    How much to feed 15 week old Bengal?

    I have a 15 week old bengal and I'm struggling to figure out how much to feed her. I'm feeding her the small fancy feast kitten food 3 times a day but im fairly sure that is not enough for her. She seems to want more food an hour later and will go to any length she can to steal food from us...

    Pics of my girl mango, No idea what she is?

    I rescued Mango as a 5 week old kitten from our local pound a year ago. At first, I thought she'd be a full long hair cat but she has short hair on her back but its very silky and fine, she has long hair around her ruff and britches, belly and a long tail. She's just turned 12 months old and she...

    My cat needsi to wear an e-collar for 4-6 weeks while he is healing from a urinary procedure.

    furosemide in a FLUTD cat?

    I had to take my cat Theodore back to the vet. He's not blocked but does get plugs at the end of his urethra. We are trying to get the crystals flushed out of his system but nothing is really helping. My vet and I had a discussion and decided to try him on a diuretic over the weekend to try...

    Whiskers changing colour?

    My ginger/cream tabby girl is around 7 months old and lately I've noticed that her cream whiskers are changing to black, one by one! Is there a reason for this and will they all change colour or would she just get the odd black one here and there?

    Cat pages - sort of?

    Is there anywhere here on TheCatSite where we can have our own blog if you will? I love to talk about my cats and share lots of photos. I started a cat page but it wasn't what I thought it would be where we could have like a thread for each blog I guess. I'm hoping I've explained what I'm...

    What does she look like?

    I know she's probably just an average domestic cat. I rescued her from a shelter and her mum was there with her. The mum was a tortie with long silky hair and big round orange eyes but she definitely wasn't a persian type cat. She also had a single coat that was so silky her fur parted down her...

    What to feed the cats... canned foods

    I'll start by saying im in Australia so many brands that people suggest may not be available here. Before my cat Theodore got sick with a urinary obstruction, we used to feed our cats an Aldi brand of food, which they liked. They then got sick of that so we switched to whiskas. After a new...

    Out of curiousity, wierd cat breathing? Video included.

    I'm not overly worried about this but I am curious as to why my ginger girl breathes like this. It's like a huffing or outward snorting motion. She is always purring when she does this. I've had a few cats and never have I seen a cat breathing like this one. Any ideas?
