Great to see info on various types of harnesses. We have an FIV cat so can't let him run free outside. I got him the Come With Me Kitty harness, which is apparently a roman style, to judge from how people have described them in this thread. However, I found out quickly that Pasha can get out...

Wow, thanks for all the ideas and advice. It never occurred to me that she might have somehow injured it herself, but I think that's a real possibility, given that she has these weird seizure-like episodes that the vets (including a neurologist) haven't been able to diagnose (for one thing, she...

Hi folks! I came home a couple of days ago to find that Cleopatra's huge fluffy tail was drooping; I think it happened all of a sudden, because I didn't notice anything unusual previously. She is a domestic longhair with a giant fluffy tail, 20-plus years old, bad kidney disease, went pretty...

Hello! Some very nice moderators suggested that I introduce myself here. I came here a few days ago seeking advice on my old kitty-cat who went blind suddenly last week (fortunately has now regained her sight!). I have three geriatric cats--Bear is about 14, Alexandra is 19 (with a supposedly...

Hi Rang & Kluchetta, thanks for sharing your experiences with me. Kluchetta, I'm sorry you lost your kitty. I agree, cats don't complain or "grieve" about their physical losses, they just keep on truckin'! Don't we wish we could always emulate them in that. Anyway, I am THRILLED today because...

Thank you Carol & everyone else. I am mystified about the temporary return of (some) sight--and it apparently happened again this morning--my son observed it. But it didn't last long. Not sure what is happening. In any case, she seems to be doing fine in the sense of taking her diuretic fine...

P.S. I tried to add this to my previous post, but the edit didn't seem to work--just wanted to say that although I re-set my time stamp to what I thought is the correct one, it is still 4 hours ahead--it's only 3:20 pm here (U.S. West Coast).

Thank you so much, you wonderful people!! This is exactly the kind of information and input I was looking for to help me decide what to do about our sweet Cleopatra. I got up this morning, read your very generous, kind, helpful responses, and decided that if there was a chance of saving her...

Hi! I'm new here. My 20 (?) year old cat went blind this afternoon, seemingly all of a sudden. She has kidney disease although we (especially my husband) has been bad about sticking to the prescription food. She is a champion moocher and he has a soft heart and feels since she is an old cat...
