My cat who is now 16 yrs old, has a black canine and it is loose, obviously
severley infected and dead.  I noticed the front of her face is swollen and
her eye above the tooth is weeping quite a bit.  I am fearful of two
things - the vet saying she would have to be put down, and the ...

     I think one of my cats have fleas.  I guess if one has fleas the other
must have too.  I found some tiny black speck in the fur.  It is easy to see
because my cats are white.  Now I wonder what shall I do.  I will call the
vet tomorrow and I guess she will treat my cats ...

I have a 3 month old kitten that is strictly a house cat. She has been
checked by the vet and found no fleas. Even gave her Advantage. Now, I'm
finding fleas in the house and tonight, I've seen 3 on the cat. Where are
they coming from? We've never had fleas before, we've been here 2 ...

I've found with my hairballs that if I spend a lot of money on a toy,
it's not worth playing with.  But if it's FREE and simple?..they love
it.  The best toys in this house are rubber bands (that I take away
when I'm out of sight), Qtips (that I take away when I'm out of

Over the years Isis, my 6 year old long-haired Tabby, has been mildly
interested in flashy toys but she soon tires of the experience. There's one
game, though, that has never lost its appeal. I call it "Slime".
She hops up on my desk and sticks her face in the rubber band box. She ...

My 14 year old male cat recently lost weight and began drinking extreme amounts
of water.  The vet's blood test showed high glucose, and the diagnosis was
diabetes.  Ten days ago I started him on insulin shots, but he hasn't ...

We have a 12 year old female, two 4 month old male kittens, and a 6 year
old male who is obese.
We know that his diet needs to be controlled, but haven't figured out how
to control his eating while insuring that our female and our kittens get

We've got two white kitties with blue eyes and
seal point markings. If they mate, and please let
us know and I know you will, if it's okay for
brother and sister to mate, will the offspring be

I recently adopted a 2 year old tabby mix from the local Animal Rescue
League.  He is a great little guy and is fitting in well with my four
year old tabby male.
I noticed the other night as he was getting ready to bed down that he

We have a Russian Blue, 6 months old. First question is, how do we tell
wether the Ginger Tom from across the road has got to her? and secondly, we
have noticed that she has feelers on the rear of her front legs, just above
the first joint, is this normal?

We came back from a 13 day honeymoon to find out one of our cats (both
female, neutered) had repeated peed and pooped on a section of carpet in
a corner of the room over a course of a week or more. I need help with
two things:

I was showing my 2 year male some affection by patting him when all of a
sudden when I went to lift him up he grabbed hold of my face with both claws
and bit my forehead and  at the same time??
Now this is the first time he has done anything like this so I was quite

Okay i have medication from my vet for the earmites in my cat. However

long does it take to get rid of them.
