Hi, I was wondering if you had spoken to the vet about adding pure pumpkin into Tom's food? Its supposed to bulk up the stool. Please keep us updated. Sending happy thoughts your way.
im so sorry about your kitten! I really have not dealt with a broken bone on a cat before, so I'm not sure how to keep them occupied. Can the vet give you some meds to calm him down?
Hi All,
A few months after I had to put Blaze to sleep (thanks all again for your support), I went to the SPCA to rescue a cat. She is an 8 year old Manx x snowshoe. She is a sweet kitty and needless to say, I love her.
She started scooting a few days after I took her home. I took her to the...
I'm so sorry you are going through this. I had to put my 17 year old down in August. Here is the experience I went through with Blaze.
I first noticed she was walking like she was drunk. I immediately called my vet and took her in. Turns out she was in late stage 4 kidney failure. What ever the...
Hi! Sorry to hear your kitty is sick :(
Have you tried a different litter? I found World's Best to be really dusty (and not all that great in my experience). I know that sometimes the dust from litter can cause UTIs in cats.
HI! It does take some time for cats to adjust to new surroundings, and new animals. You should get a pheromone plug in (at any pet store). It really helps during stressfull times. A friend who already had a cat rescued another one. She put the new cat in a nother room with food, water, toys. I...
Thanks all. Unfortunately she crossed the bridge on monday. The vet said she didnt bounce back from being on IV all day, and had no kidney function left. He figured she wouldn't have made it till Sunday.
Thank you all again for your suggestions and support. Its people like you that renew my...
On Monday, I had to put my cat Blaze down. She was 17 and a rescue from the SPCA. Some one threw her in the dumpster as a kitten, and I adopted her at about 3 months. She had advanced kidney failure. I tried several things at the vet to keep her as long as I could. I was getting ready to take...
Hey all.
For those of you with sick pets, do you ever feel guilty you have to go to work? I would love nothing more than to stay home with my kitty, but in order to pay vet bills, I need to work (or win the lottery. I swear I'm getting close). How do you deal? When I'm at work, all I think of...
One of my favorite things to do is make soap! You can start with Melt and Pour soap. Base is already made, all you need to do is create!! Plus, everyone needs soap :)
If you are in the US, Brambleberry has amazing stuff! I'm in Canada, and always take a hit when I order from them, but they do...
Thanks Betsygee
He gave her the fluid that goes just under their skin. It was awful to see that bulge there. She is getting up and drinking every so often. I put out another bowl of water for her, and change it every few hours when I'm home. She wants to drink out of the toilet when it runs. I...
I know some cats will have their wet food if you mix some warm water in it, or serve it at body temp. Maybe try that and see if he eats? I'm sending happy thoughts your way!
