LOL...we are now on the morning of the fifth day since Max's return from his 5 day journey. You know what? He's still sleeping! I know he's healthy, because when he gets up to eat, he's just fine. His appetite is great, drinking water, etc. He even stares out the sliding glass doors while...

I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who took the time to consider my situation with Milo. Thanks to those of you who offered some sound advice, and a special thanks to those of you who offered support and concern. It looks like I'll probably end up going ahead with the surgery...

Poor baby. Kudos to you for being right on top of it! Have you checked the internet. This site is fantastic, but there are some other sites that are authored by vets. While they issue the disclaimer of not using their comments as diagnoses, they are able to go all over the map with...

Hi guys. A friend referred me to this site, so I looked around and figured I'd be at home with those folks who don't think it's insane to own six cats. I live in NY, married, two adult kids (21 & 23), and I have to admit, it's the 23 year old daughter who keeps luring the furballs into the...
