I have always heard that but I don't know why they would. However, cat bites are some of the worst injuries you can have and they often get infected. Lorraine...
Lyn, I always self medicate myself for the first few days of a cat scratch or bite. And I get many of them! 1. wash with soap and water. Then dry. 2. put on...
I believe cat bites are just like dog and human bites, or any other animal. The mouth is full of germs. I had a cat bite once taking a cat, to the vet. The...
That was me that posted cats have gern infected mouths. I have read this many times...they are clean creatures by nature but harbor many germs in their...

Hi Jean, My Miss Kitty's coat thinned on her underside, back legs and tail (she's a maine coone so is usually very fluffy) when she was first diagnosed right...
Rainy - As you know Ogie is a black persian. He had thin hair, bald spots and a bare tummy when I got him, and he was really in bad shape. After I got him on...
Jean I don't think the colostrum would do it but I always think a break from meds and supplements is a good idea. I personally think that other than maybe a...
Shelly - Ogie still eats his dry food like a little pig. He's is just fussy about what wet food he eats. He's never cared much for canned food, and to get...

Lynn - Himalayans are Persians. Yes! they have the same coats. I've had three persians and two Himalayans. They all have the double coat. What I'm finding...
All I could tell you is that my vet, when she prescribed the Zithro for 8 days, said to use it for those 8 days and then "as needed," so I can assume she...
Thanks for the good wishes, Jean. Yes, I ask myself many times, how did I get into this-5 cats at the same time. And it is even worse than that; I have a...
