Hi guys, I'll be getting a cat from my cousin (she's a vet) this Saturday. From what my mum told me, the cat is mixed breed of Persian and local. That's all I know for now.

I am a first time owner and since pets need to taken care of carefully, I want to know as much as possible before getting the cat. I've been reading around but would like to hear some human's advices as well on what should I prepare before this coming Saturday.

Thanks!

Hi....

Its normal for a kitten to be mewing.... as it misses its mum and siblings.
The previous owner should have waited until the kitten is 3 months old before letting it go to you.
The kitten is lonely therefore it will keep mewing.....
It will keep doing this for about 3 to 4 days until its used to your home....
In the meantime put some cotton wool in your ears to block out the mewing sound tongue.gif (just kidding)

While milk might seem like a natural choice for your cat, the truth is that cow’s milk offers no nutritional value for cats, and it can cause digestive problems in many. The reason is that most cats develop intolerance to lactose shortly after they are weaned. This means that they are unable to digest the sugars that occur naturally in milk. This causes problems that include diarrhea and other unpleasant digestive problems.

Some people think that cats need to have milk in order to get all the necessary nutrients. This is not true. In fact, cow’s milk does nothing to meet a cat’s nutritional needs. If a cat was fed only milk, it would not be able to survive. Feral cats provide proof that cats do not need milk to be healthy, as wild cats do not usually have the opportunity to drink cow’s milk.

As long as your cat is eating a high quality food, and has access to clean fresh water, she is getting all that she needs. Milk alone is not a sufficient diet for any cat, and should never be given in place of food OR in place of water. Replacing a cat’s food or water with milk can cause your cat to become malnourished.

Many cats do seem to enjoy milk, and this causes a dilemma for many cat owners who love to give their cat treats that they enjoy. While most cats are lactose intolerant, some are not. For these cats, milk as an occasional treat is fine. The only way to know how your cat will react to milk is to feed her some. If she does not develop diarrhea then it is safe to assume that she is not lactose intolerant, and you can continue to give her the treat she loves. Again, milk should never be given in place of food, but as a treat.

If your cat IS lactose intolerant, but still seems to crave a bowl of milk now and then, there is a way to satisfy her without upsetting her digestive system. Milk substitute that is specially formulated for cats is sold in most pet food stores. Like regular milk, it should only be given as a treat and not as a replacement for meals. Even if you feed this "cats milk" on a regular basis, a high quality cat food and fresh water should always be available. Another option for lactose intolerant cats is to give lactose-free milk. This milk is available in the same aisle as regular milk in most grocery stores.

Kittens, unlike full grown cats, DO need milk, but the milk they need is their mother’s. The mother’s milk is full of all the fat, protein and antibodies that a kitten needs to grow and survive. Until a kitten is weaned, approximately four weeks after birth, a kitten should have only milk. NEVER give a kitten cow’s milk. Obviously, the ideal milk is that from the kitten’s mother. If this is not possible due the kitten being abandoned or orphaned, you will need to feed a substitute that should be available at your local pet store. The kitten will need to be fed this milk substitute several times a day. While the pet store personnel can probably answer most of your questions about caring for abandoned kitten, you should consult a veterinarian to be sure that the kitten is getting exactly what it needs.

The bottom line is that milk is not necessary for a cat, but as long as she seems able to tolerate it, an occasional bowl isn’t going to hurt.

Usually when a cat is pasing blood in their stools it is either :-

1) Having hard stools (due to lack of water)

2) Having viral instentine problem which needs immediate vet attention.

Please visit Dr. Teo at Pandan Indah who is opened until 7.00 pm from Tuesday to Sundays. His clinic is just opposite the Pandan indah police station.

Hi there Easyzuddin,

Stress in any living creature can weaken their immune system, making them more vulnerable to infection and disease. If cats become so stressed that they stop eating, this can have serious consequences. because prolonged fasting results in liver damage.

Here is five things that might stress up your cat :-

A new family member is really stressful for cats, no matter if it is a newborn baby, another cat or a person who is moving in to live with the family.

Holidays are also very stressful events for cats. Felines are animals that enjoy quiet and calm environments and if people like having parties during their holiday, their pet may get really stressed. Parties are associated with many people, loud music and noise - all these things are very stressful for cats. Have you ever notices that your cat hides somewhere when you have a party? You can help your pet by providing a hidden place of its own where can hide away from the noise without anyone bothering it.

Mobbing into a new home is also very stressful for the cat because moving means new environment for your cat, and cats don't like this. Most cats are really scared to have a new home. You can comfort your per by bringing its litter box, toys and bed from the old home.

Your beloved "family member" may be stressed by a change in the routine. If your routine changes somehow, the cat's routine will change, too. It sounds amazing, but changing your job can be very stressful for your pet.

If you have started working after a long time spent at home, your cat may be seriously stressed. You can try dangling your keys before you leave home and the pet will get used that you are getting ready to leave. Your pet will soon get used to the fact that you will leave your home every morning.

This kind of pet owners know that their pets love looking out of the window but this may also stress the cat. For example, in a strange cat passes by and marks the territory, this can be stressful for your cat because she can't get to the other cat. This situation can cause both stress and anger.

They are wonderful pets but they need attention, just like people. So make sure you pay enough attention to your cat to avoid stress and behavior issues in your beloved cat.

Personally, I don't your cat can die from being stressed unless they stop eating then they will get weak (refer to Paragraph 1).
