Oh, I didn't read the whole post... my bad. Well... when u get back on monday take her to a different vet, it could really save her.

This happened to my cat and she had liver failure. There is a cure, if it's not too advanced. Unfortunately my cat's was and we had to put her to sleep. She is probably dehydrated... see if u can get to the vet for at least for a fluid shot.

I printed out a bunch of website pages for my mom, she read a couple words then got real agrivated.. and was like "I already told you...". She seemed pretty mad, I guess I pushed her too far. My vet told us with emily that the procedure was painful and recovery would be slow, but then she...

Leesali, thanks. But I KNOW what declawing is. I KNOW what it does to the cat. I KNOW it's cruel and wrong. But I can't do jack squat about it because I'm 14 and my parents won't hear it. I feel terrible.

Ok I've talked it over with mom. I told her about the caps... she said no. I told her about getting an older cat... she said no. I suggested we just not get a cat... and she said no too. She said it's better to have 2 cats, since Emily is getting lonely. And god only knows why it has to be a...

Thanks a bunch for your help! I will look for a pre-declawed cat then. We were looking at about 5 different shelters, and one of them spays/nueters and declaws the cats as soon as they come in. I think thats awesome to do with the spay/nueter thing... but the declaw thing is iffy. But I think...

We have decided to get a new little kitty to share our hearts and home with. The only thing is, my parents say it has to be declawed. I just joined this site and have been reading that a lot of the members are against declawing. I have never been for or against it... but now I guess I am kinda...

Wow, this lady has enough $ to feed her cats raw sirloin and organic vegetables, but not enough for a vet visit?

Oh my gosh! I never expected to get that many posts! I joined this site five days ago and already I'm seeingwhat a sweet and wondeful communtiy this is... just wish it could be under better circumstances. It's been 4 days since we put Star to sleep. My family has been really supportive. I...

Thanks so much everyone! Your posts made me cry, but warm tears filled with the knowledge that I'm doing whats best for my pookie-kins. Your posts have given me great information, as well as a great feeling that I'm doing whats right. Thanks again, I think you all have given me a new outlook on...

My cat Star,(7 years old) has just been diagnosed with kidney failure and we've made the desision to put her to sleep. We take her to the vet tomorrow at 4pm. I'm really scared, and I have a bunch of questions if anyone can help. It would be most appreciated. First, does it hurt the cat at...

It's over. The vet called today. She has Kidney failure. Theres a bunch of things the vet can do for it, but her BUN level is super high... it's in the 130's and the normal is supposed to be 50-60 (I think). So to do anything drastic might make her bounce back for a little while, but there is no...

I'm so excited I'm posting at 6:30 in the morning, right before school! Star ate! She ate! She went over to her dish at her own free will, and crunched THREE peices of cat food! I know it may not be a miricle just yet... but it was the first time she even recognized food since thursday! I don't...

Jeez thats SO sweet of you with all this talk of donations, but the truth is my parents would kill me if they even knew that I talked on chat boards. I wouldn't want to make Star start fighting now.. she's too weak. She just won't eat... I don't know why. Hopefully we'll find out tomorrow. But...

When I got home from school, Star seemed a lot worse. She can hardly walk now, and keeps falling and tripping. She used to be chubby and now her skin just hangs down and you can see her ribs. I got real scared. I broke down in front of my parents... complete accident... but I think it was the...
