My momma cat and her kittens got ringworm from a farm kitten my husband brought in to save (it was starving), and now it’s turned into a disaster! The cat and 6 kittens are at the vet for treatment because I just couldn’t get it under control with cream for them, so I’ll be paying through the nose for that, but now I need to take care of the house so we don’t all get it. I am very upset! What can I do for carpet and furniture? I read to wash what you can with bleach, but I can’t do that for carpet and fabric! Will lysol spray kill the fungus???? HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP!

About a month ago my husband and I got a new puppy. She is about 8 months old and is VERY playful. Well yesterday we just got a new 7 week old kitten. And out dog wants to play with her. But she nips at her and licks her and claws at her. I know she is just wanting to play but the kitten is to little to defend herself from the big dog. I can’t really keep them apart, how can I get the dog to play nice with the kitten?

She’s a female and she’s spayed/neutered

When she was like 1 year old she started to steal my stuffed animal monkey in the middle of the night and carry it like a mom kitty would carry her kittens and hide it from me. I would find it and take it and hide it but she always found it….so I eventually gave it up to her. Now she’s 3 and a half years old and she still hhas the monkey and she still carries it around and treats it like a kitten. Why does she do this?

We got one for our 10 week old kitten at the weekend and she’s not paid any attention to it at all. It’s got a wee ball on a string attached to it and she usually loves stuff like that. How can I encourage her to use it?

What are some good pet insurance companies?

I want to get insurance for my kitten. He has a heart murmur and its going to cost about 500 bucks to get checked out. I can not imagine how much the treatment will cost.
So I am looking for something that will cover things like that. Along with medication and vet visits.

Do they just sort of know to use it, like with a litter box? Or does it take a bit more to get them comfortable with it? I’ve never used catnip with my kitten, and I’m not sure if I want to due to my not knowing much about it. If there’s away around it, I’d like to use it. :]

I was wanting to know what are some good healthy treat ideas for cats, raw meat or even cooked? i know just regular chicken meat etc, but what about something like Sardines? Any type of hearts or liver etc that is exceptionally good for a cat?
I fed my 3 month old kitten some raw chicken tonight and he loved it, my 1 1/2 year old cat..not so much, but she does like Tuna. I can’t feed them Tuna very often though.
Suggestions?
Something i can easily find at the grocery store.

I have read so many articles that say animals are contagious with ringworm for 3 weeks and some say months after starting treatment… So I had my kitten shaved and she has been dipped in lime sulfur dip 3 times. She has also been bathed with a ketoconazole shampoo recently. It has been about three weeks since she was diagnosed and received the first dip. I need a kitty sitter for the weekend and want to make sure she will be okay around other cats!

It’s Purina Whisker Lickin’s Tender Moments.

On the back it says to feed to your adult cat with love and care.

Can I still give it to my kitten of four months? Thanks.
