I just got home from shopping for a couple hours. I let my dogs out, turned around, and there's my cat with a swollen face! I had seen him a few hours ago and he was fine. It's so weird. It's like his cheeks are swollen. Cheekbones, do cats have those? Dunno. It just makes him look funny. I tried touching his face, it doesn't bother him in the slightest. And it doesn't feel weird, either. He acts perfectly normal. He's got a very unique personality and that hasn't changed. No other symptoms to account for! It bothers me, but I'm not too upset because he seems fine, except he looks like that.

I am thinking an allergic reaction? I don't know. has this happened to anyone before because I'm at a loss at what is the deal. I'd take him to the vet, but I live in a smaller area and nothing is open for miles. not to mention, it's friday.

My uncles cat gave birth because he didn't bother to get her fixed. The babies were scared and alone in the woods for weeks. So we captured 2 of them and took them home. They've been with us for 10 months and we feed and take care of them REALLY good. We love them so much. They seem to get more friendly with us, but they still run when ever we get near them. They just don't hiss at us anymore. Can anyone tell me why there scared, is something wrong?!?!

We have a male cat that has been having severe itching and the 3 vets have only said its allergies to fleas but frontline, capstar or bathes do not help and he's got a cone on that doesn't keep him from himself. We've got him prednisone shots don't help and skin scapings can't find anyhting & some powder stuff and allergy pills that seemed to help for a few days but stopped. We have 2 other cats that do not have same problem so its not contagious what could be going on? He is also on a bath medicine keto sumthing and its an antiseptic like wash the vet gave us and it did seem to help a lil but now its not so much he is very crazy like when u give him a bath like the water burns him or hurts him in sumway the shampoo he's fine with so its not that its just when he's put into water & yes I understand most cats don't like bathes but its different with him he's a major spoiled baby and he acts like your killin him when we bath him.. I can't stand seeing him suffer ...Please Help Me

I just adopted a stray cat this week who was left on my doorstep. However, I did take it to the vet and I found out it is a female. I really need a good name for her. I did start to call her Sugar but the more I call her the more I dont know if I like that name for her. She is all black except around her neck she has brown fur. sort of like a lion thing. She has a very sweet personality. She is so loveable and very friendly. Which made me choose the name Sugar for her. but I am really starting to like the name Gracie for her. Which name would be best for my cat? which name do you think goes best with her personality? if neither of those names go with her, then give me a few names you think would be cute for her?

I have had her since she was 5 weeks old and now she is six months old. She has just been on a two week holiday to my parents while I was away and I'm anxious she won't recognise me when she gets back. Do cats have a memory of the people who look after them? ie. me her mum!

Its called "pretentious" but it should be called ridiculous! WHY do "upscale" restaurants charge their customers SO much when all they serve are little itty bitty portions of food that are hardly even visible on your plate?!

My cat has been having fleas since she came and nothing seems to work-hopefully I'm just not doing it right. I have tried Advantage and it did not work(I have a feeling that I did not put it on right) may people have told me that it works great - not for me. Any suggestions + my cat is long-haired.

Ok, my cat had a bad eye infection about a month ago (started with one eye being VERY swollen, pussy, watery, then spread to both eyes. I took him to the vet immediately and they put him on some drops. He got the drops for a few weeks and his eyes SLOWLY got better. The drops are gone and his eyes still get green crusty things in the corners. When I lift his eye the whites of his eye are just a little red still, he started sneezing maybe once every other day, and he breathes really heavy like he is congested, like he's snorting through his nose (it's weird). Should i take him back to the vet, he doesn't seem sick, I just want to know if this breathing thing is something to be alarmed about??

The other day my cat got into a fight with another cat and his cheek got sliced open, well I cleaned it up and put some ointment on it. Well it looked like it started healing. Anyways, i was petting him the other day and was checking to see if his cut was healing when i noticed there was a hole under his cut and just under his cheek. it looked like a little of his cheek was sticking out, so I put some ointment on that too. Well the past couple days it's been getting bigger and pusier and looking really bad. He has a hole in his face and it's scaring me to death! Someone mentioned a worble then someone else mentioned cancer! I am freaking out now thinking it's cancer. I didn't think cancer would start that fast and I would think if he had cancer that he would be acting sickly, but he isn't. I'm not exactly positive how old he is since he just showed up at my fiances grandpas and he gave him to me.
