It sounds like you're juggling a lot of work with all those cats! However, if the vet who did the procedure said to start the medication tomorrow, I would recommend that you *not* give the medication tonight. It is very likely that the vet gave an injection of a similar medication already while the cats were at the hospital, that will stay in their system until tomorrow, and that's why the vet wanted the next dose given tomorrow. If you give it tonight, that could lead to an overdose of the medication in the cat's system. So, do your best to follow the instructions on the medication as directed. I hope this helps!

Personally I wouldn't put Channel through the flight for the sake of one week. If they don't get on one week is not going to make any real difference, and you would likely be at square one in the Summer. They will hopefully get on, but you will need to make sure that one or both is neutered to avoid kittens!

Hello and welcome to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Although animals do like company, they also can be very happy as single pets. If Scout seems happy, don't feel pressured to get a second cat. Scout should go to a vet as soon as you can make an appointment as he is likely behind on vaccines/worming if he hasn't had any since you got him. Neuter is recommended at 6 months of age. Otherwise just make sure you have scratching posts, litter tray, food and water. Best of luck with Scout!

You should purchase a cat carrier to safely travel with Mennu. I have a link to a few examples below. It would be best to get Mennu as familiar with the carrier as possible prior to travel to help reduce stress - leave the carrier out so she can explore it. You may even want to try feeding her in the carrier. Take her for a short trip once before leaving. A pheromone spray like Feliway could help reduce stress. Good luck! https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/category/cat/cat-containment/cat-carriers-crates-and-kennels/cat-plastic-crates

Hello, Depending on the extent of Chinnu's injuries, it may not be possible for her to deliver kittens on her own or walk again. It can take time to fully realize the extent of spinal cord damage. I recommend having her seen by her veterinarian again to ensure she is not in distress attempting to give birth. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
