This is how my almost 16 year old cat is. He lost her sister a few months back and my other cat whom he loved last week. He does not like my dog so Oreo, the cat, stays upstairs during the day and downstairs at night. He actually started this before they died, a bit and I figured out he wanted...
this is tmi, but my 16 year old Russian Blue who just passed , loved the bathroom. He somehow would hear me walking to the one down stairs and come running down. I would then have to cradle him like a baby while in there, or he would bite my ankles. He would just purr and purr.
I think that is a good weight. My cat is almost 16 and 12 pounds. He was around 14 when younger. Every single cat I have had had ended up very skinny in old age, so I tend to keep them a bit over. Not too much to get weight related diseases.He never liked snacks until 3 months ago and ate less...
I know. My cat would fight me for the water coming out of the faucet in my bathroom sink. We also had to tape the coffee machine down during the night, because he would open it and get the water out while we slept. He had bowls of water all over too. I thought he was just being himself but a...
You know, my dog had UTIs , so I started those cranberry supplements and thought there is no way they would work, but they have. The Same with bone and joint. She had arthritis in her tail and was missing hair. She started taking them and her hair grew back. I was very surprised. If I get...
I know, so sorry. My dog had a tumor on her face. the first young vet said it was a m cell tumor, so I was crying because those are bad. We scheduled the surgery for the next day.I had the main vet look at it snd she said it was not and was able to get cells out. Those came back that it was not...
I had a cat about 15 years ago. was not eating and got thin. My mom took him to the vet and she said severe kidney and had to be euthanized. She asked if we could bring her back in a couple of days so I could spend some time with him. Well during those two days he started eating and because...
Sounds like some kind of respiratory infection. Making the wet food is helping with her dehydration, if she was. I am really wondering if some cats get the virus and like humans , it gets better on its own.
This sounds like my cat from last week. Took him to the vet. he had kidney/thyroid. Came back from the blood test and looked drunk. They gave us a sedative that I gave to her 8 hours later and from there it went downhill. She also climbed in the bathtub with me. Took her to the emergency vet ...
So, sorry. Just to let you know, I think most caring pet parents always feel guilt. I have felt it for each one of our animals, going back to when I was a kid. Kidney disease is very hard on cats and they can decline in a blink of an eye.
