Hello,
It can be anything from infection, disease, trauma, self traumatization (licking the end of the tail), infection, parasites, etc. I would look for other areas of hair loss or irregular skin and talk to your vet if it worsens or persists.
Sunday, After groomed in a petshop, my cat can’t stand right, tremble when he walks and his head turn to left and can’t turn back. His appetite still good, doesn’t have trouble in peeing or pooping. Eyes roll well. I have gone to clinic performed x-ray and see 3 different vets. But no vets has the same answers. One said axis and atlas bone dyslocation, other said fracture and muscle neck inflammation and the last said otitis interna. what happened to my cat actually? Can he fully recovered?

My cat is missing fur on the tip of his tail. It almost looks like it got cut or shaved off. What could it be?

I have 2 cats and sometimes they clean each other. When they do, they face each other and cat 1 cleans cat 2’s back area near the tail, and cat 2 cleans near cat 1’s shoulder blades. In the past 6 months, cat 1 has started losing hair between his shoulder blades because cat 2 is chewing his fur while they are cleaning each other. Is there anything I can do to keep her from doing this other than making loud sounds to scare her away from him?
My 1 year old cat has been lowering her body to the ground and raising her rear while crawling around on the ground and meowing and I was wondering if this means anything. [EDIT] A few hours later I found that she had gone to the toilet on my bed, something she has never done before. She’s still meowing constantly with no breaks.
I recently adopted a 3 year old male treeing walker coonhound from my local shelter. We don’t know any history on him, but it is clear that the shelter did not work with him while he was there for several months. For the most part, he seems to be housebroke. However, whenever we leave he decides to urinate all over the house. He doesn’t do this when we are home, but we don’t let him out of our sight due to this being an issue. He also has this thing where he doesn’t want to do anything for himself. He doesn’t want to move, he doesn’t want to get up, he doesn’t come when called, he doesn’t ask to go outside, he doesn’t want treats for good behavior, he doesn’t eat a lot. It’s like he does what he wants, on his own time, when he wants. We are being patient with him, but we would really like for him to be a family oriented, trustworthy dog. We also do not want to have a dog we have to keep kenneled. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do to fix these behaviors?

Melissa Rumph Okay, I’m working on the housebreaking thing. But how do I go about teaching him how to play? Or be around people? Whenever I try he seems scared even though I’m extremely calm with him.

Melissa Rumph Also, any suggestions on how to get him to “come” when I call his name? He looks, just ignores.
What is wrong with my cat?
Why is my cat hungry and meowing for food all the time, only likes wet food when he used to eat hard, losing hair, lost weight and is very skinny, itching a lot with very little fleas?
My cat is in pain… I don’t know what happen.. but he cries, he’s lying on the ground hardly breathing, moments later he pees while lying… I couldn’t take it to vet cause of the location we are in. Please i need to save my cat, please help me.

My cat has vomited three times today – it was clear and has gotten yellow. He’s still drinking water and is active – no lethargy or soreness. Do I need to take him to the ER immediately or should I see if it continues?

Hi! My cat has a pink, goopy eye. He has had this in the past and it’s gone away within a day or two but it’s been about 4 days now. What do you think it is? Should I take him to the vet?
Cat keeps peeing/pooping in the basement; I have a 12 year old cat who has been peeing/pooping in our basement. She has done this before a while ago but stopped the habit after changing her litter. Then this past summer we took down our shed and much of its contents are currently in our garage where her litter box is. Soon after, she started refusing to use the litter box. My mother got tired of cleaning up after her and put her outside for the summer. (She is an indoor/outdoor cat)We’ve recently let her back in due to the cold weather (after 4-5 months I’d say) and us being out of town for Thanksgiving. It was easier to get someone to feed her that way if she’s in the house.At first she seemed fine and had no issue. We were more careful to clean her litter box more often. And coming back from Thanksgiving we found pee/ poo in the house again.We don’t want the litter box in the house because she is usually messy with it and there really isn’t any convenient space in the house for it. I don’t think it’s a urinary infection because she hadn’t gotten back into the habit until we tore down the shed. We aren’t going to get her checked out because it’s expensive and we are pretty positive its the stuff in the garage.I am just not sure what to do anymore to correct this. She’ll get put in the garage for the winter if she doesn’t stop this act. I think come this next summer we’ll put up a new shed but until then I’m not sure what I can do. But if this keeps up she’ll be kicked out of the house again.

Anonymous I agree – get her to the vet. Indoor/outdoor cats NEED more veterinary attention than indoor-only cats due to their exposure to the environment.
Do keep in mind, ignoring her care IS neglect, and is a crime in most states. Don’t neglect your cat’s health because it’s inconvenient.












I’m sorry to hear about your cat. This cannot be answered without an in person exam and review of the radiographs. I strongly recommend that you seek a specialists help and give her rest in a cage so she cannot hurt herself further.
I know that. But here in Indonesia, we don’t have any specialist. So idk what to do again now.
maybe you can help me to interpret these xray results? I add another xray from different position. So i hope you can help me by giving a good interpretation of my cat’s results here
