A cat kind of adopted us a couple of years ago and I don't have a clue how old it is, but I also have a cat that is not even a year old and both of them have sagging stomachs. I feed them the wal-mart brand food and wondered if the kind of food they are eating is causing it. Anybody know what could be causing it?

We have two cats, one male and one female. they're from the same litter, so I don't think they will mate. But, I would like to breed my female cat, because she's mine and I would like to have the experience of seeing kitties be born.. I know the correct steps to care for kittens, I would give them away and if however many didn't get sold/given away, we would keep them. We would probably keep at least 1 or 2 anyway.
I was just wondering, do you think that it's wrong to breed your cat, if you're not a proffesional? If so, why??

I got my kitten when she was 6 weeks old. Her mother had already stopped allowing the kittens to nurse. We noticed after the first week that she had started trying to nurse off my male cat, and he allowed it. Now she is 11 weeks old and still using him as a pacifier. His poor little nipples are getting red and chapped. is there a way to break her of this?

I always end up so scratched up when I do this (and I'm planning to start monthly baths to help with flea issues), and I'm afraid that if I use enough force to keep myself safe, I'll hurt her. I mean, she sounds like she's dyin' whenever I do it, and then she doesn't trust me for awhile...
Any advice?

I have been seeing a guy for a few months now. When I first met him he had 3 dogs, and 6 cats ( and 5 4 week old kittens). I noticed that the dogs weren't trained to use the bathroom outside, and you could never use a counter because the cats constantly jump up there. They have no rules.
A few months down the road, his room mates return from a trip and now they have 5 dogs, 10 cats and another litter of 5 kittens.
He hasn't taken any of them to the vet to get shots, the house floor is constantly covered in animal piss, and really they are just a bunch of hippies who refuse to believe that this is boarderline animal negligence.
I took one of his kittens home to try and help him get rid of a few of them, only for that kitten to give my other cat, roundworms, fleas, and earmites. After research, all of his other animals must have these too. 2 kittens also died from an URT Infection. How can I convince him to get rid of his cats? It's unhealthy for him and them.

We don't have any rabied animals near us as far as we know.. But we have a few other cats. She was accidently let out, and she stayed out overnight, and now our other cat, Killer (who didnt get out) sniffs her, and then claws her.. Beauty claws too. NOw Beauty seems to be avoiding him, and she's acting weird to him.. I miss my old cat! They used to be good friends... what could be wrong? ALSO as I mention there's a few other cats otuside.. could she've gotten pregnant? I realize that there's at least one male..


PLEASE reply! (I can't take her to the vet 'cause my mom's at work)

She's seven-months-old I think. She was accidently outside for the whole nite, and we have a neighbor cat who's a black long-haired persian, and she's all black TOO! So, is it possible she could be pregnant?
ALSO Is seven-months-old a safe age? Or should she be older, to prevent birth defects, or her getting hurt?

I already have a vet appointment, but I am still very concerned and confused. I have a one year old female ferret, a marshal's ferret, which means she is fixed, and she is bleeding like she is in heat(remember she is fixed) and there is no swelling like if she was in heat though, but there is a small bump (like a mole), and there is also a light yellow color with the blood, and this morning she was sneezing like crazy and shivering...has anyone had this?

I also have a 3 month old cat, if that means anything at all. Please help or give me a web site.

my 8year old cat hardly gets them, but when he does i just have to comb and comb as nothing works to kill the little blighters, but now i've ended up having a kittne we believe to be 8-12 weeks old and the previous owner ( an absolute idiot who is something to do with my dads girlfriends family ) clearly hasnt looked after her and she is riddled with the things - she is swimming with fleas.
The kitten sleeps in seperate room to the other animals so we can avoid the 8year old cat or my dog catching them and they are checked, but how and with what do i treat this kitten because with there being so many fleas, i dont think combing will get them all. what can i use to kill the fleas on the kitten and which treatments have you found most effective?

I got a 3 years old siames female cat from the cats home, 5 days ago. Since then I hav seenher for approximately 30 seconds, when she came out to explore thinking I was out of the house.

She feeds and drinks, uses littler tray, all when I am not there, then disappears again.

I think she may be behind washing machine which is heavy and wedged in position. So I cannot shift it.

Has anyone got any suggestions to get this timid creature to come out please

I have this stray cat I took in a week ago. She was very underweight and had thin hips. Her stomach is pretty big thoguh for having such small hips. When I hold her I hear a fluid sound coming from her stomach, what could this be?

I've always had my animals fixed asap when I get them.
But, I've seen people say on this board that spaying a pregnant cat stops the pregnancy?
How could someone do such a thing!?
That's abortion, and it's just as bad as taking human lives.

I have a Siamese tomcat who is in denial. He was neutered (as an adult) but thinks he's still a stud cat. (Luckily he only pretends to spray--he shakes his tail at the door! LOL!) He tries to mate with females, has had a love affair with a blanket, & I have even woke up a few times and this sex maniac of a cat was sort of stomping in place on me, purring, with a major erection! At least he didn't bite my neck! But, not caring to participate, I put him on the floor. DH was freaked ( think he's jealous! LOL) but he said "At least he's not gay!"
I was at first surprised a neutered cat could get it up but people told me that is not so rare, but that they cant ejaculate. BUT one AM, vaguely half asleep, I noticed the cat stomping at the foot of the bed. Then when we awoke, there was clear liquid there on the blanket with an odd unfamiliar smell. I can't think of anything it could BE but cat semen Is that possible? He has balls that deflated after his op.Can neuters shoot blanks?

i think my cat got a little fat so some people told me to take out food with grains to help him lose weight and some other people said wet food is good to but no by-proudcts in it. so assume that tuna for people is the best because all whats in there is tuna and water and salt so am i right is tuna better than dry meow mix indoor fourmula for weight loss because tuna has less fat content and less calories. thanks

My cat tracks his litter everywhere. Any suggestions on how to stop this or at least cut back on how much is tracked. Thanks!

In advance to the wonderful people who "don't like cats" my husband has already suggested "we could always get rid of him".
To the cat lovers; Don't be mad at my husband, he is joking, kinda.

We are picking up our kittens tonight, they are 8 weeks old and there are 2. The thing is they are not completely weaned off their mum, but i am worried about keeping them where they are any longer as the owners are letting them outdoors even though they have not had there jabs yet. we know the owners. Do you think it would be ok to take them, and finishing weaning them ourselves as they are good at using the litter tray and cleaning themselve?
