    After Today's Ultrasound and Meeting with the Vet...I've chosen to do the colon resection invasive s

    Siameselove03-  I forgot Nala was eating from the larger cans. Of course you would not give her two.  ;-)  I think you are wise taking her back in to the vet until things heal more.  It is hard to keep a kitty down when they have surgery. It is natural for them to jump, climb, etc.  Again, will...

    Siameselove03- like everyone else I am really happy that Nala is recovering fine .you mentioned in one of your other posts about wet food and that you were concerned about half in the morning and half at night.

    I hate to sound like a true dummy but how do I find the group post that you did? I'm rather new to this forum and not sure where to read it. I would love to read about Nala's results & progress.

    Cat Spraying Is Driving Us Crazy

    One of my kitties used to straddle the sides of the litterbox and P but usually missed the box .my vet suggested "premium choice" cat litter scoopable, no scent and it's not very expensive .because my cat didnt like the texture of tidy cat or many others .often it is a texture thing.
