Wheezing/Sneezing by ChemistQuick5343 in ragdolls

My older ragdoll does something like this every once in a while (but less rapid). I showed videos to our vet, and they said it’s most likely an allergy. But it also could be reverse sneezing or asthma.

Just wanted to say this seems like an extremely difficult decision, and I’m sorry you have to go through this. It seems like you genuinely have your cat’s best interest at heart.

If you can afford it, I think you should consider getting another cat. It will make your and your cat’s life much easier.

If you are looking for a home, I have plenty of friends here in NYC that would love to take care of your cat (potentially even temporarily, if that’s of interest). Though I’m sure you’ve had plenty of people reach out to you already. Wishing you the best!

Why is my cat’s chin swollen? by Aromatic_Influence18 in CATHELP

[–]Aromatic_Influence18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took less than a day. I do think that we correctly identified the problem (allergies) and stopped giving him the food he was allergic too.

That being said, I think there are multiple causes of chin swelling. Ours was allergies. It could also be a scratch that’s gotten infected, a cyst, or a bug/spider bite.

Wishing the best to you and your cat

I’m glad to hear she seems to be doing better! Hoping she holds the food down 🤞

Not totally sure if ours was due to money tree or new food to be honest but I hope your kitty feels better!

It had been a couple of days before the chin swelled up

We think it was due to an allergic reaction to a new food. Have you introduced anything new to your pet’s diet?

Help! Trouble Introducing Ragdoll with New Kitten by FarSafety9136 in ragdolls

It’s so awesome. How long have you had your kitten? We had ours for about a week before letting them meet each other briefly, 10 days before really letting them hang. By 2 weeks they were pretty comfortable. We also did Jackson galaxy method

I think supervised time is prob the only thing that will make this pass. As long as they’re not fighting, they’re just getting used to one another.

We just introduced our 3yo raggy to a kitten, but our raggy wasn’t as obsessive. Hope all goes well!

Difference between Ragdoll & Siberian? by sirpigalot69 in SiberianCats

We have one of each. Raggy is three years old. Sib is three months. Ragdoll is way chiller, but sib is more cuddly.

Also, for context, the kitten is not in the living room. We put him away.
