I’ll try to get through as many as I can! If you’d like a name included, make sure you add it with the picture. Will be adding them to my portfolio if that’s okay with you (and your cat).

Advice Do your cats want you to watch over them while they're on the litterbox?

Upvotes

So my cat always accompanies me to the bathroom - this is fairly standard procedure for cats, and I've heard they do the same in their feral colonies. Keeping each other safe. Which made me think - I wonder if my cat thinks I'm an asshole for never following him to the litterbox. Does anyone have a cat who demands this?

(He has demanded that I watch him when he's eating)

Advice Why does my cat do this?

Upvotes

I have a 3 year old sphynx cat. She has a big bowl of clean water to drink out of but instead drinks of everywhere other than her bowl. After someone showers she waits at the door then goes in and drinks off the shower floor, or when someones drinking a cup of water she drinks out of if it. Why?

Medical Questions Cat's vomit is brown and runny

Thumbnail

Upvotes

I just got home from a Christmas trip with my family and found that one of my cats had thrown up on the floor. At first I thought it was poop but it didn't have a foul smell to it, it was just brown and runny.

My cat is fully vaccinated but has thrown up before. It was usually clear and sticky. I suspected that it was because he drank too much water because he really liked drinking water.

In the past few days I also noticed him becoming more vocal. He was normally a quiet cat, only meowing when he was hungry, but in the past few nights when I let him sleep on my bed, he would meow constantly despite having his leftover food, water bowl, and his litter box in my room. And he would always make noise at night, never during the day. But it could also be because another cat of ours would always play with him during the night so maybe he was just irritated??

Could this also be a sign of stress? My house has been very noisy ever since December began. There was Christmas Party, which included a lot of visitors and karaoke. But that took place two floors above where my cats stayed. The karaoke is also used every few nights or so, so maybe my cat is irritated at the noise?

I don't know what's wrong with him or maybe I'm just overthinking things, but I really just want to see my cat happy and healthy.

Any advice or suspicions on what may be the problem is greatly accepted. Thank you.

Mourning/Loss Vet is coming in the morning... 🥲

Thumbnail

My boy was unwell recently and had antibiotics. He's had tummy issues before which recurred with the meds. He was doing OK, not eating me out of house and home like normal but taking food. Then on Monday, he went off his food completely.

Appetite stimulants didn't work like usual so I've been syringe feeding him since Tuesday night. But today he really started kicking off about it and I didn't want to force him if he didn't want it.

On one hand I wanted him to rally; on the other he could come good only for this to recur again, except then I wouldn't be off work like I am now and able to care for/be with him.

My sister came over just now and said he seems checked out mentally. Even since yesterday he's lost a bit of his sass and spark.

I just got off the phone with the mobile vet; he's coming in the morning. I know logically it's the right thing to do but I'm trying to not fixate and just cry all night so I don't stress him out.

I wish I didn't know the exact time the vet was coming, but I also don't want to drag it out.

I don't know if I'm asking for advice or just venting, I just hope he can go peacefully and I'm not doing it too soon. He's over 18, a rescue, and he almost died two years ago (suspected a cancer) but he pulled through so yes we got bonus time. But it still hurts

His name is Roger 💗 and he is the bestest old boi 😭

Advice Guilt about talking to cat through camera

Post image
Upvotes

I have a camera set up to watch my cat when I’m away from the house. I’ve been gone for two nights for holiday travel to see family and couldn’t have anyone local come look in on her because it’s also the holidays for them (she’s set up with a fountain and an auto feeder and a ton of toys). I talked to her through the camera about once a day and she seemed to be okay about it, but I did it again this morning and I heard her start meowing and then go sit by the door for a good long while. I feel horrible for upsetting her. Should I stop talking to her through the camera altogether or am I overreacting? Cat tax included.

My heart is broken and I cant handle the feeling that she will never be there when im visiting my mum. I literally grew up with her and I loved her much more that every human. My sould has lost a part of it. Why on christmas...i knew she was old but that hurts like nothing else. She was family and everything I loved. Goodbye my little queen, I will scratch your fav spots when we meet again.
