Thanks everyone. We're in Pinellas County and rabies is required. To be honest, this is the first year we've gotten them since they were kittens.

Does anybody continue their vaccinations and Revolution while your kitty is in renal failure? Or could it make it any worse? Thanks.

They are constantly ranked #1 in my county year after year for best veterinarian. Though he won't be doing the surgery, we will be consulting with the surgeon. She's only 5 years old. We're now wondering if this may have been caused in part by the pet food recall a couple of years ago. She...

My little girl has CRF and each of the last two months we've brought her in for an ultrasound, the vet has had to remove 60 cc's of fluid build-up that's putting pressure on the affected kidney. We can either keep doing this once a month or put her through surgery to basically put a hole in the...

Thank you all so much for the warm welcome. Pictures, did somebody say they like pictures here? We've had the kitties for almost a year now and we have about....1000 pictures! Is that sad or what?! I'll post some from time to time. Scott

Thanks for the replies. I've already done one video and I'll be sure to do one from a different angle.

Glad to see you got it to work. They are adorable. I love the tortoise shell. I am trying to convince my wife to get two more kitties! It's not working yet.
