hi guys..me n my wife just got a cat from adoption like 3days ago..the owner got too many, so we decide to take 1..9month male, white, with odd eye..currently having fungus..yesterday went to vet to vac, but doc ask to wait for him to fully recover before proceed with vac..

i personally have plenty of experience handling cat from birth till its end..but this is the 1st time adopting a 9month cat..so obviously he gonna have problems in adapting to new environment and i'm expecting no less than that..

he have no appetite for 1st whole day with me, but after the vet visit, i can see much improvement, less scared eyes, more curiosity, improving appetite(wet food) and so on..but he didn't pee or poo from the 1st day with us..

is it normal for new adopted cat?.and how long he can stay without berak?.

Should be normal, but just make sure get him acquainted around the house and make him smell litter box tongue.gif

currently still kept him in cage..only let him out while changing/cleaning the cage for around 1hour..maybe until his fungal gone..it's my wife 1st time keeping cat with fungal, so she quite concern about the cleanliness of the house..his litter box is inside the cage with him the whole time.

Cats clean themselves, including their paws. I'm not sure how you have "chocolate trails" on your bed.

i guess maybe the cat planning on cleaning themselves on the bed?..after doing his personal thing, straight onto bed to get comfy, and start cleaning..

just my guess..

guys..my cat really love this spot..im on the 1st floor btw..yeah we all know cat can survive high fall..but from where this cat was adopted, he has no experience in the outside world, so i keep overthinking the phrase "curiosity killed the cat" each time i see him there..we prefer to open the window for better ventilation but not with the cat lepak there.. doh.gif

For sure they can survive falling from 1st floor but not necessarily from high fall. Please close that window & don't let the cat hangout there because he out of curiosity, jump out. Down there is not good place for a cat to play. You're actually underthinking if you think your cat is fine there.

Introducing him to the outside world? With harness & leash, for sure.

my wife and i need that window to be open so the house could be better ventilated and cooler..yes..i know down there is not a good place for him as a housecat..yesterday we bring him out, but just stay in the car since he never been out of home before with leash and harness ofc..

back to the wall..i did diy some chillout place (attached for reference) for him but on the inside..and put some spiky cat mat and till now he just put his head out from inside the wall..just hopefully he put safety 1st than his curiosity..if he still going out, then i need to put plastic net just to open the window..sigh..

The alpha cat usually does not bury their poop... though one of my cats doesn't bury her poop because she's just dumb.

Thanks. A friend of mine uses the plastic ones. Says that they are more safe for cats

would recommend plastic net..its more safer for cat and human..no corrosion, no tajam-tajam edges and etc..just dont buy net with small holes, buy those type with bigger holes as possible as it would help you ventilate the space better too..

Hi all cat lovers, I need some advice...

So, 3 months ago my parents rescued a few days old kitten from a main road. The tiny kitten was seen crawling in the middle of the road all alone. They tried to ask around if theres anyone willing to foster it but no one would. So they took it home.

Long story short, me and my mom foster her til shes all grown up now. But she is starting to show some behaviour issue which i dont know how to cope with.
She is quite aggressive, she would bite my hand, climb my back, and jump everywhere. She wont even let me pet her. I have countless scars on both of my hands now.
We let her roam around the house, bought toys to play with her, but that doesnt seem to be enough. I can play with her only for awhile, after that she will start to attack me instead of the toys. Its really sad and frustrating, I love this kitten so much but everyday i will get a new scar on my hand, my back or anywhere.

What should I do?
P/s: this is not my first time fostering a kitten, but my first time facing such a kitten with behaviour problem. I didnt have any issue with my previous kittens.

Hi. I have an almost same story of cat problem. I adopt a 3weeks kitten from roadside. clean him up. now maybe 2-3month old. but the way he play is quite rough, he bites my hand (finger, back hand and anything fit into his mouth), my ears when he lingers around while im laying on the bed, bite my feet, to summarize, he will bite anything bite-able to him. my answer when he biting is just flick his ear (while hissing him) or his head when its too much. but i still cant pet him too much coz he thought i wanted to played with him and the way he play is biting the other person. even my other adult male (1.5yrs old) is lazy to play with him since he always biting. if the kitten is to much, he will bite back, and hard, then the kitten will run away for awhile before coming back to play (read: BITE) with him again and again.

so anyone else have this problem and overcome it?.

i have another problem..yesterday i rescued 3kittens..someone stupid/ignorant/(u can add your self) just throw these 2-3weeks old kitten away without their mother. how the heck they gonna survive without their mother?.chasing bird and mouse?.dumbass.

to make it short, i put them in a cage, clean them up, fed milk, and kept in a room since i have 2 others male cat. 1.5yrs and 2-3mth old kitten.

and then, the problem happen. someone been pooping on my couch yesterday. luckily i cover the couch with a comforter just incase something like this happened. but i havent sent the comforter to the dobby just yet since dont have time so i just swipe and spray with febreeze and cover it with large plastic.

today i found another poop with bonus of pee on top of the plastic.

Hi guys, I just moved into a condo with my two 7 month old kittens. I use Cats Best Oko Plus Litter and placed their litter box in a small laundry room where there is a window and ceiling fan. The litter clumping is quite good and I clean it twice a day but the smell is still quite strong.

Anyone got suggestion to reduce the smell? Any recommendations for kitty litter with high smell absorption? My wife wants to buy the Catit Smartsift litter box but I read that cats do not like enclosed litter box.
*
pine wood cat litter

i use this..RM78-RM98++ varies by petshop..
overall satisfied..fast absorption..but it not clumping together when react to water..it just become like wood dust..

no pee or poo smell..the pallet will stick to the poo, but will not cover entire surface since its in pallet form..but still the smell is minimal..

i live in a flat, litter box is outside in the loundry balcony, open air..


disclaimer: im not seller or related in any way to the seller..just using the link for pic reference.. smile.gif

hv not try pellets, so i wana ask, since the pellet will break n become like sawdust when kena urine, then do u leave it in the box ? or how do you remove it?
*
scoop with those standard scooper, and filter the dust in the plastic bag..reuse the leftover/those normal pellet..but the dust will dried up fast, not like clay type litter that will stay wet, so it is much easier to handle it when it dried, literally like sawdust..when im rushing to go out and the cat poop, i just scoop the dust to cover the poop until im coming back to clean the box properly..i clean it minimum twice or 3 times a day depends on my rajin mood..

my wife is quite sensitive with smell, since using that, she not complain much except when the cat just left his poop without covered it back.. vmad.gif

I use this kind of litter box. The wood dust will drop down to the bottom compartment. You can easily discard the wood dust this way. You also can DIY the litter box yourself.

this!..i've planned to diy something like this, but no time at all..so just manually scooping & filter it away..

Yes, there is expiry date for the medicine.
If you know of a vet that is reasonably priced, you should bring your kitten there for check up.

Involuntary discharges aren't normal, and we really can't tell what could be the problem.
My suggestion is to go see a vet asap.

noted..thx for advice..

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

but previously no ant eating the poo..it just started last week..
