Although this may seem like a minor concern, I wanted to throw this out to you for your advice.
I brought home my new kitten, Milo, in November, and up to this point he and his "big brother" Wilbur have been getting along. Roughhousing, snuggling, licking each other, etc. All is well.
Honestly, I don't know if cats can get holiday mood swings (!), but Wilbur seems to be sick and tired of Milo. I can certainly understand this because Milo worships Wilb and follows him around constantly. Other times, Wilbur would just jump to a place where Milo can't reach to get away from him, but now, he is HISSING and GROWLING every time Milo comes near him. Poor Milo doesn't know what to think.
On top of that, I don't think Wilbur has pooped over the past day or so. Maybe that's causing his moodiness? I gave him some hairball goo to lick up, so maybe that'll help him go. Wilb also has colitis and I have been seeing some blood recently. THEN....(because by now I'm getting totally paranoid)...it seems like Wilb's eyes are glassy and blah.
HOWEVER, he was eating both wet and dry food today, and has been drinking well. I also had him playing with Da Bird and he was flipping around like normal. I just want to see him poop and stop hissing at his brother!!
Again, sorry if all of this sounds like a non-event, but I don't know whether Wilb's just tuckered out from the holidays and wants "alone time" or if there is something more going on (especially since I *think* he hasn't pooped in a day or two).
Any advice? In case you haven't figured it out yet, I'm a worrier.
