Update;
I’ve been following Jackson Galaxy’s protocol and reading Dr. Jean’s article about introducing a new kitten to adult cats. My two adult cats were formerly feral. One of them is indoor-outdoor and doesn’t seem as affected by the kitten because he is preoccupied being happy outdoors...
Hello,
My 7 week old kitten swallowed a small friendship Bracelet bead. Do we need to rush to ER or can we wait for her to poop it out? She is breathing fine. He drank alot of water afterward.

Did you get a chance to ask Dr. Shoemaker and Gellmam if I should trim Junior’s nails? He is my indoor/outdoor cat. Want him to be able to protect himself out there as well. Thank you @Dr. Christina
No, the kitten and her haven’t met/seen each other yet. I am still tryin to feed on opposite side of the door. Initially, I was not going to keep the kitten so I was not trying to integrate. I started trying to integrate a few days ago. At the moment I’m feeding her Viva raw. But I was putting a...
Hello,
I discovered a bloody scab between my cats ear and eye. Could this be from her scratching? I haven’t been seeing her scratch a lot. Just once but maybe she has when I’m not looking. If she is scratching could it potentially be from fleas or from a reaction to food? I flea comb her twice...
I started scaredy cat as I have this on hand. The kitten has been in my bathroom for 2 weeks and my cat Jinxie is not wanting to go near the bathroom door when I put treats there as if she knows I’m trying to trick her to go closer. She’s making it clear she doesn’t want to meet her. I brought...
@Dr. Jean Hofve my adult cat is not happy I have kitten in the bathroom and it’s been 2 weeks. Should I give her the Jackson galaxy jealousy drops or scaredy cat? She’s scared of everything. Thank you!! Ps. The last three days she finally went near the door to sniff and investigate, and then...
Hello Dr. Jeff,
Kitten’s mom and kitten came from an alley of a big colony of ferals. I don’t know if there is distemper in this area. I will wait til 12 weeks then and space apart. I’m going to get her tested today for any feline diseases because I want to know if and when she can come out of...
Hello,
The kitten is 6 weeks old now. She was loaded with fleas and as much as I combed her I would find them on her again. The vet gave her half the dose of revolution. As much as I didn’t want to do this I felt I had to get it under control asap as I have two other pets the house. She’s...
Oh!! Aconite!! I gave her arnica an hour ago. When can I give her aconite? I left 5 drops of stress stopper in the laundry room where she’s hiding in hopes it helps her. Is it okay to give aconite after arnica and stress stopper? I hope she will trust the harness again. 🥲 thank you, @Dr. Jeff
Hello,
I had my cat on a harness and we were about to go outside when i accidentally shut the door on her tail. She was hurt and scared. I went to squat down to talk gently to her when I accidentally hit a bag that made noise and scared her to run into the apartment and under the bed. I still...
Thank you so much for this valuable information. The kitten urinated on its own one time. Then I stimulated her and I believe she urinated twice. I rescued her yesterday around noon. She has not had a bowel movement yet. I hope this is OK? it is eating some formula but more interested in the...
I think the kitten is only about two or three weeks old. It’s eyes are open and it has fur. It was very hungry and had some of the formula but did not want anymore. I offered some pure food. It was eager to eat.
I fed her and she was full of flea dust and blood. I did not see any fleas...
Need help asap. I rescued a tiny kitten that was crying since last night in a rainstorm and a shed full of garbage rumble. It was stuck. I did not see any other kittens or a mom. it was a hard decision to make to take the kitten because from my understanding once you handle a cat the mother...
Hello,
Is it necessary to trim my indoor/outdoor cat’s nails? They are very long and sharp. Not too long, just long and strong. Maybe just the tiny tips? Thank you!
