Cats - June 2007

I have a littermaid, because they don't cover their poop, not because I'm lazy. The little one has some explosive diarrea going on and its getting caught in the rakes, the litter I used last is, well, crap. How well do the chrystl kinds work?

The only collars I can find are breakaway and shes lost it twice. Once at the vets and she ran out of the office. Luckily the door was shut and the second time was just now. Are there collars that aren't breakaway? I understand the point of breakaway collar. But this time her rabies tags are gone and the shots cost alot and I can't get her fixed till I can prove she had her shots.

What are proper things to feed her right now?
I know cow's milk is bad for her.
She looks to be about 4 to 5 weeks old.
She does eat from a syringe, but won't eat from a dish.

Any home remedy suggestions?

I named her MiMi but no one seems to like that name for her. I have only had her for a week or so, and I dont think Mimi fits her very well... something simple but cute, but maybe not to girly, oh and easy to say... i cant find any my whole family agrees on... here are some pictures of her http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y88/hpgimmy/Picture004.jpg

So , the kitten has soil inside his mouth and his tongue from looking for nutrition. (He has been at least 20 hours away from his mother) and we found him because of his cries from within the garden, he was apparently dragged by his mom in a gap on a wood bank
My QUESTION is..!(lol im really sorry. we're kinda new at this)
Is it okay for the kitten to be drinking milk if he might have soil on his mouth? he's only 3 or 4 days old.. I'm worried if his tummy can take it.. Obviously I don't think it's normal, but my parents don't seem to be that worried.. (Dad says if it doesn't happen again it's probably allright and my mom says since he started drinking milk again and things seem to go back to normal it'll probably work out)
Please don't send any hate responces or assume that we're irresponsible!Because that isn't true and it wouldn't be helpful for our situation (by the way its after 8, vets are closed)
I care for the kitten's safety and any helpful tips is welcome
Thank you all !

Found a kitten, eyes were open, ears stood up, and she is walking, wabbly. She is only drinking approx. 1 tbls. a feeding. She isn't using the bathroom consistently. Like today, no bm. and only twice urinating. She seems to have a little congestion, and sneezing? Guesses on how old she might be? Thanks for taking the time.

HI, everyone. My cats have roundworms in their body and i took them to the local veterinarian for giving them two shots and some medicines. after they applied the medicine, it seemed get better. but after a period of time, i discovered that there were some little things on the floor. It seems like sasames but i think those are the eggs of the roundworms.( not sure). i think those are comes out from their anus. what can i do now?

We adopted a kitten from someone who had an accidental litter. It has been about a month and we now find that a friend of ours that adopted a kitten from the same litter is thinking about getting rid of hers. If we take in the other kitten from the same litter, will there be problems with our current kitten? They are the exact same age.

I heard before that you need some sort of license in order to own a cat, or dog. Is it true? If it is, what do you have to do?

And is it ILLEGAL to let a cat wonder around the neighbourhood by itself without a leash...

Do cats even need a leash?????

I just got a new kitten last night. She dranked water & ate a little before going to sleep. In the middle of the night, I woke up to hear her "gagging" but nothing came out. So far today almost 20 hours since I've had her, she won't eat (the same food she have been eating prior) or drink water. She would smell it but not eat it. Also, she keep having the "gagging" about every hour or so. I know when she will start gagging as she will meow a couple of times & then the gagging will start right after. It will go on for about 10 seconds & then she will stop, but nothing comes out. Then she goes back to being normal. Does anyone know whats wrong? The pet store which I got it from (I got her for free so maybe something were wrong w/ the kittens?) said the kittens had just gotten their first shots, flea bath and deworming. Will that affect her behavior?

Also, I have an older cat, she gags but she usually throws up food or hairballs but I am not familiar with kittens! Any help will be great

Her vet says its "just regurgitation" like its no big deal. Its a mess that I have cleaned in different places of the house nearly every day for the year we have had her.

She eats fine, and after a while she starts swallowing- as if it is coming up and she is trying to swallow it back down. Eventually her stomach starts pumping and she is barfing most of it up. It is just wet, digested dry food.

We have tried changing foods, softening the food with water, lifting the bowl up, giving her smaller portions, and kept her out of human food.

I thought it would eventually stop, but it hasn't, and she is still so thin. I want her to gain weight and be healthy, and I want to stop having to clean it up.

My mother suggested that it could be a gluten allergy (a protien in flour)- any ideas on how I could check for that (other than buying gluten-free food and trying it)?

She is the only pet in the house, and the only cat I've ever had that does this.

I have a 2-year-old British Shorthair cat who sheds a LOT. he started shedding since last summer and now its getting worse and worse. I feed him Royal Canin Indoor 27 or Light 37 since he does have some obesity problems. When I comb him with a CLEAN brush (note : meaning not a single strand of fur on the brush), within a few strokes it'll be full of his grey fur. I bathe him once every two weeks and he takes some vitamins specific for his breed and for male castrated cats. Could this problem be worse because I had him castrated? I'm a student in Russia and i just had no idea that the vet was going to castrate him when i told them i wanted him neutered. Sigh..what should i do? I can't even hug him without changing into my "cat-shirt" first.
