I'm taking Kira to the vet in the morning. Hopefully, a few people on
the east coast will see this before I go.
It may be nothing at all, but am concerned. She's a couple times where
she was either constipated, blocked, or having a stomach ache. The

I used to post here but my computer died, we finally saved up enough to
get a new one
any way, we have 2 brother's, Moe & Rudy, fixed, indoor cats...they are

Don't you just want to take every rescue cat home with you???  :)  I
was just at PetsMart and went to visit the kitties.  I was just walking
past them to see who was awake when a sweet tuxedo girl opened her eyes
and stumbled over herself to get out of her hidey and press up ...

A college student who allegedly deceived pet owners by pretending to be
a veterinarian was collared after authorities used an undercover kitten

Hi,
I am a 3rd year vet student and have a behavioral question I can not answer!
I have 2 cats, Simon, 6 1/2 yrs and Velcro, 4 1/2 yrs, and both are on the
plump side. (Very large LONG cats anyways but 16 lb) So, they are on R/D and

we have an 11 year old male. He's always been in perfect health. a week
ago he vomited up a full stomach's worth of food, cleaned it up, though
possibly it was because I'd switched him to science diet senior
hairball controll (he used to eat this, but a few months ago, he ate

I may be needing to move from Tennessee to Vegas and taking 2 cats
there.
I have a wild cat who won't let me pet him and a tame cat that I can
pet.

My cat (5 yr old Neutered Male) suffered a pretty bad blockage two weeks ago.
It was extremely difficult to cathetarize him. He also had stones in his
bladder (stone analysis isn't back yet but I suspect oxalate since his ph is
6 and there were no crystals in his urine).  My kitty ...

I've been reading through some recent posts/messages and I now I'm
puzzled by something.
If you take your cat to the vet and it's diagnosed with some sort of
potentially fatal illness, shouldn't the vet tell you that the cat

We just got our cat Miss Chief spayed a couple of weeks ago and last
Friday she had her stitches out.
Since then she has been very happy and doesn't seem unwell but there
has been a little bit of seepage from the incision site.  Specifically

What is the correct water temperature for a cat?  I've tried looking
for this info for some time now, but have not come up with anything.  I
know dogs actually prefer water that is not too cold.  Is this the same
for cats?

Does anyone have any experience with cats having horrible nightmares/night
terrors? My 6-yr-old, formerly feral, cat has had 2 episodes that I think (I
hope...) were nightmares in the past few months. Both times, he's woken me
up early in the AM screaming and yowling (it sounds ...

Yesterday night I noticed that my cat had a reddish, swollen area on the
front of his lower jaw.  If he had a lip, it would be on the center of his
lower lip.  It looks almost as if his tounge is hanging out slightly (but it
isn't).  It doesn't seem to be painful, because I gently ...

I have two cats - Smokey is 5 years old and I have him 4 years.  Harry is 3
years old and I have him 2 months.  They fight!  Neither cat will give in.
There has been no injuries as such yet except yesterday I noticed some
scratches on Smokey's forehead but nothing serious.  Over ...

Can anyone advise me?
I have a 2 yr, 9mo. old male long hair cat. He has always been
perfectly healthy. Yesterday, he kept going to the littlebox, crouching
as if he needed to urinate, but nothing came out, or only a drop would
