    Cat sinus congestion

    How did you make out? I'm just reading this now, as I have a 16 year old kitty that seems to have some ongoing issues with her breathing. My vet did a complete blood work up in January, and it was then we found out she has a thyroid issue. She is on meds for this and all is going well with that...

    my senior cat sometimes sleeps in front of her water bowl

    My baby girl, Peanut, who is now 15 years old, has been sleeping in front of her water bowl at times, as of late.  She does not hover over it, but when I wake her up, she purrs and will sometimes take a few laps.  I think she has allergies and wonder if this could all be related. I know I should...

    Ear Ablation Surgery

    I'm not sure about your kitty, each one is different. All I can say is that my Peanut had her total ear ablation surgery in July 2013.  The months leading up to her final surgery (she had "attempted" polyp removal in March 2013, but failed due to the location and size of the polyp), were so...

    Cat w/ broken pelvis

    This exact thing happened to my folks cat this past week. He was missing for one week and returned with a broken hip/pelvis. We're not sure what is next, but we're seeing an othro doctor tomorrow for his opinion. He's only 7 and we don't want him to go to the rainbow bridge for many more years. ...

    Dental care and heart murmurs

    My mom has a beautiful bobtail cat (male) that is almost 6 years old. He was born with a heart murmur, and never outgrew it. It's actually graded high, which means we need to be very careful about what kind of treatment or even meds he receives.  He has had an ongoing gingivitis issue, that...

    Ear Ablation Surgery

    I'm sorry to hear about your kitty, and the issues he's having after his surgery. My Peanut had one ear ablation surgery on 7/30/13. She is still healing.  She still has a runny eye, buy my surgeon assures me that this is normal. When they do the ear ablation, they have to actually  move all the...

    Ear Ablation Surgery

    Hi Steve, My kitty just had one of her ear canals removed.  It was a week ago Tuesday. While it's a little different than your kitty, I can make a few suggestions considering I had the same concerns before I decided to go this route. First, I would ask about polyp removal only. I tried this...

    Ear Ablation Surgery

    Well, Peanut is now home after having a total ear ablation of her left ear.  I went to the animal hospital to visit on her 2nd night (they wouldn't let her come home, she had a spiked temperature) and was quite surprised at what she looked like.  I anticipated the same as the photos on the kitty...

    Ear Ablation Surgery

    My 11 year old kitty "Peanut" is scheduled to have a total ear canal ablation surgery on July 30th. I have been so afraid of the risks associated with this procedure, but after all she's been through, and continues to go through with chronic ear infections and oozing gunk from her ear, I opted...
