June is Adopt A Cat Month, and here at the Schwarzman Animal Medical Center, we’re celebrating our feline friends with an entire month of blogposts devoted just to cats. Last week, we explored Pandora Syndrome. This week, we’re turning our attention to a common and concerning issue in cats: red eyes. Red eyes can result from any number of medical issues, which I will detail below.

June is Adopt A Cat Month, and here at the Schwarzman Animal Medical Center, we’re celebrating our feline friends with an entire month of blogposts devoted just to cats. June is a good month to celebrate cats because kitten season is in full swing and the photo in this blogpost shows Spunky and Rascal, brother kittens who are being fostered by friends of mine. Today’s blogpost focuses on the Pandora syndrome in cats.

As many of my readers know, I raise foster kittens. Having them is a delight, but also a responsibility. I enjoy every minute I can spend watching them cavort about in my spare room, but I know my job is to raise them to be good pets in their forever homes. I take having the kittens — right down to their toenails — very seriously. This blogpost details my approach to kitten toenail management.

June is Adopt a Shelter Cat Month and we’re highlighting our feline friends throughout the month through a series of feline-focused posts. Last week, I wrote about why your cat looks like a devil when you take her photo using a flash. This week, I am discussing the care of senior cats since there are many wonderful older cats in shelters needing a fur-ever home.

June is either Adopt a Cat Month or Adopt a Shelter Cat Month, depending on which animal welfare organization you ask. Either way, the month of June is dedicated to cats, and my weekly blogposts will be too. Today, I am going to talk about common cat diseases and how to recognize them.
