What is this weird black thing that was sticking out of the side of my cats mouth/face? I’ve seen cat acne before but this one was odd. Not only was it on the right side of his face at the lip line, but it is also oblong in shape. When I pulled it out, it had a little white “anchor” string, like...

I'm curious how you all would handle this situation: So Cobalt & Rigby sleep together. He's been waking up and suddenly giving a bit of an aggressive meow at Rigby (who's asleep) and then proceeds to bite his neck. The last time this happened, I tried to reassure him that everything was okay...

I'm really excited about HypoCat https://healthnews.com/news/scientists-have-created-a-cat-allergy-vaccine/ It's a vaccine given to cats that make their own immune system attack the proteins that people with cat allergies are triggered by. Since my husband is allergic to our cats and takes...

Got these treats from a food bank, so they were divided out from their original bag. My cats are crazy about these treats and they are one of the only treats one of my cats will eat. Can anyone identify it based off shape and color? They are on the larger size compared to other treats like...

My one cat sometimes growls in his sleep. He’s also woken up hissing. I figure these are nightmares of some kind. He recently had a hissing dream, where he woke up, hissed, and then bit onto my other cat’s neck. He wouldn’t let go at first and actually then proceeded to step on his back and...

Or is that only if they tend to not eat the new food if you just switched it suddenly? My last cat had FLUTD and I'd read that transitioning them slowly held reduce the re-occurrence of a UTI. I don't think it really did anything to help her not get UTIs, tbh. So just wondering if this is...

This stool piece is grainy looking. Undigested food? Been having issues with this kitty snubbing his wet food for a while now (he gets both wet and dry.) He is (ironically) currently on Science Diet Perfect Digestion. This was actually dangling from his butt due to a human hair he ate.. So...

It’s two different colors. (Referring to the larger piece on the bottom.) ——

I don't get it. He straight up will barely touch wet food anymore. And won't eat any of the treats I have for him. This has been going on for months now, even though he used to be the least picky eater between my two cats. He was at the vet recently and we were told he was constipated. We gave...

Found this in my cat’s food bowl this evening. This is the back end of the bowl. He’s been snubbing food lately. We switch them off between Science Diet and Taste of the Wild dry cat food. I always do a gradual mixing of the two food when we get a new bag, and so I thought maybe he was...

So I've been on Metrogel for over a year now for Rosacea. I realized that I wasn't actually washing my hands after applying it, and then I would touch my cats sometime later. Once I realized I could be distributing the antibiotic onto their fur which they then lick, I have now been making sure...

Few weeks ago I posted a thread about how my one cat hisses, yelps, and growls when his brother tries to play with him. I suspect it is related to his weight and we have since gotten a SureFeeder for Cobalt (grey tabby) so Rigby (orange tabby) losses some weight and is more pleasant to be...

I'm not sure what happened, but my grey/black tabby Cobalt doesn't want to play with his orange cream brother Rigby anymore. They are 5 & 6 yrs old respectively and this issue started about a two or three months ago. Whenever Rigby tries to play with him he "growls" (yelps), pushes him away...

My cat has been doing these little almost micro sneezes for the past several days. If it's not a sneeze, then the closest thing I could find on youtube was a hiccup. He has been doing this all day long for several days, with no other behavioral or health changes. He has made this sound...

The Fancy Feast cans have this white lining inside them. When I scrape out the gravy, sometimes it leaves marks in that white lining, which has me concerned that it is getting scrapped into their food. The only thing I can find is on Chewy.com which says that the cans are BPA free. But there...

Over this past year, I have had to rely on pet food banks, so they have changed food several times. I have noticed that my cat's activity level and behavior changes based off their diet. (My cats eat both wet and dry food. I am referring specifically to dry food right now as their wet food has...

She said the top part is hard like a fingernail or claw, sort of. She said it was shifting around a bit but didn’t seem to be bothering her so she pulled it out. The bottom white part is slightly sticky like when you pull a hair out of a follicle. And it’s soft and flexible so thinks it was in...

How might I weigh it down so it stays in place? It's one of those smaller kitten kinds of posts.

This mark appeared a few weeks back. About a week or two later, it scabbed over. I picked it off (it came off really easy). Fur grew thru it even. A tiny bald spot appeared in a bit of the underlying skin. Now it looks like this. What is it?

And they are driving me nuts and I feel bad for them. Whenever they want my attention, I pick up their toys and try to play with them. They show interest for all of two seconds and then are bored. And I try various play options. They have cardboard boxes, flat pleated cardboard, paper, crinkle...
