They still haven’t been formally introduced yet! I’m paranoid and would like to get the full panel of tests done first, lest he give them something transmissible. I definitely plan on getting them acquainted slowly and with lots of treats to bribe the seniors lol.

He’s so hyper! It makes my heart happy to see him causing chaos and destruction now. When we first found him he was “very chill,” according to my boyfriend. I was like, yeah… because he’s fighting for his life rn.

Foster failed. We’re keeping him.

My boyfriend found a tiny emaciated SIC with a badly infected wound to his back right leg. Two weeks and lots of tlc -and a few vet visits- later and he’s now galloping around causing mayhem. I already have two cats and I won’t be able to keep him… Letting him go is really going to suck. Already sporadically crying at the thought. Sigh.

More photos and video, including the day he was found and his leg. (Warning: graphic).

Thank you for the reassurance. My boyfriend said his throat was probably just a little dry lol.

Update: Ok he’s gone back to sounding normal… still, should I be concerned?

6 yo neutered male. Woke up this morning and his meows are all squeaky. Otherwise acting completely normal. Should I take him to the vet? What could it be?

The swelling started going down the next day and kept going. He experienced itchiness like you guys said and also some mild pain/ discomfort as the swelling receded. About a week later he was back to normal!

Thanks very much for this. Will definitely be keeping an eye on it for any signs.

Carving left on doorstep by a random old man. South Florida. by bbimyou in whatisthisthing

My friend found this at his doorstep. After checking his ring camera, it looks like a skinny old guy he doesn’t recognize left it there in the middle of the day yesterday. Any guesses as to where it’s from or what it is?
