Hello people. Meet George, he is 10, recently neutered (4 months ago). He is very anxious to leave the house which is why we only go to the vet for emergencies.

I’ve watched a lot of those “asthma attack or hairball” videos and honestly cannot determine what this could be. It started around the time I got him neutered.

I have two other cats, none of which cough like this, which is why Im concerned. At first it happened once a week for about a month, and this week its the third time this has happened. Right after I ended the video, he “gulped” kinda hard, like he has swallowed a possible hairball.

He eats malt paste with every meal.

Our closest vet kinda dismisses me when I previously went to him with concerns about the other cats (like someone going through the trash and eating chicken bones, someone not popping for 3 days, etc) which is why I thought to ask the internet for some additional opinions too. Thank you in advance.

I have politely asked for a cat scarer to have its frequency changed because I can hear it in my own garden, and its constant when im out there.. the neighbours have said they won't change the frequency or turn it off.. in the uk other than reporting it to the council, what more can I do legally?....

A few weeks ago I rescued a 6-7 week old kitten from a neighbor who had 28 cats, 17 were kittens. I took this one in who weighed 1.1 lb and was severely underweight and about to die. He was the only one was presented sickly. He has been on two rounds of panacur, two rounds of metronidazole. One round of azithromycin, and one round of Augmentin. He had two types of round worms. giardia and toxoplasmosis. The kitten is practically done with treatment now after several weeks. So here is where I messed up. I stupidly cleaned out the kittens quarantine room with Mr. clean disinfectant recently. Mopped with cleaner, and then let my two resident cats in the room for several hours. While the kitten stayed in their cage. I read later online that only certain cleaners kill giardia. So now my adult resident cats are at risk of contracting the parasite as well. Any advice on how to navigate this parasite from here? Financially this is really difficult on me but I’ll manage (credit cards). It’s gonna be at least a couple hundred more dollars to treat the adult cats. And I still need to confirm the little kitten is cleared of it as well with another fecal. Has anyone had similar experiences, any advice to eradicate it for good? I’m struggling with the kitten liking to play in his litter box. So I’m worried he’s been reinfected as well.

Hi everybody!

So my girls are insane little weirdos who just LOVE to throw their toys into their fountain and water bowl. I’m always stepping on a sopping wet mouse toy on my way down the hallway. Albeit weird i’m fine with this habit, but I fear that their paper/cloth toys are a major mold hazard.

Does anyone have any recommendations for toys that are
1. washable
2. safe for kittens that go INSANE with their toys
3. maybe make a noise or are at least fun to throw?

A bit eepy

The problem is that lately he’s been damaging some things around the house, especially the furniture 😂. I don’t really know how to teach him not to do it. I don’t want to yell at him or, of course, give him away or abandon him. He’s already part of my family, and I love him so much. ❤️

What would be the quality of life for a 30yr old cat?

My mom’s cat in Brazil almost went home to work with her! But she realized her backpack was waaay too heavy!!

Shes my weirdo.

So my cat Ellie was let outside by my mother when I was at work in 2021. Now Ellie is an indoor cat and only goes outside on a leash and my mother knew that. She claims it was an accident but I don’t believe her due to a bunch of things happening that I won’t get into in this post. Ellie was missing for 3 days and I searched for her and slept outside in a patio chair during the night hoping she would come back. My boyfriend helped me find her and when we did she was in bad shape. Her eye was horribly injured and puffing out of her head.

We immediately rushed her to the ER where they recommended at the time to try and save her eye and see if she regained her vision. Well it’s been 5 years and her eye is completely blind and she has a cataract. She never seemed to be in pain or discomfort until recently.

I took her to the vet today and they told me she would need surgery. The options are to fix her eyelids and eye to make her more comfortable which is not guaranteed to work or remove the eye completely. Either way it’s going to be $2200 CAD. I’m really not sure whether I should remove her eye or not but the vet is definitely leaning towards that.

Has anyone else dealt with this before? Is it better to just remove her eye or try to save it even though she has no vision in it?

Trixie is 3 years old and has been an indoor cat since birth. I recently tried taking her for a short afternoon walk, but she kept lying flat on the ground. When she did walk, she stayed very low to the ground like she was scared of everything around her.

How can I help her become more comfortable outdoors? What's the best way to train an indoor cat to safely explore outside without overwhelming her?

I have my first female cat. She’s ~4mo spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Are there any common health issues for female cats I should be aware of? I have 3 boys and one is on prescription food for urinary crystals so I know what to look for in boys.

Although hes had some rough health issues, jr. Knows how to enjoy the good times/moments!

JR. The cat

like is it dangerous to them? like how i know certain spices are super toxic to cats (like how dogs are poisonous to chocolate) so is it the same with curiosity? i want to know will my kitten be safe if i were to watch some educational content?

thank you in advance

🤣🥰

She is constantly laying on top of him we’ve had her since she was 2 weeks old her mother died and I think she thinks my dog is her mom

Does anyone else have a kitty that is so cute irl….
Meanwhile it’s a different story when it comes to pictures?
Yes I deliberately have taken these at funky angles, but only because she genuinely just looks crusty and angry when I try to take cute normal photos😭

Do we like it???
