Show us your kitty cats
- Thread starter ^TANK^
- Start date
I used to do it to him when he was a kitten, but he soon became a bit playful and those little kitty claws!
Now he just hates it lol.

We took our Ronnie to Vet last Thursday - He was scratching his right ear -Vet said he had a claw mark just inside of ear and it's is a bit messy so he is on antibiotics and painkillers.So kitty's back from the vet with some antibiotics to start with.
Heart fine, lungs fine. Teeth may need a clean again apparently (not been long since she had them done). Lost a couple of hundred grams of weight over the past 6 months which I'm not comfortable with.
Next step may be antihistamines, we'll see how the antibiotics work.
Twice a day for a week, that'll be fun for all concerned. At least it's not as daunting as to when we had to put drops in her ears twice a day for a fortnight....
We all still have PTSD from that
We give him the antibiotic pills crushed up and stired into a bit of cream -No problem.
The painkiller is liquid so last thing at night when he gets fed we just squeeze it on small amount of food.
Hope your cat will be fine.

Poor Bella was spayed on Friday, she's been a bit subdued. First time she's been on my lap since, so think she's on the mend now
One of Bluey snoozing too

That pair of gorgeous floofs seem to get bigger every post ! Keep them coming Ivan.

I can't believe how big bluey is in particular, 4.5kg! He's going to be huge

Indeed. To put it in perspective, I had a ten year old female who was 3Kg.
As it is, my two youngsters are nearly two years old and still less than 4Kg.
How old is Bella?

Kitty is not a fan of meds and the problem is she's stopped really eating. In fact nothing so far today. Only a couple of treats and water.
Currently curled up but she's not happy. Another call to the vet later is in order, it's horrible seeing her not well.
My cat is my kryptonite, I'm a soft ass mess when it comes to her.

They are brother and sister, both will be 6 months old on 2nd of march
Bella is currently only 2.84kg, so quite dinky in comparison.
I reckon Bluey will hit at least 8kg when fully grown.
Bella is off to the vet for a checkup for her spaying tonight, not looking forward to it. She hates the pet carrier and car journey

Have you tried tinned tuna in spring water? I've found that to be kitty crack.
Hope she picks up soon.
Soldato
Just tried tuna, no dice. Thanks for the suggestion though.
I always fear the worse seeing as she's getting on. We'll keep trying and if no joy by tomorrow she's tentatively booked in at the vets.
E: She's even turned her nose up at treats. It's all unusual, she never ever loses her appetite, no matter what.

Hope she's okay, my Ron stopped eating for awhile and I was worried sick. tried many different food variants and he wouldn't touch anything. after about a week he started eating again and is back to his normal food however now I rotate among different ones each day so he doesn't get bored

@adidan Teeth issues?
Soldato
I was wondering that as she had them cleaned a couple of years ago. The vet did say they could maybe do with a clean again but wasn't overly convinced they were the issue. Yet.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was that. If the antibiotics help then the vet says it probably is a teeth thing. They ain't working yet though.
E: Last time she needed them cleaned she didn't lose her appetite though. Maybe it's more of an actual dental issue rather than just a clean needed
E: E: She's had a nibble on a bit of tuna and cooked chicken so that's positive at least.

She’s checked, the microwave is fine.
No cone of shame? When Luna was spade she had to have the cone for 10 days and 2 x vet visits to make sure everything was going well.
Took her awhile to get back to her normal self
Both my cats follow me around until I have fed them when I first get up in the mornings.
Sometimes they go to the extent of using my leg as a scratching post if I am taking too long
