    Hello HA family.

    Broken needle in a kitty's thigh

    Not sure where this problem should be posted, but here is the dilemma. At the vet clinic where I work on Mondays, there is an aggressive street cat (full grown unneutered male, age uncertain) a lady kindly rescued from the jaws of a dog bent on ripping the cat's throat open. The dog pretty much...

    Bug eating

    Not sure if this is where I should post my query, but since it involves what my kitty eats, I guess this is the right place. I live in Mexico with all my kitties (16) and doggies (4) all rescues, of course! The newest addition to my furry family is a little kitty 4 months old. Her name is...

    My ginger tabby Mac is almost two years old. He came to me via a friend desperately looking for a home for him and his brother Jack. They were both sweet little kittens and grew and thrived into playful young adult kitties. Lately though, in the last month, Mac has turned into a juvenile...

    Sneezing kitty

    Hi Dr. Jeff, as a cat mom to 17 kitties, (yes, 17) there is always someone sick it seems. My kitty Chamaco (Spanish for Little Kid) 8 years old, was treated for gingivitis last week.

    Constipated kitties

    Ten days ago, someone dumped 2 tiny unweaned kittens outside my front gate. They were cold and wet and very hungry. I had nothing in the house to even make an emergency formula for them, so I used diluted cow's milk. They survived the night. The following day, I was able to purchase a milk...

    Senior Kitty, fussy eater

    Hi there, my senior kitty, Luna (age 15) is less and less interested in food each day. She has become so fussy, all she wants to eat are crappy kitty treats and butter.

    Swollen kitty ear

    My kitty Piper (6 years of age) has been vigorously scratching her right ear. Yesterday, the ear flap (pinna) was swollen and hot to the touch.

    Sweet little kitty with seriously prolapsed colon

    Two weeks ago at the vet clinic, a lady brought in a little street cat with about 3 inches of his colon protruding from his anus. The protrusion could not be manually put back in, so the vet performed surgery to pull the colon back into the abdominal cavity and attached the colon to the...

    Panting kitty

    My kitty Andy, a neutered 4 yr old grey tabby, pants a lot. He is a nervous cat and is a real grouch with all the other cats. At the slightest provocation, he will begin to pant. I am aware that panting is a stress response but I think Andy's panting is excessive. Short of giving him Prozac...

    Sore kitty gums

    Hi Dr J, just as a follow up to our conversation earlier today, I gave Merc Sol 30C to Phaedra. I think fighting WWll might have been easier! I hope she at least got some of the remedy. She did not eat tonight. She wanted to but I expect her gums hurt too much.
