Just thought of something else; it is always such a struggle to get her into the carrier when I take her to the vet. I have some Rescue Remedy, the pet version with no alcohol in it; I wondered if anyone knows if it would be safe to give that to her maybe tonight and tomorrow morning before I...
Thank you Denice. I have called the vet's office and I have asked them if I can bring her in tomorrow morning. I asked them what type of sedation they would give her, and she said it is up to the veterinarian, but it would either be a tranquilizer shot or gas anesthesia. I am very nervous...
Good morning all, I just have a question about the safety of having a cat sedated for a vet examination. My cat Posie is 5 1/2 years old, and gets very aggressive when I take her to the vet, and the last time I took her in for her rabies shot the vet and his assistant had a hard time...
My cat has always licked the plastic blinds on the windows. She is 3 1/2 years old and I adopted her when she was 4 months old. Every morning when I am feeding her, she runs to the window and licks the blinds. When I go to get her down from the window, she tries to get on the other side of the...
Thanks so much for your kind words and support RavenCorbie! I appreciate it very much. You are correct; I never wanted to choose anyone; I wanted us to all be able to live together peacefully and in harmony. Yes, he has apologized but he has not come to terms with the fact that I love her and...
Thanks sugarsandz,
I appreciate your kind words! I am sorry you have also had to deal with your sister's complaints about your pets. I guess I have such a hard time understanding that there are people who don't feel the same way I do about animals (kitties in particular).
He has agreed to...
Thanks stephanietx. I hope the meds are going to help too. I do have 2 Feliway diffusers plugged in, and I am going to check out more of the Spirit Essences. I did order the Stress Stopper and tried it for a few weeks; maybe I just didn't give it long enough. I think I am going to try it...
Thanks stephanietx,
I just came from the vet and they were not sure what these bumps are; Posie gets so stressed out at the vet that she will not let anyone touch her. Based on what she could see, she said it could be an allergic reaction or stress. She prescribed Prednisolone, 1 tablet a day...
Thanks CatByTheSea; your words are very kind and much appreciated! I hopefully will hear from the counseling office to set up my first assessment soon. I am not sure what their style of therapy is, so I guess I will just have to see what happens with it.
I feel so guilty because I am sure my...
