Cat Chat Feline Forum

Thank you.
I found the new vet to be very professional and positive.
I'm also so happy for Kitty, we all love her so much. She's growing up fast and she is a very happy kitten.

Hi all, Just been to the vet. Kitty has gained weight, she's now 950g! She's healthy and vet said I'm doing good in keeping her on a bland diet and introducing kitten foods slowly. She has been de-flead and de-wormed. Vaccinations to be followed in 2 weeks time. Thank you once again for all your use...

personally I don't think many vets can find out too much about internal problems simply by an examination - and I find sometimes you have to push for blood tests, xrays, scans etc before you get a diagnosis - there's a bit of a tendency to shove antibiotics at you and hope for the best initially an...

In fairness to vets diarrhoea is such a vague symptom and can have so many causes from innocent to life-threatening that theirs is a really challenging job. Really expensive tests can only sometimes yield answers and a simple poke around certainly isn't going to confirm any diagnosis. As my vet put...

Just an update about Kitty. She's is doing fine. Diarrhoea has stopped. I've started to introduce dry food (very little once a day) mixed with her boiled fish or boiled chicken and pumpkin. I've booked her in for her first vaccination and for fleas treatment. As she's been dewormed already I've been...

Glad to hear things are settling down for her. I would be wary about keeping her purely on Applaws wet food as I now it is a 'complementary' food not a complete one (unless you have found a variety that is different to what I get) so might be lacking in some essential vitamins or minerals. I'm not ...

Thank you.
Will look into doing it monthly now.
Also about vaccinations, does an indoor cat needs them?
How about fleas for an indoor cat?
Thank you x

Re: dewormer; where can I buy it? She had already a 3 days course of this, can I give her more now? Also how many times at month/year do you deworm? Woke up this morning only to find a normal motion in the litter! I'm so relieved and happy Kitty is better and doesn't have any diarrhoea! I'm keeping ...

So today I've tried the canned pumpkin and mixed a little with boiled chicken, she loved it! She passed lose stools oy 3 times today and they were much less smelly. It was a much better day altogether. As for the dewormer, Panache paste, yes will need the vet to prescribe some but she's not even 700...

Thank you ever so much to the both of you for your kind advice, words of encouragement and support. Kitty was low yesterday but my hubby said she is usually quiet in the evening as she gets tired ( usually I'm at work in the evening and yesterday I was off). Otherwise she's happy and playful. I'll t...

We don't really know how old she is exactly. The previous owner said she was 8 weeks. When I took to the vet, she was weighted and she was only 600g and the vet said she was not even 8 weeks. The second visit to the vet she weighted 670g. She is otherwise very playful and happy. She eats her bland f...

Hello all, This is my first post in this forum. I'm in need of your help and knowledge. I adopted Kitty 12 days ago. The day after she was with us, she started to go in diarrhoea. And since then she hasn't stopped. Took her to the vet and was given a dewormer and some paste to soothe her gut. That w...
