Holiday Cat Tip 2: I Couldn't Eat Another Bite!

Who can miss all the special food and cooking around the holidays. This may tempt you and your kitty! Unfortunately this can be bad for both of you! Cats can get Salmonella from undercooked or raw meats and fish. Bones from turkey and poultry can get lodged in a cat's throat, causing him/her to choke. Such bones can also break and if swallowed could puncture kitty's stomach. Cats with sensitive stomachs can become ill and vomit from eating too many sweets, snacks, meats or a variety of everything! Onions, which contain Disulfides - a compound that can damage red blood cells in cats, are also dangerous to cats. And remember that chocolate is toxic to cats. So always keep chocolate out of reach of your furry little pal!

Cat Tip 8: Could Your Cat's Vomiting Be More Than Just Hairballs?
We've all commented on how cute our cats are when they clean themselves. Cats spend a good portion of their day grooming themselves; this involves licking their fur and bodies to rid their coat of dirt and loose hair. When a cat grooms ingested hair passes through the gastrointestinal tract. These hairballs are normally passed in the feces or by 'coughing up a hairball'. For the most part we accept this infrequent vomiting as a normal part of feline life. If your cat seems to be vomiting frequently or persistently she may have something more than just a hairball. Other illnesses which cause vomiting are often mistaken for a hairball problem. When a cat vomits, any hair which is already in the stomach will be expunged. This sometimes leads owners to think the vomiting is *just* from a hairball. If your cat seems to be vomiting a little too often or if you are giving your cat hairball medications/foods and they don't seem to be working, you may want to consult your vet.

Holiday Cat Tip 5: The Glow of a Warm Fire!

Candles and fireplaces can be dangerous to your cat and your home. Your cat may think the moving flame of a candle or fireplace is an intriguing toy to sniff, investigate, and bap. However a curious cat can become the victim of singed whiskers and fur, a burnt paw, or worse. And your house can be in danger if your cat knocks the candle over. Try to keep any open flame out of reach of kitty, always keep fireplace screens shut, and never leave a candle unattended!
