Meeko has really been through a lot, hasn't he. Sounds like you found the best vet you could find for him, and he's got Meeko on the right track now. Poor thing! But, also, if Meeko did live through a poisoning, and/or worms for all these years, then he is certainly a survivor! Sending tons...
I just caught this thread, Carolina. Poor Bugsy! I can't imagine having diarrhea that long, and with all his other problems too.
I hope you see improvement soon with the Tylan. At least he hasn't thrown up, so maybe it's a good sign that he's on the right track.
Sending good thoughts and...
Thanks Carolina, I'll check it out. Even though Pirate limps, it doesn't stop him from jumping up and down off furniture. Sigh..
My vet tells me that arthritis in cats isn't something that has been researched very extensively, and that it's only in recent history been acknowledged as a...
I haven't been on lately because I'm struggling with physical therapy and it zaps my energy. Sorry to be missing so many new friends I've made here, but once I do my job, get through physical therapy, and a few things around the house, I am just exhausted.
I just wanted to say hi, and wish...
Oh yes, the Phantom Pen Thief...we have one living here too, and her name is Sarah. She lives up to her nick name the Little Imp.
We find many missing pens, cat toys, pencils, etc. under our stove and fridge when DH pulls them out to clean.

I've had Pirate on cosequin for two months and I've not seen results. He is limping from arthritis in his front shoulder area.
I'd like to hear if you've had good results from something other than cosequin.
Thanks for your opinions!!
I've seen Sarah eat a spider. YUCK! We also get centipedes in the house often, but the cats don't eat them. They'll play with them until the centipede stops moving, or until I catch them doing it. The centipede is usually too injured to survive, and I'll kill it.
As a rule, I put bugs...
Fascinating thread! I'll be taking notice of tails now. I don't recall any ring tails. And, I've never seen a tail lay flat on the back, or a tail that curls under. Very interesting!!
Herman's tail breaks off in an angle halfway up, but I think it's just that it actually did break at some...
I just caught this thread about your daughter Lexi. I hope she is doing better now after the breathing treatment. How scary it must have been for you to see her like that!
Sending good vibes and prayers for Lexi's recovery!
I always have stories about Pirate because of the three cats I have, it seems that Pirate has the most colorful personality.
This is about Grace (passed away 07/09/10) and Pirate. Pirate was the only cat in the house when I took Grace in as a stray kitten. Pirate mothered her from the moment...
