The complete resource shelf
Know what to watch for.
Changes in routine can be the first clue that a cat needs help. Record what you notice and call your veterinarian when something feels wrong.
Appetite changes matter
A cat that stops eating can become seriously ill. Seek prompt veterinary advice, especially with vomiting, lethargy or known illness.
Straining is urgent
Repeated tray visits, crying, passing little or no urine, or licking the genital area needs urgent veterinary attention.
Climb, scratch, hide and hunt
Use vertical space, scratchers, hiding places, window views and short interactive play sessions.
Check the mouth gently
Bad breath, drooling, pawing at the mouth, dropping food or eating on one side can indicate pain.
Sudden change may be medical
New aggression, hiding, restlessness or house-soiling should not be dismissed as spite or stubbornness.
Store hazards securely
Lilies, many medicines, chemicals, string and some flea products made for dogs can be extremely dangerous to cats.
Use cat-specific prevention
Ask your veterinarian about locally appropriate flea, tick and worm prevention. Never improvise with dog products.
Track trends, not just numbers
Feel for body condition and record weight changes. Unplanned loss or gain deserves veterinary discussion.
Introduce gradually
Begin with separate spaces and scent exchange. Give every cat choice, distance and their own essential resources.

When something feels wrong
Know when to call.
Cats often hide illness. Sudden breathing, appetite, toileting, movement or behaviour changes deserve attention.
Emergency: difficulty breathing, collapse, severe trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, repeated seizures, suspected poisoning or straining without passing urine need immediate veterinary help.
Open-mouth breathing or breathing difficulty
Seek emergency veterinary care immediately.
Repeated straining with little or no urine
This may be a life-threatening blockage. Do not wait.
Collapse, seizure or profound weakness
Keep your cat safe and contact an emergency veterinarian.
