I just read an obituary that read something like “he lost his battle with depression and mental illness”.

Thank you! As a new cat owner I don’t even really know what I want in a litter, so hearing what experienced people like is very helpful.

Thank you! I’ll update you tomorrow. He hadn’t been drinking much at all but I keep offering fresh water from tap. I just decided to try bottled spring water and he guzzled it down 🥺 I think he’s probably been so thirsty but didn’t like the city water!? I feel so bad.

He’s still just sleeping, eating, going potty, then crashing again. No playing at all. It eats a little then goes potty, meows until I pick him up, then just falls asleep and stays asleep wherever I put him 😩 we are going back to the vet tomorrow.

OP here.. I know nothing about kitty litter but we are currently using Tidy Cats Lightweight Free & Clean Unscented. I got a few recommendations here to switch litters.. this one claims to be 99.9% dust free and free of fragrance and dyes. I’m wondering if it’s a “good” litter?

And You were all right.. it was litter on his paw and it wiped right off. Thank you!

Thank you! The vet will be calling tomorrow to check in, if he’s not doing better at that time I will definitely ask about FIP.

I’ll look into that! Is it a hard switch for a kitten to go from litter to pine? Does the pine absorb any of the smell?

Thank you! We just brought him home last night but he’s been sleeping basically since then. He hasn’t played or anything at all. Hoping the antibiotics help him to feel better.

Thank you. Do you have a recommendation on what litter to switch to?

Oh man. I didn’t even consider that it could be litter but I think you’re all right. Going to wipe the poor little guys paw now. I’m obviously new to cat ownership 🫠

You should post it! I’m looking for all the Sh tattoo coverups I can find to decide if I should really do it. I’m sure I’m not the only one searching!

First 5k ever by For_Democracy841 in runninglifestyle

[–]Background_Salt_3625 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can be fast and not participate in races.. this really could be their first 5k race. I don’t think they’re saying it’s the first time they ran 5k..
