nope, i cant afford visiting a vet
my cat keeps meowing while looking at me, licking my arm and hugging my leg… And all i can do is pet her…. And then she stops, sits quietly. I know she’s in pain, her cries show it clearly but still i can’t do anything to help her.

Wish i could understand what my cat tries to say… She keeps meowing while looking at me, licking my arm and hugging my leg… And all i can do is pet her…. And then she stops, sits quietly… But when she does it all again. I know she’s in pain, her crys shows it clearly but still i can’t do anything to help her. It’s upsetting.
Wish i could understand
Hi Dr. Magnifico. We brought Boogie, our DSH tuxedo cat in to see you nearly two weeks ago for what we suspected was a sprained leg. You didn’t think that was the case, but recommended us to crate him for two weeks, which we have been doing.
When we were there, you spoke to my husband and myself about how much food to feed our overweight cats (we have 6 cats, all overweight).
Since seeing you, we switched to Science Diet “Perfect Weight” Adult Dry, Chicken Recipe, from the “9 Lives” that we were feeding them. They love the Science Diet dry food we are feeding them now.
We also tried several of the Science Diet wet foods, with all our cats, and they want nothing to do with any of them.
It looks like we are going to have to stick with “Fancy Feast” for the wet food, but we are going to stop giving them the “Fancy Feast” gravy recipes, which was their favorite.
My question to you is, since the “Fancy Feast” wet foods come in small 3 oz cans, how many 3 oz cans per day, per cat?
Thank you so much!
Terri

Hope Dr. Magnifico is reading this message soon as I do not know what to do. I noticed one of my cats, Dexter, attempting to pee on a cardboard box outside of the litter box. When I approached him he moved only to go to another area and attempt to pee. Having male cats blocked before or with UTI, I knew to keep watch on him. He was laying down and let me brush him for a while and acting okay. I then took a moist tissue and just patted his pee/butt area and a dried piece of poo came off. I thought yeah… that may be the problem because he immediately went to the litter box. After about 5 minutes he left the box without going to the bathroom. Should I take him to the emergency room or could it wait until you open in the morning. If you think I need to take him, which one do you recommend the most. Thanks Sandy Brown
What happens when the cat catches a mouse, even if the mouse are poised? I can’t stop the cat but I also don’t want anything to happen to my cat.

Sygaese Srynguaveilii It’s not common to find a poisoned mouse, whether it lives inside or outside. Your cat is most likely meowing because everything is new to him, and he’s probably anxious, getting used to everything. Don’t worry, there’s not a serious problem. If your cat had caught and eaten a poisoned mouse, your cat would probably not meow at all and wouldn’t eat or drink. It’s most likely because he’s in a whole new place around new people and new smells, and is probably just anxious. He will get used to it and calm down eventually. 🙂

Briana Briggs Okay good thank you. So he seen a mouse and was throwing it around but I also think he killed it so I took it and threw it out. I’m just scared my cat will get sick from biting or messing with the mouse. Do you have any suggestions?

Sygaese Srynguaveilii Just keep a close eye on him, make sure he doesn’t start acting any differently (e.g. sudden loss of appetite, lethargy, vomit, etc.) and if you notice anything odd or unusual or that something’s changed, you should see a vet.
Recently, my cat has had possible seizures. This only happens when he gets in a grooming position where he twists his upper body around to be able to lick his back. He then stiffens up, and falls over. A couple of days ago, he urinated on my bed while he was having a possible seizure. Are these seizures or a nerve getting pinched?
So my husband passed away 2 months ago we had 3 cats since they were 6 weeks old they are now 4 years old well animal control came and took my dog and 3 cats well I got my male cat back but his sisters were adopted out but this is his 2 night home and he is being really fiesty and keeps meowing and he just looks at me like he wants to pounce on me.. He was in Halifax humane society for 2 months..

Anonymous first of all, i’m so sorry for your losses and all of your upheaval. that’s a lot to deal with all at once. i hope you’re doing okay.
secondly, he may just need reacclimation to your home. please try to be patient with him. my male cat was this way when i brought him home from the shelter…he was absolutely NUTS for a while. the only thing that really helped was increased interactive playtime, so i bought a wand toy and went “fishing.” that seemed to help.
My cat got out for 24 hours. When he returned he had a small black dot on his inner ear. That area swelled over the past 2 days. It seems the same or slightly less than yesterday. Vet tonight or tomorrow?
What is the best hairball remedy/medication for cats? USA product..
My cat just gave birth to only one kitten. I’ve been reading online that having only one is uncommon. Should I be worried?
are you certain this is pain? cats tend to hide when they’re hurting. what does your vet say?
