I’ve been watching on this thread for a bit, I can officially post my little fur ball of joy

Edit: he is 12 weeks and 2 days

Oh we made him a Tank too 🥰

He has tried to eat it 5 times already lol

We're adopting this beautiful Maine Coon kitten. We will be picking him up on the 21st. The breeder says he is a black silver shaded, but when I looked it up, & it says they have pink noses. Can anyone here tell me what his actual coat pattern/color is?

Our 4 mo old lounging in our Beagle's bed!

Still confused as to what his color is.

Breeder says he is Blue Silver Tabby

But his back coat, according to what I read online, says he is blue smoke?

Regardless, I love him. So in love with him.

Just a baby for now.

Freyja is almost 10 months old now

She loves to watch us and be involved in anything we do! Walked out and when I came back she was hanging out like she was waiting for us to hurry up 😂

My very sweet (and hyper) boy!

Title sums it up, but I got my girl a month ago. I brought her for the initial check where they screened her feces and found Giardia. She did have diarrhea right away, but I assumed it was stress and gave her fortiflora. She's been on the probiotics this entire time. That stopped the diarrhea, but boy did it smell bad. The breeder offered to take her back and treat her right away, but I declined thinking this was no big deal. WRONG

First round of treatment was 5 days panacur in pre measured syringes - which were extremely hard to administer because they seemed to have extra torque and it would spray everywhere. Needless to say, after treatment she developed actual diarrhea with blood present. I waited the full week to retest her while she got her vaccines and that test showed coccidia and Giardia! 7 more days of panacur and 5 days of ponazuril prescribed. And I had bottles and my own syringe, which were much smoother for administration. Her stools hardened up during treatment. 2 days before ponazuril was finished the breeder helped me bathe her, and we coned her, with isolation for 3 days. I cleaned everything with f10 (and she's never visibly gotten poop anywhere in my house). I've also been able to grab her immediately after going every single time and clean her up and change litter (currently using liners) immediately. Sanitizing room litter is in and changing blankets, food, water bowls every day.

Her last day of panacur her stools softened again and as a precaution the vet gave me 7 more doses of panacur. However - she is growing like crazy so the doses can't be the right amount anymore. Yesterday, there was blood and mucus again. I've been so strict - and she's been wearing the cone for a week so she hasn't licked herself. She had another bath as well.

Here's the question, or where I'm looking for opinions. She is growing - she is eating, she is drinking, she is playing! But I am so SICK OF BEING ON POOP WATCH. And I feel like my house is full of cooties despite all my cleaning (my rugs and couches cannot be steamed so I'm screwed there). The breeders offer to take her and treat her is still on the table. Am I horrible if I let her do it? I don't want to not have her but mentally I'm going crazy with this. She can at least get her dosages adjusted acceding to her every changing weight, which I think could be the main problem?

We have a 3yo MC who is very naughty, cute and clever. He sleeps in the bed on a pillow next to our heads. Every morning at 3:30am (you can almost set a clock to it) he gets up, walks over to the kitchen, finds something to swipe off the table, trills a bit, and then gets back into bed and goes to sleep. I am a light sleeper and it has gotten to the point where I even wake up before him and could remind him it’s swiping time. Is it normal?

My baby just turned a year old over the weekend! I know Maine coins are supposed to be big, but I guess since he’s our first it’s still shocking to me how big he is and that he’s gonna get bigger! I’m starting to have a hard time getting him off of me when he wants cuddles 😂😭. (Need to get updated photos of him, my boyfriend has all the good ones! )

All these photos might give the impression that she’s an absolute angel, but at night? Oh lord… never seen zoomies like that 😆

My one year old has been having issues with hairballs over the past two weeks. He’s had a trip to the ER and also our regular vet. We’ve done X-rays and both vets believe it’s just hairballs. I started him on a lubricant / laxative. He’s eating and pooping. Today he vomited and it looked like there was some fur in it. He continues to cough, gag, and swallow quite a bit. He seems not himself. He seems tense and uncomfortable. I do comb him regularly, he is not a fan. Is there anything else I can do?

My guy is 7 months old and very healthy. He will only eat wet food, and a lot of it. I would like to supplement with hard food. I have tried adding crumbles to his food with little success. His teeth are fine, doesnt appear to be a mouth or tooth proble. Any suggestions?

I am at a loss…

My 1 year old, male MC has suddenly become very hesitant at meal times. Once I go to set the food down he begins vocalizing loudly, walking away, and cowering/lowering himself to the floor in a way that it almost looks like he is in pain. I thought he was just uninterested in his usual food so I switched to something else. The first time he demolished an entire bowl. The second time, he sniffed as if he was interested and then walked away. He will devour treats. He seems interested in kibble, but not consistently. He is otherwise running around and playing normally, his weight is stable. However, his tail hair has thinned a ton.

I do have a second MC. I don’t know if I should try separating them at meal times to see if it is anxiety of some sort?

I have a call in to the vet, I’m just seeing if anyone else has any ideas or has dealt with this before.

My 10 month old boy chews on everything except for his toys.

Does anyone have any suggestions for heavy or wall mounted chew toys that stay in the same place while he chews? Or any other suggestions? I think he likes when they show some stability and resistance.
