My 3 year old cat hasn't been eating for the last few days and napping more. I took her to the vet this morning and he said she has jaundice. They took x-rays and blood work. I'm worried there's something seriously wrong with her.

Has anyone here had experience with this in their cats? My other two older cats are doing well. So this is a shock for me.

Yeah, not glittery as the other bengal but way more friendly. Loved to sit on top of doors and climb in the closet to dive bomb me in the night when I slept. My wife got him for free when he had his balls and he was a hellion, pissing and screaming everywhere. Gave him the snip and he turned into an A+ lad.

Please give an update when you know more.

I've noticed that most peoples bengals are lithe, somewhat like small servals, but my boy was always stocky, even when he was a skinny stray. He's purebred bengal according to vet so wonder if there are sub breeds of bengals.

>>5054633
The other bengal, Balentine, is fat as fuck. Big jiggly chicken. Same colouring as yours, funny enough.

Is this a cat general? Fuck it, I'm in crisis regarding owning a cat. I have 3 house cats, 1 male, and the rest are females, all 2 years old. Yesterday, a stray male cat sneaked into my house and started brawling with my male cat, and he/they both ended up shitting all over my kitchen before I noticed it and got that stray male cat out of the house. Is this a normal behaviour for cats to shit all over the place when they fight? I truly lost any interest in cats after what had happened; it was a mess...I don't even know what's clean or not anymore.

Maybe someone here can help me. I adopted a bonded pair of sisters a couple weeks ago - a tuxedo and a calico. They've been comfortable and friendly with each other the whole time but the calico has been fighting the tux since yesterday. The calico is mostly relaxed but it seems like it's really stressing out the tux. She's been growling and hissing when the calico starts it up again, but I haven't been seeing the same behavior from the calico even though she's been aggressive, stalking and instigating. My apartment is essentially one big room and while I could leave one in a closet or my bathroom, I really don't want to have to. For the most part they've been chilling in different corners of the apartment since then and while they've been near each other without issue several times since yesterday, I'm still a bit afraid to leave them alone in case the calico starts going at the tux again.
Any advice?

Yes, that's totally normal and it's one of many reasons people need to keep their cats contained. Animals fight. Animals attack random shit for no reason. They're like illiterate, non-verbal hobos.

You need to quarantine the male cat that got attacked and get him tested for FIV. Right fucking meow.

If your male already bit or scratched any of the other cats due to stress, or any other cats got hurt, also test them for FIV.

Also, keep an eye out for FIP. TNR faggots, "community" (feral) cat feeders, and outdoor cat fucktards are largely responsible for the spread of these two debilitating diseases (FIV/FIP).

>>5054938
NTA but I had it happen once. Door from the basement to the garage has to be shut pretty hard or it doesn't latch but my mom forgot to close it tight. Then she didn't close the garage door after driving out.
Only caught a glimpse of the stray after hearing one of mine defending his turf which led me to the open door.

>>5054938
my third world kitchen part of the house have that gap between the roof and the kitchen wall and near that wall there's a tall fridge the stray cat use to jump in and out of the kitchen.
>>5054965
>get him tested for FIV. Right fucking meow.
Fuck. My male cat who got into the fight also have this 2 inches long scratch on his shoulder blade.
Thanks for the info and warning, the cat seems fine as he wants me to pick him up as soon as he saw me after the incident but he was covered in poops, so I had to take him to the shower first. Hopefully I didn't just increase his stress.

>>5054990
FIV takes 30-60 days to be detectable lol

I need help. I was bitten by my cat a couple day ago which caused three small wounds around my palm. They have healed apart from what resembles a skin abscess. There's a pocket of pus surrounded by a red area but it's not swollen. My head also feels lightheaded.
I already disinfected it and wrapped a bandage around it but I don't know if that's good enough. I cannot visit a hospital right now. Has anyone dealt with this before?

I saw a ragdoll strolling around who would allow such an expensive cat to roam around freely?

i don't know what the fuck to do. he yells and yells until i walk up to him, then he runs and hides under a table and won't come out for anything. if i leave, he starts all over again. FUCK.

is he in pain or hungry?
if not, you'll just have to ignore him to train him to stop

>>5055318

My cat's terrified of dogs, but occasionally one has to come over to my house for an hour or so. The dog's well-behaved and about the same since as my cat, but she starts growling and hissing at the dog if it comes anywhere near her.
Is there any way to help her realize it won't hurt her? Or at least get her to not fear it so much?

Just keep in mind wildlife authorities love to euthanize these animals. Behaving affectionately towards humans makes it exponentially more likely they get euthanized.

This week has been hell. My cat's had diarrhea for seven days straight and all the test results so far don't seem to indicate an obvious cause. Vet suggested screening for GI cancers next if it doesn't resolve itself, but it seems like it's gotten better finally. The other main option being considered is pancreatitis. He hasn't shit once today which I was told might be the case for a few days after his diarrhea resolves since his intestines will be completely clear.

But now he hasn't urinated more than once in about 24h either. Throughout this whole week he was urinating normal, his eating and drinking have remained normal, and he's had urine testing done during all this that hasn't indicated much but mild dehydration. And he received fluids on Saturday. What the fuck man. I just want my cat to be okay.

Is it normal for cats to sleep in shifts and stare at the window in shifts?
I'm cat sitting for my grandma while she's on a trip, and her cats take turns napping at the bedroom cat tower while the other is by the living room window.

One of mine, when she gets a little cold or something stresses her out, sometimes stops eating. I have to slowly coax her back into eating by giving her only her absolute favorite treats, sometimes also force/syringe feeding her food and water. After a few days she starts eating a bit by herself and recovers. It's very dangerous for cats to go that long without food - it's what's caused the jaundice. If your vet hasn't told you to get food in her asap anyway you can, you should get a new vet. >>5054922
Get a bunch of cat trees and/or shelves, so they have plenty of places to get away from each other. Lots of play time with them - for the aggressor to exert the hunting instinct on toys instead of her sister, and for the victim to gain confidence.

Only results that came back with anything of note are a slightly lower WBC count, presumed to be from stress, slightly elevated amalase level, presumed to be from inflammation, and mild dehydration. I should have the last of the results back tomorrow but he seems to be doing better. His urination is closer to normal as of today and he had his first regular bowel movement today as well. To my surprise the vets weren't concerned about the urination when I spoke to them in the morning, so long as he was still going at least once a day and eating and drinking they said it was fine given the circumstances. I think the subcutaneous fluids he received might have affected things.

Follow-up plan right now is to retest bloodwork in a month, though I'm not really sure what they're looking for since most of it was normal. It was also suggested he get a complete abdominal ultrasound to screen for GI cancers if he didn't improve and I plan to ask if it's still worth it. One vet also suggested the possibility of testing for FeLV or FIV if things didn't improve given the WBC, but this seems less worth it to me since he's not high risk.

>>5056858
Oh and they also felt to check for any indications of obstruction but didn't perform testing to completely rule it out as they didn't feel like it was worth it at that point.

Her bloodwork came back negative for all the fatal stuff. My vet thinks she is just dealing with a feline corona virus flare up. I've been giving her the oral antibiotics for 6 days and she'd eat small amounts of food everyday.
Today I went back and he gave her an injection of Convenia and DepoMedrol. She seems to be back to eating again but I'll wait and see until the steroid weakens. Hopefully it's not FIP.

Hate to vetpost but I'm pacing around my room right now.
The little satan in pic appeared in my backyard yesterday. Initially I was elated and fed him but long story short is he's missing an eye, and he probably lost it from herpes. Sniffling and breathing heavily, I think his other eye is a bit cloudy as well.
I know he's become my problem now and I'm willing to fork however much in steroids or whatever to save his other eye, even stitches to shut his eye socket but then what. There are other cats around here everyone is gonna catch it, I can't isolate him or them.
I don't even know what my question is, just asking for advice generally. Will any shelter take him?
For the record, he's extremely trusting of people and keeps meowing when nobody is around, I think he's an abandoned pet.

>>5056538

Take him to a vet and find out

>>5057254
First find out if that's actually what's going on from the vet, Anon. Then after, and get this guy taken care of. He's yours now, so it's up to you. After that, try to get the other cats taken care of with your neighbors, charity, or shelter. I've had neighbors split vet bills for feral colonies before, including getting them spayed and neutered, and then they've gone on to adopt the more social ones.

Alright, vet gave him an antibiotic shot and told me to isolate him for now. We'll wait a week and if the others don't show any symptoms we'll vaccinate them for herpes.
I have a large cage with chicken wire for hens with newborn chicks during the summer, I'll put him there for now, hopefully it doesn't stress him enough to supercharge the herpes, idk how that works.
His good eye seems fine, I may have misjudged it because I used a bright light after dark to check it, still she gave me some drops for it.
I mean I can take care of him long term it's not like outdoors cats need a lot of effort, I'm just afraid of herpes flare ups and being a potential infection site for anything that passes through, hopefully the vaccine is enough for the regulars.
>>5057327
We're talking about 2-3 outdoors cats including one that's mine that just come in contact often. They're being "taken care of" but idk if I can intrude on how much they care for them. At least they won't say no the shot if I pay for it.
Again sorry for the essay post with the obvious

Cute little creature you got there. idk how cat herpes works but hopefully it isnt too contagious. Listen to the vet and love that cat good. Did you pick a name yet?

>>5057688
>They're being "taken care of" but idk if I can intrude on how much they care for them. At least they won't say no the shot if I pay for it.
First get your vet's assessment of this guy. And on whether whatever caused it is communicable to the other cats. Make sure you know that first. Pay his vet bill in full, he's your responsibility alone. Then offer to split the necessary vet bills equally between any neighbors interested to prevent it in the other cats if it's necessary, it's that simple. If they say no, ask shelters, charity, or the vets for their recommendation, help, or resources.

I have a very non-barfy 8 yr old female who just (somehow) up clear liquid. Completely watery but with a faint smell of non-urine. I didn't see it happen and she sat upright with her tail around her as if unnerved.

The water came out half a body ahead of her and very linear in shape, so it'd make sense if she had barfed from that position, but it was completely clear despite just having ate kibble.

vet? she has thrown up once in 3 years prior to this. Just odd it'd be clear water with no hint of acid (maybe the smell was acid..)

Is it ethical to leave a stray cat behind when you move out of the city he’s in?

I feel regret every day for leaving poor Trooper behind. I didn’t want to take him to a shelter because he’s still partly feral & he might have been put down. I just didn’t know what to do.

I hope you’re OK, Trooper…

Ethical? Lol.

>>5061028
Why didn't you take him in, or with you? People who care for strays and feral colonies have moved them when needed. Your regret is telling you something. I think you should go back for him.

a friend gave me a couple plants as a birthday gift (he made sure they were 100% safe for cats) but my cat is really obsessed with chewing on them and eating them, how can i get him to stop doing that? i have a spray bottle from when he was really into scratching my furniture as a kitten but i'll spray him and he'll just stare at me and go back to eating my plants

one is settling in okay, i can pet him but he still prefers to hide most of the time
the other just vanished
i saw him yesterday before going to bed (he was hidden pretty good) but today i just cant manage to find him
im like 99% certain he is in the appartment somewhere, but im getting nervous

>>5061448
they'll come out of their shells eventually. good for you to adopt both of them since they're bonded together

I need advice, because google isn't as specific as i'd like.
No image, but I have a 15-16 year old shelter cat. My aunt adopted her, but gave her to me and my mother when she couldn't keep her.
Recently, we got a large flat screen TV. We didn't have the tools to set the mount to the wall, so we just set it down against the wall for a few days. This set her off BADLY, fully hissing and raising hackles at it. She does not like other cats at all, and apparently she's never see her reflection before. We covered the TV, thinking that was the end of it but no. Ever since, she has been hyper vigilant towards any and all reflections in the house. The mirror in my mother's room, the reflection on a window in the kitchen, etc. Even today, she discovered that the side of my computer that's usually against the wall has a reflection and has been trying to get at it since. I've been trying to either hide or cover whatever she finds, but it's getting a bit out of hand. Is there a way I can try and reintroduce her to reflections in a way that she isn't scared of?

>>5061624
Poor old ladycat. Haven't dealt with this myself, but maybe try following cat introduction steps and tips. Keep one room "safe," free of reflections, as best you can. Her favorite foods and treats given gradually closer to her reflection, lots of playtime and affection. Could try feliway too.
How is her behavior and mood when not looking at herself? How does she take just leaving her to look at herself and not covering things, does her big reaction gradually get less intense? Or is it a constant stress for her?

>>5054922
Did you introduce any new scents to the house? My cats (2 brothers) get like this if we are forced to bathe them. We do a 'scent transfer' after the bath now, and it always works well. Basically just get a sock or something similar and rub it against one of the cat's faces, take it over to the other cat and do the same. Alternate between each cat a few times and then you can try and reintroduce them. If this doesn't work, you may need to separate them into different rooms and do the scent transfer much more gradually over the course of a few days. Reward each cat every time it interacts with the scented object.

>>5061448
He will probably come out at night time anon. Is there any way you could test this - leave food somewhere only he will get to?

>leash? but he's such a good boy. he always listens. and he needs to be free! i'm not a slave driver
animals are fucking retarded and kill everything smaller than them before getting killed. don't let your cat out. maybe if you could keep them fenced, but you probably can't.

besides if you got a cat for pest control it will only ever have a chance at helping if contained to a building. outdoors they will eat everything but the (harder to catch) pests and the more distributed scent is not a no-go environment for mice and rats, it's just a signal that they should hide better so pest problems sneak up on you. "a cat lives around here, better be careful" vs "let's not go in the cave that smells like cat pee" are different yknow.

>>5064173
Yes. The cat owners fence.

>>5064184
Owning a pet parrot can be incredibly rewarding because they’re intelligent, social, and vibrant companions who bring color and life to any home. They can mimic sounds, form strong bonds, and provide endless entertainment and affection. Parrots also promote mental stimulation and responsibility, enriching their owners' lives.

As for budgies, they could thrive in a world without cats because cats are natural predators of small birds. Without cats, budgies would face fewer threats, reducing stress and mortality rates. They’d have more freedom to fly and socialize, leading to healthier, happier populations. This change could foster a safer environment for tiny birds, allowing them to flourish and display their playful, lively nature more fully.

I let my cat out but my yard is fenced in and my cats are old. I also live in a rural area and there are farm cats everywhere wandering out in the open. Cats aren’t meant to be dumb foid apartment animals, they’re not really meant to be something you put endless attention into, they’re little predators that annihilate all small animal life for the sake of keeping pests away from the farm and a farmer doesn’t worry too much if one goes missing since there are plenty more where that came from. Of course I provide my cats with a better life than that, but that is the deal they struck with humanity when they self-domesticated.

North America already has bobcats and coyotes, I’m not worried about kots murdering everything in the already artificial environments we live in, they in turn would be prey in the real wilderness of America

There’s a bird nest in the tree in my front yard I couldn’t find it, but my cat brought a baby bird to the porch. I stopped her from killing it, and the bird got away. Poor thing, I feel very guilty. Hope its okay now. Not letting my cat outside until I am certain they are gone.

Just say youre a careless piece of shit that doesnt give a damn about animals or nature and be done with it

Enough with this pathetic little deception where you pretend you care
You dont
All you care about is your own convenience
Fine
Now shut the fuck up about it

Is it normal for kots to always wake up at 5am and annoy you to no end until you finally play and feed them?

I love my kot and I'd give my life for her but since this piss demon arrived I haven't had a full night of sleep.

Do you feed her right before bed, can you feed her a larger portion so there's some leftover to go back to? Most cats like schedules too and you can use that. Start feeding her at the same time every morning and night. Might want to try starting at 5:30am and push it back by half hour increments. Ignoring bad behavior and rewarding good. Maybe give her a puzzle feeder or treatball for overnight as well. Most of mine become patient when on a schedule. There is one that doesn't and also wakes me at 5 though lol.

Heartbreakingly adorable

I forgot to mention in this post that I love the smell of my dog's butt

>>5064398
She got used to being fed at 5:30am - 6am and eat whatever during the day, maybe I should move the food and indeed start giving her food at... 22:00 or 12:00am?
She's 2 years old and has been eating at the same times for almost more than a year now. I hope it's not too late to give her the same portions at different times.

why are so many cat people always fantasizing about other people doing weird shit with dog butts? is it the toxo?

we must genetically engineer a cat replacement that is incapable of transmitting schizoworms

don't hunt the outdoor cats! they're very easy to trap and relocate humanely. all of my friends and family just catch them, neuter them, and train them instead of paying shelters money and submitting to karen's bullshit just to get a cat.

Less lazy than me, my boy had a cat condo with a heated pad at the top

I might try to staple a blanket onto it but I don't know if I could attach something securely enough for it to not come off when he climbs up to it.

Nah just a dumb foid that belongs on reddit, it's incongruent to own a predatory animal and claim you care about "animals and nature", your apartment cat couldn't survive without factory farming. Cats are ultimately happier outside living their lives than they are stuck in a 700sqft apartment. You're doing no favors to your cat but wholly serving yourself and your need for a substitute child locking it indoors. TBQH I believe this sort of pet ownership is somewhat cruel, and you'd be better off not owning a pet if they couldn't stretch their legs and live the lives their instincts and hormones are screaming at them to live. These cats I own are basically older adopted cats, and I've taken them in to allow them to live out their lives in the manner they are accustomed, I won't buy a new cat.

I don't really give a fuck about small birds and rodents in my backyard, they are not going to go extinct in North America, and as stated it would be incongruent to care too much about their suffering while owning a predator and eating meat myself.

Max is a champion mouser in kitty heaven, what a handsome boy.

>>5064433
Ah yes outdoor cats are happier getting ran over by cars, eaten by larger predators, cat territory gang wars, preyed on by schizo humans, constantly dehydrated, dealing with the weather elements. Totally worth it since they get to eat a bird or frog every now and then.

I just watched my cat die of heart failure.17 years, gone.
Press F and give your cat a hug anon

>>5064195
no, your fence for the pooch especially .Cats are not a danger for others

>>5064196
nice yes-man AI you NPC faggot. Also, wrong

>>5064405
That's definitely the issue then. I wake up at 7:30 and feed the cat at 8:00, so every day at 7:30 if I'm not up he'll try and wake up me, and at 8:00 if he's not fed will meow until I feed him. I've also heard of cats who will bother their owner at bed time until they go to bed.

Stop replying to the birdfucker/dogfucker trolls. Don't let this place become zoophile central like /dog/

my oldest is 12 now and i never really thought about how old she was getting until now
ive just been spending more time with her and living in the moment
she always starts purring like an engine when i get close to her and i haven't appreciated how precious that is until now

>>5064668
Sorry for your loss, anon. We really never get enough time with them.

>>5064754
It kind of just happened. While I wake up later, I live with someone who has to wake up at around 5-5:30am for their work and the cat just kind of woke up with them.

Today tho we're going to try changing the feeding times a bit to make 12am and 12pm.

>>5064668
I'm so sorry anon, I can understand the pain. Spent those 17 years being incredibly happy with you
