Guys, I need help....

I have 2 adorable cats (7 years old and strictly indoor). The thing is, my daughter was born this year and she is 7 months old now.

My wife suddenly changed to overprotective mode (don't allow cats to enter our bedroom our sleep on our bed). She afraid that the cat's furs will do harm to our daughter.  

Then there was an incident where her cousin's child got lungs infection due to cat furs. Because of that, my wife wants both cats to be kicked from the house.

Obviously I don't want to be parted with my cats...is there any way to avoid this?

Thinking of building Catio but I don't know the price and where to find shop that do catio.

God seriously now I hate her cousin..with passion. She allowed her infant to play with her cat (cat is indoor/outdoor) before the incident and now causing me a problem.
*
7 years indoor you mean? are they neutered?

since they have not been outdoor, they might be tempted to explore a bit, and might get into trouble.

u can still keep them by making a catio if u have enough space, u can diy. or hire a welder or carpenter.

or u can buy a huge cat cage and put them in when u are not at home.

then u can let them out when u are at home under ur supervision, so they wont get into trouble.

huge cat cage with wheels can buy easily, not a problem.

cat sleeps most of the time, so they dont mind being in a cage, they will get used to it.

it is better than to put them up for adoption.

my cat havent been coming back home for two days and counting

i'm worried if he will ever be coming back...

my cat is an outdoor cat (previously indoor but now living outdoor)
currently live in residential area..so he always roaming around the house
but now he havent came back home
usually he will be back at night or early morning

is there a way/tricks/hacks to find him?

previously when he went out, i found him roaming around neighbours street
do share some method of finding him
*
unneutered male?
normally will come back, cos lapar need to makan, if not bek for days then trouble, cos got feeder feed he tumpang makan n joly else where, or sick, or kena accident , dog car liddat..

if ur house is considered a safe refuge for the cat, n he likes it, n he not in trouble, he sure will come back. esp those with street genes tht hv strong survival skills.

Found him about year plus
Now already 2 y/o plus
Neutered this year (just as he entered 2 y/o)

yea thats it bro,

not much choice but to wish for his safety,

cos he is already 1y++ then oni got neutered,

so he is experienced outdoor roaming cat for some time already.

now u can either put him indoor,

or cage him limited time, cage night, day time let out.

if he can accept a collar, can put those safety collar that will release when pulled, with reflective stripe.

not much use the collar, jz to let ppl noe this cat got a home to go back to..

and for cars to see him better at night...

Could you recommend me a vet that can do dental services for cat in Klang Valley area?

Any ones that I should avoid, any tips regarding feline dental health, etc very much appreciated.
*
for effective dental cleaning, the cat or dog needs to go for dental scaling using ultrasonic scaler.

normally this is under GA.

u can read this 2 articles if u like.

https://www.avdc.org/dentalscaling.html

http://www.wellpets.com/anesthesia-free-vet-dentistry/

most owners overlook the need to clean their dog cat's teeth, without realising that their furkid will
slowly suffer in silence once they have periodontal disease.

almost 20y ago, i used to believe that eating kibbles will clean their teeth, until aft 5 years, i was shocked to
discover that their teeth is full of tartar..

many vets in klang valley offer ultrasonic dental scaling. u need to call up to compare the prices.
the most expensive can agak frm animal hospital pekeliling tht wan la.

u can try to watsap drLoh frm preventicare to ask.

then aft that, u need to learn n practise daily dental cleaning for ur kitty.

ofcos it will be damn hard to clean cat teeth, i have done before i know.
unless u have a docile pedigree lap cat...

if u start with small kitten, they will get used to it and accept the procedure,
but i start with a 5yo late neutered kucing kg jantan, so can imagine how hard. ..

easiest way, u dont need a brush or anything, just cut a piece of cloth from baju tee...
like those kid uniform baju skolah or jasmani tee, oso can,

wrap ur index finger with the cloth, and stick the finger into side of cat mouth and slowly rub the molars facing outside of the mouth,

then repeat using left hand on the other side.

then u can smear the ubat gigi OROZYME by rhone ma, on the teeth, one tube is about RM 39.XX now.
so next time wait till pet world expo, got offer buy more.
another brand is by virbac.

ants will eat the poo, cos still got nutrition there,

throw cat poo on the grass after few days ants will help " break it down " faster

Thanks all for the interesting discussion on spaying and fleas.. I have my inputs. Unfortunately the unspayed stray mother just delivered 5 kittens last week after weeks of wondering whether it's pregnant or not. We're taking care but eventually should give out for adoption. Any takers in Penang? It's a mix of Khao Manee and black white bobcat. Thanks basilisk for the info and I will check out the vets.

Do nursing cats eat double as she seem to purr more often for food? I assume. Previously they eat when I fed twice a day. Now it seems they need more throughout the day. Anna one of the older kitten favourite of the mum also jealous and hiss at her mom and ignore like merajuk but now ok already. Funny behaviours really and I just don't have the time now but will eventually update my blogs.
*
female kittens 6mths old or younger, can get in heat ya... it depends.. so if they are 2kg it is time to spay...

it helps if you request these groups in fb to post the " kittens for adoption " msg on their fb page/group

Hi,
My cats also have problem with fleas. I've been bitten by the fleas also.
Have put spot on and shampoo the cats but still have fleas.
*
looks like your place is having flea infestation.

first you have to read up and understand about flea life cycle.
then you will have some idea on how to control and prevent fleas.
it will save you $$$ without the need to call pest control ppl,

http://www.pet-informed-veterinary-advice-...life-cycle.html

http://www.petmd.com/dog/parasites/evr_mul...flea_life_cycle

http://fleascience.com/

Depend on the severity of the infestation, it will take time to bring it under control,

time means months, not just a few days.

Most important thing is pls do not over " bath " your cats and over dose them with pesticide!

Front line spot on Works!
You just need to understand how it works.
And some extra steps is needed to make it more effective.

The dosage is once a month, do not use other brand of poison on the cat during that period.
too much poison is always not good.

Assuming your hse is infested, meaning there are fleas in all stages everywhere,
eggs, larvae, cocoon, adults..
so to get rid of all these, takes time.

restrict your cat 100% indoor.
Give it a bath, apply spot on/spray.

U need to vacuum n clean the entire hse, esp the places that your cat likes to hang out,
if cat sleeps on ur bed, on furniture... then all those places can have eggs , cocoons, larvae..
cocoons can be dormant up to 1 year it seems, so yes.. very tough n time consuming.

( all these infos u can find online )

so imagine the amount of work that you need to do biggrin.gif
thts y some ppl keep cats strictly outdoor .. ( thts another story )

if u think pest control ppl charge alot,
the pesticide they use is always smelly.

if u want to DIY ,
u can go to hardware shop n buy these, mix n spray,
dont spray all over the floor, just along the walls n corners.
these pesticide have no odour, it can kill alot of other insects, termites, so be careful.
just like ridsect etc only, but these are more cost effective n have no smell + water based.
The active ingredient is the same for these 2, just that for these 2 labels, there is no odour.
keep it safe.

if the fleas do not bite you n other ppl at home, then u r lucky,
u can just use your cats as bait to kill all the fleas.
fleas need to be on your cats to feed.
it will take time.

back to " spot on" and other type of flea drops.

if ur cat is big, over 4 kg, it is less effective to use drops because,
you are instructed to drop the liquid behind the neck,
the poison is not able to spread to other parts of the cat effectively.

Fleas that likes to hang out around the backside, underbelly etc, wont' get in contact with the poison.
they wont get killed.

It is better to use frontline spray.
the spray poison concentration is way less than spot-on, so u need to use according to instruction.
and spray the entire body, ( minus the head ) be careful the eyes.

user posted image

wear surgical gloves, and spread the liquid all over the skin, and let it dry out.

even tho the instruction did not state this, but it is better to e-collar the cat first, and wait for several hours or
one whole day, to let it dry out, before removing the collar.

when u manage to bring it under control, then u can start explore the natural remedies to prevent fleas.

good luck thumbsup.gif

flea bite on human skin, leaves a dark spot when healed.... fair skin ppl take note...

Adding an inguiry here as well...

Looking for a 2 storey mid-size Cat Cage say around 2.5 ft wide and maybe up to 4 feet or more in height... Prefer something nice instead of the current black powder coated/painted wire frame with wire frame as platform..
Seen some nice cage in the internet with nice plastic/metal platform and colored structure. but all seem overseas...
Anywhere in Kuala Lumpur (Klang Valley - PJ, Klang ) Pet shop that would have such cage/crate and wont cost a bomb?
*
affordable cage will be those wire type and powder coated and foldable.

next up is thicker poweder coat, thicker wire, foldable,

next up is non foldable , u need to screw or bolt on the frame.

the plastic platform, so far ive seen one type, they call it " full tray " cage.

or u can diy put ur own board, mdf board, card board, plastic board.

user posted image

so far i found this seller price very competitive...

u fb " sangkar kucing murah delivery " and compare his price frm pet shops.

or mudah got one seller frm batu caves, his shop is near center point there,

his price is unbeatable really! thumbsup.gif
