    Nearing The End Here, Advice?

    Hey guys, so our cat was diagnosed as anemic 3 weeks or so ago and after mulitple vet visits it turns out she has multiple cancerous masses in her intestines. The prognosis was poor even with chemotherapy and surgeries. Being 13ish years old we are opting not to go that route. They gave us some...

    My Cat Has Anemia? What To Do?

    Thanks for the input. The vet is calling tomorrow to discuss our options. Our number 1 thing to do would be to test her stool. But being a mainly outdoor cat it is extremely hard to do since we don't know where she goes to the bathroom. We have seen her in the neighbor's yard before but also she...

    My Cat Has Anemia? What To Do?

    So our cats pcv levels last year were 40% and now they are at 31%. They suggested an ultrasound but I know already our cat will hate it tremendously.

    My Cat Has Anemia? What To Do?

    We feed her fancy feat (various flavors), and some party dry mix, and some T/D Dental treats... Could it be a dietary issue?

    My Cat Has Anemia? What To Do?

    This may be a bit of a long post. We took our indoor/outdoor cat to the vet the other day and her physical exam checked out perfectly however there has been quite a bit of weight loss. This past winter our cat got pretty fat at 15 pounds (was 13-14ish pounds about a year and a half ago) and ate...

    Cat And Stitches On Lip?

    It's been almost 3 days thus far and she doesn't seem bothered one bit. Fingers crossed this keeps up! She's acting completely normal now and is one happy cat. The incision itself is very very small.

    Cat And Stitches On Lip?

    Is there some sort of cream I could put over the stitches to help it heal faster and prevent itch? Either way my cat loves to scratch her face before sleeping. I have a very bad feeling about these stitches not lasting long argh!

    Cat And Stitches On Lip?

    I could give that a shot, I have never trimmed her nails before... She always sharpens them herself. Would she feel me clipping them if she was asleep?

    How To Tell If Cat Needs Teeth Pulled?

    Hey everyone. So our cat is 10-11 years old or so and she is going in for dental work on Wednesday. We have taken her into the vet a few times and they examined her teeth and it wasn't until only a month ago the vet had said she should have dental work done. Two vets before never said anything...

    Bump next to cat's mouth?

    Sort of uneasy because they will have to have her for awhile. She HATES being away from home for an extended period of time... Hates it even more getting there

    Bump next to cat's mouth?

    Well quick update, took her to the vet today. Very traumatizing for her, still trying to relax a full 8 hours after returning home. They took some bloodwork because they want to put her on anesthesia because she hasn't had dental work in over 9 years. So while they do that they want to do a...
