    My Lucky

    Thank you for the information...now I'm a bit worried since she has hyperthyroidism (which I was going to mention to the specialist anyway and the new vet does know, but I was going to remind him). She has been on the medication for it for about 2 years now. The normal vet has her on medication...

    The Move

    Maybe after you get married (I'm under the assumption you both are going in that direction?), you can apply for a Permanant Residence Card (Same as a Green Card in the US)? They are right about the Visas not helping, the Visa is different than the Perm Residency Card. My husband & I took a...

    The Move

    Hi Icklemiss, I'm glad you understand the sort of culture shock I am going through...my husband does, but I don't think anyone else here understands. They are so used to how it is here. But at least I am enjoying the quiet..and not hearing my neighbors next door! My husband had to do the...

    The Move

    Miss Mew You are correct, the people here are very friendly, but then I have found that Canadians in general are a lot friendlier than in the US! I do like it here in Chatham very much, the quiet is just what I needed, I believe we are 12km from Downtown Chatham...which by the way I love! I...

    The Move

    We are in Chatham....it is taking some getting used to, I am used to getting somewhere in less than 20 minutes. Here the closest place to do our shopping (Costco, Micheals, PetSmart, Chapters, etc) is in Windsor; it takes us 45-50 minutes to get there. The most trouble I had was getting my...

    My Lucky...

    My husband & I discussed it last night and I am going to call our Vet today and get her in for another urine test. She is not going to be happy with me at all But hopefully she'll understand it is for her own health.... Too bad they can't talk to us to tell us what is wrong

    My Lucky...

    Good Morning All A reminder of Lucky's background: She sprays, she doesn't use the cat box. So when she does need to potty, we let her outside to do her business. Usually she is very good about letting us know when she wants out. She is mainly an outdoor cat. We let her sleep indoors most...

    My Lucky...

    Just received the call from my Vet! He says Lucky's blood & urine tests were good, no liver or kidney problems...which can result from the Thyroid problem. He wants me to continue giving her Thyroid meds as I am now (2.5mg twice a day) and wants to do another blood test in 6 months. Very...

    Potty training a new kitten! Need help!

    Hi All! I was wondering how long it does take for the kittens to totally adapt to litter boxes? Tiger & Lily *do* use the litter box for pooing, but I noticed they pee on the blanket/towels they sleep on and this morning I caught Tiger peeing on the livingroom carpet. The cat boxes get...

    I was wondering the same thing...Sunday, my husband & I adopted two 6 week old kittens named Tiger & Lily (male & female respectively) . I haven't seen Tiger use the litter box (but I'm sure he has, I just haven't seen it..), but I was in the room when Lily used the box. She did her job and...

    Peeing Question :(

    Thanks for the idea of the potting soil/litter! I'll try that! Diamond has had Urinary Tract Infection before he turned 1 year old (he is now 6 years old), so I remember the symptoms. So far I haven't seen the symptoms in Lucky, although Lucky is a female and Diamond is a male and from what I...

    Yowling....

    Wow...sounds alot like Lucky, but with Lucky, when we talk to her she does stop.. Out of curiosity, do you know how long she cries for? Lucky was doing it 3-4 times about 7-15 seconds a pop. But she would stop after that. I'll look about and see what I find out for you... Ana

    Yowling....

    You mentioned that your cat still yowled...guess what Lucky yowled this morning at 4:20am..so I let her in and she stopped... I just picked up the blood test results and found that she is taking the Feline Cardiac Support for her muscles, her CK (or CPK) is 3526; the norm for this is 64-440...
