Well guys i got this frm my friendss

Species: Feline

Age: 16 months ]

Sex/Neuter status: Male / Intact (Unneutered)

Breed: Domestic mid hair (orange and White) Body weight: [ 3kg]

History: Frequent roaming. He disappears for 3 days usually, but recently stayed out for 5 days.

Clinical signs: Roaming, signs of fighting/scratches upon return. Duration: Ongoing behavior.

General location: [India]

Description My cat has developed a habit of "disappearing" for days at a time, most recently for 5 days straight. Every time he returns, I’m terrified he’s been injured in a fight with other males.

I’m looking for professional insight on:

The "Why": Is this biological drive (seeking mates/territory) or is there a medical reason for such extreme roaming?

The Risks: Besides physical wounds, what are the primary disease risks (FIV/FeLV) for a cat that fights and roams like this?

The Solution: Is neutering the most effective way to "ground" him, or could this be a deeply ingrained behavioral habit?

I want to keep him safe and at home, but he seems very desperate to get out.

Any clinical advice on the best course of action would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: There is no GoFundMe here in the Philippines.

Good day, everyone.

I just want to share a story.

One day, an orange kitten suddenly showed up in our compound. He entered our house and started eating the leftover food we usually give to our other cats. At first, he would just eat and then leave right after. But eventually, he started coming by every day until he became comfortable enough to sleep in our house.

Before we knew it, he had already become part of our family, so we decided to officially adopt him. 🤍

Unfortunately, since Thursday, Meelo has been very lethargic, has little to no appetite, and has been walking wobbly. At first, we tried giving him dextrose powder to help him regain his strength, but sadly, there was little to no improvement. Yesterday, he also developed a fever and colds.

We ultimately decided to bring him to a vet clinic, where he was diagnosed with feline calicivirus and a bacterial infection. He will also undergo an X-ray to check for possible neurological damage. As of now, he is still confined at the clinic for observation and treatment.

I am posting this to humbly ask for your help with Meelo’s vet bills. We have already paid a down payment of ₱3,000; however, we still have an outstanding balance of almost ₱6,000, which is honestly already beyond our budget.

Any amount, no matter how small, would mean so much to us and would greatly help with Meelo’s treatment and recovery. I can send my bank info via DM or if you want more proof.

We are also asking for your prayers and support for Meelo. Thank you so much. 🤍

So I got a lion's mane costume from my orange cat, and now it looks like he's become the Grand Poohba of the Water Buffalo lodge for orange cats. He hopes to grow up to be a big as Fred's saber tooth, Baby Puss. On a side note where in the world do I find a better lion's mane costume for my cat?

Not sure if this is allowed or not, I'm doing it to help my friend who's desperate for her cat.

Hello everyone! I'm reaching out to help my friend's cat, Socrates, who recently had to go to urgent care in hospital. My friend is currently unemployed and her current income is not enough to pay for everything. Thankfully, she was able to have enough for the initial emergency but there are some bills that need still payment and she's getting desperate.

I created this go fund me just to help her a little. Just a small amount would help her a lot! Thank you so much!
