The poor thing had legs too weak to transport its body but it was sat in front of a dish with kibbles! I can never understand why people allow their animals to become so grassly overweight. Never had any like that in my time. But I see fat owners walking fat dogs.

Are white cats, particularly blue eyed white cats, always deaf or is this an old wives' tale? - Is deafness linked only to odd-eyed white cats? - Some blue-eyed whites aren't deaf - why? There is an established link between the white coat color, blue eyes and deafness. The deafness is linked to the gene for blue-eye(s) and not to odd-eyed cats. Not all blue-eyed whites will be deaf since there are several different genes causing the same physical ...

It can be caused by infection (with bacteria such as salmonella or campylobacter), cancer or parasites, but more frequently is just associated with non-specific inflammation. In some cases the rest of the gastrointestinal tract can also be inflamed. Signs of colitis The most obvious sign of colitis is the production of small amounts of soft faeces. The cat may strain on the litter tray for some time and passing faeces can be ...

Be sure to use a non-slip mat to prevent your cat from slipping and hurting itself. When your cat is secure, gently introduce the water. This is best by use of an extendible shower head. The water should be warm, and avoid spraying the water straight at his face, ears or genitals. Wet the cat all over, talking to and massaging your cat as you go.
