Tapeworm!!!!

The other day i noticed hard rice like bits round my cats tail. I thought oh god I hope he’s not got worms - then decided it was just bits of a bush he’d been in. Today my younger cat vomited up a tapeworm. I’m traumatised! And horrified! How do I treat? I’d run out of dewormer this time round and h...

Re: Stressed cat losing weight

He’s only 3 - or will be in April. He seems absolutely fine in himself and I wouldn’t say he’s stressed; he’s killing birds, skipping round the garden and woods (we’ve watched him from the house), settles down for a cuddle and a purr at night, and I also had any fears of him getting stressed by my 1...

Stressed cat losing weight

Hello, hoping for some help. A few weeks ago my cat showed up at home with a bald patch. It turned out that he was pulling his fur out and as it got worse I took him to the vet. She said he’d lost weight and was stressed. She advised feliway and omega 3. I’ve plugged in the feliway but need to wait ...

Re: Cat won’t stay home

Thanks for replying Kay. There is another cat that comes into the garden - my other cat loves her but I think she’s the reason for the first cat running off as they don’t get on. The trouble is the people at my old house love him! They can’t see him go without food and don’t mind him comin in even t...

Cat won’t stay home

Hello everyone. Since moving house in May our two cats have behaved very differently to one another. One has stayed home and settled in with no problems. The other, his brother, has made ten escapes to the old house (which is in the same village). He’s currently on escape no. 10 and I’m waiting for ...

Poo in garden!

Any advice greatly appreciated! We have two cats and recently moved house (well, in May). We got a large fence round our back garden to replace the low wall that had been there. Since then, there’s been lots of poo on the lawn. They can get out of the garden because I’ve seen them do it. I put litte...

Re: Cat keeps wandering back to old home!

Thanks for your advice! He’s back home now and grounded. I was going to keep him to one room todtqrt with but he’s missed his brother so I’m giving him the rub of the house but shutting him in one room overnight with his bed. That way his bro can still come and go. Will think about letting him out i...

Cat keeps wandering back to old home!

Hello, We moved house 6 weeks ago. In that time, one of my cats went off for 24 hours but is now fine, but his brother wandered off for a week and ended up back at our old house a few streets away. He came back, went out after a couple of days and was coming and going fine but then left for 2 days I...

Clumsy cat

Hello - looking for a little bit of advice. My rescue cat Thunder is 2 now, I’ve had him since he was a kitten. A bit of background on him - he’s never miaowed, purrs loudly though! And for some reason is usually quite sensitive on his head. I have his brother too who is completely different. Today ...
