3. That is a huge problem

He's never been to a vet really.

He is/was a feral cat when I got him.

I took him there one time and wow, it took two people to round him up into a cage.

He howled so loud the the vet was afraid of him and began spraying Feliway all over the room (which made the entire situation worse).

The vets here won't see a "new" animal as so many people have moved here recently that there aren't any taking "new" clients.

Oops ... I think I hear him in the litter box right now ... will go check!

Crippers!

Oh what to do ...

Silver is a 17 lb. tabby cat btw.

Take him to vet. SheltieLover Feb 2023 #1
