    Kittie Question

    As mentioned a month or so back, I picked up two new kitties. One is a Siamese, the other a minx or tiger? Not quite sure. Anyways, they are both eating the same food, and treats. However tiger kittie has some of the worst fucking gas on the planet.

    If she is full (from eating) and you pick her up. She farts and it's like mustard gas. When she wakes up from sleeping and stretches. It's like VX poison gas. Sometimes she will want some attention, climb on your chest in the office, and jams her ass in your face and let loose.....


    Is this something common with some breeds of cat? Or some kinda digestive issue? Food??

    I am thinking of taking her to the vet on a full stomach so they can catch a whiff of my complaint and grasp the magnitude of some kitten stinking up the whole fucking house. They are both getting that IAMS kitten hard stuff, as well as a half can of that IAMS kitten formula, and the only other thing in their diet is some Pounce treats as I train them.

                  That is what I am thinking. They both eat the same. Although different breeds. The one can burn the midnight oil and then some

                      I am feeding it what Animal Rescue told me to feed it (already mentioned).

                      The cat's have had three shots. I would have to look in their files as to what they were.

                        take gassy to the vet to do a quick microscope check for intestinal parasites. they will know more about gas for $40 than any of us will.

                            Well tonight she was producing enough methane to power New York.

                            So I think that $40.00 will be well spent.

                              Animal Rescue, here anyways, takes them to a vet, and they have to pass a battery of shots and tests before they can be 'adopted'. These kittens had their three whatever shots before I adopted them.

                              The Siamese was not put into the adoption program (yet) because she is not good with kids, or strangers for that matter. But I wanted a Siamese so I took her anyways. Regardless of her being anti social. I am used to Siamese cats and their attitudes. I have had 4 before.

                                  Ok.. Missed that part the first time through. Iams is a horrible food. It's full of animal by products and corn. She may have an allergy to that food. Definitely research brands and get her something good!

                                  But honestly, my money is on the worms. All kittens have them. Shots aren't de-wormer. So that'll be for like feline leukemia and rabies.

                                    well, obviously something is wrong with the cat lol

                                    this may also be a food related issue. the way to tell is to switch brands.

                                    try to get food that contains rice, not corn, wheat or gluten.

                                    it could be a microorganism, too.

                                    find out if that cat's stool is loose, pale, bloody and/or mucus-y. thats good info to have. actually, examining stool is a notable way to determine the heath status of a cat since they hide "illness" so well.

                                      No help to offer on the farting feline but re the Pounce treats, you have it backwards.

                                        Good advice. I've never had a cat who's had an issue like this.

                                        Kittie pee will be getting an appointment scheduled at the vet tomorrow. .

                                        Oh, and thanks for the tip on the cat food. They recommended the IAMS kitten, so I went with their recommendation.

                                          find out if that cat's stool is loose, pale, bloody and/or mucus-y. thats good info to have. actually, examining stool is a notable way to determine the heath status of a cat since they hide "illness" so well.
                                          Not that I like a face full of checking kittie stool, but I see it every other day when I am changing the litter.

                                          So in that regard the pinched loaves would appear to be the same for both the cats. The solution to the natural gas problem cat goes more than the other. Beyond that, their turd wafers seem to consistent more a less.

                                            one cat food i have used with great success has black sides and a dark pink center for the packaging. forgot the name of it though. i have also played around with "all natural" hard foods and those seemed to do down well also.

                                              Good advice. I'll swing through the pet store tomorrow and see if I can find some different kitten foods per the recommendations.

                                                  nah!! you gotta check it fresh and warm right when it happens! otherwise, they bury it and shit dries out in litter. blood disappears, mucus dries up, soft poo gets hard.

                                                  if the shit is real bad due to illness or infestation it will be appear later as a dry clump, pool or dried poo in small, weird shapes. in those extreme instances poo sometimes gets stuck on fur. glad to hear you're not in that boat. thats good. maybe it's just the food then. checking for microbes in poo under a lens could be a interesting test though. what the vet will do is insert a stick in the cats ass to grab some poo then they disappear into the lab for five minutes with their little poo sample... lol

                                                        you are not giving the cat milk, are you? milk is bad and produces gas.

                                                                That's strange...Especially if you're feeding them kitten food. Kitten food is very rich, so I would try NOT feeding them the canned food for a day or so and see if it helps.

                                                                How often do they eat?

                                                                      How often do they eat?

Never been a reason for it that the vet can find. 5 of them are related and two are shelter kitties that I took when my son and daughter-in-law split for 8 months. When they got back together the kitties were already a part of the horde here and beside they had a baby on the way. It's one of those shelter kitties, Max, that is the gassy one. Can't blame it on the food as they all eat the same stuff.

                                                                            Ended up that he just has a bit more to release than the others.

He looks and acts like a female cat, but the tiny penis under his belly throws everyone off . Sometimes I think if there was such a thing as shemale cats, my cat would be one.

                                                                                  But honestly, my money is on the worms. All kittens have them. Shots aren't de-wormer. So that'll be for like feline leukemia and rabies.
                                                                                  Years ago I had a kitty that I fed nothing but IAMS. At 5 yrs old she was still the size of a kitten. My Aunt who is a CAT ONLY Vet said IAMS didn't give her the proper nutrition for her to be nourished and grow, that some of the "chicken parts" or however it's listed in the bad is actually ground up chicken feathers and gross stuff like that

                                                                                  I feel bad for ur kitty but this thread rly made me LOL.. picturing her stepping on ur chest and fating in ur face.. hehehehe

Mine was at the vets for his 2nd lot of booster injections and she said he was healthy. It might just be something your kitty suffers with, but its good that you're getting it checked out
