Hi, all. it's been a while since I've been on The Cat Site. When I first joined this site back in 2014, I had a pregnant stray and you all gave me wonderful advice. I still have the cat, but all her kittens were adopted back then. Now, for the first time in YEARS, I've got another pregnant...

My nine-month old rescue, Lord Chesterfield of Chocolate, was hit by a car two months ago and wound up on my sidewalk, which is how I ended up with him. At the time, he had a broken jaw and head trauma and was in such bad shape the vets didn't think he would make it. I was told of the...

I have a good deal of experience with cats, so I fostered two sweet five-week-old Siamese-mix kittens for a rescue recently, and as my donation, I took care of the vet visits. Two days after I got them, the kennel was full of diarrhea tracked everywhere and running down the leg of the smaller...

It's been a while since I've posted on here. A new, young male cat - TNR'd by a neighbor - has arrived at my house. I have three indoor cats - one a female - and two female "carport kitties" who have a nice shelter there. I also have one large male tuxedo cat who dines at least four times a...

This beautiful stray cat in the photos is wreaking havoc by his neediness and possessiveness. He showed up last week. Apollo is quite large and very friendly. Sounds great; however, he is running off my carport kitties and the other cat I have fed, vetted, and cared for. The latter has eye...

Hi, everyone. I haven't posted in a long time but I have a stray I've been feeding and providing shelter for nearly two years. "Gatsby" finally allowed himself to be trapped about a month ago. At the vet, he was neutered, given a rabies shot, and his mattering, mucus-draining eyes treated with...

My latest rescue Jed is lame. I caught him a month-and-a-half ago, but it took me nearly two years to catch him, although he became friendly with me, but would not go in a crate. Nearly a year prior to catching him, he injured his foot. He was hobbling and could not put weight on it. This was...

I haven't posted in a while but my former feral/semi-feral Orville who has been living in the house for 1.5 years now has suddenly reverted to a fearful/hiding state. Everything had been going so well up until yesterday. He would flop in front of me, let me rub his belly, purr and was very...

My 4 year-old neutered male cat Chaucer has a redirected aggression problem. It started with my spayed female cat I've had for three years, He would groom her and then attack her.  He would attack her if she was nearby when another cat was in the area too. She now hisses and growls, and flattens...

My cat, Chaucer, is a 4 year-old neutered male. He has a history of colitis and cystitis, primairly due to stress, according to the vet.  However, I believe there is something very wrong with him that may have nothing to do with these two things.  His eyes started looking strange about a week...

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for my question. I wasn't even sure how to title this.  Admins, if necessary please move it to the appropriate forum. Readers, please bare with me. Brief background of me -I have three rescues who are all indoors, and have a couple of threads in other...

With the weather turning colder, I'm considering bringing my FIV+ now-tame, affectionate former feral into the house with my two indoor cats. I've been feeding him for a year now but it took 10 months before he trusted me enough to get him to the vet for tests, neutering and shots. The vet while...

I have a very aggressive Tom who has shown up occasionally at my house for a year or two. He is large, long and I don't want him here. He upsets my indoor two cats with his growling and aggressive behavior to the point they have screamed at him and then turned on each other. I love cats and feed...

My three-and-a-half year-old neutered male indoor cat has had a problem with blood in his stool for a couple of years. I find blood on the floor outside his litter box sometimes. I mentioned this to the vet a couple of times and she took a sample from him - it was yellow diarrhea with streaks of...

Henryetta is a rescued neighborhood semi-feral I've had for a year-and-a-half.  These pictures are all her. You look at her face - Tabby.  Her back- Tortoiseshell. Her stomach and  at least two of her leg back (unseen) -Calico. Should I call her a Torbie-co?

My friendly male cat Chaucer is a bully to my sweet female cat Henryetta. 1. Background: Chaucer who has been with me since he was four months old was in the house with me for two years by the time I was able to bring Henryetta in to live with us about six months ago. In fact, today is her...

My sweet Henryetta is a feral/semi-feral I fed for several months and then was able to rescue when she was pregnant and help her care for kittens. She's now spayed and has been an indoor-only cat since last April and has adapted wonderfully.  She's loving, sweet-natured and gets along with my...

Some of you have followed my story in the ferals and pregnant cat forums and those who have offered advice have been lifesavers for me so now I'm hoping someone can offer me some guidance on this matter. Please forgive the recap if you already were following the other threads of mine.. 1...

I have a couple of other threads in this forum and one in ferals about my rescued stray and her kittens but felt this needed to be a new one so it wouldn't be overlooked because I'm not sure what to do. Today I noticed that Henryetta was starting to become less tolerant of her kittens'...

There is probably a topic on this somewhere that I didn't see, but I need some advice about this.  My semi-feral I have cared for since December and took in during early April had five kittens 12 days ago. They are currently in a box with three-inch sides under a chair and are in the storage...
