We came home, took a brandy to toast him, lit a candle under his favourite

Once again there is another cat that may be lost or abandoned in the
apartment complex where I live. The complex management said a resident
reported about the cat recently and one of the complex office people said
this cat has been going back to her old apartment. The cat is ...

I have three cats, one is a female who is 9 and the others are two brothers
who are 2. They all have a strange habit, which is to try to cover their
food after they eat in the same way they cover in their litter boxes. I have
asked the vet about this, and he really couldn't give me ...

I just picked my kitty up from the vet today after having her spayed. The
vet said she can't be around my other cats (I have 3 others), and she can't
jump up on anything for 10 days. I don't want to keep her in the crate for
10 days, but I don't want her to hurt herself jumping on ...

Hi, our 4/5 yr old cat recently started having loose stools. We switched his
food a few months back, to Iams , since he's a bit heavy. He's been eating
the food fine with no problems, but since maybe 2 weeks ago his stools are
loose, and bigger than normal.

I have a foster litter and their mother, and the kittens are just turning 8
weeks.  The mother is due to be spayed in two weeks.  Their current setup at
my house is two rooms that are connected by a doorway, which has a baby gate
across is so Autumn (that's the mother), can hop back ...

I've been keeping track of what foods Nipsy and Espy like and don't
like. They really hate anything with turkey in it. So much for
Thanksgiving. They're not big on beef. They love lamb apparently.
Chicken and Herring is a hit. Triumph Salmon gets two paws up.

I read with much interest the thread on Nutro food(s). I have been feeding my
now 7 YO indoor only cat Nutro Max Lite for several years. No problems yet;
Kenzie has never been sick in any way in the 4 years or so since I got her, but
I'd rather not find out the hard way. She was ...

Approximately 2 months ago, my cat, Luther, a sweet gray tabby, went
to the vet and was diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome. He was
placed on prednisone and Imuran for this. I, foolishly, trusted the
vet and did not research the drugs being administered.  The IBD seemed

I have a problem with one of our cats that has just cropped up within
the last week. We have a ~12 year-old cat and at the beginning of
September we moved to a new house about 40 miles away from the house
that he has lived in for 99% of his life.

I'm not sure but went with frontline plus (vet's recommendation). But I'd liket
o know which is better?

Wondering if anyone has any knowledge of what current drugs are out
there  (prescription or over the counter) that are good for people who
are allergic to cats.
Seems to me I recall seeing a commercial recently, but I can't remember

So Wendell was about to go to sleep, and suddenly he coughed--then passed out.
He went limp, and his eyes were open. I thought he was dead, but apparently he
just fainted. I took him to the vet, who took x-rays and told me he almost
definitely has asthma. (I'm a little annoyed, ...

Haven't posted here in ages, so I thought I'd share with you some of
the latest photos of my wonderful brood.

year old blue smoke Persian (he's the doll faced kind - a term I

My vet has me medicating my cat for high blood pressure ($$$$$!).
Seriously, has anyone adapted a regular BP cuff for a cat? The
vet says if I can alter the cuff, I can measure under the base of
her tail. I've played with the cuff but don't see a practical way
