I want to see a closer photo of the calico in the bottom left corner of the first pic. Looks like she’s got raccoon eye spots

Is this micro dot security

My cat has asthma. She also had a stroke around the same time we were trying to solve her asthma. Needless to say it was a stressful, stressful time. Not to mention expensive. I mean, how long has this been going on? And does that length of time coincide with a new apartment? Mold could be an issue, for sure. Fluticqsone is what ended up working for my cat, so I don’t have any med advice. But I will say when we were struggling to figure out the issue/meds that would work, they were trying to get me to pull the trigger on an airway wash, CT scan, and a whole list of other shit—totaling about $8k. But I had literally just spent $12k keeping her alive after the stroke. So, just saying. $1500 is still relatively cheap for ongoing medical issues. I hope you solve it quickly, I saw some other good advice here like the air purifier and switching litter, so you still have a lot of non-medical options.

Also food. Get them on a whole food diet (like Primal, small Batch, answers), completely eliminating kibble and lower grade wet foods that rely on fillers. Food is the best medicine, and it’s much cheaper than continuing vet visits. So that would be my best advice.

My cat does the cheek hold too! It’s so damn cute. The soft paw face grab, then she rubs herself on my chin and then grooms my beard all while purring louder than a lawnmower. All those idiots who say cats don’t care about you just don’t know cats at all. Or they’re just really shitty cat owners

Holy hell that is a lot of cats

It’s an ai picture so it’s probably a mixture of both.

Depends on your cat. My cat, I kind of cradle the back of her head, behind her ears in one hand, (think scruffing but not scruffing bc that’s not nice). With my dominant hand (the hand to the front of her, I come at her from the side), I lift her chin, open her mouth with a finger, and with my index finger push the pill to the back of her tongue.

She’s had to take a lot of pills in her life so we have it down pat. But it’s mostly about being firm but not scaring them.

Haha I mean you’d have to be veeeerrry charitable

Caught in someone’s hands, mid-air, at the same time someone snapped a photo

That cat…isn’t jumping. They’re being held for the photo

Where do they even keep a brain in that tiny head

That pink spot on her nose!

Is she a tortico?

The layout of this with that boldface type in the last frame makes me think this is he opening credits to a 70s blaxploitation film and Simon is karate chopping henchmen as those three frames slide across the screen and freeze frame to a brassy explosion in the bridge of the intro song

This is an excellent blurry closeup

I bought your cat had a very fuzzy set of buttcheeks for a second.

Their time is now. Torties rise up! Take up legs against the reign of the voids! And hold the throne for the oranges are waiting in the shadows to…probably get confused and roll over and walk away when something catches their attention.

She’s a little embarrassed she didn’t check in the mirror for peanut butter on her nose before her triumphant stand and motivational speech. But it actually had a positive effect, listeners were more open to her opinion. Maybe the peanut butter diluted or distracted from her excessive intensity.

What an interesting looking cat.

They just like the sunlight because it’s warm
