cat questions and answers

مرسلة بواسطة migha

How Long Is A Cat's Gestation Period


The normal gestation period for cats is between 61 and 69 days depending on the size of breed.

My Cat Has Excessive Thirst


You are right to be concerned when there is any sudden and excessive change in your pet's behavior. Your cat needs to be examined by a vet as soon as possible, as possibly reasons for these symptoms could be anything from hyperactivity of the thyroid gland or kidney failure. One of the first things your vet will do is carry out a test to determine your cat's urine's specific gravity (the urine concentration). This will help your vet on their way to a diagnosis.

Your vet may ask you to measure your cat's exact intake of water - so you could start this in advance by filling his empty water bottle with a known quantity of water and taking a note. Be prepared for your vet to want to carry out a range of tests and examinations.


Why Is My Cat Drooling


Ptyalism is the term used to describe excessive drooling. Animals might have increased salivation associated with certain stimuli, for example the smell of food, but when its onset is sudden and it persists, it is usually associated with illness or injury.

There are a whole host of possible causes why your cat might be drooling excessively. Here are just a few: Gingivitis (inflammation of the gums); Dental disease; Tongue injury; Mouth ulcer; Oral or esophageal tumor; Nausea and others.

You need to take your cat to the vet for a thorough examination, and normally this will include just the oral cavity unless this fails to find the solution. In the meantime, look out for vomiting, loss of appetite or difficulty breathing. Any of these symptoms might suggest there are complications that require immediate attention.



How do i stop my cat from brining me dead mice?

How come my cat throws up randomly on the deck? Is it because she eats too fast because it's not liek it happens every day

How come my cat spazzes out randomly? She will lie on her back and look at me while putting her arms straight and claw and declaw her paws and also she'll start rolling back and forth, is she just crazy?


Aww sounds like you've got a pretty happy energetic kitty. A cat brings their owner dead mice out of pride. They see it as their great and glorious kill and they bring it to you for approval and praise. It can be pretty gross but the cat doesn't realize that. If I were you I would just kinda suck it up and let her keep doing it. It makes the cat feel great!!

Throwing up randomly is normal, hairballs and what not. If you think she is doing it a lot more than she should, it may be her food. Not the way shes eating it but the brand. Search on the net and find out if the brand of food you are feeding her is top quality of not. Read some reviews. You could try switching her to a stomach sensitive cat food as well.

And as for the spazzing out, she just sounds happy!
