Hi, I'm having the same problem. I see the option to edit my signature, however when I click on it, it comes with a pop up that I'm not permitted to complete that option. Help?

Good morning all! Again I thank all of you for your advice and kind words! Glad to hear that some of you have some vocal kitties too and how you manage. I've thought about the ear plugs, however she doesn't wake us up in the middle of the night (thank goodness), it's just when I want to go to...

Good morning all. When I came home yesterday, expecting the absolute worst, Samus was very calm. Couldn't believe how calm she was. I haven't seen this in a very long time. As I said I ignored her when I came in the door at first so she wasn't so excited I was home. I did a lot of behavioral...

Thanks for the responses everyone. I do realize the risks of giving alternative medications than what a vet has prescribed. I had a relatively rough time with the vet we had been using. He had given out his personal phone number and, I for one may have abused that right. I contacted him a lot...

Hi everyone, I'm sorry for upsetting people regarding my method of care for Samus. No my friend is not a veterinarian however she is very well versed in cat care where I trust her advice. It was a last resort option after a few days of legitimate excessive vocalization. She has been vocal...

Hi all, I take Buspirone for anxiety myself, and had read that it has had some really good effects on their cats. I reached out to my PHD friend and she gave me the correct dosing and suggested that I try it with her. I only gave her 2.5mg versus the 5 at 9pm last night. She played for a few...

Columbine, thanks so much for your response! I should clarify a few things, the vet did diagnose her with a slight case of IBD which was part of the reason for the stomach meds. She went to the vet last year almost to the day because we went away for the weekend and she was basically stressed...

Hi all! Looking for a little insight on my one cat, Samus. I wrote a post 3 months ago in true desperation for some help for her.  Some background: Samus is two years old. We took her into our home to give our other cat, Chazz - now 3, some company. It was discovered at 4 weeks old that she...

Hi Jim,  Thanks so much for your response! Samus typically is a very active, playful cat and would get vocal for food. Two weeks ago the vocalizations began nonstop at the worst in the mornings but during the day she was very restless. While at the vet she was not vocal, ate her food etc. Upon...

Hi, I'm new here. I ran across this site over the last two weeks while trying to do some research on my one cats behaviors upon returning home from the vet and am looking for some help. I have two cats, Chazz (3yr old orange tabby) and Samus (2yr old grey tabby). Both have been pretty normal...
