I have some kittens I been taking care of for my mom for about 2 weeks. There is 6 of them and I have 2 cats of my own inside. Well they got sick and have been sick for a while, they have clogged noses, they have been sneezing alot. Well I noticed yesterday 2 of the kittens were having nose bleeds. It's pure red blood and sometimes quite a bit comes out. I don't understand why it's doing this. Could it just be from the sickness? It has me really worried. I wiped the one kittens nose off last night and he blowed his nose into the toilet paper and then blood came out! He also acts like it's really sore. What could this be? I also been giving them some penicillin antibiotics that my vet said to give them. I plan on calling the vet tomorrow since they weren't open today. Thank you!

My cat in the picture has a Mast Cell Tumor. It's small, above his right eye. Does anyone have some info/advice on what to do? The vet want's to remove it, and I am in favor of thatt, but it is really expensive.

I got a kitten for Christmas and he's about 5 or 6 months old. I took him to the vet today and got him fixed. When he comes home, is there anything in specific I can do to make things more comfortable for him?

My cat sometimes wakes up in the middle of the night and whales or cries so loud it wakes me and my husband out of a sound sleep. She has food & water, sometimes I will open the front door to let her out and she doesn't go. Does she just want attention, is she insane? What can I do about this?

He's 10 years old, and an outside cat.. He's out all day, and comes inside to sleep.... (usually on a pillow on my bed) he's spoiled and he knows it.. But in the past 2 days, he's peed on my bed and my daughters bed... It's odd, what would make him act this way? We haven't gotten any new pets or anything like that. Do you think it might be his age? Help!! I also got some stuff to get the odor out of our beds called Nature's Miracle. any other suggestions on the odor eliminator...?? Thankss!!!

Ok.
Every night some uninvited guests invade my kitchen and start having a feast at my expense without my permission. They are coming from mice community.
Now the worse part of it is that I've got a big cat which believes every mouse has a right to live. Is it worth keeping it?

Last week my one roomate and I rescued two adorable kittens from a shelter. We are working with the kittens everyday and they are slowly coming around. However they are still very skittish and run everytime we walk to close or they hear a loud noise. They are also hard to catch. However, when we do catch them, they are as sweet as can be. What can we do to help these kittens become more sociable?

vet wants to remove them at the cost of $1200 and there would be a very high risk that my cat could die and then there is medication that she can be put on for the rest of her life that costs $30 per month. the vet really wants to do the operation instead and we can't afford it but we can afford the pills.

I have a one-and-a half year old cat. She has the run of a fairly large 2 story house. I work at home and do not live alone, so she does not go many periods of being alone.

To train her some I have used a water pistol, and made noise with a rolled up newspaper.This is to keep her off kitchen counters and from food. I have never struck her. Today is particularly sad. Last night as she sometimes does, she came up by my pillow and slept right with me. Sometimes she sleeps on my legs, rear area. This morning I was petting her and loving her, not overdoing it. Then just started to nip me, finally breaking skin, and biting fairly hard. I have several bloody places, athough there are not deep. When she was doing this I hollered, "No!", "No,!" (the usual reasonable command for discipline).

She will nip my father, who comes over fairly often; he has to be careful. Suggestions about what to do concerning my cat, Cleo, would be greatly appreciated.

I haven't had a cat in years when I lived at home we had several, but they were indoor/outdoor pets. I want an inside cat that wouldnt beable to go out. I have a two year old and no other pets. I have heard so much about cats being more independent and easier to take care of then a dog. I am a stay at home mom so I am here most of the time(if it matter with a cat) and have a smaller two bedroom house. I want a quiet animal who doesnt make too much of a mess, and that would cuddle at night, and that I could just leave when I go out to the store or to do errands. Does it sound like a cat would fit? Is it difficult to keep a cat inside?

I have a 3 year old male cat. and 2 dogs. They all get along fine. I just got a new cat she is not a year yet until march. They play and get along fine but my older cat tries to bite the younger one. The older cat does not have any front claws where the younger cat does. Does this have anything to do with the bitting. They have both been fixed. Other then the older cat trying to bite the younger one they get along fine. I hope someone has an answer for me as to what might be making the older cat bite the younger one and to make him stop. I dont think he is doing it hard but I just dont want the younger one not to get hurt.

My elderly (12) female cat has lately been refusing to use the litterbox. She was seen by a vet about 3 months ago and he could not identify any urinary-tract problem. But she's still peeing in inappropriate places (such as on top of the dining-room table!) and it's really becoming a problem.

The litterboxes (we have 2 cats) are kept very clean, and we have not changed brands of cat litter. And nothing has occurred in our household recently, such as the introduction of a new cat, emotional upheaval, or other big change in routine, to explain this change in behavior.

I am not a person that would ever, EVER get rid of my cat over something like this, but I need some ideas about what might be going on and what I might do about it. It's becoming a problem to live with. If you've been in a similar situation and found something that worked, I would really appreciate hearing from you! Thanks so much.

I got a kitten for my nieces & nephew. I kept her 2 weeks before Xmas. I found out quickly that she was sick. She was congested, sneezing, and having a hard time breathing. Took her to the vet, and he said she had upper respiratory infection. She went home with my sister and kids....and has taken all of the antibiotics. She seems to have gotten a little better. But when she sneezes.......bloody snots come out. Why does she do this?? Any ideas on what can be wrong??
