    Thank you daftcat75 for the advice. She is doing so much better now and is eating and drinking normally. It was "touch and go" for a while there.

    I have been keeping her in my bedroom and I have a gate to block off the doorway. She has wanted to go out and explore the rest of the apartment so I am letting her. She is not bothered by Flash and Wyatt but it also could be because she is still not feeling well. She is going to the Vet...

    Chloe hasn't had any issues with the mirtazapine and she is getting a pill when I bring her to the vet or when we are home I have cream to put on her ear. I refuse to pill her because she is 12 and I have never had to pill her since I have had her. I will mention the cerenia and ask the vet...

    So my vet is pretty sure Chloe has pancreatitis and gave her fluids, med for nausea, med for pain. They did an ultrasound and found that her pancreas is inflammed, gall bladder enlarged and liver shrunk. They did also take blood and test her fPLI. It came back very high and that confirmed...

    My Chloe is very sick and the vet thinks its pancreatitis. I feel like I am at the vet every day. I have to bring her back tomorrow for more fluids, pain meds and a shot to help stimulate her appetite. I think I am in shock right now. Please pray for my little girl.

    Hi, I will give you a little backstory to my situation. I have a Chloe, 12 yr old female Mainecoon and Ranger, 10 yr old Mainecoon mix. I have had Chloe since she was weeks old. I adopted Ranger at 9 months. Chloe did not do well with the introduction of Ranger and she ended up becoming very...

    Question About Diet

    Hi xcourtney3, Thank you for the information and the nutritional calculator. What does YMMV mean? Sorry but I am a newbie with these abbreviations. What do you feed your cat to help with the hairballs?

    Question About Diet

    Hi orange&white, Thank you for the reply. I am such a "worry wart" mother and I want the best for my fur babies but I also need to keep a roof over our heads. I was looking at Purina One can foods and I would like to get away from the dry all together. Is it a difficult process to get them on...

    Question About Diet

    Hello, I am currently feeding my 2 cats Royal Canin gastro fiber dry and Hills w/d wet. They are both indoor cats, Mainecoon X with long fur. The reason why they are on this diet is because they are a little overweight and having trouble passing the fur. I can no longer feed them this diet...
