Hi,
Both my cats have itchy ears. I've been to the vet - they both got Revolution treatment for mites and fleas but this didn't work. The vet took a swab and can't find anything. The ears are clear and they are both very healthy and active, other than shaking their heads and scratching at their...
Not this time. She took her temperature, felt her abdomen, asked all the questions. If she'd had any concerns she would have taken a sample, she is very thorough. We are leaving it for now, with a check back after the weekend to see if the new litter works. In fact my kitty used the clay litter...
Okay... the vet examined her and says it's a behaviour issue. We had a long talk about what we can do about it, so I will follow recommendations and it seems I am on the right track.
My kitty did finally use the clay litter and we are keeping the door to the bedroom closed when we aren't...
She didn't really use it, she just pretended! She squatted but didn't pee. Okay I will call the vet.
My other cat likes the clay better too.... so much for World's Best Cat Litter.... another failure to add to the heap.
God, cats are a lot of work and worry. Good thing they're adorable.
ahhh.... just put the clay litter in and she used it right away. Fingers crossed this was a litter issue... will keep an eye on this though and will take her to a vet if it persists.
Hi, thanks for responding! I just bought some enzyme cleaner too. Dealing with that today!
I would take her to the vet for uti but there are no other symptoms... she isn't urinating frequently, she's super active and playing, no sign of blood in the urine, everything else is normal.
Could a...
I have two young female cats - one is 8 months, the other one 5 months. I introduced them over two months ago and now they get along fine after a rough early start.
Our new problem.... the 5 month old now thinks she can pee on our bed. This started about 4 days ago. She never had problems using...
HI,
My four month old female is hungry all the time too, and no excuses about a rough start - she's had nothing but the best from Day ONE. She can eat 5-6 times a day, 1/4 cup or more each time, sometimes begging for more! I mix wet and dry Royal Canin for kittens. Now that she's crossed the 4...
Thanks so much for the great input. It was very helpful!
Mishu is better after laying low all day yesterday.
I am now feeding Cola a little tiny bit of kitten food when I feed Mishu and this has helped a lot. I give Cola hers first, and make a big show of keeping the kitten from helping...
Thank you, Stephan Z. I didn't know torbies had more attitude but it makes perfect sense. They were both socialized from early on but the older one was here with us by herself for 6 weeks, so she had time to become really established. Also, she had all the attention.
Hi Catwoman,
Thanks so much for the in depth analysis. It makes a lot of sense. I get it about Cola, the older one - I didn't know about torbies being so wild and dominant but it fits. Cola was raised with siblings and a bunch of other cats and people until she was four months and spayed. But...
Hi,
We adopted a rescue tabby kitten (born in captivity, not on the street) who is now 7 months old, then around a month later acquired a three month old black and white kitten as a companion for her. Both are girls, and the little one isn't spayed yet. Both are super affectionate with people...
