Hello, so we have always had a 2 cat household. we have now had 5 cats, over 20+ years. All 2 at a time. So we are used to introducing and have never had any issues. We’ve had both 2 males and male/female. Always fixed. This winter we lost our 15 year old male Himalayan Leo. He was such a good...

I'd also like to add he has not gained or lost any weight.

I doubt it's a hairball, he gets hairball paw gel, and immune support paw gel too

hello, I just want some opinions about my kitty. He's an 11 year old Himalayan, he has a history of allergies and runny eyes. In the past years he would have sporadic coughing due to allergies/ asthma. It's a seasonal occurrence. Sometimes his purr sounds mungy even. ( I give him l lysine for...

Rupert , I would switch him to royal canin urinary so. They offer both wet and dry options. The food is a lifesaver, it breaks down stones, I've seen it myself. My poor guy had the pu surgery, constant bladder infections, and countless surgeries to remove the stones. Once on royal canin , no...

You can also try a feliway diffuser to relieve stress

I'm sure your vet will check for urinary issues, stones, infection etc. If it is not that it is most likely behavioral. Do you have enough boxes for the cats? ( rule is one for every cat plus one) Is there something the cat could be stressed about? New litter, changes in the household...

This will be the third year that we will be out of town for about 2 months. Our cats spend this time at my parents house, whom my cats know and like. ( we have two cats) We usually take them over there several times for a few hours each time before we leave to help them get used to it...

Yes ! That how I was intending to use it, backwards! I didn't think about cutting the hole above the snaps! I'm definitely going to try this!

But if you cut the snaps off to make enough room for her head it would remove all the material in the middle and become one big hole including the leg holes.

The baby onesie idea is great but I cannot for the life of me find onesies without the snaps

I am praying she will be a good girl and leave her stitches alone. I'm also concerned about how active she is for after her surgery. She runs and jumps like crazy.

My 6 month old kitten , 6 lbs Himalayan, is getting spayed on Wednesday. She's a rambunctious girl and I just know she will HATE an ecollar. Anyone have any recommendations of other successful options to prevent her from messing with her stitches? Tube socks aren't big enough for her.

Is he limping at all? How are his back legs? Is he peeing normally? If he's going to the bathroom normally, peeing normal amounts, then I would guess it could be arthritis. If he is not peeing normally you may have a urinary issue going on.

It could be possible that these breathing difficulties may not have been sudden, over time he may have been starting to have issues and now you are just noticing as it is so noticeable? I would get an X-ray asap. Hope he gets better and keep us posted

My 10 year old kitty has been dealing ( very well) with arthritis in both his back knees. He is on cosequin which has worked wonders for him. He runs and plays , I call him my little pony because of the galloping around the house. Lately he's been playing a lot more than usual as we have a new...

just remember youre doing everything you can for him. Hell make it through!

my kitty is a tail wagger too. Ive learned to tell the happy wag, excited wag, and pissed off wag apart. He seems to do it most though when hes happy.

I agree. My old kitty who was prone to urinary problems would literally like dive and start vigorously cleaning/ licking his privates. This is a clear sign of an infection or stones or another urinary problem. You should take kitty to the vet for a check up and monitor his bathroom habits...

I would just keep doing what your doing, try to get him to eat and drink. Keep him quarantined and wait it out until you can get into your regular vet tomorrow. You can also try warming up any wet good you are feeding, he may not be able to smell it if he's congested. Warming it makes it smell...
