bring home has been declawed. Not what I would do to a cat but the deed has been done already and is healed. With it being healed I'm sure the worst of it is over but is there any special needs afterwards that declawed cats require?? Aside from he...
