Something sort of funny the vet told me when Charlie was at the vet for this problem for the third time in a year, was that I can take him to Purdue University vet hospital and get him changed into a girl! I guess something with neutering a male cat makes them get crystals. Charlie has had them...

I have a weird problem that has just started with Chester. He used to be quite stand-offish, but the last few months, he has been very very affectionate, and also will drool all over you when you pet him. You'll be petting him, then all of a sudden, you are soaked!! Anyone ever heard of this...

sending good vibes to you and Bernadette (cute kitty name)

Gosh, how can someone just want to get rid of a sweet cat like that? You couldn't pay me enough to get rid of my kitties, no matter what. But, I thinkyou should strongly encourage this woman to keep Angel, just try to remind her how little trouble the cat really is. Sounds like even though...

I have a 12 hour shift to work today. It is 1:40 and I don't get off until8. (sigh) My car needs some tires and an alignment, so I've been calling around trying to get the best deal. My kitty Chester was in bed with me when I went to sleep last night, and amazingly was still there in the...

A 1994 red Honda Civic, with a clutch that is going out

First of all, welcome tot he site. As a newbie myself, I have found it very helpful and everyone is so cool. As for the eczema, one of my kitties has a dandruff problem. The vet told me to rub a little olive oil on his coat every once in awhile. It has seemed to work. I don't know if this...

good ideas guys. I will try feeding them on opposite sides of the door and see if that works.

Need some more advice. You all are so good at it!! Since Charlie is on prescription food, he and Chester can't eat together anymore. So, when we give Charlie his food in the bathroom, we set Chester's food out in the kitchen (usual place). The problem is, he will act like he is starving for...

Thank you all for the good advice last thursday about my Charlie with the urinary tract problem. I took him on Friday for a consultation. The vet did not find significant crystals in his urine, so he did not think that surgery was necessary aat this time. I got him to eat the prescription...

I'm going to take him tomorrow for a consultation for the surgery. They want to try some antibiotics first, though. I am so worried about him, he has the saddest little meow. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get him to eat the yucky prescription food in the meantime. It smells really...

I am going to call my regular vet today. They don't open until 4, so I will keep you guys posted. Charlie is such a little sweetie, still purrs and tries to be sweet even when he is feeling bad. I would pay anything I had, ultimately for him to feel better. I am just a college student and my...

thanks for the info everyone. No one had mentioned surgery to me, and I guess I didn't know that was an option. I will talk to the vet and find out more about it. I guess I could always pull out the old Visa and pay for it that way.

I hope someone here has some infor on this!! Charlie has been struggling with urinary crystals for some time now. I took him to the vet about a month ago and had him catherterized. He did ok for awhile, but my boyfriend had to take him on Monday again. We had to take him to a more expensive...

Hi Everyone!! I joined this site a few months ago, but have recently really been getting into it. I have two precious Gray Tabbies: Chester is 4 years old. He is soooo sweet!! He is kind of a scaredy-cat, and very loyal to my boyfriend and I . If we go into a room and shut the door, he will...
