Our Cat Used To Be Very Sociable With Other People, Even In Large Groups, Now…

Our cat used to be very sociable with other people, even in large groups, now he is timid when we have more than a few people over. We got him in February, when he was 11 months old, and are wondering why he might have changed his behavior?

    Unfortunately there is not much you can do except try to keep him from hitting it on anything.  It sounds like he might have what is called an ear hematoma which is when dogs get a collection of blood in the outer portion of the ear.  Usually if this is hit on something before the vet can drain it blood and bloody serum can be thrown around while the dog is shaking it’s head.  It really isn’t dangerous to the dog’s health but it can make a horrible mess.  Good luck, wish there was more I could do!

    If you honestly cannot afford to get her well and keep her healthy, please surrender her.  Please.  This is for her health.  Please.

    It is likely more inflammation than actually abscess.  I would try getting him to see a vet for treatment as soon as you can.

    Depending on the size of your dog, it may pass.  I’d call your vet for advice, though…they may want you to bring the dog in immediately.

    After plucking feather Pull the feather that is bleeding, this should stop the bleeding, if not try direct pressure on area after plucking feather

So, I’m taking care of my friend’s cat, and was instructed to feed her 2 cans of food per day.. Yesterday, the cat just wouldn’t stop begging for more food. I had to give her 4 cans throughout the day. Is that normal or healthy?

    Yes, that can definitely be normal and healthy.

  2. Laura

    Cats can be horribly manipulative.  Provided she is healthy, I wouldn’t worry.  I’d let your friend know, though. 🙂

  3. Dawn Ferara, DVM

    If she is only suppose to have 2 cans I would break up the 2 cans into 4 feedings, this may help
