    Is it cruel keeping 15yo cat alive if I think he's dying?

    My heart goes out to you and Milo!  It sounds like you've made peace with your decision, and know that you're doing what's best for him.  I just came across your thread while waiting for test results on my 18 year old Sparky.  The vet thinks he either has hyperthyroidism or cancer, so I came...

    Cat is very angry after vet visit--been 2 days?

    Lyrajean is right.  You just need to spend time with him, talk to him in a calm, soothing voice, probably not pet him, but just sit nearby, and let him decide when he's ready to interact and explore more of the house.  It'll take some time, but it will be worth it!

    Buprenorphine long term?

    Thank you for your help. I can't wait to get him in to see what the vet says. If she thinks it will help, they'll do the first treatment that day! Mine have a few favorite toys too (out of a housefull)!  : )  Guess I can't blame them for that though, since I'm the one bringing them home... ...

    Buprenorphine long term?

    I am so sorry you and Bailey had to go through all of that!  You definitely did the right thing for her.  I'm sure those few possible months wouldn't have been good ones for her, and would have eventually led to a lot of unnecessary pain--not the kind of end that she deserved. I love my guys too...

    Buprenorphine long term?

    to Push Purr Cat Paws  I'm so sorry about your cat!  At least you did everything you could to ease her pain and suffering.     I've been giving Harvey .1 ml twice a day since Tuesday afternoon, and he's doing great!  She originally prescribed .2 ml twice a day, but they were both total zombies...

    Buprenorphine long term?

    to CATLADY VET TECH  Thanks for your advice!  I was wondering how effective laser treatment is, as it's still fairly new for pets, from what I've been reading. It's good to hear you're having good results with it!  I'd like to have that done so he doesn't need to be on pain medication (or could...
