Should I be concerned about the dots on my cat's nose, or am I overanalyzing?

Why is he so weird..

This is stapler..he got out of his harness today only to run over and smell fallen pines off a pine tree. My only question is WHY DIDNT HE RUN AWAY. He was so mad at me (he’s still harness training) growling and hissing, and he didn’t run away in teenage angst? He hasn’t even gone through an emo phase yet. Also can I get some links to some overhead cat harnesses he prefers those ones and he grew out of his old one.

Aggressive Cat I Don’t Know what to Do

My cat (3M, tuxedo) recently moved into an apartment with two roommates and another cat. Everything was okay for the first few weeks, but then he started getting really aggressive. He seriously bites someone at least once a week and it’s only my roommates. I took him to a vet and his blood and urine work came back perfect. I got him off Craigslist in 2020– i was told he was 9 weeks old (and a girl) but when I took him to the vet, they told me he was in fact a 5 week old boy. He grew up in college with me so he is used to being around people— in fact, he loves being around people and will yell when he’s left alone. He seemingly attacks out of nowhere. One minute he is calm and cute and the next he just violently attacks. It has become a very serious issue and it’s getting to the point where I feel like the only solution is to put him up for adoption. He has bit one roommate so bad sepsis started to set it, and he keeps seriously biting my other roommate. The only person he doesn’t bite is me. We’ve tried Feliway, keeping him separated from the other cat (he like to yowl outside her door, which is causing her to urinate all over the room). I really need advice. I love him to death but I really don’t think i’m equipped to deal with him. i can’t afford intensive behavioral therapy as i’m saving for law school. I’ve owned cats before and they’ve never had problems like this. i don’t want to give him up as i made a commitment when i adopted him, but that’s looking like my only option. any and all advice is greatly appreciated.

Cat Keeps Meowing

In the last couple of months my 3-year-old cat Maggie has become increasingly vocal throughout the day. She’ll just sit and meow at nothing for several minutes, and when I approach her to see what’s going on she trills and rubs against my legs, or will lead me to the areas where we keep her food or toys. I know this might just be her being bored, or wanting food or attention, but the fact that this started relatively recently has me concerned. She’s eating, drinking, playing, and using the litter box just fine!

Bloated belly

Our orange buddy has a bloated belly. We already know he has a strong positive for cat scratch fever which we are treating with antibiotics and a mean overbite which he is getting surgery for next week. He seems to be less playful lately but that may be my wife and I’s paranoia over his health. Any idea if this could be a symptom of the antibiotics or should we be more concerned.

My cat won’t stop chewing and then swallowing strings.

This is my Manx cat, Luna. She had always chewed my hair to the point she cuts through it. She has a pattern where she loves chewing through anything with the texture of bathing suit string, elastics on pants, straps on shirts and dresses. I keep them all hidden but she has literally opened my dresser drawers to open things and chew on them. She has had more than one surgery and it makes me feel like the worst pet parent. Is there anything I can do that would make her actually stop chewing or is it just keeping everything hidden and hoping she doesn’t find her way in it?

My kitty queen is stealing my hair?

Okay I know it sounds weird but my beloved queen of my heart has started to Mat/Pulling out my hair while I’m sleeping. She’s slept on my head for the last 16 years and never done this before. Cleanish bill of health from vet aside from being ancient (she’s 21). Is she going senile? Is she building a birds nest? Is she trying to tell me something ? I don’t want to break her heart by exiling her from my pillow but I also don’t want to have little baby hairs from her pulling it out and also detangling it is a pain in the morning. If I put it in a ponytail she gets mad and rips it out strand by strand. Help!

peeing outside the litter box?

* I’ve taken him to the vet twice, both times tests were ran and they told me it was purely behavioral. * When i first got Romeo he would pee in the litter box, but poop in the wrong places. after a while, he started pooping in the box but not peeing in it. (if he goes to poop, he will also pee at the same time in the litter box) each time he has an accident, i clean it up immediately and throughly with a carpet cleaning vacuum and an enzymatic cleaner. he chooses a new spot occasionally. I scoop the litter boxes three times a day, we have five of them for our four cats and they are placed all around, in both hidden and more open places. the litter we use is tidycats free&clean lightweight. also worth noting: Romeo is five and a rescue kitty from a situation i know almost nothing about, other than there were dogs that he was terrified of. when i adopted him, his file didn’t say anything similar to what i’m experiencing. he is my little baby and i’m genuinely willing to clean up cat pee every morning for the rest of his life, but ideally i wouldn’t like to. please offer any suggestions!!

Cats right eye is bigger than left, is this bad?

He had just woken up from a nap if that helps at all, he went right back to sleep.

Can you please clarify if this is dirt or ticks/parasites and what I should do with it? thanks!

Resident cat and new kitten need help!

I have a 14 year old resident cat who’s lovely, affectionate and wonderful with humans but really not good with other animals, especially cats. We have a new kitten who’s around 13 weeks and we’ve had her for a little over a month. We’ve been using the tried and tested method of having them completely separate, kitten in home base, getting used to each other’s smells and sounds first, then a partial viewing through the gap in the door, and now we’re feeding them like this (pics attached). My cat is still hissing and growling as she’s still eating. Kitten is fine with the cat. I was just feeding them and the kitten went to go through the bars of the baby gate as she’s realised that she fits, and my cat went mad and swiped at her and made allll the sounds. Kitten ran away and hid obviously. I know it’s only been a month, but I’m not really seeing much improvement other than she knows she has to come to the top or the stairs for her food, and that she’s eating it now whereas she sort of went on food strike initially. Is there anything else I can do to get resident cat more comfortable and less territorial? I just want them to get along so I can love them both together and they can both have a companion! 🥺
