Sophie has feline distemper or panleukopinia. She is on IV's at the vets for the weekend. We will see if she is able to survive. They are working very hard to save her but I know prognosis is not good. She came down ill on Thurday and today is Saturday, so we will see. If she lives she will...

Thank you very much. It appears Sophie is now ill and we are awaiting her bloodwork tomorrow. She has diarrhea and is depressed and not eating...I am trying to keep her hydrated through the meds I was given today from the vet...I hope it keeps her going, I fear feline distemper.

I have lost two kitties now of sudden and unknown causes that were recently adopted from the SPCA. The third Sophie is now sick. She is getting depressed and has diarrhea. She has been to the vet twice and I am waiting for results for tomorrow, the other two died within 24 hours of noticable...

We only had them for two weeks but the 3 kitties I adopted from the shelter just one, Sophie survives. Last Thursday Titus an older siamese died. He had thrown up the day before but seemed otherwise healthy...he was dead the next day. Last night the 12 wk old Dublin, died even quicker. He...

I agree that Hill's is not the best especially when considering price compared to some other higher quality foods. While I do not have the same expertise with cat foods, I am very well versed in dog food and Hill's normally gets poor ratings compared to other premium foods. Also with my dogs...

Thanks for the help. The quarentined kitties have to be confined to the garage together, I don't really have a way to keep them seperate from eachother though, I don't want any inside too much bc I don't want the dogs getting the ear mites. Sophie is sneezing a bit more today, I'm pretty sure...

Thank you! Today I was able to bring home two of the three kitties I adopted. I bought wet and dry food today from Solid Gold but I will definately feed wet every day. After reading your advice I think I will try to feed wet daily, if not mostly. Does feeding wet food only have any adverse...

Yeah for the rescues! I just did the exact same thing, but actually I went to get two kitties and ended up with three, a large easy-going siamese mix, a 9 wk old frisky orange tabby, and a very ladylike 6 mos old snow tabby we call Sophie. The other two don't have names yet, the siamese mix...

Well the two new kitties I adopted came home today after being fixed, I actually am adopting a 3rd adult siamese mix cat bc I couldn't stand to leave him to die but that's another story. One of my new kitties (6 mos old snow tabby) we are calling Sophie came home marked positive for earmites...

How neat is that! Lucky, (and smart) dog!

I am currently looking into what to feed my new kittens. I have fed my dogs Solid Gold products and our previous cat ate their cat food dry formula. My question is, is it better to feed dry or wet or a combo of both? Also as far as brands go how does Solid Gold rate? I saw the new line of...

Tomorrow I will pick up my two rescue kitties from the local shelter. One is what they call a snow tabby who is a female about 1 yr old and an owner surrender, she's quite petite. The other is a little 9 wk old orange fellow. There was a very nice siamese mix about 2 years old I adored but...
