Cat Behavior

If you are short on money and can't afford a vet phone around and many of them will give you credit, or, if you offer to walk their pets in the clinic they may let you pay your vet bill off this way. A good vet NEVER turns away a sick animal. I am happy to say I have a terrific female vet who would rather use her skills to save lives then collect money! She even has a little container that if one chooses we can chip in money for the elderly. Many of the elderly find it difficult to eat if they get their medications, so they certainly don't have extra money for vet bills. See that vet! Marcy Take your cat to the vet! Take it to the vet get a check up immedetly or contact someone you know who has been in a similer situation!good luck hope it gets better! Well, one thing that might happen is that your cat will dehydrate and die. That's if whatever else is going on isn't serious enough to kill it first. It doesn't matter if you know a million people who've been in the same situation. Don't call them; call your vet. That poor cat needs treatment quick.

Purr

it is normal for a female to bite the back of the kittens neck when they want to move them to a place that they think is safe, but a male? if the male is the kittens father then he may be trying to be like the mother but normally the father doesn't want anything to do with the kittens and if he isn't related to the kittens, then he doesn't like them and is trying to hurt them or even kill them, in some cases.

Does it keep running round the house? My cat does that, it could be stuff inside the walls that it hears or catnip somewhere. x

Well if its foaming at the mouth....it probley ate something it wasnt supposed to....and about the watering eye....it could be an eye infection...cats can get eye infections verry easily. Maybe you should go see a vet.

It shouldn't. We have two cats. We give them the leftover juice when we have tuna, and they're fine.

24 paws :)

Probably because they like each over and want to mate!

Normally. Yes. If you don't provide a secure place for your cat to give birth, the mother cat will find a place to hide. My mother cat gave birth on Father's Day and just before she gave birth she was hunting for a hiding place. It is best to provide a secure place for the mother cat to give birth, which I did and she had 6 beautiful kittens (Manx).

Yes. A 17-year old is considered a runaway. Not until the legal age of 18 can she move out legally.

You should definitely take your cat to a vet if this happened. If it was a small piece, it would probably just pass through the cat's digestive tract. However, large pieces of string or ribbon can get tangled in a cat's intestines as it moves through their system. It is extremely dangerous if this happens because it can cut off circulation to parts of the intestine as well as cause parts to become blocked and inflamed.

it just depends on how ur asking but yes i do have 3 cats 2 are inside and 1 is outside

That is absolutely disgusting, but I'm sure the dog will be fine. Dogs lick all kinds of disgusting things. Including their own poop (sometimes).

NEVER replace a cat because of its personality. Some cats naturally prefer to be on their own. It is normal for an established cat not to be immediately friendly with a new cat. Providing time, space, and a slow introduction between the two cats is the best way to help them get along.

You should provide all the cats with plenty of space. Fun, entertaining things to do. Cat trees, or if they are too expensive, make one of your own using boxes or other stackable items, windows, etc. Just putting some bins or boxes of varying heights up against a window helps.

Never put them in one room together because that will make them feel crowded and forced together and they will fight more. In fact, it is always advised to keep them in separate rooms for the first week or so, with the only contact being swapping scents and short, supervised introductions. Also, there are some remedies that are harmless and made all naturally like Bach remedies. We buy the Holly remedy and it works. Also there are calming pheromones like Feliway and collars with calming stuff on them. Look them up. :)

All cats are different with different habits but when cats are happy there tail is a little bent at the top. If it is straight, the cat may not be happy.

If a cat sprays somewhere not in the litter box he is marking there territory. Purring is a sign of affection too. If he scratches you it is also a sign of affection.

Let your cats run around and get some exercise. If your cat is sleeping it is wise not to wake it up, cats need at least 16 hours of sleep.

Do not overfeed your cat, he will get fat and lazy it could hurt them inside, Cats are always wanting more food if you didn't give them enough then make sure you give them the appropriate amount.

no

using a person for your own ends and means as he has his back to the wall

Cats love to play. You'll want to teach your kitten to not use its claws or teeth when playing. Basically, you pull away and stop playing whenever it shows signs of using its teeth or claws, until it calms down.

See the referenced link below for more detail.

No. It's just "leftover" hormones that will go away.

You should take him to the vet. It might be a nervous (stress) condition or he might have parasites or an allergy of some kind.

There's a number of ways you can handle it...

1 - Move the plant to another location that is impossible for the cat to reach.

2 - Place a covering or blackade at the directions the cat usually approaches.

3 - Buy a shock mat and place the plant on top. When the cat steps on it, he will get shocked and stay away.

4 - Buy a sprayer that will automatically spray the cat when it detects motion (the cat approaching).

5 - Self-spray the cat when he comes near

6 - Place a pheromone nearby that will keep him away.

7 - Put a toy or treat of intrest nearby to distract his attention.

8 - Seclude the plant (ex: under an outdoor shelf) so the cat will loose intrest and/or miss it entirely.

Hope this helps! Good luck!

Cats are very seldom castrated; a neutered cat does retain his penis. And a neutered tom will still cover a queen in heat, because his reactions to her scents and actions will still be in place.

A cat will rub its body and head on your legs because it is marking you as its own.The cat believes you are his/hers. Purring can be a sign of happiness, anger, frightened, or excitment.

it just depend on you either to leave it alone or to watch it.It's your choice.
