Cats - September 2006

She has never been pregnant, has never been outside. The area around her teats is swollen and hard, and she is acting very lovey right now (like she does right before she comes in heat). What can I do for her? Will this go away on its own?

As a result of his AIDS his mouth gets so sore that he is now terrified of eating. Even the smoothest liquid food he cannot have more than a few mouth fulls until retreating in pain. Every month he gets an injection that helps the pain and inflamation to go down. But now this does not seem to work any more.

I am currently feeding my two kittens IAM's for kittens (as directed by the vet). My girlfriend and I work 9-5 so we have been leaving a bowl out (topped up every morning) all the time. Is this a bad idea? Should we let them eat in the morning, take the food away from them when we leave for work, and then reintroduce the food when we get home for dinner? I'm worried that they may over eat and get fat if food is available to them all the time.

Ok, so I know cats are nocturnal. I'm aware that they're up all night playing. The problem is that I adopted a spayed femal cat this week, and she is up all night meowing. I'm a grad student so home all day and she gets plenty of attention. However, around 3am she starts meowing, and it doesn't stop! I can't take much more of this, I'm going nuts. I wanted an indoor only cat and the agency I got her through said she was indoor, quiet and cuddly. Well she isn't any of those things. Is this meowing all night long normal? If it doesn't stop, is it wrong of me to take her back to the humane society?

Recently he has been waking up and coughing in the morning. Just like a smokers cough where it sounds like he has a cold in his chest or some type of liquid buildup in his lungs. Is it a hairball hes trying to cough up? Is this a sympton of a bigger issue??

I have a domestic shorthair (getting old but not too old) who has stopped washing herself and has really matted hair. She has a big appetite but is really thin. She has a big thirst too. I thought maybe it could be diabetes but why does she have matted fur?

He must have got through 5 or six in the last year. He comes back after a 'night out' and it's gone missing. Not sure if it's during the odd fight he gets into, or from squeezing through small gaps. Obviously, for safety, cat collars need to have some 'give' or a catch that releases if put under strain - but this seems to mean we need to buy a new collar every couple of months...

I have a stray male cat that crosses my backyard once in a while, and I hope to befriend it. I know that if you feed a stray dog a hot dog that the hot dog's smell stays on your hands and its smell causes the dog to follow you, so my question is how can I do that for a cat?

I didn't realize until after doing some research tonight, but I think my cat might be pregnant. Due to the swelling and pinking of nipples. The extra affection she is showing. And eating lots more. However I do not know how far along and now she is having vaginal bleeding. I am concerned she is having a miscarriage.
The question is do I need to take her to a vet? or let nature just run it's course? Also what do I do about the bleeding in the meantime?

The cat matches the description I got pretty accuretly (I think, for it being pitch-black), and is defenetly someone's housecat. I locked up our cats (they were outside) and set out some food.

I have pet the cat, so I washed my hands quite throughly with soap. If this is my neighbor's cat (I'll find out in the morning), how are some legal & tempting ways I can keep it here?

He or she - tottaly forget rest of info - is currenlty outside. She's been missing nearly two weeks.

I have a six year old cat who is pulling out his fur. I recently discovered a bald patch on th base of his tail. I believe he is currently on a flea med. We had an older cat who died the beginning of May, we started noticing clumps of hair around the house in the middle of August. Its the beginning of September and I just witnessed him clean himself and then pull large clumps of hair out and then found the bald patch. Not sure what to think here.

There's too many unwanted cats and dogs everywhere. I want to ease them from misery of being homeless. I want to start with my own neighborhood, neuter the stray cats then let them free after they recover from the surgery. Afterall most are doing ok on their own. I dont have money to do an animal sanctuary. So maybe this is the next best thing? Better than putting them to sleep or caged up in overcrowded animal sanctuary right?
