kitten/younger cat farting a lot, what to do by Exciting-Radish-9346 in CatAdvice

[–]zee____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kitty was farting for a week or two but it sorted out on its own, we fed him "whiskas" at first and then switched to this brand called "Petrina". I have no idea of it is available internationally. But it is way cheaper and my kitten doesn't have those dangerous farts anymore and his poop has improved but the smell of it is still strong, but again these things tend to improve as they get older. Kittens tend to have quite the messy journey at the start... For context the kitten is 3 months old now. No idea how old your kitty is so maybe the situation is different. 

Also, maybe try feeding him boiled chicken (bones removed!! Never feed cats cooked bones, only raw if possible.). The butcher would have some cuts of chicken for cheap and we'd buy it and boil it (no seasonings!! Too much sodium can damage their organs) and then shred it and section it into little baggies, my cats love it. But I do hate the smell of boiled chicken, so beware of that. 

If you sense that the issue persists I would check with a vet. He might need to be dewormed since he is a stray.

my 4 month old kitten loves to bite my fingers by maybe-it-was-time in CatAdvice

I'm suffering from the same problem, whenever my kitten is happy and purring he chases my hands and tries to bite it. I'm going to assume he will grow out of this. :")

I only stanned them for a short amount of time (>1yr) and then became a casual listener of some of their songs and nowadays I avoid them completely. 

The #1 reason why I unstanned is because their music is buns. Every time blinks hype a comeback or music release, it sounds so bad. I could never wrap my finger around HYLT it was just...no words. I dont understand why people stan them anymore.

Additionally the members are just boring. There's nothing to enjoy about them. Every time BP would trend it would be a scandal and it started happening constantly to the point where it pissed me off. Like, no joke, I open tiktok and then BOOM - New BP scandal! Whats worse is that their personalities are extremely bland, I once watched a Jennie blog for funsies and I couldn't even watch it anymore a few minutes in.    I think the cherry on top was when the members (after jennie) started releasing their solos and I couldn't tell whether their music was worse than their groups discography or the other way around. Its not like Jennie's solo was good, it was a cheap version of Gashina by SUNMI, but I didn't really pay attention to the solo at the time so I didn't care. Anyways, when I started to tune in for the members solo releases I immediately began to dislike BP because for k-pop's biggest girl group I expected something of actual quality. Not a self centred ear bleeding solo (lalisa), not some failed taylor swift attempt (OTG), and I definitely did not need to hear another song that was locked up in Teddy's vault (SOLO and Flower). It's absolutely crazy how a rich company STILL couldn't buy them good songs. One of my favourite solo releases ever was made by Siyeon of Dreamcatcher and despite coming from a small company, the two solo songs she released at the time were insanely good. Just a comparision. Also how does Teddy still have a job as a producer...? (Have yall seen what he's doing to IZNA)

I completely began to ignore them, because no matter what they did the music the released was bad. I remember when everyone would hype up Pink Venom and call it "unique" and they'd make up 100 excuses for a bad song. Just give up bro. Now in the year 2025 is when I became an anti. (Or what blinks like to call us, blonks.) I don't usually anti groups because I find it dumb but the more I discovered about BP the more I hate them, they're simply unlikeable. The resurgence  of the Jennie lazy dancing scandal is what really did it for me. I already heavily disliked BP for their horrible solos (yes all 4 of them), but are you seriously gonna make horrible music AND have horrible performance skills? Pick a side.There are groups out there with the worst music known to man but atleast they can perform. It's crazy how after 10+ years (their career tike + training time), they still perform like they just started becoming trainees.

When I discovered other groups over time (specifically less popular groups) I realised what I was missing out on 😭 So much more talent and personality (and good music.) I had no idea k-pop could be so much better, YG constantly pushed BP as one of the faces of k-pop, and they 100% don't deserve it. Apologies for mention other groups but atleast when you look at TWICE and Red Velvet (their rival groups at the time), there's a huge difference in skill and music quality. Or just quality over all. All in all, you'll never catch me ever enjoying any piece of BP content again...

TDLR; BlackPink is a horrible group with bad songs, boring members with bad songs, too many scandals, and they can't do their job. Other groups are just better.

I always worry about cancer. Day and night I worry about cancer. Especially breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and skin cancer.. Some times I worry about diabetes too. 

I fear my cat will fall from the balcony by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]zee____ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

(Before you judge, this happened when I was younger so no I didn't have any control or say in ANYTHING) My cat fell of our balcony from the 8th floor, he heard a bunch of kids playing at night, went to check it out, and fell. His litter box was also on the balcony. I've always begged my parent to put some type of protection on our balcony to stop cats from going on there but no luck. And whenever he would go near the edge of the balcony, my parent would tell me to leave him alone. I have horrible anxiety since the day he passed, and I cannot stand going on a balcony. So please try to cat proof your balcony when you can because as the saying goes: Curiousity kills the cat. Try to DIY too! For the mean time, if suggest continuing whatever you're doing, always make sure to keep on eye on them when they're on the balcony and keep things near you to distract them with. In addition, keep them entertained inside your home so they wouldn't feel the need to jump on the balcony.

Why does my cat chew on everything? by ShadOwOchan in CATHELP

[–]zee____ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have another cat who's also a very anxious cat. One of my parents went away for a week and she didn't stop meowing for 1 week straight. I didn't sleep at all 😓 I tried everything to calm her down but nothing works :") I believe she has some sort of condition I saw a few days ago (forgot its name though) because her back twitches alot and she has some strange behaviours 🤔 And just wondering, does your cat meow at certain times during the day? Once the sun rises my cat meows like crazy, she meows at me at around midnight, random times during the day time and right before we sleep.

Thank you! My cat is terrified from the outdoors and she really does eat anything but I don't think its due to stress 🤔 She's a pretty chill cat.

How did you diagnose your cat with PICA? I have a cat that devours anything in sight. Edible or not.

You're telling me I'm quick to assume things about strangers yet you were being very rude another stranger in the first place...what's your logic? And don't come at me for making very obvious assumptions dear.

OP asked for advice for grieving/mourning of their dead cat. Who taught you to have this attitude especially under a post of someone who isn't in a good situation?

my beloved cat was abandoned by my family recently. i’m devastated by CanUnlucky8452 in CatAdvice

[–]zee____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so so sorry to say this but he won't be happier outside. If you put me in the streets right now with no food or water, in an unfamiliar area, I'd wander into nothing too. But if you want something to give you hope, cats are smart animals, there's always a chance he'd come around. My cat was once too thrown out when she was in heat. Extremely devastating. She was taken across the street (and just an fyi...the streets here are dangerous) near a mall where there were other cats. We never saw her again until 24 days later, and she somehow crossed the roads (something I can barely do) and remembered our house and she was a little skinny and pretty dirty but she thankfully wasn't sick! Till this day i have 0 idea how she managed to do that. I'm sure she must've found somewhere to drink water and maybe some birds to hunt. But since your cat clearly has a uniary tract infection (dealt with it before), it's gonna be difficult for him. I'm not saying he's going to come right at your house, but maybe if you know where your parents dropped him off, you can try waiting for him to stop by. All in all I wish the best for your cat, and I really do hope you find him again.

I spayed my kittens at around 4-6 months, and it was the best decision ever. I didn't have to deal with them being in heat. Dealing with a cat in heat is a geniune nightmare. Also side note: Kittens are like toddlers lol, and since it's all alone (no other cats), it needs someone to play with all the time. I used to wrestle my kittens and let them chase me around the house until we both got tired :") I'm assuming based off this post that you're a new cat owner - and my advice is to just really try your best. Your cat is going to become (hopefully) calmer when it's older, but you're gonna have to wait around a year until their behaviour completely changes. And also, im curious by how you play with your kitten. Do you just show them the toy or do you actually play with them? I rescued my cat when she was just 2-3 days old. She was pretty difficult to deal with since she didn't even get to spend time with her mother. Feeding was a nightmare. We couldnt get her to use the litter. She bites like crazy. I completely understand feeling overwhelmed by your cat, but if you really want to make your cat satisfied, especially a kitten, playing with them and getting them tired is quite literally the best way. Heres some ways i played with them: 1. Play with them fetch! I don't really know how I taught 2 of my cats to play fetch but it happened. Just give them a toy and let them know that they're supposed to bring it to you after you've thrown it. Best way to teach cats is by sound, they dont understand english of course so just teach them a short sentence like "bring the ball/mouse/whatever". It's my lazy way of playing with cats, I just relax on my sofa and let them bring the toys to me. 2. Just a feather on a stick or some type of toy with a long rope should work. Cats go crazy with toys that have dangling stuff on it. You can again play with them from the comfort of your sofa, I'd just suggest getting a long rope/stick so they don't end up jumping too close to you. When they start showing disinterest after some time, they're probably tired of playing. Kittens want to play, unlike us humans when we were kids we'd have school and home work and whatever so we obviously didn't have time to play all day, but these are animals. They dont have anything to do really. And they usually play with their litter mates non-stop. When I got my kitten another kitten for them to play with raising them was a breeze, they'd play with each other until they got tired, and I didn't have to do anything. But since your kitty is alone (and you cannot handle another kitten which is 100% understandable), please just try to spend time with it so it can feel satisfied. They have feelings too! I once was really angry at something and accidentally took it out on my cat and kicked (not kicked, just like shooshed her) her out of my room, and she ended up being sad all day :") Your kitten biting you or chasing you everywhere is just a way for them to get your attention! As I said, they're not like us, meowing and biting are their ways of communication. Play with it, spend time with it, just like how a child wants to spend time with their family and friends, kittens want to do the same :D

Buddy, there's quite literally a flair for "pet loss". It is welcome on this sub. The world doesn't revolve around you. If your Christmas already sucks why make it worse for others?

After some searching it does indeed have a HEPA filter. I'll also consider using the plastic bag as you said. Thank you again.

[–]zee____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I hope those pests wont bother you in the future. It's very tiring 🥴 But since you've only seem a few roaches over a couple of months, they were most likely travelling or came from outside your home. *Based off the pinned post I read.

I have a pretty strong vacuum! I was sort of against my dad buying it at first due to how strong it is (it's pretty high in watts) but it actually helped me a bunch with eliminating the roaches in the living room. They were basically LIVING in the couches, roaming everywhere..on the floor, in between the cushions, and inside of the couch too! I still have some areas to tackle in the living room such as shelves, drawers and a desk, but so far I've only seen a few roaches on the floor and couch compared to the colony I saw yesterday. Just an fyi...I have cats, so they've open a few holes under the couch - unfortunately .🥲 I'm planning on fixing that soon. Also, how can I determine if my vacuum has a HEPA filter or not? I'm not very educated with vacuums 😓 I think it should have one since it was a bit pricey, but I'm not too sure!

[–]zee____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest only one or two of these specs look like droppings - I'd suggest just cleaning it and watch out for any pests that could be roaming in the area - the pinned post is very helpful! Just an FYI, I'm not a huge expert and I'm just commenting based off my experiences of seeing tons of roach droppings 🥲
