I appreciate your advice Deanne! I needed the encouragement, especially since we're planning to have Fluffy hospitalized tomorrow.
When we went to pick up Fluffy's antibiotics this morning, the vet suggested that we have Fluffy stay with them for a week since he isn't eating, drinking or...
Fluffy has Pancreatitis!
He's starting his antibiotics today but I have NO clue how we're going to give him both that and the Albon (for coccidia). He didn't want to take his Albon last night and hardly wants to eat or drink.
The vet expects us to be able to squirt 5mls into his mouth daily...
Thanks Yorkie...I hope things are going well for you!
As you can see, lots of time has passed since my last post.... THEY'VE MET!
I'm at work so I'll go through all the details later but...it went MUCH better than I expected.
Unfortunately, however, Fluffy tested + for Coccidiosis He's on...
Quirky, why is the "dry food only diet" bad for them? I actually thought that it was great for preventing obesity and tooth decay as long as they are satisfied with it.
My 8 yr old male cat Fluffy eats dry food throughout the day and 1/2 can Fancy Feast at 6pm each evening. We used to give...
That's so unfortunate!
I've never dealt with a similar situation but maybe you could even try seperating the rescue cat again, this time try it for at least 2 weeks. Don't let her get anywhere near the others. On the second week, rub the cheeks of the female cat she fights with a towel as...
My male cat is sorta weird like that as well!
He loves attention from males but is sorta hesitant with the female humans!
I've had him since he was a kitty but it's never changed...
Good luck with the vet visit though...I'm sure you'll get some answers.
Day 4: I'm tempted to let them meet now
Things are going so well! Fluffy has remained calm and doesn't respond negatively when he hears Muffin in the room!
I brought the towel (which now has both of their scents rubbed onto it) back into the room with Muffin and she just sniffed it, looked up...
That's interesting Curly, thanks! I've always wondered what Fluffy was thinking when he'd nearly chip the paint on the walls routinely after meals.
He does it for quite a long time after he eats his favorite meals so...that makes lots of sense! I love cats
Day 3 and all is well
Thanks for your response...I wish you the best as well!
I let Muffin (the kitty) play on an old towel and even rubbed her face all over with it then put it in the living room to see what Fluffy's (old cat) response would be...
I was impressed! He sniffed...sniffed some...
My territorial 8yr old male cat; the New Guest, and the 4 month old calico. I'm a new member DESPERATE for advice!
Hello all and thanks in advance for welcoming me into your great community. Though Iâ€8482ve read most of the posts and articles related to introducing cats, I still have a few...
