hi,my cat is 1.5 years old and from about a week ago he started not to eat,and from time to time contracted his belly to vomit some whiteish substance with some some fur.
monday,I went to the vet with him and the vet adviced me to give him some medicine for fuurballs.
Things got a little bit better but since yesterday it got worst.now he has been vomiting a yellowish substance and I can't really see any fuur.
I feel like his upper part of the body is kinda hard?
he is not castrates,I am not that wealthy to go to the vet for a fucking 28 euro analisis and then end up fucking buying 7 euros in medicine prescription since I am still studying and my parent have to pay most of the bills.
can someone help me out pliz?
I love my cat :(

Sounds like liver or kidney issues. Unless you can't afford it you'll have to say goodbye to the kitty cat

Anybody else read this at first as "cat vomits and doesn't want to eat it"?
>>
>>2278112
Is there å tint of yellow in the White of his eyes? Does he drink and utinate? More or less than usual? Yellow or green-ish vomit can be signs of severe liver failure. Go to the vet NOW! The cat is most likely in severe pain.

Yes, it is possible to tame one. It is very difficult but not impossible ! When he is young (it is the same procedure as with a crow or a magpie)

My cat has a urinary tract infection and is now peeing in places that are not his litter box. He's never done this before. Since I can't be home at all times to watch him every second, what should I do to stop him from thinking he can pee on other stuff? I'm worried that he'll think he can just piss on whatever he wants when his UTI goes away.

pic unrelated (I hope)

holy shit, cats are disgusting

i hope you know that you and your house are going to smell like piss now, forever

>>2277958
This.. people can now pick you out of a crowd based solely on your stench. Congratulations.

The most logical solutions you must have a cat is to get a new one. It will be cheaper (well, free) and just about any shit cat will be better than a shit cat that pisses everywhere.

lock him in a room and when he's all better lock him out of that room for awhile and also burn your house down with you and your cat inside

Deliberately setting out to force an animal into a state of obesity is animal cruelty, and should be equally as condemned as letting an animal starve.

Take your filth somewhere else.

So a cat came into my apartment for an hour the other day when i was bringing in groceries. It was super friendly and obviously someones pet. The following day it scratched at my door all day to come inside. I gave up and let it in at night time because it was freezing out. It stayed the night. Today it came back and I guess it's staying here again. Am I stealing someones cat? I don't mean to, it's just that it's freezing outside and I don't have the heart to kick it out in the cold. Cat looks like pic related.

I don't know if someone abandoned it or if it lives in a nearby apartment. I don't understand why someone would leave their cat outside all day and night when it's bad weather. Should I make fliers?
>>
>>2277653
Don't bother. Outdoor cat owners don't give a shit and will be quick to replace their cat. If you care about it you will keep it indoors.
>>
>>2277701
We had an indoor/ outdoor cat growing up that we took great care of and she's still alive into her mid 20s today. I like my cats being able to hunt, roam and stuff and would never dream of locking them inside.

What is the name of this insect?
It's about 6mm in length and it seems to be yellow on the inside.
It's getting really annoying, these are always landing on my book when I read and I can't even blow them away. Also, they make a really loud noise when they land on a surface.
So what is it, /an/?
I live in central europe.
Also, do they breed indoors?

You sure about that? It looks like a cicada and they do make a very loud noise. They're much bigger than 6mm though.

Thanks, anon, upon further research I have determined that it's probably an ocopsis.

Thinking very hard about getting a doggo (80% adopting a shelter dog)

From what I can understand you should never negatively reinforce your dog (i.e. rubbing it's nose in its mess if it goes to the toilet inside)

Instead it looks like ignoring bad behavior (within reason) and praising good behavior (i.e. dog pees outside - lots of praise / barking/jumping dog is quiet and calm - lots of praise)

Is this right?

Yes. It takes time, but having used both dominance training (think Ceasar Milan) and positive reinforcement on my dogs, the ones taught with positive reinforcement grasped the lessons better and retained them longer. A few things to remember:

>keep training sessions short (think 5-7 minutes)
>keep your dog exercised
>stay consistent
>switch treats to keep things interesting
>>
Basically yeah. You want the dog to be eager to do the things you like, instead of afraid to do the things you don't like.
>>
>>2277584
Thanks this is very helpful

By different treats do you mean literally different food stuffs (i.e switching between dog biscuits to bits of chicken etc? I always cook large joints or portions of meat so giving my dog little bits of it for treats would be fine)

The consistent thing is another good point - I think you're entirely right

Why don't people like him?

redpill me.

Because he's terrible at his job.

The best example is probably the one with the dog who is very protective of its food. Firstly, he ignores /extremely/ obvious signs of aggression and continues to exacerbate things until - surprise! - the dog bites him, at which point he has to hit the dog to get it off him.

After that, he ends up "solving" the problem by basically harassing the dog until it stops reacting. He doesn't actually solve anything, he just got the dog to be too afraid to continue, whilst still retaining the same behavioural problem. The dog will probably snap one day and take someone's hand off.

Fuck him.
>>
he just intimidates dogs into submission

quite dangerous, really
>>
>>2277568
When you say it that way it sounds awful

I've only seen one or two episodes of his shows and all he's really done is nudge or tap dogs when something that upsets/aggravates them shows up to get their minds off it. (I don't have a dog so don't know if this actually works)

Do you have a link to the episode you're walking about - that sounds very sad.
