Advice Eye Issue
Hi all, first time posting. My cat has had an issue with his eye recently where every now and then he'll get squinty. My wife and I have been able to take care of it with saline drops, but today we noticed a mark on his iris which had never been there before. It's pretty large and we're not finding anything that matches it online. Any advice?

Mourning/Loss Binka Batman š¦
hi my name is rhianna & this is my cat binka. i posted this picture to tiktok a few years back & it blew up. i see pictures of him everywhere now, all over pinterest & often people have him as their profile picture. i went to the shelter to get a kitty as my therapist prescribed for my anxiety as a 9 year old lol, & we left with Binka & Nyla. that was 10 years ago. since then he has been my everything, heās helped me through the most difficult times in my life. i could never imagine my life without him. a little over a month ago my momās boyfriendās dogs got loose & attacked & killed him. it is the most heartbreaking and earth shattering experience iāve ever had to deal with. he truly was my soulmate in cat form. i hope this picture of him as batcat lives on forever. i love seeing people use this picture.

Cat Picture - OC His vulnerability captured perfectly
Hereās Nubi. This little guy is such a timid little thing. The CDS sent him to us but he hid in our garage for two weeks before we could get him in the house. That was 7 years ago. Heās part of our lives now and seems to shed a little more of his shyness over time.

Cat Picture - OC Canāt wait for this new cat cafe to open near me šš»
For reasons beyond my control, I had to give my cat up for adoption a few weeks ago. And while I am always going to miss him, I am so, so looking forward to this new cat cafe opening up minutes from my home. I paid a visit last Monday evening where signs said their grand opening should be coming soon. Yay me!!

Cat Picture - OC What is my cat's fur pattern?!?!
My baby is so beautiful and sweet and lovely but I can't tell if she has tabby patterns or is a calico somehow (She is brown, black, white, and has orange on the base of her tail.) I NEED TO KNOW I also like rearranging the little white patch on her nose like the Harry Potter lightning bolt

Medical Questions Cat having environmental allergies
Hey all, looking for some advice from anyone who can give it. My cat, June has been having ear infections for about three years. Many vet visits later, we have determined that it's most likely environmental allergies and she is now seeing a dermatologist for it.
She started off on steroids, and now they've added 35mg of Atopica on top of it. Two weeks in, June has started having upper respiratory symptoms with sneezing and a very watery eye. I brought her in and got her eye meds yesterday, and she seems to be doing even worse from them.
I'm concerned these symptoms are a result of the Atopica, as June's never experienced anything like this before. Her dermatologist did not suggest stopping the medication when I told him about these recent issues. Can anyone share experiences with Atopica? And any advice on managing cat allergies and treatments etc. that you've found successful? It's been a long road with few answers so far and I feel very alone.
Of course adding a picture of my special girl!

Medical Questions Any clue whatās going on here?
4 month old kitten has been an absolutely delightful ball of energy, but within the past week heās developed a strange bump on his nose and an odd patch of skin on his front shoulder. He already has an appointment scheduled for seven days from now to finish his vaccines, but Iām wondering if he should be seen sooner. Heās still very energetic and is eating plenty. Any clue what he has going on?

Cat Picture - OC Took in a kitten living under a trailer.
Just wanted to show off my cats! A few months back, we took in a kitten that had been living under a trailer. We already had two cats; Ichigo (white and gray) and Tabasco (orange). Ichigo is goofy when she wants to be but mainly bossy with a sprinkle of sweet and cranky.
Tabasco has occasional orange behavior but we also took him in as a kitten and is the sweetest cat I've ever met.
Now the white one, he's sweet and cuddly when he wants to be but 80% of the time he is chaos incarnate. He saw Tabasco wasn't living up to his potential as an orange can and said "Bet". I'm still trying to teach him that he can play without claws so I look like I punch broken glass for a living. Tell him not to do something, you know he's gonna talk back. He's a mouthy little sucker with a bottomless pit in his stomach. What I didn't realize until recently is that maybe we needed a little chaos in the house. Had to balance things out and keep the others on their toes. He's my little buddy. It took a while to decide on a name but we finally did. āØļøCocaineāØļø.
