| Adopted stray has fishhead breath | 21 Sep 2003 07:32 GMT | 3 |
I've had him wormed, de-fleaed, washed. He's gotten his leuk test (negative) and his leuk and rabies shot. He's a hell of a sport about all this, too. He seems grateful to be taken in by someone and to be safe. But the poor fellah has fishhead breath. He does have a bottom ...

| mammary cancer | 21 Sep 2003 07:31 GMT | 7 |
I've done my homework and adenocarcinoma seems hard to beat. Do any cats survive it? Any at ALL? Everything I've read says 1 to 3 years, but there must be some who are actually cured, right? My kitty is having a radical lateral mastectomy tomorrow & beginning chemo

My cat Morag, who is a Burmese, was diagnosed with severe HCM by my regular vet about a month ago, after having undergone an ultrasound. Yesterday she saw a cardiologist at the veterinary hospital here, and after an ultrasound was performed using a machine with a higher resolution ...

| Cat ID Tag... | 20 Sep 2003 23:28 GMT | 4 |
All cats should wear proper identification. A pet id tag is the best way to ensure that if your cat is lost, it is returned to you. Many municipalities are required to hold an animal with a cat tag longer than an animal they find without identification. Easy to order pet tags at

| Energetic cat / reserved cat | 20 Sep 2003 21:29 GMT | 6 |
Could I please have some advice and suggestions? My two cats were best of buddies for about 10 years, when the male died. I replaced him right away with a 2-year-old male from the shelter. Tried to pick a "laid back" one, but it looks like I guessed wrong. Sully, it turns

| Does sex of companion cats matter? | 20 Sep 2003 18:28 GMT | 7 |
We have a 3 year old female (fixed) cat and are planning to bring home a new kitten companion. Does it matter, in terms of how they will get along, if they are the same sex or not? Cory

I would greatly appreciate input from this group on an ongoing problem with my 10-year-old cat. She has always had a vomiting problem (yes, she is given Petromalt for hairballs), but it seems to have worsened in the last few months. She is also experiencing diarrhea. I have

| cat eye colours | 20 Sep 2003 14:45 GMT | 5 |
My cat Webster has brown eyes but the other 6 cats that I've had had green eyes. I know that Siamese cats and some other cat breeds have blue eyes but I've never seen a cat with brown eyes before. Have you? Zoe

| How can you tell it's playing and not aggression? | 20 Sep 2003 02:25 GMT | 5 |
Jack and Rizzo have, to my mind, have always gotten along well. Their play is rough-and-tumble, but has never been marked by hissing, growling, or injury. Last night, Jack comes tearing into the living room with the fur on his

| Cat peed on concrete floor - help! | 20 Sep 2003 00:51 GMT | 5 |
One of my indoor kitties peed in the laundry room near the litter pan. This was discovered after the copious amount of urine had sat for several hours and seeped into the concrete floor. This is unusual behavior, and my guess is he is reacting to the sounds of the dogs who recently ...

I seem to have a small kitten on my hands (9 weeks or so). I remember there being some issues with using a scoopable litter with kittens. What is the current thought on this, and is there a recommended litter. The kitten has been tested and has spent time with

| Kitten concerns | 19 Sep 2003 22:33 GMT | 9 |
My neighbours mistreated then abandoned a 8 week-old(?) kitten. I like the little guy, but he's kind of a handful and gets into feisty play (I try to play with him but I also have to work at home) such as scratching, biting, jumping onto my neck, biting and scratching my ears,

| Lethargy and Reduced Appetite | 19 Sep 2003 22:08 GMT | 5 |
For the last week or so, my 3 year-old female cat has been spending the entire day and night lying on one surface, leaving the spot only to eliminate and eat. She'll spend three or four days at each location before moving on to another place. I sealed off access to

I am the owner of three cats - one is a domestic longhair 8 yrs old, and the other two are domestic shorthairs 2 yrs old (siblings). I also own two dogs, ages 8yrs, and 8 months. All are female, and all are spayed. Each cat - of course - has a unique personality. One of the 2 year ...
